# Yes
Ridley Scott is all of teh win. Also I have a lot
of time for Jean-Pierre Jeunet (& Domenique Pinon,
bien sur) so I can forgive Resurrection.

# really? Resurrection was complete and utter shite.

# That's cinematographically exquisite shite, thank you :P
See Delicatessen, Amelie, City Of Lost Children and Very Long Engagement.

# Sorry, but I can't say anything good about AR...
just because he made Delicatessen, Amelie, City Of Lost Children and Very Long Engagement, doesn't mean that AR was well made....

Jeunet and Joss Whedon should be ashamed of themselves for that film...

# Resurrection was a bizarre film
but I welcomed the fact that they had brought Sigourney Weaver back into the film but I was worried about the way they would do it - however it worked pretty well and the idea of Ripley as a hybrid cloned alien/human was really very clever. The hybrid alien at the end of the film didn't work so well for me as you just ended up feeling sorry for it as it got sucked out to space through a tiny hole.

# I just thought the whole thing just ended up being far too comic book, and the whole premise cheesy...
it should have just ended at A3 with Ripley's death. If they wanted to do another, just explored new characters elsewhere that somehow encounter aliens. Start from scratch as it were.

# Well I think A3 was a bad film and would have been better
had it never been made what would have been better is if Resurrection had been the finale where Ripley and the hybrid Mammalien crashed in the spaceship ending the saga.
