Old Shame is In-Universe Only


* OldShame: This remains a sore spot for Creator/JossWhedon. He supposedly wrote the script as a SelfParody. Needless the say, the irony blew up in his face.

** Creator/SigourneyWeaver was reluctant to do a fourth movie, after the rather final ending of the third. However, when she read the script, the scene where Ripley sees the seven failed attempts at cloning her was enough to make her sign on. But she also gave other reasons:
---> "They basically drove a dumptruck full of [[MoneyDearBoy money to my house]]."
* {{Corpsing}}: Vriess's line was originally "Who were you expecting? The Easter Bunny?" but it kept setting everyone off in hysterical laughter (due to the actor saying "''Eastern'' Bunny").

** Creator/JossWhedon was dissatisfied with the film, among other things because he was roped to play straight a ''parody'' script he had written.
** Director Jeunet was uncomfortable with the film from the beginning, as he actually believed that producing another ''Alien'' movie was a bad idea. He also considered himself unfit for the project, as he was specialized in weird, fantasy films as opposed to grim science-fiction like ''Alien'' (and he didn't even speak English, so he constantly needed a translator). The resultant experience, worsened by the heavy ExecutiveMeddling and late budget cuts, made him swear off Hollywood for decades. However, he has stated he is actually proud of the film itself even if it wasn't perfect nor pleasing to do.

!! For the video game:
* MidDevelopmentGenreShift: After a tumultuous development where, like ''VideoGame/GoldenEye1997'', the tie-in game missed the film's release by several years, the third-person-shooter was nearing completion when the developers at Argonaut Games were struggling with two big issues. Their rendering technique was taxing the system to where they were struggling with various technical issues, and as a result, had to limit the enemy AI to basically bumrush the player in low numbers, which made the game not scary. However, they had implemented a first-person view and control scheme when crawling through vents and realized they could apply it to the entire game, which benefitted the build in three ways: they didn't have to throw out their existing work (which had already happened), it would amp up the game's difficulty and scare factor with a first-person perspective limiting what players could see, and the game's technical performance improved with less to display. As a bonus, the game helped revolutionize the now-standard dual-analog control scheme for console FPS games.
