Alien 2.5?:
Its been announced that Alien 5 will actually be Alien 3...sort of. Neil Blomkamp (the director) has decided to set his movie after the events of Aliens, the 2nd of 4 Alien films. This effectively wipes out Alien 3 and Alien Resurrections. WARNING, SPOLIERS FOR ALIEN 3 FOLLOW: While this means a return for Hicks, Newt and a non-clone Ripley (Who all died in Alien 3), is this a good move? END SPOILER. In my opinion, I actually like Alien 3, especially the Assembly Cut, and so do not think this is a good idea. Time will tell however as we cautiously await the next film. |
More Blade Running:
Blade Runner 2 is now official! The sequel to the 1982 classic has been rumoured for a long time, but now it has been confirmed. Harrison Ford, who plays Rick Decker, is also confirmed to return. Ridley Scott however, the director of the original film will not be returning. Denis Villeneve will be directing this one, though I must admit I am not familiar with any of his work Ridley Scott will have some kind of involvement. The film is set to shot summer next year. |
That's it for this week. Its a great coincidence that both Alien and Blade Runner are both Ridley Scott directed Sci-Fi's. What else can next week hold?
Until then,
See Ya!
