I am still not sure I want an alien 3.2. and I am not sure if I want to have Newt and Hicks returning at all. I mean, when I watch Aliens, I always get depressed when I think Hicks and Newt will never wake up again. Despite the fact that Hicks will- since Aliens Colonial Marines is Canon. so I can see Hicks coming back but...
For Alien 3.2 to have Ripley in it, they still have to mess around with Alien 3. And althoug the movie depresses me, I still love it! Alien3 - especially the extended cut- is a great movie with a lot of unique ideas, characters and a distinct style and atmosphere. What I love about Alien as a whole- the movies are distinct in there own way- while still being bad ass and the Aliens always emit there own ultimate way of horror that has never been beaten by anything in the universe.
So- do I want an aliens 2.0- yes, I confess Aliens is my favorite. But I don`t want it to replace Alien 3 and 4. I love Alien Resurrection as well! Its strange humor, crazy perspectives, the grotesque carnage, the grotesque eroticism between Ripley and the Aliens, and Ripley and Call, the pictures in the movie tell there own story. Although there the typical Joss Whedon jokes in it- somehow it all clicks to paint a picture of an out of bounds borderline crazy future which is really different then the 200 years before it.
Also the remnants of Newts memories within Ripley 8, and her sacrifising her daughter (the newborn) yet again, the deep loss, the horror she as a mother had to suffer through time and time again, all make this movie so relatable through its tragic.
So WHY is there no post Alien Resurrection movie??? Call it Alien Resurrection 2!
Hell make Ripley 8 the new Alien Queen! She has Alien genes right??? She could mutate! You could use some great Giger Art style- make a mix of species and alien- and make her rebirth a new breed of aliens! Maybe Ripley Reproductive changed too? So first Call helps Ripley escape from the Military, but when Ripley starts mutating, Call calls for help! So they show up with the frozen post colonial Marines Hicks, and to hell, if they want too they can clone Newt to make the Alien Queen Ripley stagger, and then they KILL her! But then, in the last moment, the engineers show up and take Ripley away. they take her back to there homeplanet. Where she finally reunites with Amanda, who for some reason ends up there during the events of Alien Isolation 2 which I want so bad. So thats the Alien 5 I want.
And in Alien 6 the crew of the Prometheus sequels returns to earth and finds it destroyed by Ripley 8s new breed. Yet they somehow have some engineer technology, and they have there own tamed Alien sub species with them. Also they infect Call with that Ooze which made that android in Fire and Stone mutate. And then an epic grotesque battle for earth begins- which will be the new premise for AvP3.
