Ellen Ripley is done fighting aliens. In a recent interview with Empire Online, franchise star Sigourney Weaver stated that producer Walter Hill has sent her a 50-page story treatment for a fifth Alien movie following director Neil Blomkamp’s departure.

REVIEW: Men in Black: International (2019)
Men in Black: International is an unfunny comedy, a thriller that doesn’t thrill, a mystery with an obvious answer, and a science fiction movie with bad special effects. On top of all this, it manages to sap all the considerable charm out of Chris Hemsworth, a likable and charismatic star who deserves much better than… Continue reading REVIEW: Men in Black: International (2019)
REVIEW: The Orville – Season 2, Episode 12 “Sanctuary”

REVIEW: The Orville – Season 2, Episode 10 “Blood of Patriots”
The Orville wasted no time exploring some of the new threads opened by last week’s incredible episode with “Blood of Patriots,” a mystery that sheds some light on Gordon’s past and puts a potential peace between warring systems in a new light. It’s also funny, exciting, and the most important episode yet for Tala. The… Continue reading REVIEW: The Orville – Season 2, Episode 10 “Blood of Patriots”
REVIEW: The Orville – Season 2, Episode 7 “Deflectors”
After taking a week off (during sweeps!), The Orville returns this week with “Deflectors,” which begins as another relationship episode – which, despite the excellent “A Happy Refrain,” gave me some consternation – but becomes something much more interesting. Talla takes center stage, likely in another effort to endear her to viewers reeling from Alara’s… Continue reading REVIEW: The Orville – Season 2, Episode 7 “Deflectors”
