Alien 5 / Re: Alien V - Facts and Rumors...

Last post by GrimmVision - Today at 02:31:57 AM

I never want to sympathize with the Alien. If we ever get to that point in the films, the horror these creatures stir within my mind would be rendered null. Resurrection almost went there with the Newborn.

I absolutely appreciate the callback to original ideas by O'Bannon but I do think that Ridley relocating the ideas of a society with art and architecture to the Engineers was the better move. While it expands on old ideas being brought back and showcased within new films, it also keeps the scary, unknowable horror of the Alien.

I would, however, love to see Blomkamp's script realized through an audio drama, comic, or novelization!

I'd read it as a novel or comic.

Aye, same.

Preferably with real art, if they go the comic route.

Sal Larroca then?

I think Sal is the quality the idea deserves.

there's room for Woman in the Dark in such a demented fan fiction-like narrative!

Talk about dodging a bullet. Not a fan of what happened in Covenant, but you can chalk that to David creating a subspecies of the Xeno from Engineer blueprints, but what Neil wanted to...oh man. Nope.

Twin Peaks: The Return E3-4

Some of these effects are pretty rough, good thing the overall package is otherwise great. Also, this show has the most random collection of cameos ever. I completely forgot about Meg Foster showing up.

A film set in the future that had the tone of the escape sequence from The Predator would have my interest.

i like the idea of the alien's having culture and even being able to make art

but i'd prefer it to be really really primitive -
Like that bit in Gibson's Alien 3 where Hicks comes across an alien barricade made out of human corpses and hive gunk displayed in a weirdly artful fashion.

Yeah, I like that idea can easily fit with alien labyrinth hive scene

Ha, I actually bought a copy of that card a couple months back. Was at a card show and they had some loose singles from the original Alien set (which I only have a handful of cards from, despite having a complete Alien: Legacy base set and a near complete Alien 3 set). I've always been super impressed/captivated by the imagery on display on that card, every time I've seen it online, so I had to snatch it the second I saw one in person.

I think directors and writers should stop making shitty scripts with the idea of revolutionizing the franchise and explaining things and instead work with what they already had.
