A film that should never happen.
Granted, it could be quite cool.
But it won't be. Because it's being directed by Paul 'not the good one' Anderson, the man behind the Resident Evil and Mortal Kombat 'movies'.

Not only will it suck and blow in immeasurable quantities, but it's going to star Bishop... but not as Bishop. Lance Henriksen will be in it, but as a 'billionaire industrialist' on a trip to the Arctic who discovers 'two alien races engaged in the ultimate battle'.

Nice one assmunch - you take two super-cool movie aliens and mash them into a dumbed down Thing ripoff, then you hire an actor who's already played a part in an Alien movie, but you have him play someone else instead. Why not hire Sigourney Weaver, to play the woman he loves? And Ian Holm as the comedy sidekick. Gah.
I have totally lost faith in comic book-style movies after the car crash that was Underworld. Don't bother getting excited, it's going to be crapola.

And Arnies first line is "Baaaack in da f*****g house!"
And walks (Yes, walks) out of the water at the end to destroy the very little inhabitats left in the Solar System.
I think we have an Oscar here.

But his expertise is what makes him so good. The Terminator had already been designed, but he was still called in for T3 (and T2? I can't remember...)

Long life + lots of cash sounds good.

I suppose that the design is set, so there is no need to change it.
