I've always enjoyed that the advances made in t2 was actually Jim Cameron riding his own coattails after the work he did on the Abyss.

I wish he would get off his ass and give us another sci-fi action movie...

He had finalised "Alien 5: The Showdown" with Ridley Scott as director, but the guys at Fox shot it down, because they wanted to go ahead with AvP 2. :mad:

Classic....

That part is wack!! Almost sad in a way. The song he plays in the back ground("Goodbye Horses"
Performed by Q. Lazzarus) I love so I finally downloaded it a while ago, my ex could not listen to that song seriously, no matter what you will think of that part of Silence of the Lambs. I still think that is one of the best movies of all time.

Probably the DUMBEST thing they could have done...


The movie could have been crap, but being an Alien movie with Scott AND Cameron on it.... the names alone would have been a huge draw.

Shit, the could have gotten David Fincher signed as the 2nd unit director or something and it would have been the Holy Trinity of KickAss Alien Movie Makers.


Jean Pierre Jeunet was busy punching Joss Whedon....

I mentioned this movie in one of my earlier threads here :-

http://www.horror.com/forum/showthre...ighlight=Alien


Maybe the script would have been lame, but Ridley Scott and James Cameron together...just think...

Fox is running on vaporised brains...god knows what they will be cooking up next, instead of giving free-reins to creative and innovative film makers who could contribute so much to the genre...

Grrr....

And to think, a few years ago, there was talk that AvP would never happen, too much shit with the licenses....

I am surprised to see that Jim Cameron liked AvP. Maybe he had just come up from the sea floor and hadnt decompressed enough, because it was an AWFUL movie.

Maybe he was being generous in his praise...or kissing Anderson's ass...

Either way, its high time Cameron kick starts his brains and cooks up another tale of high shenigan whammies full of dazzling CGI and brain frying sound effects. We are ready to lap it up. :p


:D

C'mon.. jack was such a nice guy. So tragic... Poor Rose...


Anyway, i want more morphing silver guys stabbing aliens....

I would pay to see Jim Cameron's "Aliens vs T-1000". I dont care how stupid it ended up.
