ALIEN remake

hmmmm can you guys see that picture? because i cant and when i open the link it takes me somewhere else lol thats not good

ok if this doesn't work idk what will [img]http://www1.picturepush.com/photo/a/11505139/640/11505139.jpeg[/img]

Well it does work IF you want to showcase Audrey Hepburn's career as the focal point to your Alien sequel.

that is the strangest think i have ever seen o.O i swear lol my pictures are on the same website, and they keep changing the link into, well, that lol hold on, i will fix this somehow, give me a second.

Many reboots have worked because their is new ideas to improve the original and become better than the original. But we get some reboot success and mostly failures for cash grabs. example: Nightmare of Elm street Friday the 13th My Bloody Valentine Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and others that have worked The Dark Knight Piranha 3D The Amazing Spider-man Good luck to you on rebooting ALIEN but in my say is this "If it's not broken don't fix it" :)

that looks like an urn and egg together. well first off, i agree that the movie doesn't need to be remade, but like you said, it could be a homeage to it. if soemthing like this were to be done by anyone it could end up being very cool because prometheus and its sequel(s?) will be out and the ideas of all of them could be put together to create an awesome remake with a different story from the original alien. Or maybe not, but good luck to you in your quest to fulfill a dream! :)

Alien remake- ugh! This movie has stood against time (not to mention a couple rough sequels) and is still, even by today's standards, a work of art! This movie does not need a remake! Especially now with Prometheus and Alien connected. Furthermore, the audacity on your part to even think you could come close to recapturing the amazing look and feel of the first film, is astounding! Alien was amazing, and is still BY FAR THE BEST of the series- why don't you run along and remake Bring it On? That is maybe more your speed. Seriously, your ego is out of control if you think you should be let anywhere near Alien! To even suggest a remake shows that you are unable to appreciate real genius. The nerve. (Shakes head) tsk tsk.

Good luck on your remake.... You may want to watch The Beast Within, Making of Alien..... man the bullshit O'Bannon went threw w/producers of Fox, as well Ridley, they had to take allot of crap..... I'd like to see Alien remake based on O'Bannon real script..... but w/RS directing, sorry...

@Fleshvessel › did you even read what i said? i said that i agree it shouldn't be remade, and that i would "probably fuck it up myself" i am not saying if i were to remake it it would be better, i am not even saying i would be good at it, i am just saying it would be something i would enjoy doing, being my favorite movie and all.

I WISH I had directed A L I E N!!! ;-)

Well your header is Alien Remake. If you don't think it should be remade- why start a thread about it? You are all over the place on this topic. I mean, i love Memento, but would i dare deface it by trying to remake it in my own little way? Hell no. I wouldn't dream of it because they nailed it the first time. Drawings are cool, why don't we agree that there are better ways to pay homage than to spit in someone's face...

Speaking of re-makes, I think a lot of people would like to see a re-make of AVP. This said, if a re-make of Alien was ever made, I think it would be a commercial success so maybe someday IT WILL BE!

@Fleshvessel ›i didn't make that the topic title because i approved of a re make, i made that the title because my post involves a re make. for all you know it could be a thread of nothing but how it shouldn't be re made, that title didn't support a re make in any way. and its not like i am actually re making the movie, i am just re designing some visual updates like the alien or the nostromo, i only briefly mentioned that if i were to re make it that would be pretty cool, although once again i would probably mess it up.

if any of the aliens movies need remaking its the 3rd and 4th ones, while no 3 is watchable its lacking the impact the first 2 films had. resurrection tried to be something im not sure what is it a horror, comedy, load of sh@it the only good thing so far is Weaver whos very good at pretending to be an alien. you probaly wouldnt be able to mess these films up.

@invadersim42 I can barely wade through the wishy-washy ramblings in your posts. Have some conviction man! You are so back and forth "I'd like to remake it, not that it needs it, but it would be so cool, but no-i would fuck it up, but wow would it be fun to remake, not that it needs it." Hahahahaha- you can back pedal and hide behind shit like this all day, but in the end it's cowardly. You either DO or DON'T agree with a remake, and you either DO or DON'T think you should be the director. Stop squirming and let's hear where you actually stand.

Fleshvessel › -_- i will make it more simple for you to understand because apparently you cant put 2 and 2 together 1: should there be a remake? no 2: would i be good at re making it? probably not 3: would i enjoy re making it? yes does that answer everything for you? and please. from now on try not to be an asshole, i am sure its a hard concept for you to grasp, but please do your best.

Can any and all members please debate the topic at hand and refrain from personal insults, they are childish, unintelligent and a sign of poor debating skills. Also can all members please try and keep swearing to a bare minimum, its not really necessary and is lazy use of the English language. regards, Snorkelbottom

Sorry Snorkelbottom, got a little carried away. well anyway i have been working on the space jockey and the derelict/pyramid and will post pictures in a few days when they are finished.

i finally finished my first draft of the pyramid, i always liked the pyramid idea over the derelict (not that the derelict isn't cool) and i liked all the concept art for it so i wanted to do a combination of all the concepts, its kind of rocky, but also somewhat organic like gigers pyramid. my idea was that its been there so long that its biological parts have fossilized, giving it a very whitish bony look. the cracks in it were supposed to resemble a skull with all the bone segments but my friends mentioned it looked kind of like an egg cracking open and that is also a cool idea, symbolic for the evil that will soon be born much like the egg in the original trailer. well anyway my picture is no match for giger obviously but considering my level of talent i think i did a pretty good job.

i have also been doing some work on the space jockey, but i want to do something different with it. right now i only have the skull and its not the final, it was heavily inspired by the god warriors in nausicaa of the valley of the wind. so much in fact that i will probably change it eventually, but its a start. if you are wondering why there is no trunk, i decided that look is already associated with the engineers, and i want this get away from that, but two pipes or tubes connect with those outcroppings on ether side of the jaw. hope you like it.

To even think of remaking Alien is crazy. It would be like trying to remake the Godfather. Be original and write something that no one has thought about before.

@Rubirosa › have you read the previous comments? lol don't worry i have plenty of ideas of my own, this is just kind of like a small homage thing i am doing.

Lol@ invaders. I guess when you post things you don't expect to hear anyone's opinion on the matter. Maybe you should be on Fox News and not in a forum posting threads for people to comment on. As far as being an asshole goes: only when it's warranted. Now let me roll up my sleeves... That all looks like art school dropout rejects. Sorry but my eight-year-old neice has impressed me more with her doodles of Mickey and Minnie. Stick to flippin burgers buddy. Xoxoxo (Now THAT'S being an asshole- just to clarify because you seem to have a hard time distinguishing opinions from attacks.)

@Fleshvessel › i have no problem with opinions, its just that you were misunderstanding what i was doing to begin with, so therefor your "opinion" was based on untrue assumptions, and i was trying to make that clear to you. if you don't like what i am doing i really don't care, that's fine. but if you don't like something you think i am doing but i am actually not, then you have a problem. and as for the "you seem to have a hard time distinguishing opinions from attacks." i am pretty sure the following were all aggressive "Seriously, your ego is out of control if you think you should be let anywhere near Alien! To even suggest a remake shows that you are unable to appreciate real genius." "Hahahahaha- you can back pedal and hide behind shit like this all day, but in the end it's cowardly." "Stop squirming and let's hear where you actually stand." and i am sure most will agree with me on that. then of course i got a little angry and called you an asshole, so now i am the bad guy who doesn't respect peoples opinions? no offence, but maybe you should take your own advice and learn how to distinguishing opinions from attacks, good day.

I'll repeat for those that missed it first time round...

well, anyway, for the space jockey i was thinking about having more then one, fossilized in a circle of chairs, to resemble the sleep chambers from the original movie. [img]http://i613.photobucket.com/albums/tt219/Moonlightandlace/Blog%20Gallery%20Images/Icon.jpg[/img]

@Snorkelbottom › all cursing stated in my last post were in reference to previous comments, and not new. I also did my best to stay away from any name calling or childish behavior since your original post.

i have been making sketches of the alien recently, and i think what i would like to do is give it a very shapely form like the later aliens, but keep the biomechanical look of the first one, because i find the first one to be rather stiff looking at times (i am not talking about in the movies btw i am talking about just the suit itself because you cant really tell in the movie) i think i will also reduce the size of the head a little bit, not as small as the resurrection aliens but smaller then the first because to me it comes off as a little disproportional. i should also note that anything bad i say about the alien design isnt really bad because i am really just nitpicking, with such a perfect monster the only thing i can really do is take out all the very very small things that i don't like, so don't think i am insulting it or anything lol

sorry for not updating in a while, i have still been trying to get the alien down. i am not sure if i want to create a slightly updated version of the original or just make something completely new, because to be honest the original design is to iconic for its own good. i will update sooner or later with more drawings.
