I must admit that this cover was the most tempting one to me of the whole year 2010. I just love it. To paraphrase Steve Jobs, it "looks so good you'll want to lick it"
It really is nicely designed. And when you compare it to the original cover it really looks incredible. I just posted the original cover art over at AlbumArtExchange, and have always been stupified at how all the text is so off kilter, not to mention that there's a lot more real estate on the right side of the image than on the left. Very bizarre, but nothing is centred against anything else on that cover. Check it out:
As much as we usually seem to agree on cover art, I think you're a bit overly unforgiving there, AG I don't see that much imbalance in the original cover.
Almost five years from this amazing release from Lalaland and 18 years after the film's release, I prepared a suite with some of my favourite portions:
If Alien 5 do became a reality who do you think should score it?
Is it still purported to continue the Ripley/Hicks storyline in some fashion? If so, I would obviously love for James Horner to revisit & develop his themes. Probably a pipe dream, but stranger things have happened...
The director of Alien 5 is a big fan of Aliens so it's possible he good hire James Horner. Alien 5 can't come out fast enough for me, can't possibly be worse than those last two craptacular films.

Hope Lalaland manages to obtain the proper tapes and release the 3rd one!

Whether or not it's right to call it ALIEN 5 is up to debate, since the film screws up the existing timeline. But a fifth FILM is coming from Neil Blomkamp, of course. While Blomkamp collaborated with Clinton Shorter in his first films, he switched to Hans Zimmer & co. in CHAPPIE. So it could be Zimmer. That would be interesting, actually, as he's never done a horror-in-space-type film before. INTERSTELLAR was more 'beauty and mystery in space'.

A First Born/Paper House/Interstellar-cross over score. Color me interested.
My first choice would be Christopher Young. Fly II and Species demontrate that he is more than qualified for an Alien.
On the score for Resurrection, for those that only have the album I recomend that you listen to some of the music missing from the album (mostly from the finale of the film) from 13'35 of this suite - specially from 25'11 (with the finale and end credits): http://youtu.be/1J0Y47jW0jc

Actually the whole "Maaaaaaaatt Damon" segment of interstellar did have that angle (very unnecessary plot deviation in the movie for me), the music sounded very reminiscent of Morricone's The Thing.
I would love a score by Zimmer himself instead of the many MV clones who'd end up scoring it anyway. Streitenfeld's Prometheus score has grown on me. As for Alien Resurrection, it's easily the least played entry in the franchise for me, excluding that AvP crap.
I don't have the LLL but have been listening to the iso score on the BD. For some reason, the finale (my most wanted unreleased cue) has dialogue and SFX, was this bit of music lost, or does the LLL have the finale without dia/SFX?

LLL has the finale music free of dialogue or effects, in perfect sound.

Thanks for the reply. I find it odd that only that one bit of music on the BD has SFX, the rest of the score sounds perfect.
