I know! It's ridiculous, imagine studio heads taking those sorts of chances today, he also put himself on the line to make those things happen aswell.
Jeeze man who's left now besides Ridley Scott and Weaver who were involved in Alien that have passed on?
Sad to hear btw, someone we need in today's hollywood, RIP...
Rest in peace, sir. You are a legend.

Ron Shusett and Chris Foss are both still with us as well.
Jon Sorensen(active on here),Brian Johnson & one of my favorite special effects guys Martin Bower ( I so enjoy his dvd commentary)
Oh nooo, more bad news. I know nowadays more people are losing lives daily, but Alan's passing is still a very saddening news. He had his years and lived a full life though, and Star Wars, Blade Runner and Alien fans will be forever grateful to him.
