If you notice, Ripley and the Queen came to an understanding, but then the Queen tried to be sneaky by opening one of her eggs behind Ripley, who saw it and gave the, "Really?" look to the Queen and THEN flamed her eggs. Hehe.

[@gryffen9608]

Thank you. I don't know why, but most people miss this. Sigourney Weaver nailed this scene in particular. You can tell Ripley just wants to get out of there. They really did come to a "mother to mother" understanding, which is why she was slowly backing up. This scene is also there to show you that the xenomorphs aren't 'just animals.' While they may be like bees in some regards, they're not just living and colonizing. They're willfully malicious. The queen just 'had to' open up that eggsack, certain Ripley wouldn't notice it happened. And yes, just like you said, Ripley gave the disgusted, " ... really?!" reaction. Only one response at that point. They would have come for Ripley and Newt anyway.

@@Biggiiful Hello there. There's nothing wrong in missing something, then having someone else point it out later. It's one of the strange gifts that comes with being a person, we each have our own perspective. Each has something to give. To me, that small scene is a great demonstration of how the only logical response to the aliens is extermination. Well, running away until you can get the ability to exterminate is also an option, but you get the point. They're not like bees. They don't contribute to the environment. They're not like sharks that only cull the herd. They're malicious, insatiable swarms. They don't have the intelligence to create a society or use tool, but they know what they're doing and they like it. Thanks again for the approval and the comment. Good journey to you.

[@vanjalavoie550]

I love the entire Alien movies.

[@Pixelologist]

The Nostromo was detoured to the planet in the first movie because of an obscure clause in their contract with Weyland Yutani. The crew were essentially interstellar long-haul truckers BUT...the corporation put it in their contract that they could be diverted to investigate signs of life/civilizations should a signal be intercepted. It was an obscure clause but obviously important to the soulless bastards at Weyland Yutani since they deemed the crew expendable in such cases. They had no training in such things but they had to do as WY told them in order to earn their paycheck.

[@courtneyvaldez7903]

I think the idea of being diverted calls back to certain maritime rules (I think...) which are common in science fiction that has space travel. Essentially, you are obligated by international/intergalactic law to investigate any distress signal because you may be the only ship capable of helping-the ocean/space is massive and very difficult to navigate. Weyland-Yutani obviously also had ulterior motives, because they’re the bad guys, but the basic concept it’s based on isn’t inherently rooted in corporate greed. It’s something the company can easily use as an excuse in the situation, but has legitimate and necessary applications.

[@SpearM3064]

@Pixelologist Actually, Courtney is right. The "obscure clause" is based on _real-world_ maritime law. Under maritime law and tradition, ships have a _legal_ and _moral_ obligation to help distressed seafarers. In a recent incident, a Princess Cruise ship failed to help three fishermen, and two of the fishermen died as a result. The captain is now serving prison time for failing to respond, and the Princess Cruise line was forced to pay fines. The Nostromo was morally and legally _required_ by law to respond to the "distress call". Where Weyland-Yutani comes into the picture is that they _knew_ it was some sort of warning beacon, not a distress call.

[@RebeccaODonnell-1941]

William Manchester, one of the great American historians, served with the First Marine Division in WWll. When he was in old age, for some reason, he started having his war nightmares again. Nothing stopped them. So he decided the only way to get rid of that awful darkness was to go back and visit every island in the Pacific he fought on. One night, when his island guides had taken him to an area he was sure he’d dug a foxhole in back in 1942, he dug a foxhole again as an old man and got in it to sleep. He woke up in the middle of the night and couldn’t remember if he was an old man revisiting his trauma, or a young Marine dreaming he was old and survived. The book was titled “Goodbye Darkness” and is one of the best WWll memoirs I’ve ever read.

[@tulinfirenze1990]

WOW!!!!

[@jonathancunningham8739]

Neat fact Al Matthews was actually in the army and fought in Vietnam as a six star Marine the Director and producer used his experience in combat and customizing the body armour which marines actually did with stickers, markings painted on decals when they where fighting in Vietnam. He even thought the cast how to hold the guns properly. PS the actor Yaphet Kotto who played Parker in Alien Died two days ago RIP. PS Micheal Biehn who played Hicks also played Kyle from terminators in case you did not know.

[@SpearM3064]

Coincidentally, the loader that Ripley used was a full-scale costume built around stuntman John Lees, who was concealed inside, immediately behind Sigourney Weaver. It weighed around 600 lbs and included hidden counterweights to help balance it, and _still_ had to be either suspended from wires (concealed within the radio antennae on the suit's shoulders) or mounted on a counterbalanced crane for filming. It featured electrically operated claws; the various hydraulic systems were cosmetic only. It was supposed to be four-legged (and in the novelization, it is) but James Cameron was worried that it would look too similar to the AT-AT from Star Wars, so it was redesigned to be bipedal. In 2018, Hacksmith Industries built a real, _working_ power loader, but it uses a tracked chassis instead of legs. This is for safety reasons, as legs are too unstable and "fail dangerously," which could injure or kill the operator if the hydraulics lose pressure or if it simply loses its balance.

[@kellyhoward6941]

I remember reading not long after the movie came out that the loader was just an actual piece of working tech, jazzed up a little to look SF-ey. But I've also read for years that bipedal robots remain a pipe dream so far, so always wondered about that tidbit about Ripley's loader. Thanks for the info!

[@KensanOni]

Both Alien and Aliens are masterpieces that are an epitome of different kinds of styles, between the Hunted Horror, and the Action Disaster. For sure, these were the best of the films of the series.

When the aliens are crawling in the ceiling, it wasn't a jump scare which was actually better. It was more like opening a cabinet and seeing several roaches, but they are also hostile towards you. It was a special creepy fear for me.

I read the scene where Ripley opens up on the egg room differently to what some people seem to.

And I was getting short, too. Ha. Four weeks! Four weeks, man, and I was out of the corps!" Hudson was scheduled to muster out of the Marines in less than a month. That's why he could sass off at anyone to at least some degree, including the sergeant. Hudson knew unless he did something really stupid, there really wasn't much they could do to him, and his superiors knew it.

The attack on their base was a clear sign of high intelligence. - Cut the power just before the attack to create confusion. - Attack simultaneously from two directions. - Cover the exits. - Quickly adapt attack vector when the pray flee through the air ducts. - Attack again from several directions. - Move in front and cut off escape routes.

[@weldonwin]

It's debatable if they actually knew to cut the power or if that was just a bonus caused by them damaging the power lines as they made their way towards them, but I will certainly agree on all the other points. The Aliens are a lot more intelligent than they appear and certainly know how to use frighteningly advanced tactics, made even worse by the fact that they don't value their individual lives. Only the survival of the Hive matters.

[@charlotteszabo]

she blew up the eggs at the end because the queen alien broke that silent trust, as they were about to leave, one of her eggs hatched, the queen obviously made that happen, so ripley was like, you wanna play dirty? fuck it! god i love this movie!

[@richardtapia2019]

What I like about james cameron's vision for aliens, is that he expanded on the nature of the xenomorphs. When a xenomorph is alone, it behaves like a lone wolf in the wild, but when they are in a pack (or hive) they behave differently. It is very 'believe-able', and expands the story of the Aliens themselves.

[@themidianite1645]

Vazquez is hot. She's also responsible for the eponymous Vasquez Dies trope. She's also not John Connor's mom, Todd. Funny fact was the illegal aliens joke was in reference to Jenette Goldstein thinking the movie was about migrant workers when she auditioned for the role of Vasquez.

I can't stop laughing. "Hudson's gonna be the first to die..watch..." minutes later "Hudson survives.... See, I knew that was gonna happen" HAHAHAHA I also LOVE the 3rd one. I know everyone hates on it, but for me it finished the story. 4 was....interesting.

[@irina1296]

I love Alien 3 and even Resurrection

[@christopheryochum3602]

It's not weird that something about Vasquez is working for you. I look forward to the pull-up scene every time I watch this.

[@HolyRomanEmperor90]

Please react to Alien 3. A lot of people don’t like it because of how dark it is, but I personally think it’s an underrated masterpiece. You have to watch the Assembly Cut, though. Not only is it way better, but it’s closer to the film that the director David Fincher originally wanted to make. The theatrical version is still watchable, but it’s completely butchered and botched.

[@d3l3tes00n]

It sucks that not many people ever watch it. SIgourney gives a great performance & rocks the shaved head.

[@NoCampDad]

Umm I think most people didn't like A3 because they f'd up the whole story from the onset.

[@Bioxidus85]

bro are you kidding i love alien 3 its my favorite cuz of that same reason i love the dark sinister atmosphere of the film and ive heard that a folks dont like it but to me its the best alien movie

[@danmiller4064]

Awesome reaction thank you

[@lorenhooke819]

Love your reaction.awesome Kool..👍👌

[@CapedInformer]

Thanks

[@SandraMorris51]

This and T2 are the best sequels ever where the second films outpace the first

[@pst5345]

Vazquez is the best. I like her a lot. Best side character.

[@kevindorn2508]

Vasquez did it for me too 😀 And yeah, the franchise is dead after 2

[@susanmaggiora4800]

I look at it as, the franchise is complete after 2, but there are still a couple movies that are great fun to watch, I just don’t use them as canon. Both Alien3 & Aliens are exciting & fun sci-fi/action movies.

[@CapedInformer]

Team Vasquez 😂

[@kamilleking4708]

It is dead after 2 for you, stop trying to influence people, with your basic-ness.

[@kevindorn2508]

@@kamilleking4708 i cant consume sht, sry. And i will always try to protect people from tasting it! In the end they become sht eating monsters who gobble up everything they get served. Its a sad sight, really. There are to many good movies to waste time with sht. Unless you like sht, then more power to you i guess... I will admit that 3 is not complete garbage and had interesting ideas. Nothing close to the masterpieces that are 1 and 2 though.

[@NeuroticNicky87]

The crew of the Nostromo didn't have a choice but to investigate the source of the beacon, it was written in their contract. They were nowhere near confident about investigating it that's why Parker was so freaked out and why Lambert was so jumpy.

[@CptColumbo]

It's Ridley Scott, not Scott Ridley. If you liked Vasquez, she's in another movie called Near Dark with two of the other cast members from Aliens. Lance Hendrickson (Bishop) and Bill Paxton (Hudson) play modern (80s) vampires.

[@Pixelologist]

Well, the series has definitely peaked. But, personally, I do like Alien 3 a lot more than other folks seem to - it's not in the same league as either of the first two and I HATED number 4.....but I definitely feel number 3's still worth a look.

[@namelessjedi2242]

I’d say they are all worth a look if you care to see them out of curiosity and interest in filmmaking, but only if you are the kind of person who can keep your own head canon and ignore stuff you don’t like, cause yeah, for me this film was effectively the end. 😉

[@AbsoluteApril]

yeah I also enjoyed 3 (and parts of 4), I understand why people didn't like them but the level of hate is something else! lol One thing most of us can probably agree on is that the AvP are the worst of the bunch (well IMO) ;)

[@shaharadegan9993]

One of my favorites, right up there with The Thing by John Carpenter.

[@vinylsolution2522]

The Cat Jonesy is the real Hero, the ultimate Survivor!!

[@ShockArcl1te]

Quality reactions!

[@davidmichaelson1092]

Vazquez rocks. She works for me as well. The whole Ripley/Sarah Connor/Vazquez strong woman thing is great and needs to be done more. And, by the way, the actress who plays Vazquez (who is Brazilian/Jewish I think) also played the step-mother in Terminator 2. So she is one of a handful of actors to be in both Terminator and Alien movies. This was one of my mother's favorite movies. I love it too and think it is the best of the franchise. I know many people like the first one best but it was disappointing to me, maybe because it was hyped at the time so much. The third I think is underrated, but it is dark...very dark. So if you liked the happy ending here, you may not like the third. The prequels are not very good (I have seen the first two) but I kind of like the backstory. So I tolerate them. SPOILER FOR ANYONE WHO HASN'T WATCHED IT...stop here if you haven't watched it. You say you hate Burke early on. Well by the end even the actor's own mother cheered when his character died.

[@All-Fur-Coat_No-Trousers]

Haha hell nah bro, something about Vasquez been working for me too since I was bout 12 years old 😆
