C'mon Exorcist remake, now I'm fucking sick. Thanks Mr.D, way to ruin my night

This is the absolute worst remake news I have ever heard. I cannot even begin to describe how absolutely fucking pissed this makes me. I hope all involved are punched right in the face repeatedly for this. Why not just remake 2001: A Space Odyssey and Blade Runner while they're at it? Goddamned morally bankrupt pieces of shit. THIS FILM WILL FAIL MISERABLY!

This is the horror fan equiv of hearing one of your relatives is in the hospital. You'll keep checking back, hoping that the news was just a rumor, that your relative just slipped, but as time tells all you'll see it, your relative has terminal cancer; the worst is here, they're remaking Alien.

It's the end, ladies and gentlemen, of the world.

I'm still banging my head on the wall, not sure if it'll knock me out quick enouh...

Fox's 'Alien' remake: CG Alien, Ripley is a man (on steroids), digitally painted backgrounds/spaceship, cat now a dog and guaranteed nausea

Still screaming over the Alien remake news. Off to bang my head against the wall some more. Be right back (maybe, might go lay down in fetal position)....

I know it sounds impossible, but who's up for a massive petition/boycott of Fox. I'm being totally serious here. If all of the people on this site, start flooding Fox with emails, it might be a start.

you know what? Fak it! this assholes just won't stop remaking classics, I'd hate to see what are they gonna do when they finally run out of stock... remake the remakes (in some cases AGAIN)??? man what a lousy lazy horror era is this one...of course i'm not talking about our fellow filmmakers that are trying to bring something new to the table, but of these fat cats on the studios that won't open thei wallets to new ideas... sucks so much being a horror fan sometimes....

I was hoping that Ridley was going to do the prequel, but this is fucking retarded. God, I want to punch someone right the fuck now for this. I am done with Fox. They will not get one more dollar from me for anything ever again.

I wanted to boycott Fox after Wolverine

Finally, some remake news that even angers this site! This remake bullshit has gone way out of hand, and it's because muppets keep going to watch them that they make more. And you know what the real problem is? I figured this out the last two times I went to the cinema to watch a horror. The audience is now full of groups of teenager girls (once a rarety for this kind of film) who all flock to see the latest movie from the heartthrob of Supernatural, One Tree Hill and other hit teen shows. Studios need to start targeting their horror movies at horror fans and not teenyboppers, because the DVD market is where the real money is and a film's lasting appeal is far more important than a couple of weeks at the box office. And I am so sick of hearing the 'it's because of the economy' or 'well it is thirty years old' speeches. These remakes are being made because a couple were really successful and so uninspired and money-hungry producers want to capitalise on that. It is times like this that remind me that the movie industry is a business and art is pretty irrelevant. Fuck you Fox!

after? Mr. D you disappoint me now more then your support of Repo the Genetic Opera. Anyway as for the remake news... NO! just no unless you keep to conventions of huge motherfucking sets having a barely know strong looking actress and having a practical(aka robot or even skinny dude in rubber suit) Alien I won't see it. I'm giving predator a chance until casting news and news about the pedator's suit reaches the net but this I label a no! kind of like drag me to hell it gets an automatic NO!

"I wanted to boycott Fox after Wolverine" Well, here's your chance. Post a separate item urging all of the people who visit this site to boycott Fox. If you do it, and maybe Harry over at AICN does it, then we might get somewhere. Come on Mr. Disgusting, stand up for the genre you love.

*Screams bloody murder* It never even occured to me that they would do something like this! Not ALIEN!! I'm rooting for Jonesy, though. Poor fleabag went through a lot in that movie.

In space no one can hear you scream: "nooooooooooooooooooo! Another beloved classic getting the Hollywood hack redo!"

This is horrible news for horror & sci-fi fans. I'm with you Mr.D. Fox won't get a dime from me over this remake.

you cant mess with perfection and alien is a perfect film. KM

wow, they screwed the franchise enough with that avp crap, now theyre gonna do this ?.. why not just let ridley do a sequel, ah wait, that would make sense :)

I'm going to bed. Maybe I'll wake up tomorrow and this will all be a mistake like that Hannibal Lecter sequel a few weeks back.

I think we should all get together and remake Hollywood, like in Idaho or something.... We can call it THE HOLLYWOOD, or maybe HOLLYWOODS

I RARELY post, heck i even lost my password and had to reclaim it but i just HAD to say something about this bit of news: HELL NO!!!!NO FUCKING WAY, NOT ALIEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!! FOX is shit, they need to declare bankruptcy just like GM in order to stop remaking some of the best movies EVER made. Let's all do an online petition, we need as many votes as we can get and i bet everyone will be willing to vote against this SHITTY decision

Seriously...what is the f**king point to it all. This is an all time low for the movie industry if this is true. Why not remake Terminator salvation?? its been out for like a week...and it sucked balls.

Wow, this is just Fantastic news! You know, I was starting to lose hope in Hollywood, thinking they'd just completely run out of ideas. Then, they do something like this, and completely redeem themselves. Remake a classic that definitely needs the treatment. Its not like it shouldn't ever be touched or anything. Its good to know there are still some original thinking people out there. Me? Sarcastic?.... nooo....

You know, Mr. Disgusting, you and I AM THE EGG MAN have a point. Now is the time to put an end to remakes and those of us who cover them are the ones who have some of the power to stop them. If we don't cover them then they will get less attention and make less money, and then hopefully these studios can be stopped before they've remade everything. Remember, this is just money to them, the executives at Fox and all these other studios don't care about artistic freedom, they don't care about loyal fans and they don't care about the legacy these classic have left behind, all they care about is the almighty dollar! This could be the start of the 'I Spit on Your Remakes' rebellion... just say no!!!
