Alien Prequel Confirmed

[Samurai Goomba]

Whilst i have no doubt this film will suck hard its a great relief that the rumours of Alien being remade arnt true.

Well, so far the Alien series has been nothing but good (in my opinion).

Alien 3 was my favorite.

 

[fix-the-spade]

Ha, I just watched Back to the Future Part II (creator of the four rules).

But you must admit that despite the variety of quality and production teams among the Alien and Predator movies that the universe has remained remarkably consistent in continuity.

Have they? I think the Predator and Alien have between them attacked Earth a total of four times in 'the present day' now, with people managing to survive all four. One if which involved massacering most of an American town.

You'd think by the time of the Alien/s films such a significant event would be remembered. It being first contact and it being hostile. Even the US government wouldn't be abe to cover up nuking a town infested by aliens, not least because of hundreds of soldiers fekked up war stories...

Yet apparently by the time of Alien/s nothing is known. Or maybe nothing is admitted to (cue Twilight zone music).

 

[Osherai]

Question though, does the whole implantation of the aliens work on just women or men as well?

Ok.. what?!?! Have you EVER seen an Alien film? In 1 and 2 males are the first to be impregnated (nobody laugh) 3 its a dog and 4 is ripley being cloned by USM with the queen still residing in her and it all going tits up from there.

*I'm making a prediction, the plot twist is Humans created the Xenomorphs...

And thats as preposerous as sticking your tongue in a toaster.

The Predators have been using the Aliens as game for centuries before Humans could grasp the idea of a toilet, nevermind interstellar travel. Unless they introduce time travel into the franchise...at which point I will lose faith in humanity and hang myself.

I direct you to this:

Theyll find a way. You're forgetting the four plot devices of shitty movies.

Fate, Destiny, Alternate Dimensions and Time Travel.

Be afraid.

Reading the negative comments, one thought springs to mind.
Wait... how would a new movie taint the old ones? Can't you just... you know... watch the old ones again and they still be good?
Seriously. Just a new movie. Stop complaining about it, it will simply be judged on its own merits if its been a while.

No. Cause people that never seen Alien, will likely to see this one and if it turns out to be the worst thing ever, people will just declare Alien=Shit.

Just like they doing with the whole Aliens versus Predator franchise.

Common knowledge.

Also theres no reason to bring back Alien.

 

[Osherai]

Be afraid.

Noo, they couldn't do that =[ please no.
Set fire to the ocean, elimate all the producers of deoderant, rape a royal I don't care just don't piss all over Alien =[=[=[

 

[Travdelosmuertos]

just like the terminator films, there is absolutely no reason this series should have any more films. ressurection was one step too far, and making yet another film is just gonna be twisting the knife. really, what is the point in this being made?

Resurrection was god awful. 90s film-making trash. Then again, the franchise hit its peak with Aliens and just went downhill from there. The one thing that makes me excited for the prequel is that Ridley Scott's company is involved and that the secret of the jockey is revealed.

*shivers* at that point I will lose all faith in cinema. If they screw up Alien then they shall be hunted down and will PAY. You DO NOT fuck with my first movie; yea thats right, Alien was the first movie I ever watched....and i was 6, how fucked is that.

1.) Who the hell hasn't seen Alien
2.) Those types of people are fucking stupid
3.) At the end of the day, its just entertainment
4.) In the end, only the fanboys will see it anyway.
5.) The people will hear the fanboys talk about how good the originals were, and see those which is what happened to me with Star Wars, Indiana Jones, and Terminator.

Here.

Still haven't seen a whole Aliens film, my attention span wasn't long enough to get anywhere in the first one. I only ever catch the second half of the one with the Guy from CSI, and I saw the end of one were and alien got sucked out a pea sized hole into space.

 

[KingPiccolOwned]

Awesommmmme. Also, considering that the brother of the guy who made the original Aliens is going to be doing this, I have great confidence that he will not utterly destroy his own brothers works.

Well, he is at least being exposed to us. He shall learn soon enough.

Really? I thought that was the worst one, mainly due to the plot holes and lousy character development... though it did have the most awesome ending of all the films.

I'm tired of franchises being ressurected. What we need is new ideas or at least a new face of the idea. Besides those face raping aliens is just disgusting especially the end result. Question though, does the whole implantation of the aliens work on just women or men as well?

The huggers work on you regardless of sex: see Alien Ressurection, where a male scientist got the chest-bursting suprise.

Also, I'm getting irked with all these remakes. While it's cool seeing some nostalgia love, can't we get some new movies out there?

*starts measuring himself for a noose* oh god why must the greats of my childhood whore themselves out constantly...

Because there are still suckers out there willing to pay for it. Same reason every other aging movie franchise gets unneeded sequels/remakes/reboots. The ironic thing is that most of us who complain about this movie getting made will ultimately go see it anyway. I probably will....er, well...I'll at least save it to my Netflix queue.

 

[Nazulu]

Please don't butcher the Alien legacy with another horrible film. My heart can't take it anymore.

 

[TsunamiWombat]

Alien: Omg this is awesome!

Aliens 2: Hey this is fun!

Alien 3: Uhh...

Alien 4: OH GOD WHAT?

COMING SOON!

Alien 5: ...*hung self in the back*

 

[Pigeon_Grenade]

it doesent need a prequel, period
