If it doesn't include a shout-out to both "Aliens: Reapers" and "Aliens: Taste", it has failed as a product.

I'll be genuinely disappointed if there isn't. What a completely random and unexpected book. Not unusual though, there's quite a few geeky cookbooks out there. Looks like Star Wars even has one.

There better be cornbread.

Awesome! First thing that came to mind was cornbread  ;D

It's not very good though.

Hope there's Golic's brekky cereal and Johner's home brew.

Ah, just when you forgot postmodernity was the real-life Force that binds us and penetrates us. And finally, Titan brings a woman into the fold...for a cookbook!  :laugh: Nice.

Someone's last meal at Hadley's Hope was a donut.  :-X

This is a cash grab.

Maybe Big Chap was interested in getting Jonesy out of the box only because Xenos find cats to be very tasty ? Like marshmallow or something
Title: Re: Alien: The Official Cookbook

Cats are xeno-snacks?  :o

I don't get it, surely the dictionary definition of cash grab :O
slapping the Alien name on something you can put on your shelf is one thing. making a book like this with a topic totally not compatible with the franchise is another

So?

Hopfully they add in those wonderful looking alien inspired alchohol beverages they had 2 years ago at the alien day festival? Not possitive, but those drinks were cool.
Maybe some chestburster meatloaf lmfao

We need Ripley's hot chocolate and Parker's Morning Brew in this.

All this cheapens the brand. I wish Disney/20th Century Studios had someone in charge of merchandising who would ensure that their franchises were respected and protected.

There have been glow in the dark alien toys aimed at children since 1979.

This cheapens nothing.

If it doesn't include the tagline,

'The food ain't that bad'

Then the marketing team should be sent to the Phantom Zone

Anyone know if this is still happening? The article said November 10th but that is less than 3 months away and it is not even available for pre-order on Amazon yet. In fact I find no mention of this book anywhere on the internet except for AVPGalaxy. A google search just brings me here.

I kind of hate "messing" with food. For example the greasy cooked turkey facehugger image that has been rotating in FB for years is totally disgusting to me.
Maybe this book has a bit more "good taste" stuff.
