This took a turn!   :laugh:

See what you started? I kid! Ideas along those lines have been in the back of my brain for a very long time. But what I imagine could never happen, and particularly not with Disney owning everything. I could probably make it into a fan project like what you've done with Predator. That will be fun for me until the cease and desist arrives. >_>

Now that would be a fun read!  :)

It could be! I have to admit, as it stands, mine is primarily an Alien/SW story with Engineers. I know the Predators can/should be involved, but I haven't got to them. When the time comes, I would gladly accept collaboration on that from someone with great love for the Predator. You know, if it turns out anyone is interested. That would be really cool! But not there yet.

Now, Immortan Jonesy, don't think I've missed your colorful and entertaining protest. But let me say this: Nothing I or anyone else is doing is any threat to what you love. It's just some of us imagine other possibilities and want to explore them. Okay?

That's hilarious, but not what I had in mind.

Or perhaps integrated in Star Wars universe, where the Alien becomes a Sith machination and the Predators are a race of bounty hunters from the Galactic Rim...

It all makes sense now !

Spoiler

If I'd have to choose, I'd rather choose to sacrifice Alien to Star Wars than to Marvel

Thanks for that! :) I know a lot of people might roll their eyes or bristle at the thought, but properly handled... The results could be a lot of fun!

In a perfect world, we wouldn't see any universe integration.

Spoiler
Even Alien vs Predator would go.

All things cinematic projects of ALIENS is wishful thinking at this point, especially as Disney has made no announcements.

Perhaps. But you really want to hear them announcing something? I mean, they can come and say:

"Dear fans (Marvel fans)...

It is a pleasure for us to announce that two new purchases join our beloved superhero family. Their universe does not interest us, so we prefer to take these two monsters to play with them in our favorite sandbox. You know, the one that it's actually profitable according to our most optimistics standards as a megacorporation".


Now you can expect superheroes flicks that often featured Aliens and Predators.  :-X

With Hollywood imploding right now, AAA movies forced into a direct-to-home box office experiment gone wrong with millions (billions?) in revenue lost in the process. Even Sony/MGM with No Time To Die (ironic name) was toying with the idea of home streaming- but wanted of $660 million upfront as collateral rather than risk the royalties model.Then CineWorld going bust in the UK as part of the same Bond delay debacle. All things cinematic ALIENS getting greelit anytime soon, is wishful thinking at this point. Especially as Disney has made no announcements and is also recoiling from the failure of tentpole Mulan (2020).

True we might look back in 10 years from now and we've written off the Xenomorph too many times before only for it to bounce back with egg on,some of, our faces.

Like the videogame crash of the early 1980s look at where we're at now, it's been booming the past 30 years! Hopefully cinema and ALIENS will return.
Don't count on netflix though, I heard even they are experience turbulent times with controversies and reports of subscription cancellations.
Some people were blaming "that french underage movie" but given the timing and covid sounds like an excuse with a get out clause to save cash on a 12 month lock in contract, while being furloughed.

Fun listen fellas! Looking to 2021 we already know we have 2 new Alien novels coming from Titan and hopefully that trend continues as I've really enjoyed consistently reading new A/P novels. Comics wise I'm confident that Marvel will give us at least one Aliens and one Predator series and potentially a crossover per year. Games: the new MMO hopefully releases next year and hopefully Hunting Grounds gets a single player mode but other than that I'm unsure if we'll see anything new on the game side of things for some time after that. I really hope the AVP anime gets green lit in the near future. Other than that I hope to see Alien or Predator get an 8-10 episode live action series in the near future. Regardless next year already looks promising so let's hope that bodes well for the future under Disney.

Same here. A series is really what I'd like to see in the future, for both franchises. For Predators, something maybe along the same line as "Predators", with perhaps a condensed Lost-like spin, with the objective being (like the movie) to return home. I think that could have potential.

I haven't listened to the podcast yet, but I do sense that Alien in particular has a bright future in the coming year  :)

That would indeed be a cool concept for a Predator series! I've said it before but something like "Band of Brothers" meets Predator would be something I'd like to see!
