There's a pretty epic list of Alien movies that never were.From William Gibson,David Twohy,Vincent Ward,and John Sphaits,to just flat out odd and stupid Eric Red.Also like Sphaits,we also had The Star Beast,James Cameron's first Aliens draft,Joss Whedon's rough Alien Resurrection draft.There's probably some others i'm not aware of or I'm just forgetting about right now.Which one is your favorite and why?Do you prefer it over the film they made instead?

Mine would be William Gibson.It can be a little of at times,for example it starts by focusing on specific character that is later killed about midway through.Also i wasn't too sure about the Thing esq idea of the xenomorph ripping their way out of peoples skin either.That being said i still liked its approach,Focusing on Hicks and Bishop was a cool idea.I also think it may have been the inspiration behind Alien Covenant's spores.
