Neill Blomkamp's ALIEN is official!

[spindrift]

Apparently ALIEN 5 won't happen till after Prometheus 2??? That's what is being reported....so don't get excited folks, really...

 

[GasparZizou]

I don't know if I want this to happen anymore, not in Blomkamp's hands, unless they get a decent writer and keep Die Antwoord far far away from the project

 

[YankeesFanboy]

May the Prometheus movies continue to explore the origins of the alien species and may Blomkamp's movie explore where it's headed.

They'd really want to get on with it, Sigourney and Biehn aren't getting younger.

Sorry I really enjoyed Lost In Space and Oldman was a great Smith- why this movie is attacked so much is beyond me- it's briliant compared to it's source material, very much entertaining and great to watch....

Knocking the OG show? How dare you sir.

 

[Rorywan]

I bet this is pretty shakie after chappie.

there's always cgi

there's always cgi

No thanks.

It's interesting; NB's latest film is called 'Chappie'.. & they nicknamed the OG ALIEN creature the 'Big Chap'.

Hmm.

Hmm.

That can only mean one thing. Chappie = Crappy so Alien 5 = Big Crap

Yup, sadly you're most likely right.

 

[VintijDroidGutzz]

I'm just imagining that freaky South African electro spoof pop duo being in ALIEN5.

No thanks.

Out of curiosity I looked up Roger Ebert's old review. Man, I miss that guy.

“Lost in Space” is a dim-witted shoot-'em-up based on the old (I hesitate to say “classic”) TV series. It's got cheesy special effects, a muddy visual look, and characters who say obvious things in obvious ways. If it outgrosses the brilliant “Dark City,” the previous sci-fi film from the same studio, then audiences must have lost their will to be entertained.

 

[Rorywan]

I saw Chappie last night, unfortunately I must report the reviews are correct. I sat watching this mess in a very puzzled mindset. There are some cool bits, but it's just so badly judged. Like Sucker Punch without the music/girls. It's loud annoying and cliched. And the acting even, Weaver is awful. And I love Weaver in everything, even bad movies. And the robot design is so ****ing dull. We have seen every bit of this before in better movies.

I don't think I want to hear anymore SA accents for a while.

I just feel bad for Michael Biehn Just when it seems that he's going to get a chance to be in something good again and make a "comeback", he ends up working with M Night Shyamalan 2.0.

If ALIEN 5 is not written by NB, then it might still have a chance.

 

[GasparZizou]

Weaver is awful.

OH damn. I was going to watch it next week but, I don't want to no mo.

I'm afraid that this movie, Weaver wanting Alien 5 so much, and talking up Blomkamp A LOT are possible senile signs from Ripley.....

Poor Hicks indeed, but if the new Alien is heading straight to be worse than AVP I hope the whole thing falls apart.

If ALIEN 5 is not written by NB and they put a restraining order on Die Antwoord, then it might still have a chance.

Fixed for accuracy and I agree.

 

[VintijDroidGutzz]

It gets released here in Oz next week, & I was going to see it in the cinema.

Maybe not then.

 

[The Clown Prince of Crime]

Fixed for accuracy and I agree.

What if they die horribly withing the first 5 minutes of the film? That could turn the Alien into the hero of the film though, so it might not work.

Dark City > Inception.

Neill Blomkamp’s ‘Alien’ Film Could Be Two Movies

^here we go again. **** it, go mental, make it a new trilogy because that's what everything has to be now for some reason.

(I know, early days, speculation is just speculation, but this particular speculation annoys me)
