As a long time Alien/Aliens fan I still love it, but remember too, Ridley is not daft, he wants us to talk and think about this film.
He could have quite easily made it a direct seamless prequel to Alien ... and as far as I know that was his original intention ... sometimes I wish it was, but part's of me likes this tangent too.
Remember too that Bladedrunner was absolutely slated upon its release, by critics and fans of the genre too.
I think we will eventually get a Directors cut or different edit in a Blu ray release? remember too that Alien 3 was an odd movie to start with, but after its Dir cut ... it made a lot more sense.

Maybe. We know it wasn't meant to be a direct prequel but there were too many questions that don't really lead anywhere and some aspects that didn't make sense. I hope that any follow up matches our expectations for this film.
To anyone who has yet to see it, go and see it but as a standalone film nothing to do with Alien. It might be more rewarding that way.
