‘Alien’: Ridley Scott Still Working on Future Installments!!

If it’s one thing Ridley Scott has gotten really good at over the years, it’s talking about future installments of the beloved franchise he started, Alien. Scott started publicly mulling over a potential sequel/prequel a full ten years before his divisive Prometheus was released in 2012. And almost immediately after that film came out, he was talking about another sequel, which wouldn’t see the light … Continue reading ‘Alien’: Ridley Scott Still Working on Future Installments!!

Damon Lindelof would like to Work on Marvel and Star Wars!!

Few Hollywood writers provoke stronger gut reactions from more people than Damon Lindelof. Between Lost, Star Trek, Prometheus, The Leftovers, The Hunt, and more—including the responses to his latest HBO series, which ran the gamut from “Ugh, Watchmen” to “Oooh, Watchmen!”—Lindelof gets a rise out of people almost every time he puts pen to paper. So, obviously, there shouldn’t be anything wrong with him getting … Continue reading Damon Lindelof would like to Work on Marvel and Star Wars!!

‘Alien: Covenant 2’: Sequel Would See the Return of the Engineers!!!

The future of the Alien franchise is in a state of flux at the moment, but Ridley Scott’s plans for the next movie—if it ever gets made—are quite interesting. Scott returned to the sci-fi genre and the franchise that launched his career with the 2012 prequel Prometheus, which spurred a bevy of hot takes but grossed over $400 million worldwide. That’s not bad for an … Continue reading ‘Alien: Covenant 2’: Sequel Would See the Return of the Engineers!!!

Ridley Scott Says the Engineers Will Return in the Next ‘Alien’ Movie!!

The Alien franchise has long been a fascinating spectacle of mixed returns, but observing the reactions and course corrections following Prometheus and Alien: Covenant has been an especially interesting time. After audiences balked at the Xenomorphless, Blade Runner-tinged themes of Prometheus, Ridley Scott and 20th Century Fox redirected the franchise with a distinct shift toward the hard R horror (and the familiar title) of installments past. Even so, … Continue reading Ridley Scott Says the Engineers Will Return in the Next ‘Alien’ Movie!!

Alien: Covenant (2017) Review!!!

Synopsis – The crew of a colony ship, bound for a remote planet, discover an uncharted paradise with a threat beyond their imagination, and must attempt a harrowing escape. My Take – Does anyone remember how director Ridley Scott made confound denials that his 2012 film Prometheus had nothing do with the Alien franchise? Well we all know how that turned out. While, I am … Continue reading Alien: Covenant (2017) Review!!!

Space Is Hell in New ‘Alien: Covenant’ Poster!!! Check It Out!!!

There’s a new poster for Alien: Covenant, and it’s bringing a classical air to (scary) proceedings. The image was released by 20th Century Fox via Twitter, with an appropriately Biblical outlook to the accompanying text (which has already appeared in earlier promos for the movie): “The path to paradise begins in hell.” That tone is matched by the image itself, which at once calls back … Continue reading Space Is Hell in New ‘Alien: Covenant’ Poster!!!

Ridley Scott Says the Next ‘Alien’ Movie Is Already Written!!!

Ridley Scott likes to move fast. Which, for his age and for the kinds of movies he makes, is kind of incredible. At 79 the guy is churning out almost a movie a year, but these aren’t Woody Allen comedies or Clint Eastwood dramas—they’re big, brash blockbusters like Prometheus and Exodus: Gods and Kings and The Martian. He most recently completed the Prometheus follow-up Alien: … Continue reading Ridley Scott Says the Next ‘Alien’ Movie Is Already Written!!!

‘Alien: Covenant’: The Engineers Are Still a Major Part of the Mythology!!!

When Prometheus arrived back in 2012, nobody was expecting to meet the Engineers. Heralded as Ridley Scott‘s return to the Alien franchise he founded almost forty years ago, Prometheus steered clear of Alien‘s most famous iconography in favor of a new story set in the same world. And it wasn’t until the very end of the film that we started to see how that story … Continue reading ‘Alien: Covenant’: The Engineers Are Still a Major Part of the Mythology!!!

Nothing says “Happy Thanksgiving” like a chestburster at the dinner table. 20th Century Fox dropped a little pre-Thanksgiving surprise tonight by unveiling the very first poster for Alien: Covenant, director Ridley Scott’s follow-up to Prometheus. It’s an unnerving one-sheet that relies on the iconography of H.R. Giger’s Alien design, signaling to fans that this Prometheus sequel will very much tie into the Alien franchise as a whole. But the poster also carries … Continue reading ‘Alien: Covenant’ Release Date Moved Up to May 2017; First Poster Revealed!!
