Glad you all are stoked for it! Been working on it for a few weeks now. It is NOT the entire plot of the film, I can't share that just yet. But I do share some new and juicy information that I think will help form more solid opinions on the project. I think some folks won't even think it's real with how farfetched it is, and that I'll be bullshitting.

I may or may not have a little video going up on Friday for ALIEN DAY, if not, by the end of the weekend. It might have some new bits to chew on. Sitting over 35 minutes at the moment.

Will post here when it's ready, but here's a link if you'd like to subscribe ahead of time.

Quote from: TheBATMAN on Aug 26, 2023, 11:08:37 AMBlomkamp tackling the origins of the xenomorph was always going to rile up Ridley Scott. It's no wonder this got scrapped.

I too hope the full story comes out one day. Even the film's title is said to be a spoiler. I'd heard whispers that the xeno outbreak was because the actual biomass of the captured derelict started contaminating the surrounding atmosphere and that the lead scientist behind the project was an android. Ripley and Hicks had to team up with mercenaries to get inside the secure compound where the derelict was held.

But no idea if any of that is true, could just be someone's guess based on the concept art.

I can confirm that this was not the plot of his film.

What else can you tell you?????? ::)

personally i thought the whole bit with the Hugh Jackman synthetic jumping on a bigger, better alien powersuit to fight Ripley in her own powersuit was a litle too much.

elysium 2.0

Quote from: ralfy on Aug 25, 2023, 05:20:23 AMJust come up with something to finish off that part of the storyline, with no need to retcon, etc.


My idea has always been - do a movie post Resurrection and post Covenant where Ripley 8 finds her way to a biomechanical planet where David has been living and continuing his work for whatever amount of years is necessary.

In addition to that have the Space Jockey from Alien be a one off entity who is a part of a circle of creators, each one distinctly biomechanical in their own way, each creating life and abnormal beings in their own section of the Universe.

so it was an "alternate ending" to the series being developed at the same time
as Ridley mounts his big plan to "expand" the series with his own ideas for the xeno's creation.

Absolutely incompatible projects, then. Why was Blomkamp's even allowed to be in preproduction for a while? Why wasn't this cancelled at the pitch stage? 

The alien series is so mismanaged lol absurd choices.
