[George Oscar Bluth II]

She is in it.

 

[strafer]

thats fucked up

way to go Neil...what a kick in the nuts to the legacy.

 

[Gozer the Gozerian]

Alien 3 was fine but I'm not really going to lose sleep over its story being ignored for this

 

[Tagyhag]

Yes, yes, and yes.

 

[Dead]

thats fucked up

way to go Neil...what a kick in the nuts for the legacy.

Alien 3 and 4 are a disgrace to the legacy.

 

[Dead Man]

Excellent news, even though Resurrection is a guilty pleasure.

 

[dekline]

FUCK

 

[Floridian]

 

[Ishida]

I can live without Resurrection, but as controversial as Alien 3 is, it provided a perfect ending to the franchise, so I'm not ok about removing it from canon.

 

[Shaanyboi]

Sooo... any guesses on a title?

Alien: Revelation

The 'Real' Alien 3

Aliened

 

[RE_Player]

Alien 3 and 4 are a disgrace so good on him.

 

[Facism]

Is Sci-Fi Queen Sigourney Weaver as Ripley in it??????????

It's in the OP link, meight.

 

[Violence Jack]

Oh yeah. Give me all of this.

 

[demon]

Fucking awesome.

 

[CassidyIzABeast]

Hopefully this is good. Otherwise we'll be disregarding it aswell.

Sooo... any guesses on a title?

Alien: Revelation

The 'Real' Alien 3

Alien The Third.

 

[Dalek]

I actually am in the small group that likes Alien 3-but I'm all for this idea. Brilliant!

[Kaladin]

All those people who bought the Alien Quadrilogy are feeling stupid now.

 

[Dr Duncan Steel]

Having Ripley in is important yes but what about Dwayne Fuckin Hicks?!

He has to be in if the concept art is to be concerned.

 

[PhantomZone]

This is good news, Alien 3 / Alien Resurrection can be like Jaws 3 and 4 and pretend they don't exist (I actually liked Jaws 2 ).

 

[Floridian]

Who's Resurrection?

 

[Dommo]

Alien 3 and 4 are a disgrace to the legacy.

Just wait until this film is released and the consensus will be "Alien 3 isn't as bad as this and didn't deserve to be wiped off canon."

 

[Clydefrog]

I'm all for new storytelling

Alien franchise is becoming a "choose your own adventure" book

 

[SmackAttack]

Well shiiiieeeet. I did like Alien 3 but I'm okay with this.

 

[Dan]

Sooo... any guesses on a title?

Alien: Redemption

 

[Verger]

Thank god! Resurrection can finally go to the abyss where it belongs.


Alien 3 wasn't as bad, but had too many problems.

 

[Fiktion]

Hopefully this is good. Otherwise we'll be disregarding it aswell.

I agree this is their last chance to make it right. If they fuck it up this time too the franchise might as well RIP.

 

[Fj0823]

Aliens 2. Boom.

Excelent news

 

[Dead]

Having Ripley in is important yes but what about Dwayne Fuckin Hicks?!

He has to be in if the concept art is to be concerned.

Played by sharlto copley

 

[Caboose]

Good.

 

[Fancy Clown]

And then when this one turns out terrible people will have options as to which shitty canon they choose to believe! A choose your own adventure of unfortunate sequels.

 

[Korigama]

YES! Was hoping for this, even if this one could suck too.

 

[adj_noun]

All those people who bought the Alien Quadrilogy are feeling stupid now.

I got it dirt cheap though. It's pretty darn neat!

 

[Drencrom]

That's great to hear and gives me more hope for this project.

Spoiler

Can we disregard Prometheus while we're at it?

 

[a Master Ninja]

And then when this one turns out terrible people will have options as to which shitty canon they choose to believe! A choose your own adventure of unfortunate sequels.

Pretty much

 

[BrokenEchelon]

I'm ok with this, I guess.

 

[Hackworth]

yoooooo

 

[jstevenson]

while I think Alien 3 has its merits, branching the timeline for a reboot post Aliens is the right call for a new Aliens movie at this point.

 

[brandonh83]

I don't see one singular negative thing about any of this.

 

[FUBAR McDangles]

They could easily play it off as some type of dream sequence in Ripley's head when she is in cryo-sleep after Aliens or something.

Is it the right decision? Not necessarily. But I'm still excited as hell. Cannot wait.

 

[RE_Player]

Wait does this mean Aliens Colonial Marines is not canon? Oh no

Spoiler

/s

 

[Aurongel]

Alien VS. Copley

 

[samn]

I can live without Resurrection, but as controversial as Alien 3 is, it provided a perfect ending to the franchise, so I'm not ok about removing it from canon.

The last thing any media company wants is an end to a major franchise.
