what is wrong with weaver
for starters.... RIPLEY is dead.

Did you see the last Alien film? (Alien Resurrection)
She looked alive to me.
Just a couple ideas: Aliens on Earth, or hunting down the origins of the Aliens
It's "Alien origins or bust" (with or without Ms. Weaver as the Ripley-clone). An Earth-bound story would be so borrrring! We've seen it a hundred times over.
I'm not sure there should be a further "episode", but if they're going to do it, it should explorer the subtext of the aliens' human-like intelligence, which has been more than hinted at, but never yet explored, in every single previous "Alien" movie. These creatures are obviously more than just "killing machines". But what are they really, and what do they want ultimately? Sigourney Weaver herself asked these questions in an interview published shortly after the release of Aliens (1986). Unfortunately, they've still never been answered.
Question is, would Mr. Cameron be the best director for such a story? We've already had two movie "shoot-'em-ups". I don't think we need a third.
