[The Eighth Passenger]

Whatever issues people may have had with the premise, I'm sure we would have seen some awesome sci-fi hardware in this film.

I posted some Alien 3 concept art from Ellingson in the "Best non-alien pictures" thread as well.

Agreed. To be honest, I would have been very curious to see what Blomkamp's idea was before he had his talk with Sigourney that resulted in this morphing into an alternate Alien 3.

Why does it have wheels?

Why does it have wheels?

Why wouldn't it? Most aircraft, including vertical take-offs, have wheels.

'Cos drop ships are spaceships based on helicopters.

Looks a bit hokey to be honest.  An original design would've been better.

I love seeing stuff like this, Wasn’t there something similar in ACM that was carrying the queen and got knocked down by the marines?

It seems that you find fault with this only because you are not happy to see something new about Alien 5. 

[SM]

Thanks for explaining why I find fault.

I mean I could've done it myself and- oh wait.  I did.

I like the cargo variants but I second the misgivings about the wheels.

[Corporal Hicks]

It's likely just a case of taking something modern and incorporating it, but it's just not seeming right. Like the rails in the Pulse Rifle.

[Red Harvest]

Neil Blomkamp’s Alien 5 will finally reborn and for the screen.

[AVP-CAPCOM]

'Cos drop ships are spaceships based on helicopters.

Helicopters have wheels too.
