+Stary 2,427 Posted September 18, 2009 I don't give a s**t if Ridley's directing. No way! See, seeing Alien for the very first time changed me, and the way I look at world. Changed me for bad perhaps. It was Ripley, Ash, Lambert, the story, that made me thinking about morality, the importance of choices, the sacrifice, the pain. I was ten years old. Alien was pure mindf**k for me. Next day I spend all of my time in school drawing in my book what I saw on that VHS. Ten years later I was buying every Giger's albums I could find, mature enough to understand the sexual overtones, the design of alien, what happened to Lambert after Parker's death. Alien, the first movie, before Cameron, Dark Horse and s**tty Amalgamated Inc., is something that cannot be rebooted. Post Scriptum: Stay away from "Edge of Darkness" Mel.

FastCargo 412 Posted September 19, 2009 Well, technically, this isn't a reboot...it's a prequel...it supposedly happens before the events of Alien,Aliens,Alien3,Alien Resurrection. FC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gr.Viper 131 Posted September 19, 2009 Originally Giger modelled extending jaws on a different extending organ. I wonder, if they'll ever shoot a movie based on that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JediMaster 451 Posted September 21, 2009 No matter what you might think, it 100% has to be better than AvP Requiem! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
firehawkordy 34 Posted September 21, 2009 No matter what you might think, it 100% has to be better than AvP Requiem! Oh God, a movie based on a comic book that was based on one scene at the end of the second Predator movie. For those who don't know what I mean, at the end of the flic, in the Predator's ship there is wall of trophy skulls. Right in the middle of the wall is a skull of the Alien. I think it was an inside joke or a nod to the Alien franchise. The only movies worth watching are the first two Alien movies. And can you think of a scene better than Ripley climbing into that spacesuit? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
