The Martian & Blade Runner 2 Before Prometheus 2?

[Kimarhi]

There will be another Prometheus.  I just hope it is much better than the original.


I also hold out hope that Prometheus will have a cut like Alien 3's SE.

Everybody should give up hope for a jockey revisit, Giger is gone and Ridley isnt up to it by himself.

Not counting stuff reused from earlier films, Giger actually didn't do much at all on Prometheus, just a few murals.

Steven Messing did the murals that appear in the film. Giger just did a few sketches of versions of set design, the Deacon, Trilobite and other creatures...

Yes but he brought us the first jockey and Derelict..

Everyone and their dog knew Ripley's sacrifice was only ever going to be a temporary stalling effort. Another sequel was inevitable.

It was a spinoff in my opinion. A what if and nothing more. On the Prometheus subject, it needs to be given to someone else to free up Ridley for BR 2.

You consider 'Alien Resurrection' to be a spin-off and not a proper sequel?

Any one else still hoping that Guillermo del Toro will suddenly come in and take the sequel on and make it a real haunted nightmare everyone wants to see?

Or he can just make At the Mountains of Madness, the real haunted nightmare everyone wants to see.

[Kimarhi]

Del Toro is more fantasy monster than horror monster though

Yes, but the ending... will it be something like the Bair Witch Project ending?

A slower and redundant version of Prometheus.

[Kimarhi]

something that makes it more sensical and straightforward. 


I think the SE is the best extended/alternate cut of all the Alien movies.


Slower and redundant to me would be the Aliens SE.

  Big mistake , Prometheus should be first . It has two years since the release of Prometheus , if not done
ASAP . it will end up in the too hard basket and then happens it will never be made .

[Nightmare Asylum]

As opposed to the 32 years its been since Blade Runner?

The too hard basket was deep.

Aliens was seven years after Alien.

The difference these days is that the main cast usually sign a contract for a two or three picture deal even if there isn't yet any sequels planned at that point in time. If the film does very well the main actors are then contractually obliged to return when the sequel/s are green-lit.

However, the contract usually expires after a set amount of time, typically three years. This can sometimes make it a bit harder to get the original cast back if you dally too long. In the case of Prometheus it's just Rapace and Fassbender but as these two actors are obviously very popular and busy it could possibly cause a delay in getting the sequel made.
