the movies have only gotten worse since Ridley tried reviving the franchise (IMO), so it's hard to be disappointed even if i want more Alien lore. --- Playing: Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice (PC), Cuphead (PC) (~);} - Get out the pans, don't just stand there dreamin' - {;(~) ... Copied to Clipboard!

I'm confused. There was a sequel and prequel planned. Next was the prequel, and then the sequel. Are they both cancelled?

Alien hasn't had a good movie since '86. Just let it die in peace. Kinda this. Alien was amazing Aliens was great. And then it kinda fell of a cliff. Instead of making bad movies trying to "recreate" the Alien magic, why not just "create" new great IP? You'll never feel more like a sucker than when you go in to see the latest Alien or DC or Star Wars movie and walk out wondering why you keep coming crawling back like an abused spouse. --- ^ Hey now that's completely unfair. https://imgtc.com/i/14JHfrt.jpg ...

They never seemed to struggle before and now the lame sequels keep bombing, they can't use the "IT's easy money" excuse.

If they did they'd stop going over and over to the same shit as you mentioned.

TheDarkCircle posted...UnfairRepresent posted..._Goggalor_ posted...Alien hasn't had a good movie since '86. Just let it die in peace. Exactly. Aliens worked so well because it built on a solid foundation, but ultimately felt like its own movie as well. More of an action movie than horror but it felt like a natural progression from the first. --- Now playing: Destroy All Humans 2 ... Copied to Clipboard!

No, there was another to be set in between Prometheus and Covenant. Awakening was supposed to be also after Prometheus and RS said the order would be Prometheus, Awakening, Covenant. And he also had another one ready, with even a 4th one. --- It all just disappears, doesn't it? Everything you are, gone in a moment, like breath on a mirror. - The Doctor ... Copied to Clipboard!

Who wants to see a new horror movie in space with a creepy alien... when you can just watch alien? So come up with an idea that isn't Alien. christ we've had stories for 10,000 years and you think the past 100 has reached the well of ideas? Do a movie where 13 guys on a spaceship are overweight and running out of oxygen and have to decide which get to live and which get to die or something And then someone goes crazy and every man for himself but who? And then it turns out to be a girl who was hiding in the closet or a dog or something. --- ^ Hey now that's completely unfair. https://imgtc.com/i/14JHfrt.jpg ... Copied to Clipboard!

Just came in to say Alien 3 is horrible shit, but not as bad as the abomination known as Resurrection I kinda prefer Resurrection Sure it's "worse" artistically but its trying to be silly and fun. 3 takes it self seriously and as a result is boring as well as bad. Ressurrection is bad but never boring. I'd rather watch it again than 3. It's like a well done steak vs a mediocre custard pie. Sure the steak might be "better" food but I'd rather take the Pie meself. --- ^ Hey now that's completely unfair. https://imgtc.com/i/14JHfrt.jpg ... Copied to Clipboard!

i don't get the Alien 3 hate. the director's cut is an enjoyable movie, IMO. i understand being terribly frustrated at how it screws with the ending of the second movie, but as a movie on it's own, i thought it was fine.
also Prometheus was medicore aside from expanding on the Alien lore. Covenant was just stupid all around and had no redeeming qualities other than being so bad it's funny at times (David literally kissing himself had the theater erupting in awkward laughter) --- Playing: Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice (PC), Cuphead (PC) (~);} - Get out the pans, don't just stand there dreamin' - {;(~) ...
