"You know we manufacture those."

Surprised you didn't caption it.

Whats worse? No one but us could instantly identify this without even THINKING.

This is SO FUCKING JAMES CAMERON. Even the little "blades" sticking up have the same blunt machine-grace aesthetic as HKs.

I should have captioned it but to me this thing is bittersweet. It's simply inconceivably horrendous that this storyline wasn't pursued. Jesus Christ, I can't take it when Carrie Henn (Newt), now in her early 30's, talks nonchalantly about Jim "detailing" his "ideas for the sequel." If anything, before he dies, he ought to bequeath those notes to (you and me) we diehard fans . . .

Kiel, what do you mean "this storyline wasn't pursued?"

Forgive me if I don't recall exactly what I intended 14 months ago.

"This storyline" potentially refers to the Aliens sequel ("Alien 3") James Cameron spoke about on the set, back in 1985. His construction of the surrogate family (Hicks, Ripley, Newt) was a deliberate stepping stone into an imagined subsequent film. I lamented the fact that he had not anywhere publicized the details of said vision.

And we got the studio's Alien 3 instead.

The same is true of Terminator 3.
