While the proposed Predator reboot is already losing steam with Robert Rodriguez only producing and not directing as originally reported, Fox co-chair Tom Rothman claimed in a recent interview with IESB that Ridley Scott was “toying with the idea” of doing another Aliens movie.

Excited?  Don’t be.  This is still Fox we’re talking about.  You may remember their last alien movie?  The one with Eddie Murphy living inside an Eddie Murphy-shaped spaceship? The one that got outgrossed by Soul Plane? And as for Ridley Scott?  Yeah, he’ll be good to go once he finishes his movie based on MOTHER EFFING MONOPOLY. Ahh, what a crappy time to be alive.
