July 18th of this year marked 30 years since the release of James Cameron’s Aliens title - often regarded as the greatest sequel of all time. Since the Alien franchise was born, we’ve been invaded with four films and one prequel. In 2017, we’ll also see the release of the second installment from the prequel series named Alien: Covenant crafted by original Alien director Ridley Scott. To mark the occasion Alien and Aliens fans are in for a treat. Expect big news, announcements and secrets to be exposed this weekend at Comic-Con, San Diego. Comic-Con will host a live Q&A with the filmmakers and the cast of Aliens – including mastermind James Cameron himself. Cameron stated...
It will be fun. Get the usual suspects back together. You know, it’s interesting. I don’t normally pursue these kind of nostalgia moments like we’re going to do down at Comic-Con, and I didn’t do it much at all for Terminator on its 30th, but there’s something about Aliens. It was a milestone for myself and Gale because the film got seven Academy Award nominations.
