No link?

Anyway, what the hell. Everyone is trying to rejuvenate old franchises now. Die Hard, Rambo, Rocky, Indy, etc.

I think it's a fucking disgrace.

Well Simon, you may or may not be aware but Die Hard 4, Rambo, and Rocky Balboa were all really great movies.

Hell, Indiana Jones: KotCS wasn't even that bad, it just wasn't really "indy" like.

But yah, I'm also afraid that they will soil the franchise by making another AvP style brainless action flicks. The alien movies are not brainless action flicks and that is why AvP and its sequel fail.

Well, of all those movies, I think Rocky Balboa was the only one that was actually really decent and added to the franchise. Die Hard 4 was only okay, and Indy was shite.

Getting HP Lovecraft to write it would be a neat trick.

Indeed. I'm not so much giving Hollywood shit for rejuvenating old franchises with crap movies, I thought Die Hard 4 was great. I'm giving them shit for rejuvenating old franchises, period. They should be coming up with new material, new franchises, not the same old shit. That's one of the reasons I love Pixar so much, they always pushed the boundaries of imagination and creativity.

But meh, Hollywood will make whatever will pay them, and the masses are all clamoring for more of the same.

Well, if it was more of the same it wouldn't be a bad thing. If it's the same in a whole new jacket that doesn't fit, it's bad.

BUT ITS ALIEN 5!!!!!1 Very Happy

i mean ok they have fucked up other franchises (NOT the ones listed abobe) but think about it Ridley Scott is going to coo-direct it with James Cameron and this ain´t that post 10 years ago that talked about the chance. They actually showed it on TV news in Spain! So this time its for real: Fox wants 1 more of each franchise Alien AND AvP (sorry Pred 3 Fans not yet but i hope soon!)

They're still rejuvinating all these movies just to milk cash from it. If the first goal of any film is the profit, it's simply doomed to failure.

Alien 5 is simply an effort to squeeze the last drops from that cash cow. I love the Alien saga, hence I'm not going to support the assholes who green lighted this idea by buying tickets or dvds.

Hopefully this franchise reanimating frenzy we're experiencing will be over soon.

Funny thing is, Ridley Scott and Sigourney Weaver want to do it, and last I heard, Fox isn't letting them do it.

In my opinion, sequels should only be made if they are better or just anywhere near as good as the original.

I don't mind a fifth Alien film, so long as it's just as good as the originals (Alien, Aliens).

In light of that; Oh, look!

...The Donnie Darko sequel sounds like it should be a straight to DVD release.

Could be both.

This just in: I still think Alien 5 is going to be shit.

Well, you'd think after the general negative reviews of the past 4 films (Alien 3, Alien Ressurection, AvP, AvP:R), they may try something new...

Alien 3 shouldn't be part of the bad Alien movie list, it actually isn't that bad.

I thought the latters were pretty decent too. But the critics had different thoughts.
