Was the Alien dying near the end of the first movie?

its a shame ridley and Cameron didn't make the 3rd movie. nothing against the film or fincher, big fan of his, but imagine having both those films then the 2 directors putting theyr visionary minds together for a 3rd????

QES pretty much nailed the statment.

Thats exaclty how it should be done.

That would have been exquisite. Even having them both there as advisers probably would have greatly enhanced the film. I have a feeling that if Ridley had been involved, we very possibly could have seen egg morphing incorporated. Perhaps even as the means for which Ripley is impregnated with a queen. Cameron perhaps could have improved on pacing.

I'm a Fincher fan as well. That being said, it would have been quite interesting to see his first big project augmented by two titans. They perhaps would have served as a force to unlock the potential that he has since demonstrated he possesses.

couldn't agree more. fincher had no control over what was happening and basicaly denounces his involvement in the movie, rejecting interviews etc. if scott/ Cameron were onboard as advisors I think hed have doen a movie he was proud of. the cgi tech wasn't good enough and he wanted to do the wooden monk planet script
