Neill Blomkamp's ALIEN is official!

[Python]

Well this thread is a mess... But I'm excited none the less about this.

I may be in the minority, but I'd like to see Prometheus continue also, there is room for both imo and I was looking forward to seeing more of the Engineers.

 

[abake]

Yep, I'd like to see Ridley deliver on the promise of Prometheus.

 

[Gruson]

Needs Hicks and Ripley together again!

 

[GasparZizou]

As much as I like A3 and AR, getting those 2 back together is a no brainer, I just don't know if Blomkamp is the right guy for the job, and I'm a fan.

 

[VintijDroidGutzz]

I actually like A:R too Gaspar.

Putting too much hope into all this though, isn't going to bode well in the end.. going by previous examples (generally speaking) - good intentions or otherwise.

 

[GasparZizou]

We're probably the only 2 people on these boards who like A:R

It's cheesy and but I love the tone, the visuals and the characters, it's really no different than many Alien/Predator comicbook stories.

Well, I only doubt Blomkamp visual approach and style, I don't know if it's the right one for Aliens, his style is very "independent concept artist sci-fi".

 

[VintijDroidGutzz]

Let me be clear though, I draw the line at those embarrassing AVP moofys.

 

[GasparZizou]

Me too, I just, can't stand those.

 

[VintijDroidGutzz]

From memory, there's maybe a handful of cool sequences in the four hours you have to sit through, but still.

They should've paid their electric bill before making those.

i like A:R, i loved the chicken leg xenos.
it went south real quick after that newborn shat made the scene....kinda left a bad taste in yer mouth.

 

[VintijDroidGutzz]

Yeah.. I enjoy A:R as a standalone picture, but it does nothing for the original concept.

That end sequence is bizarre, yet it begs the question: what if?

 

[fosing]

that newborn was a brainfart with poo particles. how the f did they allow that on screen?lolz

prometheus was visually stunning. thats. about. it.
that movie brought in more plotholes than answers.lolz

 

[GasparZizou]

I liked the newborn, the whole concept was horrific.

And he was freaking scary as hell to fight in the game

 

[Deckard]

how the f did they allow that on screen?lolz

Brain herpes sounds like a solid guess.

 

[Unclechopchop]

AR alien is by far the best designed alien. But the dog alien will always be my favorite......for some reason I can't figure out myself

 

[GasparZizou]

I don't know, I think my favorite is still Giger's original from the 1st movie.

2. would be the Dog Alien.
3. A:R Warrior Alien.
4. Aliens Warrior Alien.

 

[Deckard]

When Ripley is making out with her own retarded alien baby, you know you ran out of ideas.

 

[GasparZizou]

It's just a mom tenderly headbutting her baby, that's normal.

Well, that pic does make it look like some Game of Thrones ****

 

[VintijDroidGutzz]

It's not Ripley though.......

"Does that compute, or do I have to draw you a schematic?"
