Makes me wonder if something Alien-related, a big announcement is coming July.

Could be something more, but I'm going to keep expectations in check and tell me the date was shifted just to align this closer to the limited theatrical run of the film in October.

Perhaps, it also sorta coincides with the Isolation Novelisation.

Preview pages are up at Amazon. Does look really nice.

Can't wait to get this one in the post!
But I gotta wait to 23 July!!

The Old One · **Reply #82 on: Mar 05, 2019, 07:28:14 AM**

New photo(s)!

Corporal Hicks · **Reply #83 on: Mar 05, 2019, 08:59:56 AM**

Which, Old One? Only one I don't recognize is that different angle on Dallas, Brett and Parker.

The Old One · **Reply #84 on: Mar 05, 2019, 10:16:35 AM**

Exactly. lol

Now I'm worried most of the images in this book will have already been seen before (DVD & Blu-ray photo galleries).

XenoHunter99 · **Reply #86 on: Mar 05, 2019, 01:21:18 PM**

I don't spend any time in DVD or blu-ray photo galleries. I like art and making of books. This should be good.

Corporal Hicks · **Reply #87 on: Mar 05, 2019, 05:12:19 PM**

That's quite a few in the home release galleries that just don't get seen much online so should be a reasonable treat for a lot.

The Old One · **Reply #88 on: Mar 05, 2019, 06:01:32 PM**

Indeed!

I recognise so many of these quotes. Giger's "I am on the Alien trip!" is not a reference to LSD per se; he was happy with the production (that week). Holm's quotes are from his autobiography. Giger's from his diary. Rinzler also misidentifies a quote from W.H. Auden. And some quotes from Hill's interview in Back Story IV, etc. Ridley's quotes seem new.

I'd love to see his other sources.
