Ward's will always hold a special place in my heart. If nothing else, for scaring me into checking the damn toilet.

Sam Kieth. Jokes aside, I would love to see any alternate take on my favorite moments in the series.

Nah, save his ass for Red's script.The most batshit Alien thing I've ever read, by a country mile.Quote from: KiramidHead on Jan 29, 2019, 10:51:17 PMTwohy's script could use a reworked third act if they adapt it. Twohy's is my favourite of the unmade screenplays, but there's no denying the final act is a total anticlimax.

Sadly after that I thought the script ran out of steam a bit. The final showdown with the Newbreed in particular was over before it even began.
