Must have worked out a good deal with Fox, Couple of weeks back Neill wasn't ready to do it and Fox wanted to see another one.
Guess popular opinion won out.

Why isn't Ridley Scott doing it?
he's producing, not directing. Which is fine, I think.
This franchise needs new blood, imo.

Eh, Prometheus could have been better. Wasn't as bad as most said, but it has its issues.

Reading the article, really hope S. Weaver isn't part of this, much prefer a fresh story that isn't anchored down too severely with set canon and with all new characters. eg making the film take place between Aliens and Alien 3.
Then why would Neill go out of his way showing off his concept art with her in it and then this follows next.

Agreed. The Counselor and Robin Hood aren't bad, either. They are underappreciated. The Counselor was just rather depressing, most likely influenced by the death of his brother.
[b]Additionally, during the interview Ridley basically snubs the naysayers who critisized the film for not meeting their expectations, by saying he avoids reading any press after he was "ripped apart" for his work on Blade Runner. Ridley basically says he makes films for himself and nobody else.[b]
That's a big reason why Ridley is a great director. Directors should make movies primarily for themselves. Unlike artless morons like Michael Bay. I mean, are we going to have so suffer with endless Transformers sequels?
Weaver definitely interested, movie to take place after ALIENS, disregarding Alien 3 and 4.

So they're doing a Superman Returns move
