An examinations of everything we know so far about the new Alien tv series and whether or not this project will be able to successfully appeal to both new viewers and long time fans of the franchise. Could this be the moment for the Alien franchise to reinvigorate itself, returning to the compelling visual design and storytelling that defined the original?

Imo, Scott took out almost all of the mystery from the franchise in his prequel movies. One thing i loved about 'Alien: Isolation' was how well it captured the look and feel of terror that came so very close to the original film. Part of me hopes to see something referenced in this show from that game. If the show is set on Earth, i can't help wondering if the Queen we saw plunge to the depths in 'Alien vs. Predator' is somehow factored in?

As we watch major studios go bankrupt with expensive flops, I just wonder why they don't spend more time writing. Modern producers don't seem to appreciate how much skill and effort went into Alien or Aliens. Those movies were created with immense care. I hope they spend time developing the story before they start shooting. It would be a positive change.

Faro the movie is perhaps the most perfect film. It’s in my top 3. TV series Fargo is also excellent. I just hope that being on earth is to far a stretch. To make it work you have to take into account so many factors. It could blow up just like Westworld did when in season 3 they show moved to our world. I loved Westworld and I still loved the series but they took on too much too fast. The cast became much smaller and it just got way ahead of itself. I hope they think through the plot carefully.

My feelings are mixed. IMHO there would have to be new elements introduced to expand the ALIEN world somewhat. My concern would be that the series might feel stagnant if it has no room to grow and content for us as viewers to feel an emotional investment in the world and its characters. MY problem with horror is that I'm not interested in body counts; I want characters I can relate to and root for. May take a while for me to warm up to this.

I am a long time fan of the Alien franchise! I preferred 1 and 2 but didn’t dislike any of them. Consider that at 75 years old I have been watching them over 45 years. My preference in movie genres has not changed much but my ability to capture the full meaning of them has waned. I may have to rewatch scenes or even the whole movie to get it. So I am keeping an open mind and hoping for as good a job making the series as has been done in making the movies!

"Prequel on Earth" has me deeply concerned. That was a great failing of the AvP films. Ripley's whole motivation in the core films was to keep the Alien off Earth, she sacrificed her life in the third film to keep it off Earth. The idea that the Aliens had been on Earth and it was fine inherently cheapens that drama, I feel. Yeah, the idea is to make the stakes more immediate, but that's very hard to do with a prequel. Unless you're going into an Alternate Universe route, we all know things have to line up so that the films we've already seen can take place. So we know there isn't going to be an Alien infestation of Earth, we know things are going to be mostly okay and kept under wraps so that Ripley and her crew, getting the "distress signal" in Alien, have no idea what any of this stuff is. I'm still eagerly awaiting the show coming, and really hope it'll be good, but it already feels like they're making a whole slew of mistakes.

If they have been on Earth and known about on Earth for hundreds of years PRIOR to the 1979 Alien movie, it dulls the impact, excitement and horror of finding something completely new on LV426 by the Nostromo crew. The fact that this was a first contact with a previously unknown life form explained why no one knew about it, it's life cycle and it's threat to the crew or how to deal with it is suddenly muted when an armchair historian from 200 years earlier would have all the answers (and that info never made it into a computer bank, book or whatever). Much as I was disappointed by the "prequels", I fear this will be much the same....or worse: a retreading of the AVP stories that made it seem like the Aliens had been on Earth all along....and for hundreds of years.....but for some reason we had to to deep space to find one in the first movie (and go back to deep space multiple times to try to find more)....excuse me if I'm not holding my breath.

I watched the original Alien on cable tv when I was 9 and it absolutely terrified me. It is the gold standard of horror sci fi for me.

So we're taking it in the direction of 1, 2, 3 and breaking the timeline of events to explore Red, Green, Blue. Also Directors and producers - I don't understand why this failed. I guess the film/series flopped because the fans weren't ready for that or they are stupid. The South park disney parody hit the nail so squarely on the head even I got psychosomatic pains.

@@DarthFelth kinda, ash was added to the crew on its way back to earth. This just means the company knew about the distress signal before the crew were done their mining shift, not the Alien itself. Ash was in contact with the company through mother it was only deemed a retrieval after infection and crew were expendable this all happened in 2122. So the show should be 100 years not 80, especially if it's going to be aliens on earth, but this still messes the timelines. THe synthetics would be relatively a new thing so the independent type won't be till after alien 3 and before alien 4. Burk had no idea what the aliens were he just knew what reports were saying from the early contacts, by the time the full grown Aliens were a issue the communications were already taken out. If the Alien was known the company would of sent their own people.

I think part of the appeal of Alien was that the Alien was almost like a spider. Hiding in dark corners and crevices, etc, and pouncing. It was far less scary when in full view, walking about and TRYING to look scary. Since Aliens and then Alien 3 the Xeno has become far less terrifying. In trying to evolve the origins of the Alien, Scott stripped it of it's mystery and iconic status. When Alien released back in 1979, people thought that Ripley being the sole survivor and defeating the Xeno was pretty cool as it was generally the guys that saved the day. Now, it's an actual agenda and if a gay woman doesn't kick arse and save all of the stupid men, everyone complains and boycots the show. Which is probably why the strong leads in the last two Alien movies have been female. Pander to the woke crowd. I'm hoping the TV series will go back to it's more claustrophobic roots and ditch some (or all) of the sub plots that ruined Prometheus and Covenant. What made Alien and Aliens great was that they were monster movies about a species that was clever, ferocious and tough to kill in an already alien and confusing environment. I personally don't care about similarities between monsters and people. It's dull and it's been done to death.

Everything We Know... There is only ONE ALIEN movie , and I saw it in theater in 1980. After that we had a Starship troopers version disguised as a second part , a very sad and badly made third part , and after that was a descent to hell with which version worse than the previous . On current year , no way they will make good show based on movie that should have just ONE part .

The whole premise of 'what if you can't contain it' doesn't make sense, if it was on earth there would be 0 reasons for them to try and capture specimens in the movie ALIENS, right?

ALIEN was a rip off of the film It The Terror From Beyond Space.

This show, of course, will suck. Also, since I do not subscribe to Hulu and do not pay for cable/sat service there is very little chance I could be pleasantly surprised.

I’m not going to watch the series. I’m staunchly anti disney. I’m so tired of their preaching within the movies. It will take a miracle for the series to be a success. Thanks Elaine for the great work. I’m counting the days until Dune debuts. ✌️✌️

This time line is so annoying. It doesn’t fold into any of the originals or the prequels.

The moment you said "showrunner" was when i knew this would be a piece of trash, but maybe i'll be proven wrong 🤔. The term "showrunner" was invented as a cop out for writers/directors/producers who screw up, the "showrunner" is always a scrificial lamb . In development since December 2020 ? yeah if it was going to be any good we would have been hearing about it long before now...

The first Alien they were space truckers. The second Aliens they were space marines. This cast looks like a lame YA tweenybopper film (you know, where kids fight each other to the death ala Hunger Games, Mazerunner, etc). Whoever cast this show should be fired and never work in the tv/film industry again. I have zero belief that this will be anything but another pathetic CW/MTV show.

With any shows coming into production nowadays, it seems like the only things studios care about is diversity and inclusion. My hopes are not high for any TV show produced nowadays.
