||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
NO NO NO that is an outrage.........=/ hey wait a sec.....how did Europe score it before the US......hey thats not FAIR!! ehehheheh anyway it will come.....i just wanna see it on the BIG screen!!! Alien Resurrection is on AMC right now......ehheheh |

previously cut scenes have been added (most famously the cocoon scene, which is also on the dvd). it has been cleaned up, new soundeffects added. Scott has trimmed the scenes (think micromanagement here - he cut out people entering and leaving rooms, for example), to make the whole thing a bit tighter. and it will be on A BIG FUCKING SCREEN WITH SOUND ALL AROUND YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!! |

||||||||
|

||||||||
|
|

hopefully they will now also re-release the complete score. has been OOP for ages. and it is one of the best filmscores I have ever heard. |

who did the original score? it is great.....if you hear it being rereleased lemmie know cos i'll be getting it!!! update.....ripley is twirling around with all the lil aliens right now......ehhehheh |

Jerry Goldsmith. well, I could still get it from the dvd, seeing as you can watch the film with just the score. but I'd rather have a nice remastered version ofcourse! :) I'll keep my eyes open and let you know.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
niiiice! i still don't have the DVD series, i'm waiting for a GOOD price and then i'll get it! just saw the scene with the Alien busting through the guys head on the ship.....but i have to turn it off now.....cos i don't like that Ripley killed her 'baby' at the end of this film. i felt SOWWIE for the wee alien, eventhough he was a killah. Alien Resurrection failed at the end.....IMO. =/ |

I wasnt a fan of Alien Resuurection... beggining or end. And now theres the alien vs. predator... uhg. its just like hollywood is like "ok, uh, we need a shure shot... lets make a sequal to... hmmm aliens was good, lets go with that" bah Aliens 1-3 will be the only alien movies in my eyes |

it fails, much, MUCH earlier before that. as far as I see, it falls outside of the series almost stylistically, on the level of the screenplay itself. I see at as follows: alien = story about people like you and me encountering a killing machine locked into a small space, therefore terrifying (in a way) because of easy identification. aliens = a story about heroes, trying to overcome hardship etc. alien 3 = a story that tries to return to the "regular joe" premisse of the first film and hangs heavily on dark visuals, although the story now comes out quite repetitive and therefore boring. alien 4 = comic book version of the alien story. and thats where it fails, I believe. I just don't buy it. I don't care about the characters (although the idea of Ripley becoming dangerous and unpredictable is pretty good, I think). to me the huge amounts of gore in this part are part of the comic book approach - I really dislike all the splatter in ressurection. |

I mean, stuff like the chestburster bursting through the scientist's head is just silly. I don't want silliness in Alien!!! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i've always thought of the first film as a definite horror movie, the second and third as action, and the fourth one as a bit crap, really. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Great movie, I think I'll see it in this week. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
well, I would see 1 more as a thriller, as the gore is there but always really brief (um.. except the chestbursting scene ofcourse.. goodness!!). 2 is a quintessential action flick, yes - that's why we have Real Heroes to root for. the third one is too slow to be a real action flick, I think. it's kind of muddled really. |
||||||||
|

hehhe..........hey that wasn't too bad!! but you're right.....ALIEN was brilliant because of the claustrophobia aspect as well......it's like limited people, limited space.....and eventually it's gonna get you cos you don't have anywhere to RUN!! i liked Aliens because some of the characters were funny as shit! i loved that ball busting latina chick who kicked ass and took names! can't explain why tho....;o) Alien 3 worked for me ONLY during the first part of the movie when the brilliant actor Charles Dance occupied the screen with Ripley.....after his TOO EARLY demise it was pretty 'by the book' Alien Res - Loved the fact that Ripley was as deadly as the aliens, liked only a FEW of the supporting characters, and some of the underwater scenese were good, but overall it was a complete departure from the ORIGINAL concept. and feeling SORRY for the Alien at the end is NOT what the director wanted i'm sure..... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah, i guess thriller is more accurate. to be honest i haven't watched the third in years and i didn't find it particularly memorable. |
||||||||
|

|
one of my favourite parts of aliens was bishop's white "blood". simple, but totally awesome nonetheless. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Ash already has white blood in "Alien". which works as a great contrast with all the redness that the burst Kane offers up earlier in the film.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i think the hairs on the back of my neck STOOD UP with that.......i was like.......OMG OMG OMG......ehehhehe some scenes in all 4 movies are classic IMO! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
eh, I find it hard to believe the director didnt want the audience to feel somewhat sorry for the alien |

I think he DID want you to feel sorry for Ripley's spawn, yes. |

to make you feel uneasy. mix of emotions - what most good art tries to make you experience. |

|

||||||||
|

||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it's really fast, yes. which is much better - you tend to make things worse in your imagination anyways. let's see if I can conjure up some more gore.. ah!! |

Ridley Scott does say something about this on the (excellent!) commentary track on the dvd.. he sees it as Ash trying to rape Ripley, but being a robot, not exactly knowing how it all.. um.. works.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

thats... kind of stupid :-\ sorry. |
