I am a HUGE fan of Ridley Scott!!!! As a matter of fact my Youngest son's name is 1st name Ridley, middle name Scott. As much as I like the prequels and Alien, with all the negativity that surrounds the prequels Fox may be looking at replacing Ridley with a new director. And that's even if they continue with the franchise. I have thought about this and 2 directors have come to mind. I like the story but maybe they need to beef up the horror and suspense. The 2 directors I came up with is James Wan and Fede Alvarez. Opinions?

James Cameron nearly ruined Alien. The Queen and all that. That movie didn't really happen in the Alien Universe. You'd do good to forget it.

like all movies each is open to everyones opinion. I rank it as my 2nd favourite alien movie in the franchise and although I certainly prefer the egg morphing method, I don't discount the queen given the right set of circumstances

If Aliens never happened the Alien franchise would not exist. As much as I'm not a fan of Cameron, aside from Aliens and the first two Terminator movies, you wouldn't be getting these crappy new movies if it wasn't for Aliens. That movie made this franchise even more successful and changed sci-fi even more than Alien. You might say Blade Runner but Blade Runner was not received well initially, it got a following long after it came out in theaters. Aliens changed sci-fi whether you like the movie or not, Sigourney Weaver was nominated for an Academy Award for best actress in the 80s for a sci-fi movie, that's insane. Aliens brought sci-fi into a whole other level for the general audience and is why Alien movies kept getting made and still continue to. They're hoping to catch that lightning in a bottle again but it ain't gonna happen.

The only person who could do something worthwhile with the Alien franchise aside from Riddles would be David Cronenberg. I wouldn't trust Neill Blomkamp EVER.
