Terminator and Blade Runner were almost in the same universe because of Aliens


In the final script of Aliens, the androids are made by a company called "Hyperdyne systems". Remind you of something? Well yeah, on page 29 of the first draft, they are made by Cyberdyne systems, the company which built Skynet.Therefore, if this hadn't been changed (probably for copyright reasons, seeing as Terminator was distributed by Orion pictures and Aliens by 20th century fox) we would have the following chain:Terminator > Same universe as AliensAliens > Same universe as AlienAlien > Same universe as PrometheusPrometheus > Same universe as Blade RunnerTherefore, if it weren't for a dumb copyright-related change, Terminator and Blade Runner would technically be in the same universeI know it's kind of dumb, but I found it fun nonetheless. via /r/movies https://ift.tt/2PlOhdm
