>I wonder why the Alien franchise has lasted so long tho
because people loved Aliens. They wanted more games, toys, comics, and movies of that. For some reason though, they refuse to make more. They ran it in to a brick wall killing the characters fans liked, then abandoned the time period fans liked. First setting it in the far future, then idiotically setting it in the past to make bunches of nonsensical prequels that destroy the allure of Alien. Neill Blomkamp of all people is the only one who was listening that fans wanted it back in the Aliens time period and aesthetic.
