The discussion of the Alien series of films and the props used in them is the aim, but if it's got Big Bugs and Big Guns, then they are welcome too!

Hello all,
I'm a fan of Alien & Aliens, not so much the 3rd movie. I am hoping for leads on materials to create my own Colonial Marine armor and weapons. Aliens was the movie that got me interested in the enlisting with the Marine Corps. I also hope to find some folks to do some online gaming when the Colonial Marines game comes out on xbox 360.
Oorah & Semper Fi. :delta:

Thanks for the plug!

Just remember, with Prometheus, Aliens is now the third (and last) film. Too bad they never made a movie after Aliens.

Oh, Alien 3 wasn't all bad. But it's a good thing they stopped there, because continuing on after that could have ended up indescribably horrible.

Hopefully, Aliens: Colonial Marines will fill some of that gaping void for us! Btw, isn't Prometheus supposed to be the first chapter of a new (Ridley Scott) trilogy leading up to Alien? If true, Aliens would the fifth (and last) film. :wink:

It might even be 4 films! But until they come out, Aliens is still the third (and best) in the lot.

I'm still hoping Ripley wakes up on the Sulaco with Hicks standing over her with breakfast and her first words are 'what a nightmare'.
Hicks then knocks her out as he was the 'REAL' plant the whole time and we move on with the way the books went ;)

Have not seen prometheus, waiting for a directors cut to come out on blu-ray. Aliens is still the best one out of all the movies I have seen. But you are all right, my mistake. Is prometheus worth buying? Oh before I forget in the google play store for smart phones and devices like that, there is a aliens motion tracker app, for free. It does not do the actual motion tracking.
