Alien 5 / Re: Alien V - Facts and Rumors...
Last post by Imbrie - Today at 09:37:59 PMReally informative video, Mike's Monsters.
Must say that with all that is known about Blomkamp's movie, I'm not mourning the loss of it not being made. I really am not keen on genetic experimentation in movies in general and it's mostly for this reason that I could do without his take on Alien
Saying that, I do feel for the guy as he obviously put a lot of work and, apparently, money into the project and it looks like he was given the absolute runaround by Fox.

Last post by SiL - Today at 09:29:54 PMQuote from: gold on Today at 07:48:00 PMThere is a reason the M41A (lower picture) is an icon of SciFi history and the upper picture from Resurrection was forgotten.The reason is the M41-A was named and given multiple loving closeups and a walkthrough of its use and features in the film. Its design is only a small part of why it stuck so well in people's minds.
After all, if it was just the design, you wouldn't have thought to ask
Quote from: gold on Today at 10:09:09 AMCan you name any weapon from A3,Since it's the same weapon, very slightly modified.

Last post by St_Eddie - Today at 09:25:17 PMQuote from: [cancerblack] on Today at 08:37:13 PMSeems like a refusal to accept notes/collaborate might have been the key issue here so...
Which is quite something coming from a director whom claims to be "free of ego".

So f**king good. Not the ending I was expecting, though.

Last post by TheDerelict - Today at 09:03:01 PMThe M41A pulse rifle is cool and all, but resurrection has a gun in a thermos. A GUN...in a thermos. Iconic. 😎

Yup; I mean aesthetically she is literally Kenner Ripley. 😂

Last post by [cancerblack] - Today at 08:48:18 PMQuote from: Slutty Badger on Today at 08:43:45 PMAre you suggesting people mainly like Aliens for the weapons?
Because I can think of a buttload of better reasons.
Think he just wants to spit bad takes then ignore rebuttals (note the sig text).
