June 07, 2012A coincidence I found this thread through Google and was about to post the same thing, it DEFINITELY needs to have the Alien redone, and just as importantly the Alien first person perspective shots need to be removed.
I want it to be as long as possible, keep all of the extended scenes in there that the assembly cut has, cut down the part with Dillion getting ripped apart while telling Ripley what to do, have him say a short line while struggling at most..
Maybe cut down the parts with Weyland talking to Ripley followed by her jumping into the lava pool (redo the CGI on that too) or remove that shot completely.
I honestly loved every part of Alien3 except for these little issues I have, the filming was absolutely terrific and very interesting, the acting was great too, fantastic characters and 90% of Alien3 stood proudly next to Alien in my opinion.
Alien3 was great, I saw every Alien film in one day when I was 10, my friend lent me the box set and Alien3 was without a doubt my favourite back then, before I started judging special effects.
So that answers it directly, I would absolutely love this to happen, even if Fox don't do it, i'm sure there are employees at WETA or whatever who would do this in their spare time?
