The IP deserves better than this.
Personally I think the IP has been played out for a while now.
The first couple of movies were decent, and we got some nice spin off material. But the Aliens franchise was never designed to go on forever, and that could be felt in expanded universe media in which the universe and everything in it was reduced to number of repeating recycled elements.
-Weyland Yutani was doing secret experiments with the aliens, possibly using colonists.
-Some person, a 'mad' scientist develops a really unhealthy relationship with the aliens.
-Alternatively the crew of a commercial or independent ship discovers a hive or a lone alien. Or a bunch of colonists find a hive or an alien.
-The universe is a corporate shithole in which everyone back stabs each other for a percentage. And yet some more moral people are still surprised to find about this fact when it hits them in the face.
-Inevitably something goes wrong.
-Or terrorists appear on the scene.
-Or now Seegson is doing some attempt to steal W-Y knowledge through corporate espionage, and sabotage.
-Gun ho space marines appear.
-A spy among the marines, or survivors, or a corporate executive tries to make sure that everything is covered up that could harm the company, or prevent it from making the aliens into a product of which the company owns the patents.
-An android may appear who is perhaps nice or evil.
I think that the IP owners have no real idea how to use the IP properly, having it used for various media that only retreads the same path over again, or that of another product but now featuring aliens.
