I mean, if there's one thing Metroid should be like, it's Alien. Besides, Alien hasn't had a really good movie in almost 40 years, the market's not exactly saturated by it.

Still, there's a lot about Metroid that makes it unique. Compared to Alien, it'd be less focused on horror and more on the mystery (so more scenes like the one where the Nostromo crew enters the alien spaceship, and less scenes like the ones involving the alien itself), and it'd have less dialogue. There should definitely be a horror element attached to the Metroids themselves, but they shouldn't really be a major presence before the ending of the movie. There's a lot that can be done with the mythos of the series, the Chozo and all, and especially with the Space Pirates who could be far more fleshed out than they were in the games.

Fair enough, can't argue there.

Yeah. Were all the minor Space Pirates the same race as the ones introduced in Super Metroid? Was Ridley one of said Space Pirates or was he always the nightmarish Xenomorph pterodactyl thing who's made Samus Aran's life difficult?
