okay one thing I think AVP does have over A:R is the music. Would you be making any/ many alterations to the soundtrack?

I've just been listening to the AVP soundtrack and forgotten how good it actually sounds.


Yeah, the AVP soundtrack (same goes for AVP-R) is very good, an excellent blend of the themes from both franchises.

I'll be honest and say that I don't like the soundtrack to Resurrection. It's weak and feels like a bad rip off of the other film's scores. It's funny you should ask this question as it's something I've been thinking about recently. Could I completely replace the score? Perhaps. But with what - my first choice would be to cherry pick tracks from the Alien trilogy and other sci-fi films but that could take ages.

Given that I consider Resurrection to be a non-canon piece of arse I'm keen on doing something quite radically different and going for a more electronic sounding score. Think how Legend worked with both the original Jerry Goldsmith score and the Tangerine Dream score. In fact I'm quite up on using bits of Tangerine Dream.

I'll work on adding a different score to a few clips as a test sometime soon.
