Alien 1 1/2

Welcome Back

I think that Certainly there is a Horrific Story that preceded Aliens,  the Fall of Hadleys Hope.

I am not so sure Theatrically it would be a GREEN LIGHT though, because we kind of KNOW what Happened from Aliens.

A Novel or Comic adaption however would be Interesting.

Maybe more so... a Survival Horror Game!  but this is something that Someone who posts on here has been working on for a Number of Years.

ALIEN: HOPE FOR THE FUTURE

That sounds like River of Pain.

Not sure if Disney wants to deal with children (and their horrific deaths) in movies?

You can't really market the franchise as kid friendly? 

Well eff me? Of course someone had thought this up.

Hey welcome back!

About that bridge idea....for the love of God why is everyone persisting with crazy ideas, Why??????????? 

This franchise is in a complicated mess.....do the wrong film and it is gone for good.

Why? why take any sucky idea and just say ahhhh let's go with that film....see this little guy he wants to see the that story too.

I mean at least try and think of some better ideas....case in point. We all know there is much stronger film to be made. A film that brings money into this franchise for a long time and it is not about LV-426 and the alien family story....we know it is not that film....but what film could it be....that is the real question.

"A film that brings money into this franchise for a long time and it is not about LV-426 and the alien family story....we know it is not that film"

Unfortunately i DOUBT such a Film would Exist.... because you WONT be able to Please everyone!

More likely that Disney would give us near Carbon Copy of something similar to Aliens and AVP.... but maybe they would EXPLORE whats Beyond the Xenomorph and then Change the Engineers but it would be something maybe more like Marvels Thanos.

@BigDave......

Is that a picture of you sucking on that tube.......realy BigDave!!!!

As far as being kid friendly I took my kids to see Prometheus when it came out. They loved every second of it. Disney kids they hardly are. 

@BlackAnt

Sorry Wrong David..... i think that Hamster has been taking Flute Lessons off David 8 ;)

Absolutely not all Kids are into Movies made for Kids, when i was a Kid i enjoyed a Fair Share of Horror and Dark Sci-Fi that was given a Cert 18 UK Certificate... but another point is WHAT would Scare kids or seem to be Inappropriate in the 70's and 80's does not effect kids of nowadays as it would back then.

The point i was making is that Disney would likely want to stick to Movies that are more Similar to Aliens and AVP as far as to feature multiple Xenomorphs and Action, and also i think Disney would TONE the Gore etc Down to PUSH a PG-13 so that means MORE can see the Movie at the Box Office.

There Certainly is a Horrific Story to be Told between when the Jordons Encountered the Xenomorph to the point that Newt was the ONLY Survivor... i just doubt we would ever get this Story shown on the Big Screen.

I think its a Story that would make a GREAT Survival Horror Game.

@BigDave

Very funny stufffffffff bwhahahhahahahahhaha LOL AWESOME COME BACK BIGDAVE! I can always count on you to lift me out any bad day! 

This is all of us....Disney...and how this entire franchise is going right now! LOL

I like the idea of showing the story of Hadley's Hope. There was a decent chunk in Aliens' DC explained. I ran into another independent piece that could help flesh out your story as well. Alien Supremacy:

DK: Aliens did that enough, I am not sure if it is necessary to show more about it. The prequels demystified the Xeno enough so there is a risk that they will destroy Hadley's Hope if they make a movie about it.
