12 Potential Plots For Alien 5

Prequel ideas come bursting from our chests...

Title: Alien Ghetto

The Plot: Shockingly derivative District 9-alike claims there has indeed been prior contact between humans and Xenomorphs. In fact, there’s still a colony of our lot kept in substandard housing on the outskirts of the alien home world.

A hush-hush rescue mission is mounted, resulting in serious diplomatic antagonism.

Most Awesome Scene: The CGI-loaded climax in which the entire alien planet is ripped in twain, forcing them to relocate to Thedus just in time for the plot of the 1979 film to still make sense.

Starring: Sharlto Copley, in an ill-advised move that more or less drives his promising career into miserable typecasting hell. A real shame.

Title: Aliens vs Androids

The Plot: A complex, morally charged explanation of why our android companions later became such unpredictable allies in the quadrilogy proper. Involves lots of weighty but clichéd psychobabble about implanted memories and ‘loyalty chips’.

Most Awesome Scene: Several hundred AI units rising up as one, tearing out their chest-mounted ethics processors and going batshit mental at a technology expo.

Starring: Lance Henriksen, Peter Weller, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Rutger Hauer.

      Ripley Redux actually sounds weirdly fascinating. :)

      My friend has always said they should set an alien film on earth. Alien v predator doesnt count!!!! A queen some how gets to earth and lives in the sewers. Her babies drag people into the darkness of the underground to be hosts. Marines investigate, chaos follows. I suggested the aliens meet the Teenage Mutant Turtles and theres a hybrid/mix of turtle and alien with Leonardo getting a facehugger and Raphael getting his rightfull place as leader. But he said i was being silly.

      Not any sillier than this gem: "200 years after the conclusion of Alien 3, the company is able to resurrect Ripley through the process of cloning and the scientists successfully take the Queen Alien out of her. But, Ripley's DNA gets mixed up with the Queen's and she begins to develop certain alien characteristics."

      BenCH - People where said to be dissapointed with the Alien/Predator hybrid, so why not an Alien/Leonardo hybrid? Stranger things have happened!!!

      @metalgatesolid That's a great idea! Also, maybe then the turtles can prove to everyone that it was Krang leading the Aliens the whole time!

      You know what Filmaholik we should patent that idea, go to the studios and sell it. Krang wasnt in the Turtles films at all and now could be his movie debut. We will be millionairs.
