Alien 5: Genocide : Ripleys Back 2008
Ripleys back for one last showdown with the xenomorphs in Alien 5 : Genocide.
At the far reaches of the universe a scientific way station is in posession of the last surviving Xenomorph. when the company discover the new breed they track down the Aliens homeworld and take the Alien back home intent on creating an unstopable Army. Back on earth an elite group of rebels led by General Ripley 8 take action, following the company to the Alien homeworld to destroy the species forever. and For Ripley this really is personel
The alien series is dead. It died with 4. And then the corpse was kicked a few times with Avp. The only alien movie that would spark my interest is if they ditched Ripley. The title of these movies is "Alien" not "Ripley's Adventures".
This sounds like a really bad idea for them to make more alien movies it ended with four which think should not have been made anyway due to the fact that they put the stupid grey alien it.
People like to talk about rumours about more film sequels about a genre like aliens and can't face the fact the series is over and nothing more can be done with it. I would to see a film of genocide made.
Okay people. I know there has been alot of speculation about this film, but you guys mark my words... it WILL happen. They also said there would never be a sequel to THE DARK CRYSTAL, but here we are 25 years later and THE POWER OF THE DARK CRYSTAL is in production and scheduled for release in Spring 2008. This is not the first time we have seen years between ALIEN films either. Hell, it was seven years between ALIEN and ALIENS, another six years until ALIEN 3, and another5 years until we got ALIEN RESURRECTION. If Ridley Scott, James Cameron AND Sigourney Weaver (who is not too old for you dingbats out there, she looks great) are interested it will happen sooner or later. Especially with AVP and AVPR doing so well. It NEEDS to happen. They can't leave it the way the they left us at the end of ALIEN RESURRECTION. I'm sorry, but the original ALIEN series IS Ripley's story. She is the character that holds the story together. Without her the films would have no resonance and we love her! I may be bold but this is how it should go... ALIEN ANNIHILATION: Call takes Ripley to see Bishop. We find out that Bishop was taken from Fury 161 and rebuilt by Weyland-Yutani to find out if he knows anything of use. Turns out Bishop designed the second-gen droids. Ripley, being half alien starts to have nightmares and realizes that she is sensing the hive from a great distance...something calling her. Ripley, Bishop and Call go to the government and make them realize the threat of these creatures and that they must be destroyed. We send Ripley, Bishop, Call, the other second-gen droids and a crapload of space marines to wipe them out. Ripley uses her connection to the hive to find the space jockey planet along with some major fire power and an armada. With the help of the space jockeys we take out the planet or if they don't wanna help we fight them too! The Queen could be bad-ass because she came out of one of the space jockeys. She would be a little different of a design and a helluvalot bigger. Let Ripley and the Queen showdown and let Ripley take out the aliens and the planet along with herself for total annihilation. Because as long as Ripley lives, she could be captured and the aliens could be brought back. BAM! There's your film. It would kick ass, especially with Scott and Cameron involved and it would let Ripley go out with the bang she deserves. No weepy death scene like ALIEN 3.
Actually, it died with 3, it's corpse was kicked a few times by 4, and then pissed on by AVP. Agreed, Ripley's Saga ended with Alien3, time to move on.
I thought fincher did an excellent job following up the unattainable standards that Cameron set in Aliens. Subtract some shotty CGI and a melodramatic ending and you are left with a fine movie. Resurrection, on the other hand, is unforgivable.
