ALIEN 5: LANCE HENRIKSEN SAYS THE SEQUEL WILL BE 'SPECTACULAR'

[SmokeyPSD]

Agreed, I think one of the strongest things about the Alien films is that it's one of the few franchises to really give the opportunity for the director to leave their mark and offer up something of their own sensibilities. Completely different to what you see with something like Marvel. Saying Alien 3 just didn't happen undermines that approach and on the surface it feels more like a fan service project. 

I loved the idea of Ridley and James partnering for Alien 5/6. One would've been set on earth and the other involving something of a Homeworld. Fox thought AVP was the way to go though  :/ haha.  

Some of my thoughts rattling around about it aaahaha.
