Yeah, I'm there first in line man! Dragging some friends who've never seen it before (What in the hell!?!!), so they can witness a classic on the big screen! Awesome pic of Ripley too...one of my fav's! ;)

ohhhh yah!! i cannot wait! i've only seen alien resurrection on the big screen. it would be nice to see the original on the big screen too! :D

if this will ever played on Slovenia (likely not)... :geek: :upset:

It's being released in the UK as 15. (Odd seeing as all ther versions of Alien are 18)

I saw Alien on the big screen in my Cinema Studies class.

But hell, definitely seeing it again.

BTW The only one I didn't see in theatres is, :eek: Aliens. I was too young to start my theatre-going experience by myself when it came out. Too old for dad to take me out to see it.

I would Prefer Aliens..

Alien: The Director's Cut: Bad news - Fox has apparently cut the number of prints for the re-issue in the US from 1200 prints to only 350, not a good sign.

I've been a long time fan of the legacy, but I was born in 1983, so I never had the chance to see this in theatres. I'm definatley going to go see this one.

i cant wait!

i just hope the rumors are true that if this does well they will release aliens. i would be as gitty as a school girl

hmm list time i saw its going to be playing on October 31 2003 not the 29th

Alien: Director's Cut: Seems Friday's article caused all sorts of misinterpretations from a variety of Pommie readers. The thrust of the article was that Fox seemed to be overcharging on prints and as a result a lot of UK theatres looked like they weren't going to carry the film over the weekend - thus turning what was to be a wide release into a small limited one (just like the US). The good news is quite a few did screen the movie and those who did catch it sounded very happy, but don't think its going to be easy to find or around for long if further reports are any indication. 'Dan' has more on how the original plans were changed - "Initially slated as a 'wide' release, Fox cut the print run down and so it became "selected". There are approx 100 prints in the country, of which Odeon have 26, which are booked in to the bigger multiplexes. Expect them to filter around a lot of smaller cinemas over the coming weeks". 'Neth' has some concerns too: "I've noticed that most cinemas that ARE showing the film are only screening it once or twice in the evening, with most completely yanking it from screens mid-week to pave the way for Revolutions on Wednesday which is a shame, really. I can understand why the cinema chains are reluctant to pay full price for a film that's been widely available to homes for twenty years, though - a good percentage of the population are no doubt oblivious to the fact that it's a spruced-up print with some new material". So fans out there should catch it while they can as it won't be around for long it seems. Thanks also to 'Gav', 'John', 'Patrick', 'Trinity the Purple' & 'JS'
