Titan just sent me 11 images from inside the book. Some of these I haven't seen before. Such as the Ash head, or the what I assume to be A3 concept art (inside the wooden world and the 6 legged Alien).

This must have retrospective also includes brand new interviews with Ridley Scott, Sigourney Weaver, H.R. Giger, Jean-Pierre Jeunet, Jenette Goldstein

Is that in the press release? Because I don't think it's true.

[Corporal Hicks]

It's the Amazon blurb. I forgot about the Giger thing.

Sounds like Amazon are telling a little fib. Still, the book will probably have a lot of content to make up for it.

[Corporal Hicks]

Nope - that's in the press release too. Just checked.

It is possible that an unreleased Giger interview is included.  I once owned a set of the works of Mark Twain that was signed by him but published after his death. He had signed the flyleafs in anticipation of the edition being published.

Guess we'll see when it comes out.

[Corporal Hicks]

It's more due to some insight, Val has. Not sure if he can talk about it.

well, the Ash head is amongst the previously released continuity polaroids. Well at least the six limbed alien sketch is new or at least it's a piece of Alien Resurrection concept art sketch that ADI didn't release recently.

Looks as if more than one seller are making claims about it having a Giger interview
Unless someone can say he wasn't interviewed for this I suppose Giger could have been interviewed in the last year before his death or they found an old unpublished interview,.

well, some sort of photo from the blu-ray or DVD set rather than specifically continuity polaroids.

I asked around and there is a new Giger interview (hurrah!) but I can't say any more about it.

[wmmvrrvrrmm]

okay, that's settled!
