Well, you're right - hope we'll be ready for mega archival project when the new Alien movie hits the theatres. But considering Alien 1-4, that's pretty much it. I'm not aware of any other significant unreleased footage available.

Aliens EPK has arrived! As suspected some of the content was available on Alien saga DVD (trailer & featurettes), but other footage (soundbites & b-roll) I have never seen before and will be included on AA#5. The content list in the first post has been updated. Sadly I haven't heard from any other fans to contribute with new footage.

I guess there will be room for DVD Rom section so if anyone wants to make one for inclusion on the DVDs, please do so and let me know. Maybe I can create a slide show with lobby cards + press stills for each movie. Since I don't have those, someone will need to scan and email them to me.

Alien saga should be released on Blu-ray probably early next year, so there is no need for LD preservation. Also, I believe all bonus content from LDs was transferred to Alien Quadrilogy DVD set.

Looking forward to this as all of these have been great.  Cheers.

Hello Alien enthusiasts! As promissed AA#5 DVD is finished on time and AA#6 will follow shortly. Now it's up to Ash595 to make DVD covers & disc art to match previous releases (if photos are needed, let me know), so they can be uploaded along with DVDs. Below is the final content info, without Easter eggs (AA#5 has 2 and AA#6 has 1). Hope you'll enjoy the DVDs (both are in PAL format)... tb1971 signing off

Ressurecting the project was no problem at all, even Ridley Scott has done it recently. I was hoping to get hold of Alien Resurrection EPK, but no one seems to have it (which is weird considering it's quite new movie). If someone does have anything else to contribute with, would they please contact me ASAP. Thanks!

Ooooh, exciting!

Well done tb1971 for resurrecting the project :)

Hello,

Would it be possible for some kind soul to upload this to a newsgroup?  Also, can someone upload Alien Appendix #3 to a group as well?  Unless there is some way to obtain these without using Rapidshare or Torrents?  I somehow missed #3.  It would be much appreciated!  Thanks!

Been there don't expect very much of it, it has some nice props but i spend under an hour in the exhibition....

Guys, thanks for the responses!

1.  8T88- If I understand you correctly, you intend to upload AA5?  Is that correct...if so, Thank You for taking the time to do that!

2.  Not to be a pest but I would also like to pick-up AA3, if possible.  Do you guys know how I can obtain it?

Thx again!

I'm willing to upload, the only problem is that i don't have AA05. And i refuse to use rapidshit..... So i'm waiting on a torrent or a usenet release.

I plan to get it on Usenet real soon now.

 

I hit a couple of dumb snags. Shouldn't be long.

THANX, will enjoy this 4 sure!

Hello,

Jaiman, thanks for posting this, I really appreciate it!  Also, you wouldn't happen to have AA3 would you?  If so, would you be willing to post it?  AA3 is the only one I missed.  Thx!

On behalf of those of us who don't do the whole P2P thing, thanks a bunch for uploading it to usenet.  I'm downloading it now and can't wait to take a gander.

Will do Jaiman and Thx again!  Btw, I you don't have to worry about me laughing, as my forgettery is getting much better than my memory these days.
