The video starts off with 20th Century Fox instead of Studios and there's a statement in the video that says 'All credit goes to respective owners of clips'. The channel also has a Terminator 7 trailer with John Cena. Quote

TangledThorns Posted March 20 Posted March 20 (edited) It looks and sounds like ALIEN (with some ALIENS) but seems to gain a lot of inspiration from the ISOLATION game which is a good thing. Hopefully its really good! Edited March 20 by TangledThorns Quote
electric indigo Posted March 20 Posted March 20 Trailer could have ended at 0:30, but I very much like what I see so far. Back to the roots. Quote

Hopefully its really good! honestly, for the first 30 seconds I thought this was a fan trailer made from isolation game assets. Quote

Hopefully its really good! Yeah, that doesn't so much look like it takes inspiration from the alien isolation game as it does just straight up taking every aspect of its set design. Not the worst move they could make, considering that's basically the only good title the franchise produced after Aliens. Quote
sh9000 Posted April 4 Posted April 4 Alien is returning to theaters April 26 for a limited time. Quote

They couldn’t decide and I guess they couldn’t figure out how to stretch the story enough to fit a series. Either that or they got really confident about releasing it as a movie Quote

The original Alien was peak claustrophobic horror... they just don't make 'em like that anymore. I'm kinda worried for Alien: Romulus with the trailer having facehuggers all over the place and one character wielding a pulse rifle that it's gonna go more for the action emphasis of Aliens instead of that lovely subtle claustrophobic horror of the original film and Alien: isolation. It's just not scary when the xeno's hopping into center stage and posing. Not knowing where it is (and not seeing it coming) is a big part of what makes it scary. Quote
CoryHolmes Posted April 5 Posted April 5 Will the rerelease be... um... released here in Canada? The interwebz didn't answer me. Quote
Big s Posted April 5 Posted April 5 Will the rerelease get a popcorn bucket of one of the eggs opening Quote
Hikuro Posted April 19 Posted April 19 I might go see this at the local theater for alien day....last time I saw it in theaters was almost a decade ago during a Halloween event with a date. It was fun, we had a good time watching it at a really old movie theater. Quote
Hikuro Posted April 27 Posted April 27 God the havoc I'd cause with that sucker. Sadly I didn't get to go see ALIEN last night or the romulus stuff that came with it. I got ditched by friends who wanted to see it last minute so I just went home. Quote
CoryHolmes Posted April 28 Posted April 28 I just saw ALIEN in the theatre for the first time. In fact, this is my first time as an adult and my first time ever watching it from start to finish without pausing, fast-forwarding, or just plain watching clips on YouTube. I'm shocked at how tight the editing is and how quickly the plot moves along. Character introductions are sparse, but we learn about them as they work and not just in a montage opening. Aside from the Chestburster scene, which is and will always be truly iconic, there's shockingly little amounts of gore or on-screen violence. The set design is meant to be seen on the Big Screen, and it's wonderfully claustrophobic. I love the little decals and touches showing it's a ship with a purpose and not just a pretty set for a movie. A wonderful experience, and one of the few movies I'll watch in a year and fewer still in the theatre. Quote

Even the gore of the chestburster scene was considerably reduced after early test screenings; the assembly cut was much bloodier. Watch it, if you dare! 😅 Quote
TangledThorns Posted April 29 Posted April 29 Thank goodness for editing. Keeping the chestburster scene short is better without overdoing the shock value which can detract from the quality of the film imho. Quote
