Alien - The directors cut

What the hell...

[!nfil]

apparently the trailer for Alien VS Predator WILL be attached to this so keep a look out

[3Dfx]

Alien Vs Predator = no chance

James Cameron stated he would consider writing a script for Alien 5 but only if the Alien vs Predator idea was scrapped and Im sure 20th Century Fox scrapped it to get Cameron back in the drivers seat for the Alien series after that french git Jean Pierre Jeunet messed up Ressurrection and that idiot Joss Whedon of Buffy fame wrote the worst script ever!

Tho I didnt realise Alien - Directors Cut was coming to cinema's... this the same for the UK too?

Oh and the new box set retails for around £80 or summet, and its a 9disc set with special editions and THX sound on all and also has more interviews and crap! each film is at least 2 discs!

I have the original £65 box set tho I'm tempted to sell to get this one.. oh and the deleted "Alien" scenes are on the original box set ... just not in the movie, there "special extras".

Well afaik :

Film Details

Release Date: August 6th, 2004.

Rating: Restricted, presumably.

Running Time: TBA.

Tagline: Three species, one planet. This is speculation, however, would be consistent with the Aliens vs. Predator video game series.

Released By: 20th Century Fox.

Produced By: Brandywine. Again speculation.

Director: Paul Anderson.

Writer: Paul Anderson.

Producers: John Davis and Joel Silver (Predator, Predator 2), Lawrence Gordon (Predator 2), David Giler and Walter Hill (Alien, Aliens, Alien 3, Alien: Resurrection).

Special Effects: Stan Winston (Predator, Predator 2, Aliens) would be a safe bet for the Predator effects, and H. R. Giger (Alien, Alien 3, Alien: Resurrection) would be a valuable designer if he and Fox could bury the hatchet.

Original Music: TBA.

Cast: TBA.

**Storyline Spoiler**Initial rumors had the plot following a similar story to an old Dark Horse Aliens vs. Predator comic called 'Prey'. In this version human scientists on a far away planet scheme to capture predators by growing and hatching xenomorph eggs to be used as bait for the galaxies greatest hunters. New rumors place much of the movie on Earth, specifically in underground ice caves (or an Alien pyramid of some sort) in Antarctica, with epic battles between the xenomorph and yautja alien species.**Storyline Spoiler**

Status: Pre-production stages, early script drafting, currently casting, filming to begin in Prague in October 2003.

All this is off http://www.alienexperience.com

oh and the thing about the trailer well:

With production on Paul Anderson's Alien vs. Predator ramping up, Cinescape reports that a teaser for the crossover film is already being prepared, and that an appropriate choice of films has been made to release the preview with: Ridley Scott's original Alien, which gets a theatrical re-release on October 29th. That's pretty quick, since the cameras won't begin rolling until sometime in October

As 3Dfx said James Cameron would do an Alien 5 but only if Alien VS Predator is scrapped. James Cameron and Sigourney Weaver have met and were discussing a screenplay draft for Alien 5

So there you have it, might be either Alien 5 or Alien VS Predator
