I like to bring into view other ALIEN related sites that have information which my site does not cover completly. One of these sites is the On-line Alien collection. It has a massive listing of ALIEN merchandise, from toys to games, posters to magazines. Also, there are many pictures featured within this site. Give it a visit!

And, related to that, here are several links that were posted by W.G. at the On-line site, many thanks to him! There are several upcoming ALIEN related games. Here are some links for ALIEN Resurrection, the game, which is waaaaaaaaaay overdue:

The University had a server cleanup, and shut down all webpages for 5 or 6 hours last night....sorry for the troubles! :)

June 24th
Another ALIEN Reference, thanks to St. Just. It is under 'books' for "Reliquary." So, does anyone know the usual names for shooting stances?

June 24th
Some'more ALIEN references! From 'Mickey Mouse Club (honest!)', 'Batman vs Predator', and the 'Danse Macrabre' book. Thanks to 'An Alien Fan.'

June 24th
I've had a HUGE increase in visitors to my page lately. Thanks for that! Please mail me with any comments. :)

As for some ALIEN Alumni updates;
Bill Paxton (Hudson in ALIENS) has a new movie coming out 'Mighty Joe Young.' The trailer played before 'Mulan.' It looks fairly good...
David Fincher (Director of Alien 3) is working on the flick 'The Fight Club.'
Ridley Scott (Director of Alien) isn't likley making the movie he was working on....so he can currently move on to other things...click here for more (in 'old news' section)
David Twohy (one time Alien 3 scripter) is looking for casting for his directorial effort 'Pitch Black.' (Its a sci-fi flick!)
Newt is attending school in California
Ian Holm (Ash) I think stars in a movie directed by David Cronenburg (Existenz I think)
Jerry Goldsmith (Music for ALIEN) did 'Mulan', James Horner (ALIENS) is doing another volume of Titanic music (I'm serious!), Elliot Goldenthal has a new release 'Othello' and John Frizzel is still Alive. :)

June 22nd
There are only 8 more days left to take the "buy $20, get $10" off from Cdnow. So, you could get one normal CD and have a free Alien 3 soundtrack thrown in. :) It is an excellent deal, and if you could use the links on my page, or Click Here to find lotsa links to Cdnow. Thanks! And get yourself some soundtracks from the ALIEN series. :)

June 22nd
There was an interview with a stunt guy from ALIEN 3, in the new issue of the Star Wars Insider. It mentions that he has the unofficial record for the longest (2 minutes) full burn. I think this is where ya run around with a burning suit, with no oxygen to breathe. 2 minutes! This has to be where the tri...tirnitrocy....flammable stuff explodes. :) The article also mentions that he *was* the Queen Alien. I dunno 'bout that one...

Skeeter yells at me with this news bit :
"The New York Daily News interviewed Sigourney Weaver and she revealed three new projects, Alien 5 not among them. One is a romantic comedy costarring Bruce Willis called RESCUE ME. Another is a CIA farce with Woody Allen titled COMPANY MAN, and the last is a film adaptation of A MAP OF THE WORLD."
Eh? So, it looks like ALIEN 5 is not going to be filming for *at least* until late 1999. But at least she stars with the BRUCE! :) Thank you Skeet!

Ya-hoo! I moved up 10 spots at Worldcharts! The "ALIEN Movies Resource Page" is now tagged at 45th best homepage in the world. All of your votes made me move up! Thank-ya'll. Now, I got up to 33rd once....lets see if I can bust the top 30 again! Just click on the button at the top of the screen to lend me a vote. Com'on folks! Thanks. :)

June 21st
Black Vulture informs me that "the first five or so minutes that is exactly the same as after Ripley yells "Punch it Bishop!" and they fly off into orbit and Hadley's Hope explodes. It is that music that they use in the Making of the movie that aired on FOX, and FX this past week." Thank you for the scoop B.V! :)

Also, 'Steve J.' in the ALIEN newsgroup had some info on H.R. Giger. He has now opened a museum in Switzerland, in a castle in the region of Gruyeres. It has stuff from ALIEN and his other sci-fi movie contributions.... Special thanks to Steve for the newsgroup posting.

June 20th
Do I have to remind you folks? :) Please Vote for The ALIEN Movies Resource Page at World Charts! You can either click here or use the button at the top of this page. Thanks!

June 20th
Well, I saw the X-files movie. There were *some* similarities with the ALIEN series...I'll list 'em below. I didn't want to spoil the movie for anyone, so if you have specific questions, just Mail Me with 'em!
* The Music. There have been some comments on the music being similar to ALIENS. I would have to disagree. I have the X-files score soundtrack, and there are 2 instances where it is very similar to "sub-level 3" from ALIENS....but while ALIENS was a pounding theme, Mark Snow uses a more diverse and it just really sounds different than what James Horner wrote.
* The ALIENS. The ALIENS were not similar in what you might think.... but the 'Lead Alien' (serious, this is almost what it said in the credits) was played by the same guy that was the ALIEN in Alien 3 & Alien 4; "Tom Woodruff Jr." Some of the effects were also done by Amalgamated Dynamics & Blue Sky /VIFX. Both these companies worked on ALIEN 4.
* The SCENES. There was one scene that was very, very similar to a certian 'sequence' that occurs in a few of the ALIEN movies....you'll know what I mean when you see it.
* I don't want to blow the movie for anyone, but one main concept, that is blatently obvious to an ALIEN movie fan, is in the movie. It isn't a rip-off, but it has very similar roots to the ALIEN films.
The movie is great if you are a fan of the series. I'd greatly recommend it.

June 20th
I added a wee Coming Soon section on this page, you can see it by clicking on the link above. If you want to see anything else on it, just e-mail me with your suggestions! Thanks!

June 18th
Thanks to starchild & Dan G. for getting this to me! There was a small article in todays (17th june) edition of The Daily Mail (a British paper). It reads:

'ALIEN STAR ZAPS PAY RECORD

Sigourney Weaver has shattered Hollywood records by becoming the highest paid actress. She will pick up 13 million pounds playing Ripley in the fifth Alien film. The agreement means that Miss Weaver, 48, will get 5 million pounds more than Demi Moore, who held the previous record of 8 million pounds for the flop Striptease. A Hollywood insider said: "She just wanted the same deal as top male stars." Under the terms of the deal she will help to write the film's script.'

13 million pounds is about 20 MILLION US DOLLARS! (or around 26 million Canadian bucks.) In any case, this makes her the highest paid actress for a movie! And the 'helping to write the films script' may be indicative that Joss Whedon's writing just isn't finished yet....or he has been chucked. Thanks again Starchild!

June 17th
The "100 top movies of all time" thing was on. I didn't watch it. It seems that a very small amount of people actually got to vote... but anyway, No James Cameron Film is on it, or Ridley Scott film, or David Fincher film. They must be biased against the ALIEN series. :)

James Cameron has stated that he will take a break from directing for a wee-bit. And folks, he IS NOT directing ALIEN 5! And please, all the info 'bout ALIEN 5 is mostly just rumours, and nothing more. It is in development, but I personally doubt it will be in release next year.

I actually moved up 1 spot at World Charts!! So don't stop Voting for this page! Thanks.

Oh, and James Cameron got an Honrable degree from Ryerson Polytechnical ....umm..institute? I forget the name. I'll eventually scan the pics...

And I re-uploaded the 'Showest' trailer to its home on my geocities page. You can find the link for it on the main page. Geocities can be very SLOW with big files....I will try d-loading it myself tonight to see if all of it is working. The trailer was shown in Late '96 and has different voiceover dubs for Ripley and Call in the scene....It is a nice addition to an ALIEN .avi stash.

Do you have any ALIEN news? Just mail me with whatever ya got!

June 14th
Its World Charts time! But bad news folks, I'm falling on the charts! :-O So please give me a Vote to remedy this situation!

June 14th
Hey! Some pretty cool news outa the 'ol Newsgroup. Here ya go:

This is straight from "the horses mouth" -- so to speak (thanks AW & SW)

Sig has signed to do Alien 5 for a nice sum of money. She also has in her contract about important scenes being cut... and FOX said okay...and this script is done and in the bag... and principal film begins in the Autumn... for a release next year!

This is good -- maybe the this will mean less scenes on the cutting room floor making for a great movie!

A Super thanks to Chantal, and of course to Jett for the posting, as well as those AW & SW (SW...hmmm..) characters. ;)

June 13th
Alien Resurrection was shut out at the 'ol Saturn awards, which were gien out yesterday. Alien 4 was moninated for Best Special Effects, Best Costumes, Best Direction (JP Juenet), Best Supporting Actress (W. Ryder), Best Actress (Sigourney Weaver), Best Science Fiction Film and it missed all of 'em. Doh! James Cameron did win the 'President's Award', and a few days ago (maybe yesterday as well?) won an honorable Doctorate degree from Ryerson. (I'll give ya more info on that later. :)

June 13th
a...4@aol.com told me of a pic of the facehugger box-set. You can even buy it! The site is europe based, and Click here to give it a look! It is actually a picture of the contents of the box set. (Scroll down to the ALIEN section.

June 10th
There is an interesting item up for auction in the Rec.movies.music newsgroup. It is the :
"O FORTUNA"
(ULTRA RARE OUT OF PRINT CD SINGLE--GROUP WAS SUED
AND INJUNCTION IN PLACE SO NO FURTHER COPIES WILL EVER BE PRODUCED!)
"AS HEARD IN THE ALIENS INTERNET MOVIE TRAILER!!!"
PURE POUNDING TECHNO REMIXES OF THE CLASSIC
APOTHEOSIS
STARTING BID: $50.00
The current bid I believe is $65 bucks. The webpage is Located Here and I can vouch for the sellers credibility....I've gotten some stuff off him before!

June 10th
Micheal Biehn (Corporal Hicks) and Ron Perlman (Johner) were in a mid-season replacement show "The Magnificent Seven" on CBS. Well, good news! The show has been renewed. I actually enjoyed this show. Biehn was pretty cool in it, and Perlman...well, he was sorta funny. Check it out!

The rumours are flying everywhere about Joss Whedon getting canned by FOX. Just remember, this originated as a RUMOUR! It may / may not be true! But, you can count that with the fan backlash on Alien 4, his Alien 5 treatment will be much more scrutinized....

June 9th
Is Whedon out??? One of my favorite pages, Dark Horizons had a scoop that went like this : Joss Whedon's "Alien 5" script has been rejected by producers because, "he planned a drastic change to Ripley's character...." Just go to Dark Horizons to read it all, ok?

June 9th
Whew! I've been a busy beaver and haven't had the time to update. Not much news, although Joss Whedon is gearing up to write a vampire type of show, and he is still up to buffy writing. There is lots more on this at the Cinescape website.

I've said it before and I'll say it again, the Alt.cult-movies.alien newsgroup (now 2.5 years old!) is a great place for ALIEN discussion. I forget who posted this bit of info (My apologies to the originator) but it looks like the 'over/under' ALIENS MK pulse rifle has a real-life counterpart! Well, no, not really, but This Gun has a few similarities!

This Site has a few shots of Winona Ryder...but I really don't agree with the quote about her!! (yes, it is Alien 4 related.) :)

June 6th
Ya know 'em, ya love 'em, its World Charts! Help me from falling out of the charts! Just give me a quick Vote. Thanks!

June 6th
ALIEN 5 a go!?!?! Over at Ain't It cool News, it seems that there is a nice scoop : that preliminary budgeting for the movie has begun. That sounds promising! It also means that FOX has deemed the ALIEN franchise (after Alien 4) to be making a profit. This ain't really a confirmed fact....but hey! It is the first Alien 5 non completely crapola rumour I've heard in a while. :) Thanks to Chris Dias for sending me over to AICN! :)

June 6th
A new script has made its way to the Fan Fiction area! It is called "ALIEN EXTINCTION" Read it!

June 6th
Geocities has increased the size of its free homepages to 11 MEGS! Not bad! So, I now have the "Showest trailer" availible. This trailer was the first public trailer for ALIEN Resurrection, shown during 'Showest' in early '97. You can link to it from the Main Page, under the 1st Alien 4 section.

And with the increased meggage at Geocities, I finally stuck up the start of the ALIEN and ALIENS picture pages! Link to 'em from the main page! And remember, if you have a pic ...or *anything* alien related that needs to be displayed to the world...just send it to me and I'll post it up. Thanks!

June 5th
20,000 VISITS!!! The 'ALIEN Movies Resource Page' has passed the 20,000 hit mark. This is double my original goal...and 1/5th of my new one. :) A breif history goes like this : I started creating this page last summer, in hopes of making a quick "one-click-away" resource for tonnes of info I had on the ALIEN series. I put up a version to the world at the start of August '97....and I've remained the most-up-to-date ALIEN news site since. :)

But all the goodness of this site is thanks to you folks; the readers. Endless contributions, continual support and lotsa fun have made me extremely happy to keep this page alive. I've made some friends as well! :) Thanks to you! If I ever made a thank-you list it would be the size of the original ALIENS script. :)

And so I've decided to start a wee bit of a new phase with this page. It goes like this : Do YOU have some ALIEN info...and want to make a webpage? Do you know stuff 'bout the series that isn't covered within this website? Then hey! You can help me out an contribute! Write a html page and I'll host it, or send me the info...and It'll get put here for the world to see. :) Just Mail Me and tell me about it! And pat yourselves on the back while we go for another 20 thousand visits!

June 5th
As Cadet Corn Reminded me: June 19th is the day that ALIEN Resurrection starts to air on Pay-Per-View.

June 4th
I believe I have found several more instances where the Music in ALIEN 3 didn't make it to the CD score. Also, I am making a 'chronological' list of the 'music as how it appeared in the movie.' This will inlcude the parts that I think are absent on the CD. If you got any info or want to help, just gimme an e-mail 'cause I could use your ears too! :)

June 4th
Nooo! This page is still slipping at World Charts! It is now at 51st place overall on the Best Homepage ranking. So NOW is your time to Vote, (especially if you haven't already done so!)
Also, the ALIEN collectors Homeworld is also in the charts. He is almost on the list! Make sure you vote for him while you are there.

June 4th
Sometime today, or early Friday, I will reach *20,000* visits to the ALIEN Movies Resource Page! So if you are lucky #20,000, give me an email!. To celebrate this momentous event, I thought I'd make ya all aware that CdNow has another amazing 'buy $20, get $10 off sale. So you can get the ALIEN 3 soundtrack for FREE if you buy another 20 buck CD. To see what CdNow has, just click on over to the Merchandise area, or go the ALIEN music sections; ALIENS, ALIEN 3 and ALIEN Resurrection.

June 1st
An error in Maltins 98 movie guide? I think so! L. Maltin is a movie type of critic dude that appears on lots of TV shows and writes books on movies etc. He has a big 'annual movie guide' which basically lists zillons of short, short summaries for every movie on video. Well, n the 1998 edition, under ALIENS he states (this is taken from memory, forgive the mistakes) : "James Cameron's Special edition, with 17 minutes of footage, is now released on video" WHAT! Now, there are 3 possiblities for this statement. 1) That Maltin is talking 'bout the PAL release, which is out of print. This is very unlikely, as he (or his stooges that write the book) all reside in the US of A. 2) That at the time of publishment (publishment???!?) they were informed of an upcoming rerelease....or they messed up and should have said laserdisc. (which is out of print, and rare.) Or, 3) That some peon that wrote this misleading statement should be beaten with a facehugger for not doing his research (or not even emailng me! hehe. :). It is an interesting statement to read in such a 'big' resource...

June 1st
More Alien References!!! Thanks to Mikko (space quest) and ....you know you you are..but I can't remember your name! :( But thanks. :)

There is a campaign going on ( a letter writing campaign ) to FOX to get Ridley Scott back into the directing chair for ALIEN 5. Please read the Ridley Scott Petition paper for the full scoop.

May 29th

I will reply to emails that I've gotten in the past few days tonight. Sorry for the delay!

May 29th
Chestburster noticed this today : This years Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3) has some ALIEN content! Click Here to give a visit of a picture regarding the event.... E3 is were electronic game developers make elaborate displays to show off their new products. Fox interactive had a display with an elaborate alien setup. The link should take you directly to the picture from the expo. Fox was promoting its Alien Resurrection game I believe. Thanks Chestburster!

May 29th
Bad news in the ALIENwebworld. Bill Smith, the amazing owner & creator of ALIENS : the Web Site is closing up shop due to money problems. He is nothing less than a legend in the ALIEN community :). In honor of everything that he's done, Evan Derrick has set up a Tribute Page, and has this to say: "There will also have a section called "The Wall," where fans can sign their names and add a few comments to show their appreciation for Bill. I would ask that all of you visit the page and sign your own names. I also have another favor to ask: please forward this email to every single Aliens fan that you know, asking them to go and sign the wall as well and pass on this message to every fan that they know. This is the least we can do for Bill, who has been around so long. Thanks a lot.

May 28th
In a shot from Alien Resurrection, Sigourney Weaver graces the cover of the June issue of "DirectTV" guide. (I think this is like a Pay-per-view movie guide.)

I should have posted this earlier, but on Cinescape online, they posted a bit about Godzilla's design work... I have posted it in its entirety, straight from the Cinescape site :
The obvious connection with H.R. Giger's original Alien designs being made by almost every reviewer describing the new look of Godzilla were supported by his creator Patrick Tatopoulos. "They have sex appeal," Tatopoulos tells USA Today, in reference to his favorite movie creatures from Alien and Predator which inspired the new Godzilla designs. "They're scary because they're beautiful."

In sadder news, Phil Hartman has died. He was a comic, actor, voice artist (many on the Simpsons) and just a funny dude. He made me laugh many times....I'm gonna miss him. Best wishes to his family.

May 27th
More ALIEN References! This time from 'Something so Right,' and more on 'Godzilla,' and a Dean Koontz book. Thanks to Evan, KingNevin, An Alien Fan, and myself!

May 26th
Another Reference, thanks to St. Just. IT is from 'Clueless,' the TV show.

All I have to do know is upload the pics for the ALIEN and ALIENS pictures pages....but I think I'll put them on a new Geocities account. ahhh, 6 megs at its best. :) Remember, contribute your ALIEN Links!

Cinescape magazine has a tidbit (well, a page) on ALIEN Resurrection, for the video release. The title of the article is 'Alien : Regurgitation'...so I don't think they liked it that much. :)

May 25th
More ALIEN References, from Godzilla and Starcraft. Thanks to Chestburster. :)

I also reformatted the Links section....it is much easier to read. I also deleted a few links by accident...so if you want your link (back) up just Mail Me and I'll fix it. :) Just mail me all your ALIEN links! :)

May 23rd

May 23rd
Spike Lee diss's Cameron! hehe. Well, Cinescape reported this tidbit.... Lee Says Cameron "Can't Write" Beats us why, but during in a mini-interview with Entertainment Weekly, He Got Game director and New York Knicks fan Spike Lee chose to take a mild jab at Titanic director James Cameron. When asked whether Lee liked Titanic, the director answered, "It was all right... But I don't understand why (James Cameron) is upset it didn't get nominated for best screenplay. Mr. Cameron is a great technical director, unsurpassed, but he can't write, and he definitely can't write dialogue." A huge thanks to Cinescape for unknowingly letting me swipe this news. :)

May 23rd
This news bit may be a little old....but According to E! Online, Aliens veteran Michael Beihn has agreed to star as John Holmes in a biopic based on the porn star's life. (Also posted to Cinescape.)

Whoa, Starchild did some picture grabbing! Many of the pics are in relation to the Cannes Film Festival, where Ryder, Weaver and Jeunet are involved as judges. I put the pictures on the new "Alien people (even more) Pictures" page, and the "Alien 4" pictures page. Just link to them from my main page. :)

And Click Here to read a text file on what the Cannes site has to say on Winona Ryder, Sigourney Weaver and J.P. Jeunet. There is some interesting info! "Brand New Cherry Flabour" is a definite possibility by the sounds of one bit....and JP Jeunet directed some music videos. And James Cameron also directed a video to a band "Martini Ranch" that had Bill Paxton as a member. I'll post more about that later... :)

And for all those who gossip; it looks like Matt Damon and Winona Ryder are a couple. A Big thanks to Starchild for todays news 'n stuff! :)

Starchild found out a bunch of stuff! Thanks! Firstly : A new picture is at the ALIEN 4 picture page...it is a Weaver pic from the Entertainment Weekly May 8th issue.

The back of the box of the widescreen (rental) video says there is a "making of" documentary on AR included." And yeah, I agree with ya starchild, this is likely the same ALIEN 4 special that was on HBO in November of '97. Or, it could be the one that was on all the movie-promo reels, and the THX released videos. Oh well.

Some info on Weaver's Buick car ad voiceovers was also in the magazine :
The Ad: City life is romanticized in three spots featuring sophisticated couples escaping (example: Newlyweds fleeing their wedding)
The Pitch: (I think this is what she says in the ads) "Park Avenue by Buick. The Power of Understatement."
Why her?: "We were looking for a voice that is rich and passionate," says Nina Abnee, group account director of McCann-Erickson Detroit. "And she is such a great actress that she can enhance the luxury image in a natural way."

And another Alien Resurrection maker is gonna be a judge :
[from Variety] Jean-Pierre Jeunet will also be at the Cannes Film Festival. He is the President of the Jury that will judge short films. Thanks Starchild!

Chestburster has some good news : Just some Alien sighting news - kind of. The Simpsons Episode: "Bart's Dog Gets an F" containing a reference to the Alien's archenemy the Predator will be airing on Monday on most sydicated stations. So alrighty peoples, set your VCRs! The rest of that episode is quite funny as well. :) Whew, I've done alotta updates today :)

For those of you who don't know, Ralph Brown, who played '85' in Alien 3, has landed a role in Star Wars Prequel 1. The official Starwars site has gone through a wee revamping as well...
Anyway, Ralph plays the role of Ric Olie, who "sits at the helm of an exotic spacecraft in the thick of danger. An expert in his field, Ric will pass on important skills to young Anakin Skywalker during the course of the adventures ahead." A picture of him in costume is here :

A bigger version is at the Official Site.

Skeeta tells me that : The June issue of CINEFANTASTIQUE has an interview with James Cameron as part of their Top 50 Most Powerful People list. James is number four, Joss Whedon is #23, David Fincher is #24, and Sigourney Weaver is #25. Ridley Scott is #32, and Jean Pierre Jeunet rounds it out at #47. Thanks Skeeter! Now, I can understand Cameron...but Joss Whedon at #23?? Jean Pierre Jeunet at # 47??? I think I'll get this mag just to read thier reasoning behind it... :)

A slight Alien Reference has been added with regards to the taco-bell / Godzilla commercial. Not 100%, but it still counts.... Thanks to Kevin for the reference!

The SERENA DAWN SPACEPORT is now open! This place also has ALIEN FUZION, which is like a role-playing game based on ALIENS and its worlds. Alotta work has been done on this game, so why don't you give it a look? :)

May 7th
Owen just sent me a *great* translation goof from the Japanese ALIENS Directors cut (on VHS!!). Just go to the ALIEN movies FAQ page and click on the 'japanese connection' link. This goof is sure to give you a good laugh. :) Make sure to thank Owen for the news! :)

The ever so reliable University server (From which most of this page is located) went down for about 8 hours today (in the morning.) Sorry for the inconvience! :)

May 7th
The following bit of news was kindly swiped from Cinescape Online. It looks like David Twohy, who helped (re)write Alien 3, is gearing up for the sci-fi/horror pic Pitch Black with Tom Engelman and Erica Huggins producing. Set to shoot this summer in Australia, Twohy's movie is being described as Scream in space by those affiliated with the project.

May 7th
2 more Alien References, from Jeopardy (Thanks Skeeter!) and Abuse (Thanks Mark!) This section is becoming one of my favorites! So give it a Visit!



This set of posters appeared at Ebay and is up for auction. Click on the smaller pic to get the bigger one. This is the official UK teaser poster set for Alien Resurrection.Cool set!

I moved around some of the older news sections to the..well..older news sections, and I'm gonna do the same to the events section.

May 6th
As Skeeter tells me, 'Entertainment Weekly' gave the Alien Resurrection video a B+. Not bad! There is also a nice picture of Weaver in a Black dress. The movie is also availible for rental in Widescreen. I watched it, and didn't notice anything new, but as James points out, the 'headburster scene' is *much* more noticeable. Ahh, the joys of the 'pause' button. :)

As said before, the previews in front of the video also include 'Prince Valiant' (I don't know what to make of this movie!), and one for Alien Resurrection : the Game. Also, the X-files trailer is the same trailer that ran in front of the theatrical release of Alien Resurrection. Well hey, I thought it was cool. :)

May 5th
The Alien Resurrection video is out! In runs at 108 minutes (1 hour, 48 minutes.) The movie previews before it are : Dr. Dolittle, The X-files Movie, The Firestorm home video, Bullworth and another one I think. I'll have a review of the movie up soon! So send me your reviews and I'll stick 'em up!! :)

May 5th
I finally got a rough version up of the picture pages. They can be linked at through the main site. There are not any 'screen grabs' or actual pics from the movie, but more of a 'behind the scenes' and non-mainstream pics. Geocities was giving me a hard time, so the ALIEN and ALIENS pictures will have to wait until later to go up, as well as several more ALIEN 4 pics and Weaver photos. Doh! Remember, these pictures can be sent to me by you! If you have a neet pic that you would like the world to see, just Mail Me and tell me about it!.

Hey, do you have some Fan Fiction? Did you draw an ALIEN? If so, then I can display it for you, and add it to the Fan Fiction page. Just tell me about it!

And on the 5th (just one more sleep!) Alien Resurrection in released on video. Send me your review of it! I'll post it up on the Alien Resurrection review page! Thanks.

May 5th
OH yeah! the "Alien Movies Resource Page" is now ranked 37th in the world at World Charts. So remember to Vote for this page if you haven't already! :) Thanks!

A new area will be going up on the 'ol page, dealing with various bits of fan-fiction. Like stories, art, comics or whatever fans make that is based on the ALIEN series. I will be adding a few links to fan written scripts on the net as well.....so if you have something, just Mail Me and tell me about it!

May 3rd
A rought start of the religion-symbolism area of the FAQ page is up 'n running. Your contributions are VERY appreciated! Just Mail Me and tell me what ya think. :)
I also added a wee bit onto the Nitpic section as well. Thanks to Chris Cook for his help there. Stay tuned for more!

May 2nd
I got 2 more Alien References, big-thanks to Mark! They are from 'The Mask' and 'Whose Line is it Anyway?'

If your dying to see some ALIEN prop pics, then head to Planet Hollywood Online and click on the egg pic thing. They have some pics...but the quality is actually quite bad..it looks really unproffesional. Like 16 colors, etc. Once Planet Hollywood stops showing them I'll stick 'em up on my site. They also have some pictures of the ALIEN in a planet hollywood, that Randy C. took pics of and are on my soon-to-be-resurrected ALIEN series picture pages. :) All in good time... :)

May 1st
I added a fine Alien Resurrection Review, written by Owen S. Thank you Owen!

I will have some more site updates and additions tonight I hope. I should get the first mini-paper on the 'religion in the movies' posted to the FAQ page fairly soon. Do you want to contribute? Then please Mail Me!

April 30th
Starchild clears up the H.R. Giger credit thing : I found out that the demo tape that I have is of the first print of the film. It turns out that the second prints of the film contained the HR Giger credit. The tape I have was sent out waaaaay back in late Febuary/early March.

He also says that : Winona Ryder is on People Magazine's list of the most beautiful people of 1998 to vote for! Here is the address to vote: Click here!.

E! channel and Cinescape Online, as well as a few of my sources, have reported that James Cameron is splitting up from his wife Linda Hamilton! Moving trucks have been seen outside of their house and it seems that much of the stuff being moved out all belongs to Cameron. Reports say that Cameron has been messing around with another woman. I guess when Cameron told people he was the "King of the World", he thought he could have any woman he could want. Thanks for the news Starchild!

I'm also giving thelinks section a wee reformatting. IF you got a links, please Mail me!.

April 29th
Thanks to Kevin, there is another Alien Reference, from the short series 'Red Dwarf USA.'

April 29th
I'm outta exams! Woo-hoo! That tooka alot out of me. So, I should be responding to the billions of emails I have gotten in the past couple of weeks today, as well as getting started on a slew of updates and additions. So, for now I got another Simpsons Alien Reference. thanks again Nootch!

April 28th
Holy cow! This page is now ranked 48th in the world at World Charts. Thanks to ALL of ya that voted! This is really quite a neeto honor, really. :)

Well, it looks like the novel of 'Brand New Cherry Flavour' sucks...but there are a few more ALIEN references. As well, there is also a Beavis and Butthead addition. Thanks to skeeter! :)

I have 2 more final exams, and only after that will I respond to the millions of e-mails that have been piling up. Sorry for the delay!

April 26th
Do you remember World Charts? I do. So please vote for the 'Alien movies resource page' by clicking here! Thanks...lets see if this page can get into the top 50! :)

Also, Iv'slv426 says that : If you notice the end credits, you can spot 'Original Alien Design by H.R. Giger', the credit though is not given at the begining credits (which is where it matters the most), but it is given at the end. This is where I thought I saw it on the theatrical release... thanks Iv'slv426!

St. Just has sent me another great Alien Reference, this time from 'The Critic'......thanks!

April 26th
St. Just coughed up some Alien References, in Seinfeld and Terminator 2. Yep, they may be a weak link to the ALIEN series, but they are there! Read 'em! Skeeter also contributed to the references section, with a DJ's work. This is listed in the 'Other' section of the References area.

Also, it looks like the book for which the (rumoured) upcoming movie "Brand New Cherry Flavour" (starring Ripley and Call :) has an Alien reference in it. Thanks tonnes Skeeter!

Starchild has seen the video for Alien Resurrection (the demo) and here are his observations! :
The pan&scan version of the tape is encoded in THX and is in Stereo Sound (This might change to Dolby for the final release). There is NO added footage or footage taken from the theatrical release. The opening shot to the film is in Letterbox Format, then shifts to pan&scan when it shows Ripley in the Clone Generation Tube. You also get to see more of the special effects even better on the video release (just like what slv-426 said a while back......). The other nice thing about the video release is that you can pause and rewind or fast-forward you favorite parts (letting you understand the film even better.....) In all, I was pleased with what Fox did for the video release. Oh, HR Giger DID NOT recieve ANY kind of credit in the video release version of the film. Typical of Fox. If the film is not in Dolby then it will be in Stereo sound (THX helps out alot for this film.) Everything you saw in the theatrical release is there for the video release(Dr. Wren's death looked even gorier in pan and scan......).

Starchild also saaaaid this : Oh, and one more thing, Alien Resurrection WILL NOT be on pay-per-view until 55-days AFTER it's release on video. (Which is May the 5th!)

I'm still busy studying for finals so I'll answer email within a few days.

April 25th
'Nootch' sent me another Alien Reference, from MST3K. Read it!

I was also getting some javascript errors (that didn't affect anything) when I used the http://travel.to/aliens URL to get to my page...Until I figure out what was going on, I changed the main page to read the http://www.ucalgary.ca/~naflande address. Just so ya know.

April 25th
The cool Chestburster sent me some news....I checked my mail late and missed it! Check for repeats :)
The Simpsons episode "Sweet Seymour Skinner's Baadassss Song" is airing tonight [Friday] on most syndicated stations. That's the one with several aliens references.

April 24th
1 Final exam down, 4 to go! (ack!) but, for better news;
FOX is now airing a TV advertisement for Alien Resurrection on video. The voiceover just says 'Sigourney Weaver, Winona Ryder, Alien Resurrection, Rent it on video.' (or something similar.:) The ad has a bunch of clips, mostly of Sigourney Weaver and the Aliens mucking about. This is for the movie RENTAL release of May 5th. Watch for it!

The Author of 'Brand New Cherry Flavour' is Todd Grimson, and you can get reviews for the book of allotta horror websites. Thanks Skeeter!

April 22nd
Oh my! I didn't update yesterday! What has the world come to! FINAL EXAMS, thats what. I am not going to do any other updates (and I got some reviews, bloopers, religeon in the movies, trivia, picture pages and more to add) until after my exams. Just the news goes on!

Skeeter reminded me to remind ya'll of this : Sigourney Weaver's next film may be "Dr. Neruda's Cure For Evil" but shes playing supporting character Susan Bracken, that's what the book nuts say, anyways. They needed a very tall, brown haired, brown eyed actress for the part and i guess they got her! Thanks Skeeter!

Thanks to all of my visitors that have made my counter go up to 17000! And the 'ALIEN Movies Resource Page' took a great leap at World Charts, moving up to be ranked now as the 61st best homepage in the world! Cool! If you havn't voted, or want to vote again, just click here and please give me a vote! They all count. :)

April 22nd
Here is som'more info on James Camerons next project, this info was basically ripped off (by myself) from EON magazine (who must have ripped it off someone else! :);
"Prince of the world" James Cameron has optioned the rights to Kim Stanley Robinson's best selling MARS TRILOGY (RED MARS, GREEN MARS, BLUE MARS... mentioned last month in this column) as a possible TV series. The Hugo and Nebula award winning series follows a crew of a hundred Earthlings who colonize the angry red planet and through futuristic technology, live to be 300 hundred years old.

April 22nd
Remember folks, a nice ALIEN reference occurs in Ewan McGregor's new movie, 'Nightwatch.' It occurs in the area shown in this picture :

Ewan goes there a few times, just remember to watch for it! (it is obvious, trust me.)

April 20th
Starchild found this out : Sigourney Weaver WON at the British Academy of Film and Television Arts Awards! This is Great Britain's(and Europe's I suppose) version of the Oscars. Anyhow, she won Best Supporting Actress for her role in The Ice Storm. Thats coooool! Go Weaver!

And Mr. Star found this out as well : The storyline for 'Brand New Cherry Flavour" is....;
A jilted woman revenges herself on a man by having a shaman put a curse on him. She is Lisa Nova, a Hollywood filmmaker. The curse is so successful the man's wife decides to reply in kind by getting her shaman to put a curse on Lisa. Curse versus curse.

April 20th
Fun (and useless trivia) Fact! The psychotic prophylactic effects in Killer Condoms (yes, just imagine a condom with teeth) were supervised by the brilliant H.R. Giger, the guy who created the "Alien" and "Species" creatures. At least the guy can get work! :)

April 20th
The Entertainment Tonight weekend 'thang showed the James Cameron 'behind the scenes' on Mad About You finale taping....it seems that James is getting allotta attention lately...

; The £5.99 edition of predator/predator 2 has trailers for: alien resurrection and alien resurrection the P.C. game as well as the Alien box set.
Alien box set! Cool!

April 18th
It seems that the 'Alien movies resource page' is now non-exsistant in webcrawler's search engine. So there goes a LOT of visits to my page! You may notice a large decrease if you ever visit the 'ol nedstat counter. :)
I also can't seem to get my page on Yahoo. I have tried many times. Any suggestions? Maybe you can submit my site to them? (I need help on this one! Thanks!)

April 18th
It is time now in my world for FINAL EXAMS. I will be done them in a week and a half. I will still read email and update, but just remember that I'm studying hard instead of updating every single day. :) And for all other readers who have exams now...Good Luck!

April 18th

I'm trying out a new chat thing. It is called ALIEN CENTRAL is is for all of YOU to spout your interests in the ALIEN series of movies. Please contribute to this message board!

April 16th
Hey, the upcoming 'brand new cherry flavour' might just not be Alien 5. It could be based on the book 'brand new cherry flavour.' I was just testing you. :)

April 16th
Entertainment tonight had a overview of the 'Mad About You' finale with James Cameron in it. I missed ET, does anyone know what happened?

Another Reference has been added on the 'Drew Carry Show', courtesy of St. Just.

April 15th
The URL to see that video for Apple directed by Ridley Scott can be found Here. Slow connection, but good download.

And Starchild was think'n (I was thinking about this too) that the movie 'Brand New Cherry Flavour' could be Alien 5, as it has both Ryder and Weaver in it, is Sci-fi, will start in 3 years, and Weaver will be directing. Ya never know....

A few more things : I'm still sick, the nedstat counter has been down for the past few days, I added a new table to the main page, only 2 days of school left, and I'll be adding a chat page very soon. Stay tuned!

April 15th
Starchild snagged this one (thanks man!)

Daniel H. (The real world's answer to Corporal Hicks) reminded me to remind y'all of this point:

Yep folks, I'm still sick. I have the flu that will not die. Ack!
But thanks to Ripleyanna for scanning the 'hollywood reporter' and scooping up some info on ALIEN alumni! Here are the tidbits:
Ridley Scott is NOT doing "I am Legend" with Arnold Shwarzenegger anymore. The film has been officially NIXED by the studio. Also, on a local cable show called "Accidental Empires : The triumph of the Nerds" they were talking 'bout Bill Gates. And then Apple. They then showed the first tv commercial for the Apple, which was directed by Ridley Scott! They also had a few behind the scenes clips! So if you hear of the show, watch it. (I wish I had known that it would have this.....
James Cameron may be doing a TV event soon, entitled 'green mars, blue mars....or something like that. It involves a colony on mars. Read more about it Here or even Here.
David Fincher is currently working on "The Fight Club" with Brad Pitt and Edward Norton. He is also supposedly doing "Rendezvous with Rama with Morgan Freeman Next.
David Twohy (wrote a draft of ALIEN3) will direct "PITCH BLACK", which starts filming in June;
Walter Hill is currently developing an as yet untitled feature.
Vincent Ward (co-writer of Alien 3) directed the upcoming film "What Dreams May Come" (with Cuba Gooding Jr and Robin Williams, and budgeted at 70 million!) which should be out soon;
Jean Pierre Jeunet is taking a break.

April 14th
The May 5th release date, that Starchild knew about over a month ago, has basically been confirmed by Blockbuster. They just changed the date for Alien Resurrection's video release to May 5th. Woo-hoo!

Any people from Norway reading this? If so, I got a question....when Alien 3 opened in your native country, was it the normal theatrical version or a partial directors cut? If you can answer this, please Mail me!.

April 13th
Ack! I'm still badly sick (*cough!*) so I'll try to respond to emails today.

Ron Perlman (Johner in Alien 4) turns 48 today. Happy birthday Ron!

I gots a question for ya'll. When you enter the official Alien 4 site's "Download" section, there is a soundfile that plays...it says something like "this is straight from the archives, ?? archeology is very hard to get. No-one has seen these ?? in years. Ya wannit? Does *anyone* know where this sound file came from? Like what movie? I don't remember this in Alien Resurrection. It does sorta sound like Winona Ryder though....

April 12th
HAPPY EASTER!!!

April 12
A super-thank-you to Kim R., who sent me a whole lotta info on the "Facehugger box set," including what was in this rare video treasure. :) The content list is at the bottom of the Cut Scenes page.

April 11th
While Starchild was looking at the Unauthorized Sigourney Weaver page there was this bit of info; that "Brand New Cherry Flavor" won't start filming for another three years. This could coincide with Weaver and Ryder working on Alien 5 instead....Does ANYONE have any more info on this???

And remember to vote for my page at World Charts, by just clicking Here!! Lets see if this page can break the "80th" place barrier! Thanks, it would be great if you could vote. :)

April 11th
Please don't email me multiple times if I don't respond...I'm just sorta sick (*cough!*) right now and I'll reply to them in a day or so. thanks! :)

April 10th
Sigourney does the bunny hop! This info was snagged by Starchild form the alt.fan.sig-weaver newsgroup:
TUESDAY, THE statuesque Sigourney Weaver
wants you to bring your kids to join a Bunny Hop to
raise money for the Society of Sloan-Kettering
Cancer Center. Guests include "The Broadway
Kids'' \227 noteworthy young stars singing hit songs
from "Annie'' and "Beauty and the Beast'' \227 plus
Big Apple Circus stars, ballerinas from the School
of American Ballet, huggable clown "Silly Billy,''
Alex and his Dancing Poodles, Kevin Kruger and
his Party Kidz, and more. There's a parade from the
Plaza Hotel on Fifth Avenue and 59th Street to FAO
Schwarz.

April 10th
Both my TV-guide and Mark's TV guide for the week say that Alien Resurrection will be released on video on April 28th...But I'd still go with the May 5th date. As Starchild points out; Anastasia is getting all of Fox's attention for the April 28th release.

April 10th
I saw the movie 'Nightwatch' (with Obi-wan...err..Ewan McGregor) last night, and it had a wee Aliens reference. While Ewan is looking at a bottle with some phermeldihyde (sp?) he starts to look closely at it like Burke in ALIENS in the Med-lab. Then, he quickly puts his own hand on his face like a facehugger, and stumbles back! It was sorta short, like 5 seconds, but funny.

April 10th
More References have been added, regarding MST3K. Thanks 'manofpern.'

April 10th
You know the new picture that I put up of an Alien 3 cut-scene? The one with Junior and the Alien? This one? Well, it is actually a 'reverse' picture, the left should be right and the right should be left. (Junior should be on the right looking left.) Just so you all know. :)

April 9th
The VHS widescreen movies list page has Alien Resurrection as being availible on May 27th. This is likely for purchase, and not rental. Cool! This page has proven reliable before.... :)

April 9th
Wow! A new main index header-picture-type thing. Beleive it or not, that was the first change since I started this page like 9 months ago.

2 new sections will soon be on the FAQ Page. They are :
"Religious symbolism" (primarily on Alien 3---Thanks Eric!),
and the "blooper list."
Yeah, the blooper list is the same thing that is on a few FAQ bits and lists that are around. But I'll make a nice list of "boo-boos" in the films. (Like Ripley's headset moving around, editing mistakes, etc.) Feel free to contribute by Mailing me with whatever info ya got!

April 8th
All the TV References are in alphabetical order.

I have uploaded the Alien 4 and Alien 3 picture pages to geocities, but have to work a few things out with that....in a week they should all be up. Oh, and tip of the day: DO NOT use geocities in the day. Use it later at night...'cause it can be SLOW!!

April 8th
Ok! I added a scan of the ALIEN cutting of Junior. This scene was deleted from ALIEN 3, but made it into a 2 page spread in "Horrorzone" magazine...I'll get the exact number later. The original scan was HUGE (well, like the size of 2 pages) so I skimmed it down a bit....Just take a look at the Cut Scenes page, and go the the ALIEN 3 summaries!! This picture is credited to "Amalgamated Dynamics." These dudes did the Alien costume and design things. So, it is official...(please don't sue!)

April 7th
I added some references from Japan (thanks Owen!), from Red Dwarf (thanks St. Just!), and a few that were on WYSWD:A (Thanks MP!)

April 7th
I added a bit more Alien 3 info, like some more offenses. These sorta came from a reliable dude, and the offense does fit the person. More info this would be great! Anyway, off to the Alien 3 People page!

April 7th
Geocities is slow! I can't seem to make a new page. Until then, the picture pages will be offline. :( But, I did scan a nice pic of a deleted scene, that shows Junior with the Alien behind him. I'll get that up, and the storyboards of another deleted scene up as soon as I can. Thanks for visiting! :)

April 6th
The TV show "The Magnificent Seven" has Michael Biehn (Hicks) and Ron Perlman (Johner) as main stars. The show isn't too bad either! Check it out! (It is a cool like western type 'o show.)

This site will pass 15,000 hits today! Thanks to all who have taken a peek at the ALIEN movies resource page! (and extra thanks to contributors :) So, who will be lucky visitor # 15,000?

April 6th
Do you folks know Worldcharts? Well, I do. They are a big, big entertainment chart page that categorizes ...well...entertaiment related things, like music albums and TV. They just started to catergorize the 'worlds best homepages' (not biggee internet pages, but homepages) and my page, the "ALIEN Movies Resource Page", managed to hit #80! Well, that made me happy for a day. :) Thanks to all who visit & contribute!

So hey! take a visit to the Homepage Worldcharts, and please give me a few votes! ('cause that will make me happy for a week! :)

April 5th
Paul Reiser and James Cameron to team up!!!!
Well, not really. BUT, James Cameron will make an appearance as himself on the season finale of 'Mad About You,' which Paul Reiser stars in. For those of you that don't know (how could you!) Paul Reiser played "Carter J. Burke" in ALIENS, which James (king of the world) Cameron directed. The finale is set to air on May 19th.

Think of the potential for an ALIENS reference! :)

April 5th
I added a great Alien Resurrection review by Chris D. over on the Alien 4 Review page.

April 5th
I added a few more Bill Paxton links on the Links Page

April 5th
Do you have any News, Comments on my website (to improve it!), pictures, or even cash donations you would like to send me? Then just give me an e-mail and I'll respond back! Thanks!

Quote of the day : "There's a little Carter J. Burke in all of us" -- Daniel H.

April 4th
The CDnow special is almost over! It ends at like 6AM on Monday. The special is this : Buy $20 bucks, get $10 bucks off. So, you could buy the ALIENS soundtrack and the ALIEN 3 soundtrack...and and then get that ALIEN 3 soundtrack for free! Remember, there are also the Alien Resurrection and the Alien Trilogy soundtracks are availible too! So get 'em! :)"

April 4th
Since I need some room on my Uni server space, I'm gonna take down the picture page for ALIENS...and I'll have it back up in a week or so with pictures from Alien, Alien 3 and Alien 4. The new pictures pages will be stuck on a geocities site, so they can have ALOTTA room for pics. I will try to steer away from pics from the movies, and rather have 'rarer' and different pictures. Please Mail Me your pics!

April 4th
The Blockbuster website lists Alien Resurrection with an April 28th instead of May 5th as the release date. I'd still go with the May 5th date.

April 4th
And Starchild was snooping around and found out that the Alien Resurrection game will have 13 levels. The game is timed (so you have a limited amount of minutes to race to the finish) and it has a 'tombraider' type of view. This is the game that the VHS widescreen videos had the trailer to. Click Here to go to the official game site.

April 3rd
I added another picture of the Oxburster from the Alien 3 cards. I had the wrong pic posted up before! The picture ain't that great, but it is the 4rth one down in the Cut scenes - Alien 3 section. I also added a brief written description of the OX scene from the guy who did the storyboards for Alien 3. Cool!

April 3rd
Starchild picked this up from THE UNAUTHORIZED SIGOURNEY WEAVER PAGE;
"Brand New Cherry Flavor" is apparently the film that will be Sigourney's directing debut and will star WInona Ryder. The plot will supposedly pertain to vampires living in Hollywood.
I don't know if this one is true....

April 3rd
While flipping through a few older magazines that came out when ALIEN 3 was being made, I found the following tidbits : In an older 'Starlog' mag, (Batman returns symbol on the cover) they published storyboards for Alien 3. A few storyboard strips showed a deleted scene, while another strip showed a scene that wasn't filmed, but must have made it to the script stage! (I can see why it was cut... :) I'll take 'em to a scanner and put them up in a few days.
Also, an old magazine (that I can't remember the name) has a nice picture of the Alien behind Junior, before he runs into the waste disposal unit. This is another Cut Scene from Alien 3. Its a fairly big pic, I hope I can scan it with good quality.

April 2nd
Yikes! I'm updating again today! :) 'Orbita' sent me a few more references, for MST3K and MAD magazine. I will also make the 'tv references' in alphabetical order, just so it is easier to read. So take a look at The Referenecs!

April 2nd
For all the people who have emailed me : I'm sorry for the delay on email responses, I'll answer them all today.

And folks, I do not have Joss Whedon's email address, So please don't ask me for it! :)

April 2nd
"Iv'slv426" recently saw Alien Resurrection via satelite at his home, and noticed a few things regarding the Pan and Scan version (tv format); [I didn't know it was available for broadcast with a 'dish now!]
The first few minutes (DNA mix intro and the first Auriga flyby) will be in letterbox, while the rest was converted to Pan and Scan. As well, the special effects are more noticiable on TV than in the movie theater (That could be good or bad, depending if you liked them the first time around!) Thanks Iv-slv426!

April 1st
In an interview with CNN last night, Sigouney Weaver has stated she will no longer be involved with Alien 5. This occured only moments after Brandywine (the production company that made the previous films) officially split from Fox. Why the split? Well, it looks like Joss Whedon has signed with FOX to write the next of 3 ALIEN films!
Click here for the FULL story!

April 1st
YA remember the Claylien resurrection spoof that MAdtv aired? Want to see it? Well, it looks like there is a sorta good chance it will be repeated! Starchild mailed 'em, and this is the response from an official dude at MADtv:
" The episode in question has not been rescheduled yet. It will probably air sometime this summer. Check again in late June to see if we have locked down an airdate yet."

April 1st
Alien Resurrection will be encoded in Dolby Digital, as Starchild found listed at the official site. So, if you have a Dolby decoder system, you'll get some great sound!

Ah! The brand new The Complete ALIENS companion book has been delayed a few weeks in release. So, if you order it, it'll be shipped the moment it is released now at Amazon.com. Now, what else is released in a month or so? :)

And there is a fixed picture of Sigourney in Diamond Studded Ray-bans from the March 30th news. :) (I can't view it with Netscape 3.*, try shudder Internet Explorer shudder if you can't see the pic.)

March 31st
I now have a Merchandise section, with links to places to order ALIEN soundtracks, movies and books. Give it a look!

Remember, the brand new The Complete ALIENS companion book is released on Wednesday at Amazon! Click on the link for more info. Thanks!

March 31st
Now, ye all know that Sigourney Weaver is doing Buick commercials on TV now. Well, Michael now informs me that the "CalFed"commercial with what sounds like Winona Ryder aired. Winona has a fairly distinct voice, so remember to watch lots of TV to hear the ad! Now if only Ron Perlman would do advertisements.....(Watch him in the TV show "the Magnificent Seven" instead. :)

March 31st
I've started to make a pictures page, that will have not a large focus on pictures for the actual movie, as alotta sites have 'em. So if you have any pictures of models, or non-mainstream alien releated stuff, feel free to send it to me and I'll stick it up for all to see.

CDnow has extended its 'buy $20, get $10 off' deal....so you hafta get the Alien 3 soundtrack!

March 30th
Another 'Simpsons' and 'Animaniacs' reference info at the good 'ol ALIEN movies Reference page. Thanks to "An Alien Fan."

March 30th
Okay folks, the groovey Starchild searched all across the 'net, and found these pictures & descriptions; (thanks bud!)

From : Entertainment Weekly Online!
Alien tentacles seemed to escape from her hair, while her dress suffered from a bad case of Ice Storm-style ennui. "She's normally a standout," laments Melissa. Adds Pike: "The dress looked flimsy. Plus she didn't walk on those heels too well."

Sigourney also got the award for "Worst walk-on appearance at the Oscars" from Entertainment Weekly.

The next few pics are of Sigourney Weaver and Winona Ryder, they can be found at the Hollywood Online website;
   
Hey, what about me? I gave birth to a friggin' ALIEN this year!"
Yes, indeed, Sigourney birthed an ugly ol' alien this year, who then got sucked out of a spacecraft window drop by drop. How come we can't sic Sigourney on Barney, then? She'd dispatch him in no time. Anyway, Sig wore an architectonic outfit with these wild high heels that had the whole audience praying she wouldn't fall off. A delight as always.
Fashion Score: 9 Hair/Accessories: 8 Party Etiquette: 9 Ability to re-cut outfit into lifeboat or parachute: 10 AVERAGE SCORE: 9

"Paging Brad Pitt . . Mr. Pitt, single woman spotted in aisle five . ." She's elfin, she's petite, she's pretty and she's SINGLE! Good ol' Winona hangin' out at Morton's looking glamorous and adorable as ever. Why wasn't she nominated, huh? Or even a presenter? Let's make the Academy give us more Winona. In fact, let's make someone cast Winona AS Leonardo in his next movie. Ever seen 'em in the same room together?

I added another reference to the Reference section, from St. Just regarding a certain Koontz book....

March 29th
As reported at Weyland Yutani Special Weapons Division Aliens, the new issue of Cinefex (#73) has a nice 19 pages on Alien Resurrection. It is a must have! Why? Well, just go Here for more info! :)

March 29th
Okay, this message is kinda important to me, so please read it. :)
It has come to my attention that a few websites are taking images and information from this news page, and claiming it as their own. Now, I can appreciate why this would happen, it could be sent to you by another internet surfer, and usually I would just let it go, but one specific website (you know who you are) directly uses images from this news page to theirs. Many, if not the majority of the images, such as the official rental and video release posters of Alien 4, have been sent to me by private individuals....for use specifically on my page. I give credit wherever I can. I don't want to sound like a weenie, but hey, a few of these pictures are meant for my use on my page; I have permission from the 'scanner' of the images.....do you see what I mean? At the very *least,* if you use some info I wrote here, provide a link back to my site, or ask to reproduce the images, and give credit. I spend allota time and effort making this page what it is, and it does get me quite upset to see the work and efforts (of others) that are displayed on my site, going uncredited on other sites. As well, the written material is done by me, and copyrighted by me; this may not specifically pertain to the general news area, but it does to the other content on my site. Please keep that in mind.

Thank you for listening. Now back to the news!

March 29th
Here are a few cool tidbits in the world of ALIEN courtesy of Starchild;
A recent show was talking to stars who do TV commercials, and Sigourney Weaver said she does voice-overs for the Buick commercials. So the next time you see a Buick ad on TV, it could be Sigourney's voice!

FOX is spending over $1.7 million dollars on advertising for the video release for Alien Resurrection. Whew! I wonder if that will sell videos...

And folks, the OFFICIAL release date for the VIDEO rentals is MAY the 5th. Got it?! This is information from the biggee distribution websites!

And here is a picture of Ripley at the Oscars. This is from the 'Entertainment Tonight' website, and no, she does not have her Diamond Studded Ray-bans from Harry Winston on. :)

March 29th
There is another reference added Here, from the playstation game 'resident evil 2', thankya Lonekatz!

March 28th
I added an Alien reference from 'cartoon planet' in the References section. Thanks to LoneKatz!

March 27th
Okay! I reformatted a news 'thang, everything this year in ALIEN news is now at Old News page 3. You can also check out even older news (from August of 1997) from the links at the bottem of this page. I kept on a chunk of this month to the new news page, just so everyone can catch up. All the images can be found on the old news pages....but when I do move most of the images away on a separate pictures account (at geocities) you'll likely see a buncha broken links. But not for now!

I also deleted about 800K of unused html, .jpgs and .gifs from my uni server. If you find a missing image / link / whatever, please e-mail me and I'll fix it ASAP.

While cleaning up my hard drive, I found a picture of Alien Resurrection composer John Frizzell. For more information on him, and the picture just go to the Alien Resurrection music page. I also added a picture of the Cd cover. (I can't recall where I got the image from....) Did I mention you could order the CD there as well? :)

One last thing; please don't bookmark this page, as It may change its URL again in a few days (or more.) Thanks!

March 27th
Don't adjust your sets! I just readjusted the news page format. Later tonight I'll put most of the news on this page (January 1998 - March 1998) in the News Archives. I will then quickly make up a picture page (at geocities) to hold all the pics (and more!) There may be a few layout differences between Internet Explorer and Netscape....but nothing big.

March 27th
Hey folks, you know those CDnow symbols I got on my page now? Well, here is a reason to use 'em...There is actually an amazing deal whereby if you buy $20 bucks worth of Cds 'n stuff, you get $10 off the order. No, I'm serious. Give it a look! But remember, that special is ONLY in place until March 30th! Only a few more days! So please use the link at my Alien 3 Music page, or the wee ones above. :)

I mean, Come ON... the Alien 3 soundtrack is only $8.49! This is the Cheapest it will every be! So help out Goldenthal and get it. :)

March 26th
I think the release date of the Alien Resurrection Laserdisc is May 27th, for those of you who are interested. :)

March 26th
Oh yeah, Sigourney Weaver was at the Oscars...she presented an award, I forget which one. She wore 'diamond studded ray-bans' from H. Winston as well. Pricey!

March 26th
Super-Starchild sent me a few scans of the OFFICIAL video release posters for Alien Resurrection. Just click on the smaller picture for the larger one. And for those folks who think this news section is TOOO BIGGG.. you're right! I'll make a new one, and transfer the pics to the picture section at the end of this month. Thanks for your patience! :)

March 25th
I've added a few CDnow! links on my webpage. These are a special link from my page to the biggee CDnow one. Please use it to order 'stuff! AND get the Alien 3 soundtrack from them! It is only $8.49! (As well as the movies.) Just go to my Alien 3 music page and use the Cdnow link there. Why the links? I get a wee (wee) commision, and If I get enough orders through my page, I'll use the accumlated 'commision' as a contest for a free Cd / movie from this page! (Or something sorta similar.) So please use the CDnow links!
Music!

MOVIES!

March 24th

* Best Costumes
* Best Direction (JP Juenet)
* Best Supporting Actress (W. Ryder)
* Best Actress (Riple...err Sigourney Weaver)
* Best Science Fiction Film
It should be able to 'nab a few.

The biggee retailer list now has Alien : Resurrection set for video RENTAL release on May 5th...just like what Starchild told me a long time ago :)

The Alien Resurrection demo video is making its way through all the video retailers now!

I will add a few more references that have been kindly snagged from the Special Weapons Division site. Great site! Give it a peek!

And of Course, James Cameron, the dude who directed ALIENS as well as a little boat movie, had his "TITANIC" win 11 academy awards, including Best picture, best director, and most of the sound and visual effects awards. Way to go Jim!

March 23rd
I added some pictures of the ALIEN 3 cutscenes from the Alien 3 cards. They are at the Cut Scenes Main page and even more can be found within the Alien 3 section. Enjoy!

March 23rd
More TV References have been added, courtesy of Mark. Thanks Bud!

here is some great news from the Alt.cult-movie.alien newsgroup : That a new book, titled "The Complete Aliens companion" at Amazon Bookstore. This is written by Paul Sammon, who also wrote "Future Noir : The Making of Blade Runner" which is a fantastic and *must have* resource of info for that movie. (I have it, and it is great.) The new book is a paperback, 320 pages, published by Harper Prism, ISBN 0061053856. It is to be published on April 1, 1998. Cool! Click Here for more. This should be a good one! (Thanks to Jack M. For the newsgroup posting. :)

March 22nd
Okay folks, I added another 'Anamaniacs' reference to the brand-spanking new References section. Thanks to Kdawg!
As well, I hope to add an ALIEN series games section (for emulators 'n the games, nothing ground breaking!) as well as making a picture section for all the .jpgs and .gifs I've been stashing for years....as Geocities just doubled the homepage space to 6 megs! (that is bigger than my entire University server space!

March 22nd
A big thanks to Kdawg for the newz logo. Tops! His page is tops also. Give it a looksie at FIORINA 161

March 22nd
Whew! I think I'm caught up in emails. I also added a somewhat rough version of my ALIEN series References page. However, I need your help! Please contribute by Mailing Me with any info...after you visit the References page. :)

March 20th
Okay folk, I have a massive mid-term today, so I'll answer all the e-mails later in the day. (Sorry for the delay.)

And, the "Alien 5 script segment" which was posted to the alt.cult-movie.alien newsgroup a week ago (my server never picked it up) is fake. Very fake. Nothing but fake. So don't believe any rumour site that says that it is the 'real thing.'

Canada's 'Space Channel' will be airing "ALIENS" on Saturday (check local listings canuncks!), and if it is similar to the last time ALIENS was aired on this channel, it will be the 'TV directors cut version,' which includes the 'Sentry Guns,' 'Daughter,' and 'First name' scenes. Check it out!

As well, the University Server was down for several hours last night, so blame it on them if this page was 'nonexistant' for that time. :)

AND I'll try and make it to a scanner today, to add a few pictures to the 'cutscenes Alien 3' section. Whew!

March 17th
Whew! It snowed 38 centimeters overnight and all schools (And even University woo-hoo!) was cancelled. So I had a coupla minutes to spare, so I basically finished the "Alien references" section, and will put that up at the end of the week. For now, just go to Weyland Yutani Special Weapons Division : Alieins, as this page has many of the pictures of the references (mine will be a basic list,) and a good chunk of the same reference material. Give it a peek!

As well, I added some pictures to the Alien 3 People page, with about 5 more prisoner pics to come....at the end of the week. I will also include links to all the Alien 3 person pictures at the official Alien 4 site, so you wont' have to log-in all the time to the sllooww "Alien Experience" section. Ok! I have to get back to studying for a test.

One last note, my hits to this page have gone up 50% in the past week! Thanks!

March 16th
Recently, French Director Luc Besson (The Proffesional, La Femme Nikita) won a few Cesar awards for his film, "The 5th Element." The Cesar is the top french award for film. When he won his 3rd on the day, He congratulated Jean-Pierre Jeunet (Alien IV) for his brilliant directing style. Cool! Luc Besson's films are fantastic, give 'em a look.

March 14th
James Cameron appeared on a late, late night talkshow on Friday. I missed 99% of it! What did he say on Aliens????

I did catch "Movie Magic" on Discovery channel (The Canadian version), and they were talking about animatronics. They had a clip of "Ripley in powerloader Vs. Aliens," and talked to a Stan Winston trained person (I think)....or was it the supervisor?....Hmmm....I can't recall anymore. But for all you Canadian folks, it might be repeated this weekend. In the clip they mentioned that the Queen was operated by 14 (!!) people. I may have misheard this, so I'll make sure and check later. They also showed a still of James Cameron 'behind the scenes.' Cool! Check for repeats.

March 13th
The camera-happy CT sent me another pic of the Hasty Pudding awards with Sigourney Weaver. It looks like I was a little to hasty in posting the last picture by itself. (sorry, bad joke.)

March 13th
A few days ago on CNN they had a minor bit on Stan Winston (You know, the dude that did the Aliens creatures for Aliens? Of course you knew that.) Well, they had a small clip of the 'facehugger attacking Ripley in the med-lab' thing. Just so you know. :)

March 12th
Thanks to Owen, there is now even more Japanese translation information on my "Japanese Connection" page on the Alien series FAQ page. Take a look!

March 11th
Okay, so it is a month old, but here is some info on the Hasty Pudding awards, which Sigourney Weaver won. Here is the info from 'Sel'...
The parade was barely covered on local news, but I saw everything. Before she could get the award they made her put on a Yale t-shirt and read lines from Ghostbusters. Then they made her act like a gorilla and snatch a banana from one of the presenters! It was a riot!
And the amazing Chantal sent me this picture of it...thanks! :)

March 11th
It amazes me how a crap movie like Batman and Robin can get any award....like Uma Thurman beating out Sigourney Weaver for 'Best Actress in a Sci-Fi movie" at the Blockbuster awards last night. The good news was that Winona Ryder kicked some Alien butt and landed the award for "Best supporting actress ina Sci-Fi movie." Read more about it at the Blockbuster site.

March 10th
The Blockbuster awards are being aired tonight (locally, anyway.) Sigourney Weaver is nominated for best actress, and Winona Ryder is nominated for best supporting actress. (Both in a Sci-fi series.) Check out the Blockbuster website for more info.

March 9th
Whoa...I got some cut-and-pasting job now. I got this off Dark Horizons, and they got this off the A5 rumour site, and he got that off issue # 36 of SFX magazine. I am nicley copying it. Thanks fella's! This is an interview with Joss Whedon; (Now go pick up the magazine!)

"If I write this movie and it has my writing credits on it then it's going to be on Earth....And it's going to be VERY different from the last one"
"The studio talked about Alien Resurrection as a kind of place holder....they said, 'We want to do Earth or the big Alien planet, but we're not convinced yet that this franchise has legs. So we want to do a smaller story'. I don't think you can do that with Alien 5. I think the time of people running around in a tin can has passed. You have to work on a broader canvas otherwise it becomes an episode and not a new movie. The way Cameron exploded from the first to the second, you have to do that again, and that means going somewhere new."
"One day I'm hoping to publish the endings of Alien 4 (jokingly)....I actually wrote five, including the one that was shot. They're each between 15 and 30 pages long, with totally different climaxes. Some of the characters didn't always survive, and there's a different way of killing the Newborn every time.....I can't tell you because I may use one in Alien 5! I did the flying thresher machine in the forrest; another one in a maternity ward in a hospital; one in the desert; and then one in a giant junkyard... until I finally wrote the used version."
"I'm still feeling it out. I already have ideas, but I write most of the movie before I put pen to paper. With Alien Resurrection, I used the first two movies as models, but with this one I can promise you something new, something completely different from what's been seen before."

March 9th
ALIENS director extroidinaire James Cameron won the Directors Guild of America award for best director for "Titanic" on Saturday. This is a strong indication on which way the Oscars will go. Read more about this Here..

"Wow," Cameron said in accepting the award. "This is one of the proudest moments of my life. It's tremendous."

March 9th
Veronica Cartwright, who played "Lambert" in ALIEN, had a wee (and I mean wee) role on "The X-files" last night. She had a much larger role in the previous episode...and guess what....she was abducted by Aliens. (the circle is complete...)

March 8th
It is slow in the ALIEN world. But, A fellow asked me a question regarding the trailer music to Alien : Resurrection.....; The trailer music to this movie is a piece titled "Red Alert," and was composed specifically for movie trailers. You may have noticed it was also used in a Starship Troopers trailer at the same time.

As well, there are 2 parts of music from ALIEN 3 that did not make it to the CD soundtrack, these are when 1) Morse runs up to the leadworks (when he goes up the ladder), and 2) the great part of music shown twice when the Weyland Yutani stooges are displayed outside FURY 161 prison. (I love that small bit 'o music!

Remember, send me your ALIEN series references!

March 6th
Folks, I added a line of Javascript code to my webpage, it is used for the nedstat counter that I have. (I highly recommend NEDSTAT as a counter). If there are any problems with either Netscape or Internet Explorer (or Mosiac!) please email me and I'll take it down ASAP.

I am also starting to work on the ALIEN series references page, please Mail Me with any references you can think of. I mean, like the ALIEN series movie references in TV, Music, Movies etc. As a starting point if you are interested in this stuff, I would suggest going to Weyland Yutani Weapons division page for a great peek inside ALIENS TV adds and music. But remeber to send me your references!! Thanks.

March 5th
Ya know, it's readers like you that make me wanna do this page. Why do I saw this? Well, the super-Starchild sent me this image below (70k). Click on it and you'll get the big 567k hi-res scan. It is a poster ad of the video rental release, sent to video rental retailers.. (Notice thewidescreen video in the photo?! Cool!) Now remember, this is the RENTAL. As well, 'Scarlett' says that the film distributor has said that the release is delayed ONE WEEK to May 5th. Ya heard it here first! :) Thanks starchild!



Oh, I won't be keeping the 567k image on my server for to long.. :)

March 5th
Okay folks! It's finally up! The ALIEN series CUT scenes page. It includes dialouges of the cut scenes, with pictures (well, not yet, but coming), and a very, very descriptive look into the ALIEN 3 cut parts. Over 15 minutes were cut from that Film! Now you can read about what was chopped. Also, there are links to pages with digitized movies of the cut scenes, and .wav files. Please visit, and comment on it. Mail Me with anything you wanna say. Okay! I hope you enjoy it.

And thanks to JR! :)

March 3rd
Did anyone see the X-files on the weekend? Was it just me, or did that woman abductee really, really look / seem like Veronica Cartwright (I hope I got the spelling right) ... you know, the one that played Lambert on ALIEN? I missed the credits, and I've been wondering all day... :)

March 2nd
The wonderful Starchild sent me the following tidbits:
Alien Resurrection will be released in it's Widescreen Format for the rental retailers on April 28, 1998! Maybe you will be you will be lucky and your rental store will have one...
As well, the the RENTAL street date is the may, the FOR SALE street date for Alien : Resurrection may be much farther away.

March 2nd
The chicago Film Critics awarded "L.A. Confidential" as best picture, while the peoples choice folks chose "Titanic." Which, has remained in the # 1 spot for the *5th* week in a row, has passed $422 million dollars domestically, is the highest grossing movie ever worldwide, and was directed by ALIENS director James Cameron. Go James!

March 2nd
Locally, I had the chance to watch ALIENS twice on TV. (I didn't though. :) The FOX affiliate (KAYU 28 / Spokane) had the normal theatrical release. But, the brand new (and generally crappy) local channel had the "TV" special edition version. This inclueded the parts with the Sentry Guns. I just caught the tail end of both of them, and the local channel put in the "name exchange" bit (so that's how I knew :). Cool. FOX sucks! :) Release the Special editions!

February 28th
Here is an interesting quote from James Cameron, you can read the full interview at the new EON Magazine, which is a very nice site! And it just opened this month. Give it a 'gander!

DO YOU HAVE ANY COMMENTS ON THE NEW ALIEN MOVIE-ALIEN RESURRECTION?

CAMERON: I think it was fun. It wasn't scary though. I read an interview with the director the other day where he said, and it's such an amazing comment, "I never understood how someone can be scared in a cinema." Dude, don't do an Alien movie. If that's true, what the hell was he thinking? But I admire the film and I think Sigourney is awesome and I admire the film visually. It's got some fun moments in it, but it just wasn't scary which sure misses the point to me.

I agree with James!

February 27th
Here are some pictures from "Planet Hollywood" in California (More info on that later... I am doing this from memory...). These were taken by Randy C and all credit goes to him. Thanks Randy!
I also would ask you to please visit Randy's site, the USS Whitman. Nice!

    

    

February 26th
The Groovy Yak's Elliot Goldenthal page has moved a few inches. It is now located Here. Go to it!

And don't forget DZ's monumental page devoted to Mr. Goldenthal. Visit that by going Here.

and don't forget my page which is on the Alien 3 music. Thanks!

February 25th
Alien Resurrection, after 89 days of North American Release, did not make it into the top 60 grossing movies in North America for the past weekend. That means it made less than $33,000. (And that would nicely take care of Sigourney Weaver's total salary for the first Alien film.) :)

February 25th
The 'Call' figure is limited to F.A.O. Schwartz stores. (is that the right spelling? :) Sooo...it looks like Canada is skimped on merchandise again. Doh!

February 24th
The 'Call' figure for Alien : Resurrection is supposedly limited to distribution as an 'exclusive' with a large American distributor. (the name does not come to mind, I'll post more on that later.)

And I am in the midst of some SERIOUS exams, hence the lack of updates and work on my page. Gimmee a week, please!

And ALIENS director James Cameron's "TITANIC has just passed ET to become the 2nd highest grossing movie of all time. (not adjusted for inflation.) It looks like it will pass Star Wars in a month or so!

Never Doubt James Cameron!

February 24th
For you Goldenthal fans, (go Here), there are 2 upcoming releases;
The Butcher Boy
and SPHERE;
which has a release date of TODAY, on Varese Sarabande soundtracks. (about 35 minutes of Goldenthal action. ) From the advance reviews, it is a good one!

February 21st
Okay folks, this is not ALIEN related...sorta. FOX has announced that it is going to support DIVX. this is NEGATIVE. It is like 'pay per view' for each time you want to see a movie you OWN. Please click Here for more info.

February 20th
Alien Resurrection, after 82 days of North American Release, has had total box-office receipts of $47,748,610 Million dollars. It came in 58th place last weekend with at take of $45,543 bucks, down 63% from the previous week.

So, It looks like its final domestic take will be nicely rounded to $48 million credits. Not nearly as much as expected, eh?

Remember, would the 10,000 visitor of my page please email me! hehehe. Ahh, the excitment! :)

February 19th
Starchild tells me that on the Alien 4 game site that the Alien : Resurrection game will be released in FALL 1998! Yikes! talk about missing the boat, fox! As well, it seems that it will be released only for Win95 and Sony Playstation formats. Doh!

The super-dude director of Alien 3, David Fincher, will have a future laserdisc special edition release of 'The Game,' with included deleted scenes and an alternate ending! For those of you that have not seen it, I highly recommend it. (Thanks for the info, Jeff!)

February 18th
There was a 10 minute James Cameron segment on the canadian CTV show 'W5' last night. I found out about it several minutes before it was to air...and it was mainly TITANIC based. They had one clip from ALIENS...and thats it. Doh!

Titanic also is now in 3rd place alltime for domestic gross (not adjusted for inflation.) It is at $370 million bucks. I'll post the ALIEN 4 box office results later today or on Thursday.

February 17th
Not much news going on in the ALIEN world lately. But, I am still modifying and adding on to my webpage. Future additions include;
An expanded Cut-scene section with a more detailed summary, and background on the SE / directors cuts. As well, there will also be a detailed comparison and thoughts on the ALIEN 3 pre-release edit / version. AND I will get around to making the 'references section.' It will be up on the 1st week of march! Please send any comments to me, as I greatly appreciate them!

Cinescape has a film rumour site, for those of you that don't know. They update it daily. Hey! I like this style of font. I think I'll convert a good chunk of my page with this font.... :)

February 13th
As reported on Alt.cult-movies.alien, the 'reported' released date of the Alien Resurrection Laserdisc is May 28th. This was on the 'image' website, wherever that is. More updates to come soon! (Exams have me busy! :)

February 10th
Winona Ryder was voted as one of 'People' magazine's most fashionable / best dressed / (or something material like that) actress. This was in the local paper, I think I got the info right....

February 10th
As reported on the Alt.cult-movies.alien newsgroup, it looks like FOX plans a Laserdisc release of Alien : Resurrection. No news about upcoming DVD plans....Fox seems to be holding back on this format.

February 8th
I added a 'webring' & 'award' section. Click Here to see it.

And this news was swiped from Cinescape Online's site;

Ripley To Return...For the Right Price
Great Britain's Teletext service quotes Sigorney Weaver dropping hints of her involvement in another Alien film, but she indicates that producers will have to pay at least $20 million to guarantee her services. "We are all vastly overpaid in Hollywood," Weaver explained. "But if John Travolta can get $22 million a movie [then] so should I. It's a matter of principle. The Alien franchise is highly lucrative, and I should be paid accordingly." Weaver did temper her comments, however, with demands for quality characters in addition to cold hard cash. "I only did Alien again when they came up with a new, fascinating Ripley. But I promise not to do more than 46 Aliens [films]."

February 5th
Alien Resurrection, after 68 days of North American Release, has had total box-office receipts of $47,474,377 Million dollars. It came in 38th place last weekend with at take of $150,687 bucks, which is higher than last week!

I just got some news on the Alien : Resurrection game from 'Starchild';
The Alien Resurrection game will be for Windows 95, Playstation, and Saturn. It will be released in April, to match the time of release of Alien : Resurrection on video. Thanks Starchild!

February 4th
Does anyone know what is going on with the Alien : Resurrection computer game? This is the one that was advertised in front of the ALIEN trilogy THX box set widescreen editions.... Any news or info on this, please Mail Me!

Oh! the wonderful James Cameron's Titanic movie has now made over $310 million dollars, and has become the fastest movie ever to reach $250 million (beating Jurrasic Park by a day) and $300 million. I assume that Titanic will easily reach $375 million....can it break $400 million bucks?

February 3rd
I will update more on Wednesday... but 'Renee'! I got your email, but your reply-to address does not work. The answers to your questions are : 1) Jones or Jonesy, and 2) the excuse that Ripley gave for the autopsy was that she had to check for an 'possible contagen'; the possibility of Cholera.

February 3rd
Here is a transcription of the ALIEN spoof that was on MADTv....

The last supper, and a pan across the table reveals a disciple convulsing, and soon backs on the table (Like Kane from ALIEN) and a CHESTBURSTER spews forth, spraying blood from the Clay figure on all the people watching…

CLAYLIEN : RESURRECTION

Jesus praying to his father.....
Father : My son, there has been a change in plans. A scourge upon this earth resins Christianity. You will die for the sins of mankind, but I need you to return to earth in a different form….

A form that has been a box-office hit for 4 sequels!
Sigourney Weaver returns as JESUS

AT the cave where Jesus is buried, when all of a sudden the ROCK Wall is blasted open, revealing RIPLEY / JESUS!
Crowd : I thought you were dead!
Ripley / Jesus : Yah, I get that allot.
Crowd : Are you here to give us the word?
Ripley : No, I'm back to kick some Alien butt!

Sigourney Weaver is BIGGER, BADDER, and HOLIER THAN THOU!

A setting having "Brett" looking for his Sheep, "Jonesy" (straight from ALIEN)
Brett : There you are jonesy….
Jonesy :Baa baa baa (looks around, he notices the alien…..
An ALIEN is behind Brett, kindly taps him on the shoulder, Brett turns around, Shakes and Screams, and the ALIEN 'tongues' him….

Narrator : These disciples are DEAD MEAT

A shot of a room, with a disciple, who answers the door….
Disciple : Who is it?
(behind door : Dave!
Disciple : Uhhhhh…Dave's not here, man.
(behind door : No, I'm Dave!
Disciple : Ok, cool.
Disciple Opens the door….
ALIEN : Hiss! Hiss!
Disciple : Whoa! Your not Dave!

Ripley : Peter, You knew about the Alien didn't you?
Peter : (slyly) No, I didn't.
Ripley : WHAP! Ripley gun-butts Peter Don't Deny It!
Peter : I didn't… I didn't know…..
WHAP! Ripley Hits Peter, and he starts to bleed a TONNE of white muck….
Ripley : Great, he's a Robot…(disgrunted)

Narrator : A Conspiracy bigger than the Prophecies!

Ripley questions the 'white' Peter…
Peter : The Roman government has harnessed these Aliens for their military use as instruments of destruction against Christianity everywhere.

a 'Thwap', 'Thwap' is heard, and then 2 disciples appear with 2 claymation FACEHUGGERS attached to their faces. (very funny!)
Disciple : Umm, excuse me, Jesus? Aahhh we *really* could use a miracle about now, huh?
Ripley : (Annoyed)Guys, I'm trying to talk to the gooey robot head!
Disciple : (mutters) Must be her time of the month.
Peter : You can't stop them…

Narrator : Its BIBLE - THUMPING ACTION

Ripley and the ALIEN are now battling, Ripley is in a Powerloader, while the ALIEN is just hissing and fighting her.
Ripley / Jesus : You have my blessing to GO TO HELL!

Narrator : Put your faith in yet another Alien movie..

Ripley takes the ALIEN and stabs it onto a cruxifix, while the ALIEN squirms and screams…
Ripley : Eat that monster!

CLAYLIEN : RESURRECTION! In Space, No-One can Hear You pray!

February 2nd
Here is the latest Alien 5 rumour :
Ron Perlman is the only definite "yes" for Alien5. I would still count on Sigourney Weaver and Winona Ryder signing on soon!

The 'CLAYLIEN' transcription will be online by tonight. I am also adding a 'pop culture' section, which is a section that details references to the ALIEN movies in other films, tv, spoofs, books etc; So send in your 'pop culture references' to me!

February 1st
Well, the MADtv spoof of Aliens was fantastic! The best spoof I've ever seen of the alien movies. It was titled "CLAYLIEN" and it involved Sigourney Weaver being resurrected as Jesus to kick some Alien butt. There was the 'last supper' where a chestburster came out of a disciple (spraying blood everywhere.) I thought the best part was when the facehuggers landed on a few guys, where they politly asked "Ummm Jesus? we could really use a miracle now..." (Or something similar! :)
Anyway, I got it on tape, and I'll give a complete transcription of it later tonight.

January 31st
FLASH! There will be an ALIENS spoof on 'MADtv' tonight. I just saw an add for it on FOX, so check your local listings! I quote the add when I say :
I'm going to kick some Alien butt!
(Or something like that.) Sorry for the late news, as it airs tonight, but I *just* found out! Full report on Sunday...

January 30th
I added some more links, including a few biggee Winona Ryder pages. While surfing, the following bit of information was seen at This Page
That Kenner has decided to recall the Alien Resurrection, Annalee Call action figure. I know if this is true or not...

January 30th
I've *just* told me that Sigourney Weaver is nominated by the Screen Actors Guild for an Award for her role in Snow White : A Tale of Terror. Woo-hoo! Go Weaver!
Thanks C.T.! ;)

The one, the Only, the James Cameron is featured on the cover fo 'Wired' magazine, and has a neeto article on his Titanic making adventures. Including a 'personal' journal entires by James. Very cool, I suggest you check it out. It also has a great shot of him in one of the SUBS, but the camera is on the outside...anyway, take a look, it is cool.

January 28th
A very solid item mailed its way to me today; and that is that there will be *another* release of the ALIEN trilogy, WITH Alien Resurrection, in a box set before Christmas 1998. (Damn Fox! Damn them! :) ) I hope it is the same 'print' that was just released.....

January 28th

"Orbita200" sent me the following information;
*--"revelation" will NOT be the title
Sel also sent me the following information on the "Big Two".....although I have not heard much about these movies / projects for the two actresses, It could work out!
*--Winona Ryder has expressed interest in another sequel, but her new project, "Girl Interrupted", is just about to go into preproduction, making a 1998-1999 release for another Alien movie just about impossible...Sigourney is completing work on the films "Dr. Neruda's Cure For Evil" and "Dear Rosie" but is very interested in Alien 5
Thanks Orbita200!

Big News : Alien : Resurrection will be released to video on April 28th. This will likely be for rentals, although I am not sure....maybe for sale as well! And this would be for VHS video and (presumably) in Pan&Scan. (bleccch!)

January 21st
'Katz' sent me some rumours about the upcoming Alien 5,
--The Title will be 'Relevation',
--Gateway station may be involved,
--and Earth is a shithole..
Now, I knew this already, and the 'Relevation' title is just a rumour, and has been posted on numerous other sites. And, it is obvious that the use of earth will be involved, and as Johner said in Alien 4, it sorta sucks as a place to live. What I do expect Joss Whedon to include within his story is either Gateway Station, or some other orbiting platform / docking station. Count on it! I do not expect the Aliens to be causing havov *on earth* throughout the entire movie....

January 21st
Alien Resurrection, after 55 days of North American Release, has had total box-office receipts of $47,055,595 Million dollars. It came in 29th place over the weekend with the American Holdiay weekend of $305,053 bucks.

James Cameron's Titanic however, had over 100 times better business, now having a grand total of $242 million dollars with another $150 million internationally!

I also updated several webpages, added some links.

January 18th

"Mr. Blackwell," a so called "fashion expert" (come on, some of you must of heard of this guy) had Sigourney Weaver place 6th on his yearly 'worst dressed' fashion list. She was behind the Spice Girls, Ellen Degeneres, Madonna, Pamela Anderson Lee, and Jenifer Tilly. Emma Thompson, Alicia Silverstone and a few others followed her. This guy dude is a former dress designer and is british.... I guess he is known for these stupid lists. I dunno. He was in the local paper......

January 13th
Alien : Resurrection took in, after 47 days of release, $366,255 bucks to slide into 21st place this for last weekends domestic box office take. This brings its grand total domestic gross to $46,619,841 million bucks. It has made over $110 million combined worldwide box-office bucks. (Or something very close to that.) It has a very slight change of making $50 million domestically.

Titanic, Director James Cameron's fantastic movie, has made $200,000,000 million domestically, and remains at the #1 spot for the 4rth week in a row! Cameron rocks! (Now go see the movie. :)

January 13th
I am about to pass the 8000 hit mark. I am amazed; this is more than I thought would visit in 4 months! This page started on August 1st, and reallly started to boom in late September. I currently average 50+ visits a day, with my personal record being 255 visits in one day. (Guess which day that was! :). Please, with your help this page will expand and be so full of ALIEN info it'll be enough to fill the Auriga. I am in school now, so time is limited, but feel free to Mail Me with any comments, questions, or suggestions. Now all of you who have visited my page please pat yourself on the back! I owe ya!

A special thanks to all the people who have sent me info on the ALIEN movies. I owe ya more! :)

January 13th
I added a bunch more links. (More to come! Mail Me with your submissions!). I also added some Jerry Goldmsith Links in the Alien Music section. Now go ahead, Link 'yer butts off at my Aliens LINKS page! Enjoy!

January 11th
I'll be adding more links on Monday, posting another Alien 4 review, adding a few more pictures on several sites, fixing some HTML on some pages, *and* I'll actually do it when I say. Whew! so stay tuned!

January 10th
I added a whole bunch of Sigourney Weaver Links on my Alien Links page. Please submit your sites or other URLs to ME and I'll stick 'em up. Thanks Billions to Chantal for her newsgroup posting of Weaver sites. Your Tops!

I'll try before Sunday to add lots and lots more ALIEN pages links, as well as a slew of actor related links.

Kate Winslet appears on the Rosie O'Donnell show on tuesday. She may speak of her "experience" of working with James Cameron on 'TITANIC." And go see Titanic, it is James Cameron at his finest.

January 10th
Chris Brown sent me these notes about the Alien : Resurrection toy figures (He resides in Southern US):
*They look great, excluding the Aqua and Battle Scar Aliens.

*$9.97 at Wal-Mart (Nathan's note : This is PRICEY! and this is in $US dollars too. Yikes! I think the STARWARS figures will still sell a *wee* bit more....
*The Newborn makes for a great action figure! Now you know I was as disapointed by the Newborns design as anybody, but the figure eliminates the things most annoying features, the sad puppy-dog eyes and wiggling nose! The empty eye-sockets of the skull make it look ten times better and creepier!

*The Alien Warrior & Ripley look absolutely fantastic!

Thanks for the news Chris! Ack, more of my money towards toys.... :)

January 9th
I added a section about the "Japanese Connection" in Alien 3, and some basic meaning behind the symbols shown in that movie. This is in the ALIEN Movie FAQ page, and is quite cool. Tahnks to Owen Stringer for the translation and contribution!

I will also add a whole bunch of Sigourney Weaver links later today I hope.

January 7th
Alien Resurrection was in 21st spot this weekend for box-office grosses; it took in $443,179 bucks for a total domestic gross of $46,092,778 Million dollars. One good thing out of this low take is that it only dropped off 18% in weekend gross from last week. Ahhhh, always an optimist. It has made over $100 million in worldwide grosses.

I updated a few pages around the website.

The "clear alien and predator" picture that is on the main page was posted to the alt.cult-movies.alien newsgroup several years ago, and I think the 'figures' originate from Japan. So if you see them there, Pick 'em up!

Also, within a few days I will have expanded the Links section (just by adding allot more links...duh....) and have put more pictures on the people pages (I hope.)

January 5th
I finally added an Aliens "about" and "Story" section. These are very breif, and contain a little info, but more will be added in time.

January 3rd
First off all, James Cameron's new movie, "Titanic" is a must-see. Don't miss it. And, for all those who send me 'rumours' on Alien 5, please don't send me utter crap. For instance, today I got an email from "a person that is a close friend of a person who works for FOX" and gave me the 'inside scoop.' This included : Hicks, Vasquez, and Hudson would be brought back by cloning, and that Jeniffer Lopez, and Julliette Lewis would be getting roles. And that the movie would open in Christmas 1998. BALONEY! Don't believe a word of it.

Just a note: I would suspect that Alien 5 will NOT open in 1998. The earliest I think It'll open is in late 1999 or 2000. Just the script is being worked on now, and that will take at least another 6 months. They still have to secure a director, for example.

January 1st
Alien Resurrection was in 18th place in box office grosses last weekend, taking in only $543,068 dollars. This brings its total domestic gross (North America) to $45,191,836 million bucks, after just over a month of release. It looks like Alien Resurrection will be the worst grossing (domestically) Alien movie of all time (Alien 3 holds that dubious record at just a $57 million dollars North American take.)! BUT it is still raking in money overseas, and recently opened in Austrailia.
