This wooden monk planet script sounds so stupid for an alien film. The prison planet originally being a "giant wooden catholic death star called arceon" raises so many questions.
How would this wooden thing be space worthy? Why do catholic monks live on it? Are wooden catholic death stars vatican apporved? Why do the monks feel the need to practice catholism away from Gods green earth? Why did they think this was a good direction to take after ALIENS?
Let's face it, Alien 3 was fucked from the very begining!
It's literally the same movie but with a different set.

no because the major issues with the film would still be there >random alien egg is on ship >newt an hicks killed off unceremoniously Alien 3 sucks for these reasons.
Watched it for the first time recently it felt out of place compared to the first two. My biggest complaints were the shitty alien dog cgi, bland characters and plot and complete lack of tension. It was a neat idea (both wooden monk planet and prison planet) just poorly executed.

It would have been a much more interesting take to follow the monk wooden planet idea. It was unique and truly showed something different. A young 27 year old David Fincher making his first film and being doubted by a colossal studio like 20th Century Fox didn't help the production either.
It still has Newt and Hicks dying, Ripley crashes on an all male planet full of exiles, they have no guns, religious overtones, a single Alien is the threat, sad ending, etc.

I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you’re referring to as Directors Cut, is in fact, Assembly Cut, or as I’ve recently taken to calling it, The Fincher Edit. Assembly Cut is not an quick fix unto itself, but rather another component of a fully realized true Alien3

It's a much better alien and philosophically exploratory film than the original two action schlocks.

>>newt an hicks killed off unceremoniously This is a horror movie not an 80s action movie.

>wooden catholic death star That would've made the movie pure sci-fi, it would've been great!

Catholic sci-fi is the best (I dare say only good) Sci-Fi out there.
Brody Kelly
yeah it would have been an awesome gothic classic for all eternity. oh well.

ORIGINAL script was William Gibson's script. Hicks, Newt and Bishop all survive and have character arcs.
It's basically about the ship being picked up by a corporate rival to W-Y group, and they attempt to recreate the Alien from its DNA. They are successful, and they regret being successful. It's pretty good.
