Blazing Ownager posted:DC is in the gutter for making poo poo movies This was preceded by Superman vs Aliens. Superman learns of a possible surviving colony of Kryptonians and goes into space to investigate. He finds the colony near deserted, save for one survivor, and fully infested with xenomorphs. Away from a yellow sun, Superman slowly loses his powers and must find a way to escape. It literally ends with Superman flexing a chestburster inside of him to death and barfing it out.  It also had a sequel where Darkseid finds a ship full of eggs and uses them in a plot against the New Gods.  Darkseid gives zero fucks.

Wow if aliens the franchise couldn't get worse after making nothing but dogshit films after the first two, tremendous first two films, we have comic books surging in to show why they will always be the most bottom barrel form of entertainment

AvP deathmatch will always be unbeatable simply because playing as Alien you just knew how scared shitless the other guys were, so you would do stuff an AI would never be as adept at doing, like hanging on the ceiling above them for ages as they shone their torchlights around, occasionally hissing to remind them you're near. I'm also somewhat ashamed to say that I really struggled to play the single player as Marine.

The movie Alien is on TV right now. AMC. COINCIDENCE???? I had a nap at night which always blows so I'll probably be up really late. If that's the case I'll watch Alien later. Durzel posted:I'm also somewhat ashamed to say that I really struggled to play the single player as Marine.

Pennywise the Frown posted:Anyone have experience with Alien: Isolation? Is it possible for a gigantic pussy to get through it without upping my dose of a bunch of klonopin? This is reaching a bit back but worth mentioning: Most horror stuff generally doesn't faze me and I'm the type to geek out at haunted houses for their design and costuming, so much so that the actors usually leave me alone because I have a big dumb grin on my face the whole time. Alien: Isolation gave me nightmares for a week. It was great.

So let's go with the klonopin thing then. I'm thinking of installing AvP 2010 tonight. That really was a decent game. I just hate playing the Marine and if you do the campaign I think you have to do that.

Have you seen Galaxy of Horrors, OP? it's a film Cameron worked on in 1981 and is a near perfect blueprint of Aliens. HOWEVER, it's good in a terribly cheesy way instead of a classic Cinema way, like Aliens. It's interesting to see how much execution matters and in the hands of someone competent, the same story has a totally different energy. I recommend it if you are a big fan of Aliens.

Galaxy of Terror? Looks like Galaxy of Horrors came out in 2017. Neither got decent ratings but I'm well aware that that doesn't mean much. Robert Englund is in it????

Alien 3 should have let Ripley, and company make it home. Weyland-Yutani does a complete PR job on the incident at LV-426. Ripley, Hicks, and Newt are made to look like mentally broken survivors of an unfortunate nuclear meltdown that wiped out the colony and the marines sent to rescue them. The plot could still do the whole prison planet thing, but up the population of the planet. Have WY bribe some corrupt government officials into letting them turn aliens lose on the prison planet in an attempt to create a giant hive. Have Ripley discover the plot but be treated like a total nut by the media, and anyone else she tries to tell the truth. In the end you could still kill her off but it'd be far more sinister to let some WY assassin do it. After all she went through in the end Ripley gets killed by a bunch of greedy back stabbing corporate hacks for trying to whistle blow. Squeals can continue from there, eventually have the Aliens make it to earth ect...

Hard? Lol, good luck. Isolation is terrifying enough without ramping up the ability for the Alien to hunt you. I think at hard the Alien not only hunts you down more rigorously, but can also smell your fear through the television.

It also picks up the sound on your mic if you’re using that. So you can actually call the alien to your location by saying whatever you want or farting

My two cents, Alien Isolation was an amazing game, fantastic sound design and great fun/holy making GBS threads terror. At times I genuinely had to have a beer on hand to calm nerves. Well worth playing.

kind of hilarious when you consider the source material (Giger's spooky biomechanical space penises) turned into so many children's toys. The alien queen's head is basically a giant clitoris... I read somewhere that they had to remake the original ALIEN movie posters. Instead of cracking open with glowing green space light, it was hatching from the top as it does in the movie. Which is to say it blatantly showed a gaping mutant space vagina with four labia.

Speaking of Alien 3, Dark Horse is putting out an adaptation of William Gibson's script for Alien 3. It's a mix of Alien and a cold war thriller, as there's back-and-forth politicking between the corporation and space communists over the fate of the Sulaco and her survivors. Both sides try to clone aliens from tissue samples, both to horrific results

Is there a comic book adaptation of the movie Aliens? I read a Punisher comic book a couple months back and got sucked into the world a bit after I couldn't stop laughing at how hilarious the ultraviolence was compared with how lovely the art is in some of the older ones.

SilvergunSuperman posted:Is there a comic book adaptation of the movie Aliens? Aliens: Newt's Tale is the closest I can think of. It's a two-part comic entirely from Newt's perspective. Part 1 is all prequel events depicting the colony's downfall. Part 2 is the events of the movie.
