Ancient Astronaut Theory?

Sir Ridley Scott is a creative , intelligent , imaginative Director, who i would imagine does not give a flying F@*K about the AVP movies and rightly so:)

You do forget that Dan O'Bannon was involved with the first AVP, and if wasn't for the late, great Dan none of us would be here!

Dan O'Bannon died?????? OMG, i'M SHOCKED. That makes me really sad....

Yes, he suffered most of his life with Crohn's disease. I have a friend with the same condition.

RIP Dan O'Bannon. Thank you for giving me the best nightmares.

I have complete respect for Mr Dan O'Bannon, but come on people, why do you feel the need to defend these AVP Movies? I am a gradute of Animation and i am Studying Illustration right now, i would not have got into what i do without movies like Alien, Aliens, Predator and so forth, i completely love these movies, But AVP and AVP2 are a slap in the face of the work done by Sir Ridley Scott And James Cameron!

only legitimacy is alien and aliens (minus the queen crap) and now prometheus. alien3=sucks, alien resurrection=plot was good but needed a Damon Lindelof to fix it-it got cheesy, predator=cool, predator 2=lame. predators=sucks, avp=absolutely flat out sucks-(except for some of the ancient temple part)

I thought Predators was great. Kinda suprised me. Coulda used more Predators, though. Alice Braga brought it as the sniper.

Dan O'Bannon was co-writer with Paul W S Anderson on AVP! I'm a graduate of Media Studies but that matters for nothing. The end results of what became AVP and AVP[b]R[/b] are terrible, I am not disputing that! But underneath the bad acting, bad directing, and producer interference the narrative, the beats strengthen the collective franchise.

i mean face it, or face-hugger it! lol, AVP was a money grab by the studio to give people what they desired, more alien, but i can't project how sh***y the AVP films are, just plain garbage!

@snorklebottom, I can respect that.

Some good points being expressed here, @Tkfanboy421(Face-Hugger it, Haha:), But lets get back to why we are really here, PROMETHEUS, and let me tell you all i have never been so excited about a movie in a long long time, after AVP promised so much and delivered so little, i think Sir Ridley is gonna knock it out of the park with this one!

I wish I could "like" comments on here. you'd get one, system9.

Correction. If you look at the computers in Alien, you will see the name Weylan on them and in some of the readouts. That's the original spelling of the name. The name "Weylan-Yutani"was created by Ron Cobb, one of the designers of the Nostromo and its crew's uniforms. “ One of the things I enjoyed most about Alien was its subtle satirical content. Science fiction films offer golden opportunities to throw in little scraps of information that suggest enormous changes in the world. There's a certain potency in those kinds of remarks. Weylan Yutani for instance is almost a joke, but not quite. I wanted to imply that poor old England is back on its feet and has united with the Japanese, who have taken over the building of spaceships the same way they have now with cars and supertankers. In coming up with a strange company name I thought of British Leyland and Toyota, but we couldn't use "Leyland-Toyota" in the film. Changing one letter gave me "Weylan," and "Yutani" was a Japanese neighbor of mine. ” —Ron Cobb, "The Authorized Portfolio of Crew Insignias from The United States Commercial Spaceship Nostromo Designs and Realizations" by John Mollo and Ron Cobb The original spelling of the Company's name was Weylan Yutani (note that there was no D in the name). At no time in Alien nor in the portfolio was the name of the Company spelled with a D. This was changed to "Weyland-Yutani" in Aliens.
