Amidst the Marvel and Star Wars news, this Alien based TV show, might have slipped by. It's being done by Noah Hawley (Fargo and Legion Show runners) so it might be really quite good!

Could be good. Probably won't be, though 
This bit in particular doesn't sound great:
I get why they're setting it on Earth, but it just seems lazy when there are squillion different stories that could be told that don't involve Earth being infested by the Aliens.

Grim... is going to love that
Cor fuck, yes he is.
The new series of The Movies That Made Us on Netflix has an episode for Aliens.
There's not much in the way of new information if you've seen the special features on the DVDs, but it's fun to see some of the stars come back to talk about it.

Oi dohw kno how much yow lot loik minis and 3D printings, but https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/wa ... escription
I especially like "Sad wonder mute child" and the alien gigerian with honking great big tiddies.
Alien rpg fun tonight with the Rummage Inc gang from our beex D&D group. Since it was Halloween, and I was filling the role of Game Mother, I couldn’t really dress up as anyone else could I?!
Hachette are doing a partwork to build a half-scale Aleon
https://alien.hachettepartworks.com/
I suspect it will be expensive at the end.

Oh I'm gonna tag @Grim... on that one.
How long has tagging given a drop down of users? Nice.

"Subscribe now and you’ll receive your first pack with kits 1-4 for a special price of £24.99 with free P&P. After that, you’ll receive subsequent packs with 8 kits monthly for £94.99 + £5 P&P. "
"There are 13 packs in the collection"
At over 1200 quid it is expensive, but then again it is a pretty big model. I bet it looks cool.
I'll buy it from someone else that built it, otherwise they'd stay in the packs forever.
Just get two lots
Not because I don't want to open then: because I CBA to build it!

How much of a premium would you be willing to pay for that?
I'll do it if you want to buy me a copy too. So one for you, one for Craster, one for me, and then delivery costs to you and Craster. About 5 grand should do it.
Oh I forgot the service charge and tip. 10 grand.

Roughly -75%, if past experience is anything to go by
Twelve pound coins taped to a piece of card?
I’ve just been emailed by Everyman cinemas and they’re screening the director’s cut of Alien next week in selected venues.
If you’ve never seen it in the cinema, I strongly recommend a viewing, as it’s an amazing experience

Ooh, that's neat.
The Director's Cut of Alien is actually shorter than the original (not by a lot, but still) and Ridley Scott considers it "not as good"
Still worth a watch, though.

I’ll have a proper look at their website. It seems odd that they’re not screening the 40th anniversary restoration version that got cinema screened in 2018. That was an epic experience. I saw it at the BFI with quite an eclectic audience. There were clearly quite a few 20 somethings on dates, some of whom had clearly never seen the film.
Oh, and they’re doing Aliens the following week!
I'm seeing Alien and Aliens at the iMax next week.
Enjoy
Absolutely gutted that I can't make it to the IMAX for that. I should have booked the ticket ages ago when you first mentioned it to me, Grim... !
Perhaps they'll do something similar next Alien Day

I'm trying to get my real-life friends to come with me to see aliens on wednesday. Got 2 takers so far

I forgot to mention, whoever booked the seat next to me didn't turn up [rolling eyes dimlie]
@Grim..., how's Dark Descent? Any good?
Loving it, obv. The TTK on the drones is too high IMO, but I'm enjoying it. It's brutally hard!
Waiting to see if it drops in price in the summer sale before I take the plunge...

There is about £8 off it at shopto just now (for either console or PC)

I wonder if they’re hoping that this movie will do for Alien, what “Prey” did for Predator.
I remain unconvinced, I’m not going to get my hopes up

Seen this, @Grim...?
Ooh, no. I shall read it later, ta.
If you are a eBook chappie I have the new Vasquez book if you want it (I have no idea if it's any good).

Oh, and sorry, I didn't realise I hadn't replied to your message there, Grim... -- I've already got it, ta
That has the look and feel spot on.
