The Matrix has very much become a cult film......
You're right, Morn. I enjoyed that. But will it still be one after 10 or more years. We will have to wait and see. But I guess you're right.

I think it's all gossip. I know Peter Jackson is smarter then this.
BTW, if its true and he is planning a remake then not to worry, it's just only a idea, a plan. And we all know what that means in Motion Picture land. I would rather like Williams to do something really...totally different.
Perhaps "Music for chamber orchestra "or "Pieces for a string quartet".
(Remember or listen to Jane Eyre: Festivity at Thornfield)

Now you are talking. One of the most intimate scores Williams ever composed and this during his golden years!!!
THE ACCIDENTAL TOURIST also has that quality. I have always
hoped that John would write more music like this but unfortunately....
Williams score for KONG remake

Also- I don' think Aliem should be on the list of cult classics. It was, but had died out over the past decade.
I still hear tons about 2001 and Star Wars, many people name them among the best movies of all times, but I havn't heard about alien in years.
Also, how could an alien compare with villains like The Emperor, Darth Vader, or HAL-9000?
End quote.
Look at movies made before Alien(1978). This was the first SF-film that had a real to life, dark feel and a cinematographic vision and style that was innovative in those days and therefore acted as a model for many other movies to come. Also its theme, although not new, has been copied alot since then.
A cult movie is a movie that has a strong following and caring by cinema audiences ans critics. I don't think Alien has lost its cult status just because it doesn't seem to appeal a large public the way Star Wars does. And if it has lost some then it is still a classic.
You can't judge a movie by its villain alone.
