As time passes us though, the great vastness of space. Our minds become clouded and events passed, fade away.

OK. Over 3 decades ago, there was a raven haired actress, who's name, no one could pronounce, who found herself in a position, where she could make, all the demands she wanted. Back in the mid 80s, she made a film, which had a happy ending and she was, with out doubt, the hero. (Understand that this was a time, when gender quotas didn't exist and ability and merit really mattered) When she had finished the film in the mid 80s, she said. No more, Alien films for me, I am a big star now and I no longer have to run around in little knickers and vest tops, to become famous. She could name her price and dismiss anything she didn't like and so she was adamant that she would never, ever make another Alien film. They had paid her about $35k for the first film and over a million, for the second. A million dollars for a girl, to make a film, was almost unheard of in those days. So in the end, they offered her, with royelties more than 10 times that amount, to do the third one. So, she took the money, not realising that not only would she be running around, in skimpy knickers and vest top again, but she would also have her head shaved.

There was a lot of hype over the coming 3 film. It ran over budget and took far longer, to make, than expected. Due to 'issues' and because of the rush, to get it into the cinemas, it was destroyed, in the editing room.

The 'Who do I have to ..... to get out of here?' In the fourth film, was her little dig, at the producers etc..

When people asked, why she had done a fourth film, after stating that should would not do a third film. She said that they basically drove a truck, full of money up to my house. So why not?

l liked Michael Caine's reasoning for doing Jaws 4 the revenge

"Somebody said, 'Have you ever seen Jaws 4?' I said, 'No. But I've seen the house it bought for my mum. It's fantastic!"
