A History of Unmade ALIEN Sequels

[@neonkenomi320]

Sadly Alien: Isolation is the closest thing we have to a perfect Alien sequel and that game sadly won't even get a proper follow up.

[@BoyNamedSue4]

Honestly I’m ok with that. The people who worked on the game said they got to put basically every idea they had for the game in either the game or dlc. So if they were to make it would be based on money and not that they have unexplored ideas or storylines. Which is never a good start.

[@mister-BH]

I could play a slightly escalating Isolation sequel where you *can* fight the Aliens but you have very few resources to do so and it's more like a dynamic full horror System Shock with unpredictable AI than anything else. I mean, they could redo the same game again but, I don't think it would work again, it would be great but I have no idea what could you add to that masterpiece.

Sadly that never came to pass. He had some good stories with his two movies. Chappie and District9 were well written and well executed. I wish they'd do an Amanda Ripley story and have Sigourney Weaver play *her*. WIth someone new playing Ellen. Since canon of Amanda-Ripley McClaren is for her to die at approximately 66 (Aliens Special Edition). Sigourney Weaver's age is perfectly inline with that. Just as Sigourney Weaver's mom played her aged daughter back then. Expand Amanda from the Alien Isolation universe and have her old narrating the story. Does not necessarily need to be Alien Isolation story line. Could be a movie sequel with the events of Sevestopol as a cutscene to open the film. It gives us a torch pass to someone new and puts Sigourney Weaver in the movie one last time. Something like the Star Trek reboots kept Spock as a catalyist.

It is astouding to me how much respect, if we can call it that, the studio has on Scott to keep making Alien movies, or rather the insane plan of multiple prequels. I think that it would have been better for the Chappie and District 9 director to continue with his pitch as what people really wanted was a continuation of the Alien 2 cast and see where they go. It gives Sigourney Weaver a dignified end and the chance for a new leading character, plus the ideas of mass produced xenomorphs controlled by humans is the most realistic take for the aliens now. They have become so watered down from their original pressence as killer stalkers when the actual fear to ampt up the series is how this far future conglomerate of Weiland-Yutani desires to control everything. This could tie to what the crew was really supposed to be doing in the original movie and how this corpotation is searching ways to further expand. Perhaps even in a later movie tie it to the whole nature of humanity and what creation means with a battle of mass produced xenos under W-U to go up against the Engineers.

[@Khan-dell-Orda-d-Argento]

As I see it, two were the most counterproductive moves in this saga: remaining tied to Ripley after Aliens, and not having continued the narrative line of Prometheus. Ripley had already said everything at the end of Cameron's film, she had obtained consolation and finished her story. We could easily talk about other encounters with the xenomorphs, varying the plot. For Prometheus, well...an interesting premise was created in the contrast between Shaw and David, forced to travel together to the engineers' planet of origin. It was the promising setting for the clash between two different visions: Elizabeth saw her hopes of finding meaning in human existence and a purpose for the engineers' extermination project shattered; David, for his part, developed the arrogance of becoming a creator god, until the clash between the two came, which culminated in Shaw's death. However, the problem of that blessed wreckage on LV-426 remains, which certainly crashed much earlier than the events of Prometheus and Covenant.

It’s amusing to see ideas fall through time like a pachinko machine. Gibson’s radical expansion of the “alien as virus” finding its way into Covenant is definitely something. Although, like with Shin Godzilla’s ending message, having a story based entirely around community and collective to challenge a threat that acts as internal molting/corruption horror to threaten that community makes sense. The parts as they appear in Covenant, not so much. (Read the comic WITH the audio drama backing it. Big recommend!)

I wanted the prequel trilogy as first envisioned. Covenant seemed to a "screw you" to the feedback he got after Prometheus. Prometheus was solid and a beautifully shot film...with really stupid human characters. Aliens and Alien were the only ones that had fleshed out characters that behaved as you'd expect given circumstances...and died anyway. Prometheus had a few really good characters...who betrayed their core values to get to the part where they died. Covenant just doubled down on human idiocy. I think Scott was mad at humanity for those films. Still would've loved to have seen Shaw and David's story through. Blomkamp's movie is another lost opportunity. I hate Alien 3 most of all for the studio not spending the money to bring Hicks and Newt back.

The Blomkamp sequel and the AvP movie based off the comic sounded coolest to me.

[@Deadwolf27]

I think if your script kills off Ripley, Hicks, or Newt it's probably a bad script. Don't get me wrong those characters are allowed to die. They shouldn't be demigod super soldiers. But seeing them strive for survival so much in Aliens only to kill them off is a real slap in the face especially if it's the beginning of the film. As for the sequels I'd like to have seen. AVP with Broken Tusk and Machiko would be a dream come true. This wasn't mentioned in the video but I have been told in the past (no reliable sources) that AVP 1994 was going to tie into a movie so that would have been really excellent as well. I'd also have liked the reboot Alien 3 from the Chappie director and the Alien 3 that got turned into a comic and a book. Those both sound great and the idea of an airborne alien infection makes me think Covenant could have been a lot better with some rewrites. Starbeast is also cool and I feel like with some reworking it could just be it's own thing and still be made. Edit: Forgot to say thanks for the video Matt. I'm a big Alien fan and this was a delight.

The franchise needs to try and move froward, not constantly backwards with prequels and reboots. The more they set stories before Alien, the more it undermines that movie which should be humans first encounter with the Xenomorph. Alien 3 was a perfect ending to the Ripley story, they need to move forward from that, not ignore it so they can drag an OAP Ripley out to rehash what's gone before. Have the Aliens finally get to earth and swarm the planet or have Weyland Yutani discover the alien homeworld and visit there. Some hellish, Gigeresque planet would be amazingly dark, creepy and atmospheric.

[@thebeardedseeker5633]

So back in the day my fantasy for a remake of Alien 3 was for Ripley's ship to have entered a trans-dimensional wormhole and be found floating aimlessly by .... Captain Picard and the crew of the Enterprise -D. As Ripley, Newt, and Hicks are from a different universe the Enterprise can barely make out their lifesigns when Picard instructs the crew to scan for life. But once they're confirmed Picard orders that the ship be beamed into the cargo bay. Since all three are badly in need of medical help Dr. Crusher keeps them under anesthesia for a few days. It's then that crew members of the Enterprise suddenly begin to go missing one by one. What ensues is Ripley being being revived, learning of where she's ended up and what's happening on the strange starship she found herself on, then going head to head with Captain Picard who initially refuses to entertain her take on why crew members are disappearing. I thought this up after being thoroughly disappointed with Alien3, but a few years later First Contact was released and contained a lot of the ingredients of my Alien/Star Trek mashup.
