Alien: Covenant

[Sir Slash]

Pearlman would've blown-up the Deathstar. On a Harley. And then slapped Vader afterward. He's like  you MoFo.

Kenny Powers is going to bitch-slap some Aliens.

[Sir Slash]

I guess the 'Original' Alien was the Kenny Powers version of the Aliens. Or was he the Steven Sagal version?

I'll watch anything with Danny McBride as one of the characters.    :clap:

:DD

Was Danny McBride in Gangs of New York?

Rewatched Aliens yesterday. Director's cut. Damn near perfect movie. Reminded me why I hate each dogshit movie since.

That's with all the stuff that was cut out, correct? I don't own that version, but I've seen it - includes the scene with the remote guns engaging the Aliens, I think. The soundtrack to that movie is pretty awesome as well - but of course it was, as James Horner composed it.

Yep. There's something like 17 minutes of restored footage. Shows Newt's family going out to the derelict ship on LV-426 and her dad getting face hugged. Gives the backstory on Ripley's daughter, who died while Ripley was in hypersleep. And adds the scenes with the Marine sentry guns ripping through Aliens as they try to break into the outpost.

It's funny how parts of the Horner score sound very similar to the work he did for Wrath of Khan.

Play Alien: Isolation.  It makes a better movie than 3 or 4 do.

[mirth]

And Ripley's daughter is the protagonist!

[DoctorQuest]

Gives the backstory on Ripley's daughter, who died while Ripley was in hypersleep.

This really helps build Ripley's relationship with Newt for the rest of the movie, too.

Totally agree. From what I've read, Sigourney Weaver was seriously pissed the scene was cut from the theatrical release.

Very true! Listen to the Krull soundtrack sometime. Not only is it also excellent, it's also done by Horner - and it sounds very much like his Star Trek II composition.

Damn. He really liked to milk his scores across multiple projects.

I am absolutely going to buy Alien: Isolation during the Steam Holiday sale.
