I gotta admit I'm a little baffled by this...I have noticed that the Alien films have all but vanished in the stores....
I have a hard time believing that they can truely improve upon the 20th anniversary DVD of Alien...outside of a unnecessary fancy digipak packaging. (already having a very cool menu screen, great commentary by Ridley Scott, 2 isolated music scores, trailers, deleted scenes, storyboards, production photos, artwork & merchandising images)
Aliens had the extended cut among other great extras...no commentary by Cameron (no surprise there)
In-depth documentaries for these two films? sounds ok...but wasn't that the disc that you got if you bought the Alien box set?
The latter two films I could take or leave...they're not dreadful but neither are in the same league as Alien or Aliens. Alien 3 had all sorts of problems...something like 5 different screenplays were written...The film's finished look was interesting but the finished story just plain stunk
I'd prefer if Fox Video dug up other unreleased films in their vaults and dusted them off, spend a little money and give them a polished DVD release instead of just dumping them out onto the shelves.
