Now that i dig deep into what AFTE has to offer, I realize that the components of the identity that make up this short story of ALIENS is that AFTE and PATHOGEN would make a very competent sequel idea for ALiens since anything else hasn’t really made its way into the for front.
I say this because the elements reiterate alot of what Aliens had but instead of 80s creature feature SFX has to offer, it instead insists on amplifying the ideas and presents what ALIEN had in terms of atmospherics and tone…and gives small articulations that would lend to SEQUEL developemnet.
IT also is a proof of concept. Rather than make everything in 3d, which alot of it might be, they can focus on things that will work. again, the amount of work gone into AFTE can already be used.
When you think about it:
- You have new and old lore relavant new Aliens.
- You have a hive that is literally the original hive but illuminated and in high resolution makes for a better viewing experience in white.
- you have spores on top of eggs.
- you have eggs too.
- you have xenos and you have neomorphs that act similarly
- QUEENS and neo Queens if you will.
- You have the same colony architect working the environment.
- Working Joes
- the xenobiology might not all have to be explored but at least the sci-fi details are there and can be explored in minute detail
- Global talents can be used to reduce costs but build new business because of AAlien Earth
prove me wrong.
