My favorite moment in any predator movie is the ending of predator 2 just because it expanded the universe so much and that's also what I'm looking forward to in predator Badlands just an entire universe of predators New aliens to hunt new adventures. All that cool stuff!
Yes!! This is what I was telling you about, Chris. I can't wait to see him.
My favorite moment is when Naru clears out the camp with her axe. I'm looking forward to seeing another unique take on predator and hopefully references to the xeno or an AVP teaser.
My favorite moment in a Predator movie is when we see the classic Jungle hunter fight the Berserker in PREDATORS 2010. I hope we see a ton of Alien references in Predator Badlands with Weyland Yutani around!
This one by loikbihan on Instagram. Pretty spot-on depiction.
This is a tough one, but while I wouldn't mind any of the options, seeing that Sigourney Weaver wanted to cooperate with Walter Hill in an interview really invigorated my interest in having her back, coupled with the fact how well she played the teenage(!) Na'vi in Avatar 2 recently. She's still got it no doubt.
Additionally, I've never sensed a desperation from her side as she's always struck me as a person who's cleverly picky about (and maybe/rightfully a bit tired of reprising her role as Ripley once again at the time) her roles.
A new sequel I say, but I'd be no less happy with another prequel. Ground rule is, a good script just like Weaver touched upon in said interview.
Also, thank you Chris for not adding a fourth option "Alien Earth: The Movie. In the Beginning" 😂
Unrelated to the OP poster but saw this one on my feed from @justbychris:

That’s really interesting! I always wondered about the missing footage from Godzilla: King of the Monsters. A three-hour director’s cut sounds like it could’ve given us more depth into the story and characters. It’s a bit disappointing that the deleted scenes were removed from the home release — maybe there were behind-the-scenes issues or rights complications. Hopefully, one day they’ll decide to release that extra footage for the fans. <a href="https://ragdollhitstickman.io/">ragdoll hit</a>
It’s an interesting thought to consider Ripley's escape ship from Alien still drifting through space during the timeline of Alien Romulus.
My favorite scene is from Prey when the predator is in between the ash trees. It was so cool the fight and voices. And we could see he's personality one time when he cut off a man head and tree.
I'm looking forward to see Tia and Dek relationship. They so sibling coded. And the fights as well, I can tell it will be amazing. And lastly I want to know Dek past.
I think Ridley is partly to blame. Not that I mourn them but it started with Prometheus retconing the AVP movies. For the best to be certain (in my opinion anyway) but it set a precedent. He's produced Alien Earth so he's definitely fine with it ignoring his prequels. He could have made sure Earth didn't ignore them. He allowed it to happen. Same goes with Blomkamp's movie. It would have ignored 3 and Resurrection and Ridley was producing. If Walter Hill's treatment moves forward Ridley will more than likely produce. Ridley is most certainly not concerned with continuity.
I am happy to hear Sigourney is interested in making the 5th. Love her response on the answer and really hope the whole thing becomes true.
I do appreciate her response too, it sounds like she’s very selective with the manner in which she would reprise her role. I pray they’d do her character justice and not merge her with some contemporary woke nonsense…
Hey I'm totally down with that 😆Anything would be better than children commanding Xenomorph pets at this point. Beggars can’t be choosers. LolYeah they actually succeeded with one thing, that is setting the bar for Alien projects in the deep sea trenches! They checked so many boxes on how to NOT make an alien show imo, which is quite a remarkable achievement in its own way 🫣🤦😅
True we should be thankful we now have a crystal clear outline of what NOT to do with an Alien film / show 🤣 silver linings, love the positive outlook Neomorph!

Great topic and you're absolutely right. The Alien franchise seems to be splintering off in multiple directions and its going to lose its coherence if something isn't done about it. It feels like storytelling is going out the window and in its place is a manifestation of ADHD incoherence – each new director / writer cherry picking their favorite timelines and aspects and making their own story with it instead of acknowledging and keeping the story tethered.
That being said it is very very possible to at least maintain film canon with all these offshoot projects, they can make a Ripley story, Ridley can make a new prequel and Romulus 2 can also exist and all respect the same architecture of what came before them. It just requires a little more thought and consideration.
Studio execs should give us the keys and we can build them an outline! 😂
Updated with Fandango and ScreenX posters now as well!
Loving these posters!
Interesting piece of trivia i left out. When writing Alien Sea of Sorrows, author James A. Moore was initially supposed to ignore Alien 3 and Resurrection then Fox changed their minds. The novel then had to be altered to acknowledge those particular entries. Moore welcomed the change because he enjoyed them warts and all. This is a 2014 novel so it predates Disney buying Fox but even then the desire to retcon 3 and Resurrection existed.
🤣 If I could’ve shared this cake with you I would have! Thanks Nebula!
Nice. You lucky sob, and happy b-day!
(Insert portal cake is a lie meme here)

No it was Fondant, but yes it was delicious! It was really well made and the cake itself was good quality as well!
And thank you so much! 😁🙏🏻
Alien Turdth, can I borrow this name? Pretty please :D
Of course fellow member! 😄👍
No way!! That is baking masterclass. Was it as tasty as is it looks awesome? Is it marzipan?
You're one lucky lad, and congrats on your birthday🎉🎊
According to reports Badlands takes place way after the events of Resurrection so both Alien 3 and 4 have already occurred by the time Badlands takes place – assuming they don’t ret-con them for Alien 5 (if that actually gets made).
Hey I'm totally down with that 😆

Oh, thats cool. Hi guys from AVP Galaxy!Hey! 👋😂 how's the weather over there? And yes very cool! I'm curious to see how advanced the synths are in this movie. They should be significantly ahead of everything we've seen so far.
Yes finally an ALIEN/PREDATOR movie that pushes the timeline forward. Although I hope it takes place after ALIEN 3 but Resurrection is fine I guess.

We would definitely love to see it, I think this is the only movie out of the series the gives honor to the Japanese films of Godzilla. As you watch it you feel a lot of the scenes are cut short. Especially when it shows the other Titans destroying cities under King Ghidorahs short reign. I believe with the extra footage it will give the story more depth. They need to do this before WB gets sold again and we lose footage forever. Bring the directors vision to life...

😆🤣 I’m still laughing at Alien: Turdth lolll You know what though, last year there was a rumor circulating that Disney were developing another Alien project with a digitally de-aged Riley being at the forefront of it… 👀 You joke now but… lol
I had a different opinion on this a while ago and I've changed my mind thanks to Alien Turdth that left me with a clinical shit-eating grin. Continue where Resurrection left off...
*forum members signing off*
Bring back Sigourney Weaver and digitally de-age her. She's still a stellar actress and actually keeps herself fit, and regardless of what people think of A4, a new chapter could be something completely different, preferably darker. Have Ripley 8 internally struggle with her identity and fragmented memory while Xenomorphs either infest earth as David arrives to unleash them, or have them already roaming the streets since 100 years ago.
*members signing back in and reporting Neomorph*
Will she be lost to her Alien side and become a villain, or return as Ripley Re-Resurrected the way we knew her from A1-3 and parts of A4?

I agree, I think Ripley's story should remain concluded. However I wouldn't be opposed to cameo appearances, like crew of another ship discovering video logs left behind by Ripley, or some other small role in that sense. But a complete new adventure where we have to properly arc her rise and fall would feel exaggerated and unnecessary.
I love Ripley and I think Sigourney Weaver is the absolute GOAT, but out of respect for her legacy and the work she's done, I would rather the Alien franchise focus on new stories rather than regurgitating old ones.
Please no!
Even though every alien-movie after 3 have been bad to average it's time to give Ripley a rest and come up with new ideas. You need interesting ideas, good writing, and well-written and executed human characters for it to work. What if a eventual Alien 5 would suck? That would put another bullet into the franchise and we don't need that.
