Alien vs. Predator - Timeline

That would be a very quick rebuilding in a single year.

It would kind of explain why LA in Blade Runner looks like that though, it was a similar situation with New Way City turning into Neonopolis in Predator: Concrete Jungle

 

[Pro Bot]

I suppose that's true.

 

[Pro Bot]

I was thinking of Predator 2 mainly.

‘Predator: Badlands’ – Dan Trachtenberg Previews His “Big, Crazy Swing” [Interview]

With the upcoming animated anthology movie Predator: Killer of Killers, Dan Trachtenberg imagines how Yautja warriors would fare against earthly rivals from different warfare eras. Exciting, right? Well, Predator: Badlands is an even bigger swing. As revealed in its first trailer, Trachtenberg’s...

While this is a standalone Predator entry, Trachtenberg still can't help throwing Easter Eggs in to appease franchise fans. Early in the film, Dek is cycling through holograms, or there's a trophy case that'll be worth a giggle. Humans being so low on the competition ranking alone has its comedic appeal. Oh, and no, that's not a Starship Troopers nod, even though it looks like one (we tried).

Honestly (and I'm probably completely wrong), it kinda makes me think we could see other alien creatures owned by Fox/Disney as either holograms or skulls.

Random thought, but Avatar would be a good fit. It matches pretty well with Alien already.
I also don't like that film so seeing a dead Na'vi would be pleasant, hehe...

Same. Overrated slop that SOMEHOW is the highest-grossing film of all time? Gimme a break.

Blade Runner stuff (probably best in the head-canon timeline only - besides, it's already got a standalone one)

Also, yeah, it's probably best to put the Blade Runner series in it's own standalone timeline.

 

[Pro Bot]

It's acknowledged. I say that's good enough for the time being.

'Alien: Romulus' Production Designer Naaman Marshall Interview

Alien: Romulus production designer, Naaman Marshall, spoke with Immersive Media about building a bridge between Alien and Aliens.

Not to use a bad pun or anything, but did your experience on Underwater make you feel like you dipped your toes in the waters to make an Alien film?

It definitely prepared me for the set builds and the design aesthetic. I already had a leg up because I'd kind of done an alien [story] underwater. I'm not afraid of big sets or afraid to push the envelope. It gave me the confidence to just go, "You know what? Let's just design and let somebody tell us it's not possible." So that's how I proceeded with Alien.

I had the support of Disney and obviously had the support of Fede and the producers. We just pushed as hard as we could until we hit that breaking point where it wasn't doable. We'd rethink or renegotiate or come up with a different plan. But the idea was always to push as hard as we could, and that's exactly what I did on Underwater. I was already in that mode.

It's not a lot, but neat that the Underwater production designer worked on a proper Alien film after.
