Even though I personally prefer Revenge of the Sith to The Force Awakens, it was still pretty good fun, and Disney's Star Wars films have been better received than the prequels on the whole. I can see Disney doing a better job with the Alien series than Ridley Scott has with his middling prequels, who has morphed into the new Lucas - the creator of a franchise coming back to ruin it.

I meant different as in different.

It should've been obvious that I meant Disney doing something different with the Alien franchise, as opposed to just resurrecting Neil Blomkamp's Alien 5.

It was, but it still begs the question when have Disney ever done anything different?

Even the head honcho's quote is about franchises.

I just think it's depressing Disney owning so much.

The Oh Dear God comment was for the multitude of franchise films we'll be getting.

In a few years the box office will be

Avengers 11
X-Men 9

Avatar 6
Alien 12
The Dark Knight Returns Again and Again and Again
