Perhaps the only Requiem item that is bright enough that it actually can be seen.

:laugh:  Good one!

But BOOM!

Garbage movie deserves to be viewed pitch black and on 'mute'.

This article states "300-page hardcover" book. Is it 300 pages?

I'm preferring Alien so far, but this is still very good.

At least you only have three weeks. :laugh: I've been dropping hints to my boyfriend that I want this book for Christmas--already treated myself to The Art of Alien: Isolation and am trying to watch my spending.

Got my copy. Haven't seen much new in the way of photos but looks a good solid read.

Hoping we get Alien 3...

Doesn't look like it.... https://paulsemel.com/exclusive-interview-the-making-of-aliens-writer-j-w-rinzler/

"Having written The Making Of Alien and The Making Of Aliens, the next logical step would be for you to do The Making Of Alien 3. Is that the plan?

Fox has told me they don't want to do a book on Alien 3. I don't know why."

I hope that was pre-Disney Fox, and now they might be open to. Seems silly that they'd go shy about how much of a mess that film was after we've already got CdL's documentaries.
