Without him we wouldn't be here today.
Without him Alien wouldn't be a sci-fi horror classic
Without him James Cameron wouldn't have directed one of the best sequels ever made
Without him Alien 3 wouldn't have turned out the way it did - the way many fans love it for nowadays
And he was opposed to making Resurrection
I love his low voice
What a man

QuoteThe drama of my ALIEN docs would've been weakened without his voice
Lauzurika knows what he's talking about
Oh my God rest in peace...
The series owes him a debt.
Rest in peace, David. All the drama making Alien aside, without him we wouldn't have the series, it's that simple. He is one of the fathers of the franchise, and he'll be missed.
That was a bit unexpected, no words... :'(
He was attached to that recent Alien 5 script so I figured he was doing alright.
RiP David Giler, this franchise would be vastly different without your work.
RIP. Like many said rightfully, we wouldn't be here without him.
Very sad news. We lost an incredibly important cog in this Alien machine. No David. No Alien.
RIP Mr Giler. Thinking of his family and loved ones.
Rest in peace David Giler
Thats an absolute and awful shocker. So sad. So many had left already :(
That's a shame. WhiskeyBrewer and I had some laughs at his expense on the podcast, but Giler was genuinely talented.
He was primarily involved in the making of the first 3 films, with Resurrection and the two Alien vs Predator weren't involved paid off and given producer credits, this applied to Gordon Carroll before his passing in 2005. There some more involvement with Giler and Walter with Ridley Scott on the prequel, if I'm mistaken correct me, dunno if the script he and Walter came out with for their Alien V would be utilize, never the less an amazing contributer to this series is no longer with us and is now amoung the stars.
Always wanted David Giler and Walter Hill to write one more film.
I doubt anything will ever come of that "Alien 5" concept that Hill and Giler wrote a 50 page treatment for (Sigourney Weaver didn't even read it, last I heard), but it would be neat if that concept hit online at some point, at the very least, so we could see what their ideas for the film were.
This is so sad. Another lighting of the perfect storm. Rest in peace :'(
Rest in peace indeed. Such saddening news.
I was just watching him on alien anthology last night. RIP thanks for contributing to my childhood
I take it nobody read their last Alien story then.
I know I don't have it, at least.

I'm sorry if I'm derailing the thread, but I used to think similarly about SM. I didn't have a special theory, but I came to think that he was a famous person related to Alien, who was posting anonymously in AVPGalaxy :laugh:
#F**kGiler shall be retired from this point on.
It was always said in jest about how i felt his attitude was in the Alien Anthology Documentaries. But without that attitude certain things wouldnt have gotten done for sure.
But this was a shock when Kiramidhead told me. Damn
Give Godspeed,David Giler.He also wrote The Parallax View-Fantastic 70's Conspiracy Film with one of Warren Beatty's Best Performances.God Bless & Rest In Peace Mr. David Giler:)
