Got trashed and watched alien resurrection tonight. This movie is excellent. Starts out space thriller, then action, then just gets gross as gently caress. It's not alien or aliens, bit it's good schlock

City of Lost Children and Delicatessen were better though. Also, on the trainspotting commentary track Danny Boyle says they asked him to do Alien 4, but he realized he had no idea what to do so he turned it down. I suspect some of his ideas turned into Sunshine, but idk

The score is also great in this context.

The irony here is that there is a Dark Horse comic adaptation of ‘Alien Resurrection’ and, uh, it’s not very good. Edit— in the comic book’s “defense”, it’s based on the script, not the movie itself.

gently caress me...I totally forgot (actually never noticed) he was in Midnight Run and I've seen that movie 20 loving times. How did I never recognize Parker? I suck.Mister Speaker posted:I was never unable to finish Alien: Isolation, the incredibly immersive story and environment always outweighed the stress and anxiety some parts of the game caused Wait...you were never able to finish it but want a sequel? But god dammit, I hear you. I don't think it sold enough to ever even warrant consideration for one. If I remember right, it was kind of a sales let down since I guess the kids these days want action and online play...or something. Hell, Isolation just as an engine and a play mechanic alone could launch a franchise/template for scary games if you ask me (Terminator, Friday the 13th, Nightmare on Elm Street, Halloween) but what do I know? Speaking of kick rear end games that demand a sequel: 16 years later and we still don't have a follow up to Hulk: Ultimate Destruction either, which I think also sold poorly for some reason so there goes my "not enough action" theory. Both these games are on my all time favorite list and are just going to die on the vine, aren't they?

The devs of TH:UD went on to make the 2 Prototype games, which are basically the same thing. You can even run up the empire state building and elbow drop off it.

Wasn't the entire script written in comic book style sketches? I remember seeing a "making of" video that showed that. God resurrection was such a loving waste. A great IP, an amazing ensemble cast (Perlman! Winona Ryder! Michael Wincott!) and it pissed it all right down the front of it's pants. Is there like a smart retrospective that goes into what went wrong? Also, amusing to me at least, I picked up the rather terrible Aliens: Colonial Marines (for $3) and it has DLC based on Alien, Aliens, and Alien³, but even that awful game didn't give any effort to Resurrection.

My favorite Yaphet Kotto anecdote was that he would psyche himself up to play Parker so much that Ridley Scott had to have someone inform him via walkie talkie what entrance he was at so he could avoid having Kotto come up and tell him how Parker wasn't going to die and he was going to kick the alien's rear end for the upteenth time. He was also in the running to play Captain Picard, which would've been interesting.
