ALIEN : RESURRECTION (1997) Theatrical Redux

The basis of this fanedit is the theatrical cut including the following scenes from the special edition back into the movie :

  • Ripley awakes during the surgery
  • Doctor shows Ripley the picture of a girl and she hesitates because she seems to remember Newt
  • Ripley seems to remember Fury 161

Why didn’t I included alternate opening and ending ?
The theatrical opening and ending works better with the rest of the saga.

Why didn’t I included other exclusive scenes from the special edition ?
Because most of don’t add anything to the main plot. I hesitated to include 2 more scenes in my theatrical redux :

  • Ripley telling Call how she had failed to save a little girl (Newt)
  • Call talking about dreaming and Ripley telling her she can only dream about aliens

but I found them too repetitive with the added Ripley scenes in the beginning.

ALIEN : RESURRECTION (1997) Theatrical Redux is now available in 1080p remux with FLAC 24/48 5.1 audio files in English and French, AC-3 16/48 5.1 audio transcodes and full subtitles in English and French.
