Good to see Scott is more closely involved now.

Yes, but back then Scott did not plan to direct the movie himself - it seems now he does.

Like I said, good to see that he's more closely involved now.

Gives me hope that it won't degrade into an epic slaughter with over-the-top effects, but turns out as something more substantial. Something that stays true to the original, and is a credit to his name.

I fail to see why a remake of Alien though if that's what it is.

Oh, a prequel. Sounds interesting but it will probably de-mystify the mystery of the first one and make it less ominous. Scott will probably deliver though.

It isnt a remake.

Like I said on the other thread, I dont really like the idea of having this happen before Alien. I just cant see what the plot could be.

I mean, there cant be any human survivors, because 'Alien' was the first case when human race encountered them.

Or maybe they make it happen before spacetravel, which would propably be something like AvP2 and that would suck alot. Tho, not saying it could not work, take the movie Split Second (if you havent seen it, WATCH IT ASAP) for example, that was very alien-ish and set to a similar enviroment as Predator 2 and it worked very well.

And last option I can think of would be a movie without humans, which of course would be pretty darn stupid.

Well if it's a prequel then it ought to cover the events leading up to Alien 1. Like, the spacecraft ending where it did with the alien eggs onboard and then the evil corporation sending the 'space truckers' of Alien 1 in harms way to collect a specimen of the alien etc.

Yeah well you know what im getting at. Okay then this question "why go back to Alien?" Stupid, Alien been done don't go back there "not even before alien" either no matter what! Oh wait we need to make 300mil lets go down a slighty different path this will draw the fans of the old days - NOT.

It will suck for me for that reason. IMO Scotts a ******! for going down that road.

Just carry on from Alien resurection.
