I think you’d also have to cut him slack as it was his first feature…[/quote:716e169b67]
No way lads, I thought Alien 3 was muck and was hugely disappointed with it, even more so than when I saw Predator 2. I’d give him some slack if he’d started out with Lassie Meets Herbie 2 : A Spin in the Suburbs or some other dross but not a second sequel in the Alien franchise. It was brave to let Fincher direct and, and I have read the original script (wooden spaceships anyone?) but the film as a whole doesn’t stand up to either Scott’s original or Cameron’s sequel, for me the jump between the universe of Alien/Aliens and Alien3 is just too much.
