I always wondered what it would have been like seeing Ripley deliver that line in a cinema as it's one of my favourite moments from any film. Glad to hear you had the exact experience I wished for. 😊

[@chrisrobinson3494]

And another scene that made the audience "roar" was when Ripley took control of that "Apc" vehicle and busted through that wall, wow!

[@chadstewart5610]

Totally! People went nuts every time I saw it in the theater in 1986, which was four or five times. Another movie where people were going crazy, screaming and yelling and cheering and jumping up out of their seats: “Misery.” That movie and “Aliens” are two of my favorite movie going experiences ever.

[@BryanWhite77]

I read that when Paul Reiser (Burke) went to the premiere of the movie, he took his mother with him. He was concerned how his mom would handle his death scene in the movie. When the door opened and the alien was standing there, the entire audience cheered. Paul looked at his mom and she was standing and cheering with everyone else.

[@Fedorchik1536]

This is hysterical xD Also, Paul Reiser is a comedian, so him playing the ultimate asshole in the movie is set as a big surprise for the contemporary audience.

@@Fedorchik1536 I was about to say that. And IRL he is such a nice guy. i remember that I loved his show with Helen Hunt, Mad About You.

[@mst3KGf]

Burke is such a memorable villain that a big reason Paul Reiser was cast in "Stranger Things" was because viewers would see him and think, "This guy was Burke, don't trust him" (and then of course, they pull the twist by making his character a decent guy).

Such a great reaction. It's beyond rare to find reactors who offer intelligible commentary without coming off as pretentious or cynical. Very well balanced commentary and both a voice for radio. Audio balancing was near-perfect. No excessive editing either. This movie remains my all-time favourite. Your commentary did it a lot justice. Equally impressed with the amount of care/diligence taken for both reactors and editor. A reaction by authentic people. Very refreshing.

@@OfficialMediaKnights Late to the party, but I want to add that you guys always seem to genuinely go into a movie intent on enjoying it, and watching it as a movie without too many preconceptions. I've seen some reactors who go into a movie expecting it to be bad, and make fun of it from the get go, but I much prefer it when people just watch the movie, and not immediately criticise or mock it. Especially if it's a movie that wasn't intended as a funny or bad movie, and wasn't seen that way when it came out. I don't need everyone to love every movie, not every movie is for every person, but for a reaction channel, going into it with an open mind is kind of important in my opinion, and you guys do that, at least the videos I've seen. 😊

I love how they manage to get THAT far into the movie before we actually see an actual xenomorph. Cameron is a master at building tension.

[@theveteransergeant]

Ironically, they watched the Special Edition which spoils that tension building by having the Facehugger reveal so early. The Special Edition is great for fans, but the theatrical cut is the superior version for a first time viewer. The audience experiences the movie at the same rate as the protagonists.

[@goatkiller666]

@@theveteransergeant - I agree. But, at least it was just a facehugger early on, not a full-on xenomorph. The moment the one on the wall behind Vasquez starts to move, and the audience realizes JUST how closely surrounded they are… still very impactful, even with the facehugger scene early on.

[@ProjectMayhem1971]

@@theveteransergeant100% agree. In the theatrical cut there’s a mystery as to the fate of the colonists right up until the brutal cocoon reveal; this version undercuts that mystery and the tension that comes with it. From my experience, Directors Cuts only work when excessive studio interference caused cuts that were detrimental to the director’s vision. More often than not, however, cuts that were made were done because of pacing issues and are generally proven to have been correct decisions.

Supposedly, the script was originally titled "Mother". James Cameron says that he wrote scripts for fun and came up with an idea for space marines marooned on a desert planet with hive-like space bugs. The title "Mother" was in reference to a human mother who lost her child against the space bug "mother" as you point out. Supposedly, when Cameron was offered the sequel to Alien, he was asked if he had any ideas to which Cameron said, "I have a few" pulled out the script for "Mother" changed the names and reconfigured the main character to be Ripley and turned it in.

[@mickesmanymovies]

The nest-scene is my favourite scene in the whole movie. It communicates an extraordinary amount, with zero words, with Ripley basically bargaining for her and Newts safe passage out of there, and the alien queen actually agreeing to let her go... Ripleys head tilt as the egg opens is just a fantastic insert. The only ones that can't be trusted to honor an agreement are the babies, who operate on pure instinct, and that head tilt just says "Well, shit...", and after that all bets are off!

Hicks sleeping is, just like you said, common military "strategy", to get some shut eye any chance you're given, and it also shows how much experience he has of these things (in comparison to the scared-shitless Gorman). He is able to sleep in the chaos, the noise and the shaking - because he's done it so many time before.

"How have they not built a Alien theme attraction already" They did in London. Pepsi-Max Theatre. It was called "Alien War". It was opened by Sigourney Weaver herself, as well as Lance Henriksen and a Couple of Alien 3 actors ... and they tried it out... they said they was terrified. It featured Marines evacuating civilians through a invested colony. It had people in Xenomorph suits and holograms. I went there as a teenager and was traumatised... the acting was on point and the effects were amazing... i was scared out of my skin. I also tripped at the end of the tour and fell behind... so much so that the actors in Xenomorph suits had to improvise and started grabbing us and pulling us back into the "Hive"... i ran out crying my eyes off. Best experience ever... especially since i have always been a fan of the franchise. Also Alien 3 is worth a watch. It's not as good as 1 or 2 and is depressing and controversial. But it's gory, Ripley is a baddass and is the true end to the saga.

In the script, James Cameron describes the Alien Queen as ‘horror incarnate’, which is pretty damn fitting. Also that Ripley realizes that she must have passed underneath it at some point and if she had looked up she probably wouldn’t have the nerve to go on.

I am really glad that you mentioned that its not about the shock effect, but about clever writing.

I've been a Director's Cut stan since it was released (probably seriously upwards of 300 times, if not more) but watching the theatrical is still special.

[@EWembley501]

@@chrisguthrie4099 Agree with the colony and sentry gun scenes, but cutting the part about Ripley's daughter was terrible. Unlike the colony and sentry gun, that was a major plot point. It only lasted a couple of minutes, so they could have squeezed that in. For those of you who are wondering why they had to cut the length: 1984 was in the era before multiplexes, so most theaters just had one screen. If the movie was long, that limited the number of times a movie could be played in a day and its profitability.

The situation with the woman and the chest burster is sadder than what you see.

To its defense? The set design was on point (creepy, industrial, forbiding, apocolyptic atmosphere), and production trouble was so bad it's actually a testament to the Director's talent (same guy who did Seven and Fight Club). A testement in the fact they managed to get anything out at all. Still a crap film though...though not near as bad as Weadon's wank fest, nor Ridley Scott's prequels (I swear those 2 films are made by a AI script bot that was exposed to too many euphoric atheist reddit threads). If you want a GOOD Alien 3? Darkhorse published the unused William Gibson (father of the Cyberpunk genre) script as a comic, and they latter made that into an audio drama. In the Audio Drama Lance Henrickson and Michael Bien both represent their roles.
