Looks great. I hear that theres only one Predator in this. And WHAT a title! Requiem. Awesome! Dammit... I was thinking of calling my third (and last!) TWoTW sequel TWoTW: Requiem. (Although work has only just started on the second). Poop.  Never mind, eh? Apparently, they have pulled out the stops for this one. Now we need a true 'Alien' instalment (with Sigourney) based on Earth and we're set! |

Ah... the jockeys!
Interesting idea!
Depends on how you view the jockeys in the Mythos.
Some say the Xenomorphs were a weapon developed by the jockeys that got out of their control, others think they were trying to transport the Xenos away from somewhere.
I'd like to see the jockeys turn up at the end to save the Earth in a massive conflict.
Maybe thats just me.
Either way, it's about time they were featured in one of the movies again...

I'd have the jockeys as a one off race. My idea had a battle between the humans/ aliens and the jockeys were indifferent to both spieces. i had the jockeys threatening to blow up a huge B5 type space station to curb the infestation and the human Suloco style battleships in a standoff with the Jockeys.

I'd be more inclined to have the jockeys as a sort of interplanetary bacteria (in a TWoTW sense, if you get me).
I'd have the jockeys come in and save the day after the Aliens threaten life on Earth and it seems that life on Earth is completely fooked due to an infestation of Xenomorphs.
It's not original, I admit, but it's a nice update to H.G's story, I think.
I have always seen the jockeys as benevolent (in their way). I haven't read as many spin-off books as some (although I've read a few)... but it makes more sense to me.

Oooo that DOES look good! Bring it on! And yes I'd like to see the Jockeys in an Alien 5 movie. Both ideas sound interesting to me.

Further to my idea i'd have a tug ship find another Jock ship floating in space and they tow it back to a space station. On board they find the eggs in the hold and another dead pilot, as the techs examine the ship one of them sits in the 'chair' and instantly he begins' to merge horrifically with the ship (like the jockey alien) The ship communicates to him via telepathy. He realises the eggs they found are a threat... too late All the techs in the hold about a dozen are all infested.
And the horror begins.

I've often thought of doing an Alien themed fan-fic for a laff.
I may look at that.
