    Looks like I got my answer. Interesting director choice. http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/heat-vision/top-gun-2-director-joseph-kosinski-circling-tom-cruise-sequel-1007357

    Nice Vantity Fair photos, especially of Carrie Fisher with her daughter. Also, did I see a Bothan??

    ALIEN and ALIENS gave us champagne tastes when it comes to sequels. Star Wars, Dark Knight and Terminator films suffers from this after their second films too.

    OK... but who is directing?

    Just got the 'making of' book and it's really cool. Highly recommended.

    Same, my first James Bond film was For Your Eyes Only. I think it was Moore's best film too. Very thrilling seeing it the first time when I was really young, had no idea who James Bond was till I saw him on the screen for the first time.

    I'm OK if Urban isn't in it as long as the show is made well.

    Alamo drafthouse? We have one here in NOVA and while the food & drink is nice its become a turn-off as we've experienced one too many a-holes getting too drunk and stupid during a movie.

    That's awful, I had no idea that happened http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/heat-vision/zack-snyder-steps-down-justice-league-deal-family-tragedy-1006455

    I realized the biggest change in the villains between the first 4 ALIEN films and the post-Prometheus is corporate greed was replaced with scientific. Fassbender's David is turning into a very interesting villain and is my only real curiosity about where the next film goes. The movie did well enough for its opening weekend so I suspect we'll see more Ridley Scott ALIEN movies.

    I just pre-ordered the 'making of' book that is to be released this week. The Art and Making of Alien: Covenant https://www.amazon.com/dp/1785653814/ref=cm_sw_r_other_apa_qKGizbNHGSV73 Also ordered this book too. Alien: The Weyland-Yutani Report https://www.amazon.com/dp/160887866X/ref=cm_sw_r_other_apa_vMGizbM81RQP6

    MAKE ALIEN SCARY AGAIN

    Just saw it. Gory with amazing effects but that's about it. No real scares and an ending that was pretty weak. Based on footage we've seen in trailers I suspect there is a director's cut that could make this film better.

    Unusual choices sometime make for the best choice.

    Mommar brought up time travel and Star Trek has gotten to the point of using and abusing time travel so much that the franchise might as well be called 'Time Trek.' For Star Trek to work it needs a Disney/Marvel like treatment to keep it cohesive.

    Brought my 18in ALIEN doll to work today for 'show n'tell' to my fellow nerd coworkers. Would it be weird if I brought the doll with me to the new movie?

    The Orville trailer seemed more interesting and more Star Trek like than Discovery, and its a sci-fi spoof!
  18. TangledThorns
    That was an awful trailer and it gave me a bad vibe.
  19. TangledThorns
    Was it scary? Alien3 was the last film to have any real frights IMHO. I'll go see it this weekend. Probably alone as my wife has no interest, lol.
  20. TangledThorns
    It does look like they are goofing around but it appears there will be more than one Predator in the film too.
  21. TangledThorns
    Haha, the lore went to crap in Resurrection and somehow went further down with the AVP films. Honestly I think some of the fault lies with Ridley Scott and James Cameron. ALIEN and ALIENS set the bar so high that any sequel will look weak in comparison. However that is not an excuse for Hollywood not to try and make better ALIEN films. I'm 100% certain you can find a young director with a smaller budget that can make a good scary ALIEN film. ALIEN: Isolation is a good example of what can be done right with the ALIEN franchise.

    Annoying how countries outside the States get to see films weeks before us. I know it has to do with piracy prevention and marketing but its still annoying.

    He was up there with Bill Paxton when it came to adding a Southern character to a film. I'm surprised he was 68, I thought he was older so I wonder if he had something going on affecting his health.
  24. TangledThorns
    How much better?
  25. TangledThorns
    I'm going to wait till all the episodes are out. If there is no official subtitles by then I'll watch the fansubs. Their loss and by loss I mean money.
