goDel Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 did you all not read the actual article? it repeatedly states that this isn't actually a film that is being made but something neill blomkamp WAS working on "in secret" that never got off the ground...was replaced by prometheus most likely.Well, shit Also, nothing good can come from the whole 'franchise' mentality of moviemakers. It's about selling as much junk food to as many people as possible. Or, what they call the art of telling stories to big audiences. Funny how there's only one letter different in telling and selling. If it smells like a franchise, you should run. Run like the wind! ....Run Forrest run! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, it's actually happening. You're right the article that was linked to was from January, but earlier today Neill Blomkamp posted this on twitter: Um... So I think it's officially my next film. #alien http://instagram.com/p/zQwEQ0qhBq/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If people don't even read one page threads you can't expect them to read whole articles Yep, I linked that older article because it showed the artwork (most of which is cool, especially the acid faced hicks shot here). And their latest article is here. Although im sure most of you can use google. Sorry for the confusion. no need to apologize, I was actually confused there would be someone in here that didn't already know Blomkamp was signed onto the project and subsequently complain about the thread based on that lack of knowledge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soloman Tump Posted February 19, 2015 Author Share Posted February 19, 2015 That version of alien 3 is so much better. It just all makes more sense. Think I'll watch it soon too, great cast Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xox Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 I'd be more than happy to watch a new film that ignores anything that was added to the "canon" after Aliens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rubin Farr Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 If any director was going to do i would pick him every time (Or Cameron but he is never coming back from Avatar land) Neil seems to have a great love for all things scfi so he should make a good moviethe rights to Terminator revert to Cameron in 2019, so I could see him producing several of those, but not direct them.

I highly doubt that. That franchise died along time ago with no hope of rescue. He would be wise to have nothing to do with it. He should just stop avatar as well and make battle angel already!

I've never heard of this version. Does it improve the ending? I though it started off well and petered out towards the end. Unfortunately the film is still mostly the same unengaging filmmaking as the theatrical cut. It's a little better overall, but the ending is basically the same, save for one detail.

entropi Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 Alien 4 should be wiped from the canon. and Prometheus (even though it's not part of the same canon) should be totally erased and destroyed too, please...

doublename Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 This is the only franchise that will get my money no matter how shit it looks. Elysium was terrible, so I'm not sure how I feel about Blomkamp at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
auxien Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 Yeah, I think Blomkap is pretty shit. District 9 was heavy-handed, weak, and visually repulsive. Elysium looked to be more of the same, so I didn't even give it a viewing. Chappie looks absolutely idiotic. I have no faith in his abilities, especially after the Alien designs and story idea he vomited onto the internet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
