Baikonur:
I'm a little angry at Hollywood.
They screwed us out of Alien 5, and next summer we can expect to be dummified once more by producers raping creativity in treating movies like marketing campaigns, "Just do what worked last time -- an action scene every ten minutes!" -- with the NOW FILMING Aliens Vs. Predator.
AFTER THIS WAS ANNOUNCED, however, the following interview emerged (the original was so shittily edited that I re-tweaked the grammar myself):

But yet, NOTHING CAME.
So I took it upon myself to come up with two viable options. Two? Yeah, that way the audience, the people who want a sequel, have a choice -- before production -- as to which one is made. Democracy, right.
The first contains a very sloppy notes section, and I slapped a lot of gooey names (people who had previously been involved in the Alien series) to the front -- this one was made largely as a hoax.

The second was given "slightly" more care . . . as it attempted to emulate James Howard Cameron. (Howard? Get it? J.C. = Jesus Christ . . .)

And if any of you have not yet checked out my profile's "My Photo" . . . I recommend you do so.
Refalm:
Hollywood movies are getting crappier. It's mostly [name-of-blockbuster-movie] part 2 or 3, which aren't any good.
Well, except for movies that where already made, but released now, like Terminator 3 and Lord Of The Rings 3...
