20th Century Fox loves sequels and prequels, maybe they should just stop while they're ahead?

How far can you stretch this? They have done about everything you can do with this creature. I guess they feel a new generation is ready for a revisit of the creature.

The new "Terminator" flick tanked real fast, it may be time to just stop.

Seriously? A "prequel" to Alien? Wasn't that the one where they discovered the aliens, and had the very first encounter with them, and had no freaking idea what they were or what to do about them?

So I'm guessing the prequel will be a whole lot of NOT encountering the aliens, eh? Wow, that DOES sound exciting...

I have only seen a small portion of the Terminator / Alien flim. Not even enough to judge it. I just had my fill of this series with the last one that had Ripley in it. And that was a clone Ripley.

Select to view spoiler:


Alien monster. Very dangerous. Everyone or nearly every is killed.



In otherwords, the same plot over and over. Great the first time, but they need to move on.
