Steven Spielberg said that ALIEN was the first Science Fiction film he ever saw where all of his focus was exclusively on the characters, instead of the Special Effects. All of the sets and effects were practical and utilitarian in service to the story. It's a bit of a slow burn, but truly captures the claustrophobic tension of being trapped in a game of hide and seek with a proficiently deadly alien species while stuck in space. A true modern classic.
@NoriMori19927 ай бұрын
Fun fact: The alien is (mostly) portrayed by Bolaji Badejo, a Nigerian graphic designer that a member of the casting team randomly encountered in a Soho pub. He was 6 foot 10 and very slender, so he was considered perfect for the role. This is the only film he ever appeared in. He was offered a role in the sequel, but instead he moved back to Nigeria and opened his own art gallery. Unfortunately he passed away in 1992 from sickle cell disease.

Believe it or not- back in 1979 Kenner toys (who just made a fortune on Star Wars toys) released an *18 inch tall* toy of the Alien in time for Christmas. The toy was just as frightening as the R-Rated movie itself! Parents were shocked and outraged so toy stores pulled it from the shelves. It has become a hot collector item and a genuine 1979 Kenner Alien still in the original box is worth a small fortune! While I didn't own one myself (I was 9 years old in 1979) a friend of mine did back then- the toy had a mouth that opened with a lever on the back of the head- and had the little "extra jaw" that extended when the mouth opened. Yeah for a kid it was terrifying!

Impressed you realized Ash was a robot! I know it was about to be revealed, but that’s still an extremely bizarre and puzzling moment for most people (including myself). I hadn’t noticed how Parker, who had been focused on money, was the one who said, “What about our lives??” to Ash(‘s head). Considering what he does throughout the movie (suggesting freezing poor John Hurt’s character and sacrificing himself in an attempt to save another coworker), he really is the second most-level headed on the ship and an all around good guy.

If you were a sci-fi fan in the 1970s, it’s something you’d understand immediately, thanks to 2001 and HAL. But nowadays, the idea of putting the crew into stasis and having an AI pilot the ship is pretty much lost. I think the only sci-fi films that portray long-distance space travel realistically in this regard is Passengers (2016) and all the other movies in the Alien franchise. 🤷♂️

When I first saw this movie just a couple years ago, I had already seen Alien: Covenant and Prometheus, in that order. (Don't ask me how that happened, it just did.) So I already knew about androids in the Alienverse. But I had _no idea_ that there were any androids in the first Alien movie. I assumed that was something they introduced in the later installments. So I went into this movie thinking that I knew all the important story beats and it wouldn't hold any real surprises for me. Imagine my reaction when I saw Ash's white blood! I just about flipped my lid. That was such a great twist, and I'm so glad it didn't get ruined for me before I saw this movie.

Alien is my favorite movie depending on the day of the week I’m asked. On the other days, my favorite is Aliens. In my opinion it’s the greatest sequel ever made, rivaled only by Empire Strikes Back and Terminator 2. Please check it out soon and be sure to watch the Director’s Cut. In my opinion it’s the better version, but you can’t go wrong with the theatrical cut either. Couple points about this movie: the crew might have had guns but they couldn’t risk using them because the alien most likely has acid blood too. Shooting it would surely kill them all when the blood burns a hole through every floor below it. It’s not always clear to viewers, but the alien was initially standing in the hallway leading to the shuttle, so Ripley couldn’t get past it. She was trying to turn off the self destruct so she could find another way to deal with the alien. Since she was too late she had no choice but to go back and try to get past it. I don’t think Ripley hated Dallas at all. In fact, there was a scene in a version of the script where they have sex in the shuttle. Ripley was definitely frustrated with some of his decisions, and the events has her stressed out, but I don’t think she hated him. I also don’t think Ripley was ignored because she was a woman. Parker agreed with her most of the time and Lambert didn’t. It doesn’t seem like a culture of sexism to me when one of the men agrees with her and the other woman doesn’t. Ash was never going to go along with anything that went against his mission to acquire and protect an alien. Dallas and Ripley simply had good old fashioned disagreements. Unfortunately Dallas made the wrong decisions at every turn when he should have listened to Ripley. I think that’s why he insisted on going into the vents when Ripley was prepared to. He knew how dangerous it was and I think he was taking responsibility for the situation he put them in. He wasn’t about to risk any more lives other than his own.

Building the sets gave room for more creative set decorating. It's why it has such a lived-in look. And such a claustrophobic look.

The crew ignoring Ripley had nothing to do with her being a woman. Originally, Ripley was written to be a man but got changed. The ‘one person warning of danger and being ignored trope’ was very common in the 70’s. The tiny panties were a perfect distraction from seeing the alien right away. Pure Genius. Even after watching it many times over the years ( including at the theater in 1979) I didn’t realize it until I heard every reactor on KZbin comment on Ripley’s drawers. Dallas and Ripley liked one another just fine; the book mentions that they had a thing together. In the movie the only nod to it is in the end when she lists the dead, referring to everyone by their last names except Dallas. She was irritated with Dallas because he was protecting her by going into the vents. “Aliens”is the best sequel ever made. After that, I recommend skipping all the others. “Alien 3,” “Alien: Resurrection,” “Prometheus,” and “Covenant” are all bunk. But that’s my opinion.

I gotta disagree about Aliens, but I’m in the minority on that one. I consider this to be a masterpiece, and that one let me down lol. But it is quite different and meant to be. I mentioned elsewhere, but it’s reasonable to assume it’s because she’s a woman since misogyny exists in our world including when this was made. Also the few female characters who weren’t written for women (mostly by men) are some of my favorites. They’re allowed to be less stereotypical. The panties argument is a stretch lol. (Edit: a stretch on Ridley’s part if that was his justification rofl. I do also get that the movie was supposed to have a lot of se*ual imagery overall.) There are other ways we could have been distracted, and considering so many men defend and enjoy the scene shows that it served numerous purposes. XD (And no “not all men”.) But if a male character’s undies were falling off and there was some equivalent shot of his junk, everyone, especially dudes, would be complaining for days. We’re just more used to women being shot like that. Ripley in the tank is shot in a somewhat se*ual way as well, but overall, it does come across as casually realistic.

It has always been my contention that "The Company" is not behind the events of Alien. It's a single suit. Some desk driver who got a lead on the alien signal and instituted a last-minute crew member change and inserted a special parameter into the flight plan of a backwater commercial tugboat. (Not hard to do.) Someone operating under very similar circumstances to Burke. When the Nostromo disappeared, the suit covered his tracks, and Weyland-Yutani as a corporation was none the wiser. OR....If W/Y wanted an Alien so badly, they (apparently) knew where they were. They had 57 years to get one. But instead, they built a colony there, and don't even take Ripley seriously when she suddenly reappears. No, "The Company" is actually innocent on a corporate level.

I'm sure most of your viewers will want you to watch Aliens and there is a Special Edition that runs 20 minutes longer that you should watch.

Good call on sussing out Ash is an android. Have never seen your eyes so wide.

Ash's voice almost sounds like autotune. One clue that he is a Droid

43:42 they did have guns but with the acid blood they were afraid it would eat through the hull Im sorry but i really dont like the directors cut of alien. The edit from Dallas yelling at Ripley to him softly talking to ash is messy, it shows the alien too much with Bret and the coccooned dallas and bret being turned into eggs made no sense esp going into aliens (coccooning yes turning into eggs not ao much). Now watching Aliens i highly recommend the special edition it adds alot of meaning and more emotions

There's a lot of little jump cuts, extra frames, and dropped frames crossing your sources - makes viewing a little distracting, and it doesn't help when the audio cuts out sometimes on a lot of the edits. Sorry, but the sloppy edit really diminishes the reaction. Unwatchable.

No to be mean but the editing is so choppy that it make your videos almost unwatchable. I also tried Tropic Thunder and only got through about 10 min of that one too.

Ridley Scott has confirmed Alien, Predator, and Blade Runner all are in the same universe. The cool down screen in this movie can't be seen in the police sky car Spinner of Blade Runner.

He hinted at it, but I don’t think the Earth of Alien is the dying shithole that it is in Blade Runner

Ridley Scott has said a great many things, but not everything he says should be taken at face-value... Just look at the fuster-cluck that is his "prequel trilogy" for ALIEN. I don't want to spoil anything significant just incase these two plan on visiting those films as well, but I will say this much... According to Mr. Scott, in this universe Jesus was an alien of a particular variety; thus when he gets killed... Yeah, if you know, you know.

Look at some of HR Giegers art. He is right in a narrow zone between horror and porn, which is a strange place to be.

My favorite movie series. I saw it as a teenager in theatres in '79 and watch every youtuber reaction maker. Theses guys are just truck drivers not scientists, hence bad decisions. In the blue ray version you do see the alien hanging on the chains in the landing gear bay. Your editing, you tend to cut out most of the best scenes or chop them up. This I dont like.. Minus points here Well you cant have gun in a space ship. Anything breaking the hull leads to airbreach. I'd suggest you watch a reaction to this movie by EOM REACTIONS. it was his very first movie reaction and I thought he did a good job. Now there are other movies in the series. I will say this to you as I do to every other reaction maker, BUT NO ONE LISTENS> MAYBE YOU WILL BE TH E FIRST....Watch the Pre-quel PROMETHEUS before you watch the Sequeal ALIENS... The series will make so much more sense if you do. BE SURE you get the cut 5 min clip, which is here on youtune, of the deleted conversation between the Engineer and David. Play it after the movie ends. IF YOU DONT DO THIS...WELL I TOLD YOU do. There are other movies in the series Prometheus, Aliens, Alien Covenant, plus so others which I think are junk. NO CGI so it was a big real model. The Alien was just a Stan Winston creature design with guy in rubber suit. Overall on scale of 1 to 5 I give your reaction a 3. Onto PROMETHEUS next!
