The point is that it that it further demonstrates what Ash said in the first film. "Unclouded by conscience, remorse or delusions of morality." Aliens picks you up just to drop you further than you've ever fallen. Sure, narratively, it is a complete waste. Thematically, it's perfect.
Great potential from the epic scenes and overall story of "Aliens". To fall so flat as pointed out in this short. Reminds me of the same EPIC disappointment i felt from the direction "Prometheus" was going towards. I wanted to see Shaw get her answers too after all that effort to survive. But nope. Everybody dies in "Covenant". And she was so disrespected by not even showing her death in the final cut of what we got from the "Covenant".
Aliens 3 should have been Aliens 4. Aliens 3 should have been a way to give Newt, Hicks and Ripley a suitable ending. Aliens 4 could still happen on the prison planet and wouldnt even need Ripley to work, just the story of what is essentially the scum of the galaxy redeeming themselves by working together to kill the alien threat.
Yeah, I honestly like the idea of it as an isolated story better. With Ripley, we know we can just root for her and ignore the inmates. If she’s not there, we are forced to invest in them.
I totally agree with this. It was a horrible decision. I have always wondered if the script that was filmed for alien 3 ( there were completely different drafts as many people point out.) was not specifically written for the Alien franchise but was adapted to it. So many aspects of the script would have worked better if it was a different movie not tied to Alien.
Just watched it great pts
Thank you! ⭐
The Alien doesn't care about second chances, Ripley life was over once the Xeno cross paths with her.
That’s rude of it

Oh man, you said it. We’ve got Prometheus/Covenant videos coming up where I discuss this very thing.
That's why Aliens 3 and4 never happened. Nope. Ended at 2. Just like Indiana Jones ended at Holy Grail and Star Wars ended at 3.
I think that’s correct. Do people think there were others? Fan fiction doesn’t count 🤔
FF6 music :🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Hopeless, bleak and filthy....perfect sequel. End of transmission.
😆
Alien 3 was the worst of all the series. Even the new films after 2000 😮
Alien 3 was great for fans of hopeless, nihilistic stories. For the rest of us, it was an unnecessarily cruel follow-up to Aliens.

So people hate Ali3n because of what it does to Alien2...i like the 3rd movie

That honestly could have been the case with all of them. It was with 2, and they say 4 feels like proto-Firefly.
