Directed by David Fincher, Alien 3 was released in 1992...and deemed a major disappointment after Alien and Aliens. Still, the movie earned a loyal fanbase in the years that followed, with many defending it as an underrated classic.
The story follows Ellen Ripley (Sigourney Weaver), who crash-lands on Fiorina 161, a bleak, prison planet. Her companions, Newt and Hicks, perish in the crash, and Ripley discovers that a Xenomorph has also survived. The prisoners and guards, lacking advanced weapons, must combat the creature with limited resources.
Things got really weird during the final act with the introduction of a human/Xenomorph hybrid, and the movie's original director - Deep Blue Sea and Cliffhanger's Renny Harlin - has now shared how his approach to Alien 3 differed in an interview with Slash Film (via SFFGazette.com).

10. Jake Sully from Avatar (2009)
James Cameron has always been one of the most celebrated directors, and the Avatar movies are among his greatest feats. Cameron managed to create visually stunning sensations that earned billions — but none of that can be attributed to Jake Sully, Avatar’s main character whose name and motives no one even remembers.
9. Sam Witwicky from Transformers (2007–2023)
Unlike in the previous case, Transformers’ Sam Witwicky adds a lot to his movie and is far from your generic action hero. But that’s pretty much his main problem: there’s little to nothing we can remember about Sam other than the facts that he was an anxious nerdy teenager who somehow pulled Megan Fox. So… Yeah. Sorry, Sam.
8. Jupiter Jones from Jupiter Ascending (2015)

Jk Rowling’s Harry Potter franchise is one of the highest-grossing film franchises in the world. Based on seven novels in the series, the films starred Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson, and Rupert Grint as the leading trio and saw fans grow up along with the children in the films. The films and novels were an international phenomenon at the time of release.
While the main storyline ended with Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows – Part 2, the studio reportedly wanted to begin a spinoff franchise to expand the franchise. The producers reportedly initially had an idea that involved Newt Scamander finding new beasts, which Jk Rowling shot down in favor of her iteration of Fantastic Beasts and Where To Find Them.

In previous articles, we have taken a look at stars of the past we would like to see make a comeback – and there are a lot of them! It was too hard to narrow it down to just a few, so now we’ve put together another list of 80s stars we want back, including a couple of Freddy victims, some 1980s beauties we miss, and a lady we’ve only seen twice on our screens.

In 1979, Ridley Scott unleashed the science fiction classic "Alien" upon audiences and unwittingly kickstarted a lucrative franchise comprised of seven sequels and an assortment of books, comics, and video games. In August 2024, Fede Álvarez plans to release "Alien: Romulus," which will hopefully push the series in a creative new direction, delivering more Xenomorph horror action for audiences to enjoy.
The "Alien" franchise has amassed $1.6 billion at the global box office, despite more than a few bumps. Films such as David Fincher's "Alien 3" and Scott's own "Prometheus" and "Alien: Covenant" divided audiences with their strange methodology. In contrast, the "Alien vs Predator" films never amounted to more than cynical cash grabs. These sequels/prequels also retconned important lore or added new details to the Xenomorph that do not jibe with previously established material, leaving fans scrambling to make sense of the "Alien" timeline. Some of their theories are perfectly acceptable,...

For years, rights issues have held up updated video releases of James Cameron’s Aliens, The Abyss, and True Lies, with the latter two features skipping Blu-ray entirely. At last, all three have come to 4K Uhd, and their joint release allows one to better appreciate the unexpected connections that link these otherwise completely distinct features.
On a basic level, all three films, covering less than a decade from 1986 to 1994, chart one of the most meteoric career rises in Hollywood history—one that you can see in their exponentially increasing budgets and scale. Aliens, made in the wake of Cameron’s breakout success of 1984’s The Terminator, was produced for a paltry $18 million, not much more than the $11 million allocated to Ridley Scott’s Alien nearly a decade earlier. But Cameron, who cut his teeth in Roger Corman’s micro-budget talent incubator, knew how to stretch a dollar to its maximum use.

They say “In space no one can hear you scream.” Buuuuuuuut we’ve seen through eight Alien films that if you’re in a spaceship plenty of people can hear you scream. The Xenomorphs have no problem causing their victims a lot of pain. Even though we’ve seen them in a lot of films, fans will mostly agree that after Aliens, the franchise was never the same. But did you know that District 9 director Neill Blomkamp almost made an Aliens sequel?
In 2015, filmmaker Blomkamp announced he had been working on a new Alien project. This was even a surprise to Fox, which owned the series. Fans seemed excited by the prospect of the director taking on the project after the imaginative sci-fi films he had been releasing. Ultimately, after some starts and stops, the film would fall apart. Let’s find out exactly why here on What Happened To This Unmade Movie?...

You would think that as technology advances, visual art forms such as film – including home media – would see a definite improvement in quality. But here we are yet again, getting bummed out over how studios have taken cleaning up transfers too far, polishing iconic movies into a “pristine” oblivion. And yes, they may have once more botched another James Cameron 4K Blu-ray. Game over, man!
The latest example comes via the 4K release of James Cameron’s Aliens, which came out on March 12th. As HD Report noted via a side-by-side comparison, even the high-definition transfer released 14 years ago is more respectable than the 4K one out just last week: “When comparing the two, the old Blu-ray is a better representation of celluloid at a time when filmmakers are trying to make images look less digital.” Hell, you can even see how Newt feels about it in the second image!

“Don’t presume you know everything.” For decades, that was actor Paul Reiser’s response whenever people would ask him about playing Burke, the Weyland-Yutani middle-manager who tried to kill the heroes of Aliens to please his bosses.
Since the release of the James Cameron classic in 1986, viewers have taken Ripley’s summation of the situation to heart. “You know, Burke, I don’t know which species is worse,” she tells him after escaping from a trap he set to infect her and the child Newt with a Xenomorph. “You don’t see them fucking each other over for a goddamn percentage.”
And yet, almost 40 years later, Reiser still insists that Burke isn’t the villain he seems. When Den of Geek catches up with the actor and comedian, he shares his rejoinder to those who called Burke a bad guy. “You say ‘bad,’ I say ‘misunderstood.'” In a...

Marvel Comics has been publishing issues of their anthology series What If…? – which takes familiar scenarios from their comics and explores what might have happened if things had played out differently or if characters had taken different paths in life – since 1977. Now the series, which has included such titles as “What If Spider-Man Had Joined the Fantastic Four?”, “What If Thor of Asgard Had Met Conan the Barbarian?”, and “What If The Punisher’s Family Had Not Been Killed?”, is being infiltrated by the Alien franchise. Marvel gained the comic book rights to the Alien franchise when Disney acquired 20th Century Fox a few years back, and now they’re set to publish the five-issue limited series Aliens: What If…? that asks the question, “What if Carter Burke had lived?”

Hyped as an interactive sequel to James Cameron’s 1986 classic, Aliens: Colonial Marines was a disappointment in 2013. We look back at how its plot could have changed the Alien franchise…
In 2011, it all looked so promising. As narrated by Gearbox Software studio boss Randy Pitchford, a demo of Aliens: Colonial Marines, unveiled at that year’s E3, hinted at the kind of game fans of the Alien franchise had been eagerly awaiting for years. It was a first-person shooter made by a respected studio – Gearbox had just had a hit with Borderlands – and was billed as a direct sequel to James Cameron’s 1986 film, Aliens. It even had a couple of familiar actors returning to provide their voices.
The demo gave a tantalising glimpse of what looked like a thoroughly engrossing narrative blaster. It took the player back to Lv-426, the setting of Alien and Aliens, and as one of several Colonial Marines,...

Fans will always debate which is the better film: Ridley Scott's 1979 sci-fi horror "Alien" or James Cameron's 1986 sci-fi actioner "Aliens." As important and influential as Scott's film was, Cameron upped the ante in terms of pure popcorn thrills, and a big part of that film's success was the character of Newt, played by Carrie Henn.
Living in Hadley's Hope settlement on Lv-426, the young girl became an orphan when her family was killed by the Xenomorphs that inhabited the moon. The infestation made its way to the rest of the colonists, but Newt, using her cunning, was able to survive, living in the facility's ventilation system. When Weyland-Yutani lost contact with the colony, they sent a squad of Marines, along with Ellen Ripley, herself the sole survivor of a previous encounter with the Xenomorph, to find out what happened. When their ranks were decimated by the Xenomorphs, Ripley...

"Alien" is one of the greatest horror movies of all time. It's also one of the greatest sci-fi movies of all time. Director Ridley Scott provided an incredible formula that ignited an entire franchise. When James Cameron jumped on board with "Aliens," he injected the sequel with his action sensibilities and took the film series to the next level. "Alien 3" was lambasted, mostly for killing Newt and Hicks off-screen, but it's not David Fincher's fault the studio pushed him around, and the workprint cut of the movie is much better. "Alien Resurrection" is just awful. Flash forward, and "Prometheus" disappointed some longtime fans but has some passionate defenders, and "Alien: Covenant" tried to meet somewhere in the middle, but didn't quite stick the landing.
However, all of the "Alien" movies, in some capacity, feature the familiar formula that was established in "Alien." Our main characters end up trapped somewhere,...

Warner Bros. has cast an Immobulus spell on Fantastic Beasts.
Director David Yates gave an update about the beleaguered franchise, which halted after three of its five planned films were released.
“With Beasts for a minute, it’s all just parked,” Yates told the Inside Total Film podcast. “We got to the end of [the third film, 2020’s Fantastic Beasts: The Secrets of Dumbledore] and we’re all so proud of that movie, and when it went out into the world, we just needed to sort of stop and pause, and take it easy.”
Yates claimed the entire idea of a five-film franchise wasn’t the studio’s at all. It was initially planned as three films, and he suggested the saga’s author and Beasts trilogy screenwriter J.K. Rowling made the announcement of a five-film plan without much of the creative team knowing ahead of time during a media event for the first film,...

Back in 2016, "Harry Potter" fans were filled with hope as a new spin-off franchise within the Wizarding World was launched when "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them" hit theaters. Focusing on Newt Scamander, played by Eddie Redmayne, the movie took place decades before the events of the main "Harry Potter" films and focused on an entirely new cast of characters. The first film went well and optimism was high that J.K. Rowling's plans for a new five-movie series would go off without a hitch. But after the release of "The Secrets of Dumbledore" in 2022, there has been little to no progress made on a potential fourth film. So, is it still happening?
Much has happened since that first film hit theaters in 2016, from WarnerMedia being purchased by Discovery to the controversy around the franchise's creator Rowling, and commercial disappointments to add to the uncertainty surrounding this series. With all of that in mind,...

The android Bishop quickly became a fan favorite character when he was introduced in Aliens – but he wasn’t in great shape by the end of that movie, and in Alien 3 he was so messed up that he asked to be disconnected. Yes, it’s a movie that’s so bleak even the android in it doesn’t want to exist anymore. But now author T.R. Napper is here to tell us that Alien 3 wasn’t the end of the line for Bishop. There’s more to his story that’s going to be told in the novel Alien: Bishop, which is set to reach store shelves on December 12th. Copies can be pre-ordered at This Link.
Aliens: Bishop has the following description: A direct sequel to Aliens and Alien 3—Weyland-Yutani, the Colonial Marines, and Bishop’s creator all pursue the android for the deadly Xenomorph data contained in his brain.

“If I could turn back time…” Cher sang in 1989, coincidentally the same year that the last great Indiana Jones movie, Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, came out. Rewinding the clock, both literally and figuratively, is very much on the minds of everyone involved in Indy’s fifth and apparently final adventure, Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny, as an aging Dr. Jones confronts his mortality, his regrets, and the sum total of his life’s accomplishments.
So it’s somehow appropriate that the MacGuffin which lures Indy out of his pending retirement for one last globe-trotting adventure is a device invented by the ancient Greek mathematician and physicist Archimedes that might somehow alter the course of history. If our hero gets his hands on the device—which, naturally, has been split into three pieces—will he be tempted to tamper with it?
