Just make art that sells well enough to make a profit, don't sell-out for a pat on the head from studios. Movies are both art and business, but the balance is too business right now.

I think Scott's already sold out. He has stated in the past he was done with the Alien franchise. He makes Prometheus (which was reall really bad, btw...), which focuses on the Engineers and that was his road map for the sequel.

Then Neill Blomkamp started getting traction on his Alien continuation, then all of a sudden Scott is reviving the Alien franchise again with a tie into the original franchise.

I really think this new alien movie is going to be a pile of poo. He needs to give the reins over to someone whose got some creative juices left running through their veins.

Yeah I agree, make something that's inspired and genuine. I have high hopes for it.
