Just finished listening to the Audible dramatisation of the William Gibson screenplay for Alien 3. All I have to say is why the hell didn't Fox use this for the film instead of choosing that godawful mess they ended up with instead.

Back when they were making Alien 3 there were a number of different screenplays in the running, Gibson's one was far superior to the utter shite they ended up with because it actually made sense as a follow on and would have spawned a far more interesting storyline going forward. Instead they went ahead and greenlit a film so bad that the director has publicly tried to remove himself from it afterwards.

Actually it's a candidate for 'the list'.  A daft but amusing premise

This is showing next Sunday and it looks interesting, as long as I'm not working I think I'll have a wander down.

Already booked a day off and a ticket for this later on in the year.

I've wanted to see the Ride of the Valkyries scene on a big screen since I first saw this as a kid.  cloud9:

I went to see it at the cinema for that scene - I was supposed to be watching a girlfriend in a stage show at the time...  redface:

To be honest, I wished afters that I'd watched the girlfriend...  noooo:
