Oh good. I won't be seeing the movie anyway, but I will sleep better at night knowing that they have not gone completely out of their minds regarding this franchise.
Sox:
Things that Zack Effron has been in haven't been any worse for his presence. He's been in mostly crap, but it wasn't crap because of him.
MadassAlex:
He does, however, act as a powerful representation of modern pop culture.
Alien is pretty far distanced from that kind of thing.

I wasn't saying he's a horrible actor or anything. I wouldn't know, because I've never watched a movie he's been in. I'm not all that concerned with whether or not the new movie will be a good one; however, I am very concerned about the hordes of teenage fangirls that would suddenly become very interested in all things Alien. I stay the fuck away from things that teenage girls like, and I expect them to stay the fuck away from the things that I like. It usually works out fine, until someone decides they might make more money if they re-make something that doesn't need re-making, and they aim it towards teenagers.
For me, when I walk into some public place and I can hear them squeeing over something I once took seriously, it makes it a lot harder for me to continue to take it seriously.
MadassAlex:
When they realise what the essence of Alien is, I think they shall vacate quickly.
Remember, we're essentially talking about a life form that looks suspiciously like a bio-weapon that breeds by face-raping the host and destroying its innards during birth. The sheer sheer Freuditude of the situation is staggering.
