"better" version of the movie

[slaysaliens]

Hey I did something really worth while in my spare time,  I took the unrated version and loaded it in some editing software on my mac and changed the predator vision to the blue/red thermal and added the right sound fx for that vision mode.  I also added the Aliens/AVPR elephant/peacock sound fx when an alien dies.  I just watched it and it actually makes the movie more like the originals and pretty fun to watch!

anyway, nothing extremely amazing but i thought it was worth mentioning

[Reborn]

cool, for a first post.

No it's not legal because you don't have a license to redistribute it.

However, I can't imagine any important caring if you uploaded it on to Youtube or something.

Sound effects don't make a movie better or worse.

[SM]

They can help.

[War Wager]

They can, but say Kane's Son used the vocals from the A:R Aliens, is that going to make the movie worse?

[Private Hudson]

Yes, it would indeed.

[War Wager]

Nay.

[SiL]

Yay, actually.

The creepy biomech sounds the original Alien made really fit well with the biomechanical aesthetic of the overall design. Throwing in dinosaur roars would not have worked, and you'd ruin any scene where the Alien made a sound.

[War Wager]

It wouldn't have lowered my rating to 5/5 to 4/5 for sure.

[SiL]

Cue someone ripping the scenes from ALIEN and overlaying the AR sounds, then uploading the video to YouTube.

...Anyone?

[War Wager]

It wouldn't suit it obviously, it was just an example.

[Parler]

Sounds pretty cool.

[Private Hudson]

What? The A:R sounds over the real alien sounds? You crazy.
