Brilliant J-WO! Please don't get me started on how awful that movie was. I could watch that, and driving bamboo splinters up my nostrils would seem great in comparison.
But... Space Jockey!
If it's a prequel, you'd only have to watch Alien.Oh man, I can hardly wait for this one. Now's a great time to rewatch Alien & Aliens again, I've already seen Alien 3 just the other day.

Probably a lot to do with director Jean Pierre Jeunet. He has a fairly distinct style and loves to work with shadows and textures. I rate him fairly highly but I think this film was one of his poorer offerings. Check out Delicatessen and City Of Lost Children for some of his better work.Alien Ressurection was just too weird to see again. Great special effects, and Ron Perlman was in it but, man, it's so bizarre.

I find its best not to see it as a sequel but as Jeunet and Wheedon doing quality fan fiction. Lot more fun that way.
Yeah it does appear like it might show more of the Jockey alien than the classic aliens for most of the movie, but it should still be awesome! We can't expect it to match Alien & Aliens but I'm hoping it will be up to the good standard of the third. The background certainly looks like it will make sense with the first in the series.OK... so... this isn't so much a story about the aliens, but how the alien 'blueprint' became gene-compatable with humans. That's my guess from the trailer, anyway.
