![]() ![]() Then there is also the River of Pain novel where yet again we see a marine with a little girl escape LV-426. It was innovative in Alien, but then we had it happen in Prometheus where the juggernaut became a derelict, and now we seem to be having it happen in the Life and Death series. It's like saying that we are going to discover derelict juggernauts on all these planets now. The development of Hicks and Newt was good because it was based on the original Aliens film, but the story of Wilks and Billie is flawed because it asks the reader to accept that the exact same story as Aliens happened elsewhere and the only survivors were a little girl and a marine. The stories cease to make sense when they are faced with a Ripley-Bot. The fact that it is so glaringly transparent that they are those other characters and we have to play pretend the whole time is insulting to the reader's intelligence. If you're saying they're badly developed rubbish, then you're basically saying the development of Hicks and Newt in the EU stories was rubbish, because nothing else was altered about them beyond the names printed on the paper. ![]() ![]() It's the exact same characters with different names. It's poor second-hand fiction.īut it just isn't though. Posted Apr 11, 2016, 03:12:11 PM Quote from: Perfect-Organism on Apr 11, 2016, 02:44:27 PMWilks and Billie simply have no style. ![]()
