It's hard to imagine nowadays, but when Alien was first released, Sigourney Weaver was a largely unknown actress, so it must have come as a big surprise when prolific actors like Tom Skerritt, Ian Holm, and John Hurt were killed off, leaving Weaver as the sole survivor in the end. Similarly, when Metroid was released, most female characters in video games were just damsels in distress, so it was a big twist in the end when Samus subverted players' expectations and was revealed to be a woman under that suit. I can't help thinking that this may have been connected.

Hey Albert, here's some other references I was sure you'd include. In Alien 3 you have the Xenomorph not attack Ripley because she carries the Queen, in Super Metroid (the 3rd game) you have the titular Super Metroid stop its attack on Samus because it sees her as its mother. In Fusion (the 4th game) you have Samus infused with Metroid DNA in a similar way Ripley is a Human/Xenomorph hybrid in Alien Resurrection, as well as the military force having a bioweapon project with the Xenomorphs in the same way the Federation had a Metroid bioweapon project, you could even make the argument that the Newborn is an evil mutated version of Ripley. Then later on you could say the roles flipped, since you can clearly see some inspiration in Prometheus and Covenant, like the Black Goo being a substance that takes over the enviroment and "corrupts" the bioforms into agressive violent mutants like Phazon, or even the Ing.

Well, you wouldn't be too far off given that it has been speculated that this is the case for Fusion with the way the X parasites act and behave in Metroid; though I strongly argue that the biggest influence for Metroid Fusion's overall plot ideas are from Alien Resurrection, the one that is considered the worst one of the four Alien movies before the 2000s arrived. Guess we can now say that Resurrection did something good for once, being the main inspiration for a very good Metroid game, lol.
I would rather say that Jonesy influenced maybe the "save the animals" choice in Super Metroid since Ripley takes some extra risk saving the cat when escaping.

I see you post this on Alien Day. Also something interesting about Alien and Metroid that you didn’t mention. It seems like Metroid Fusion took some inspirations from Alien Resurrection. In Alien Resurrection, Ripley is cloned so the scientist can make new Xenomorphs after Ripley killed herself and the last Xenomorph in Alien 3. However, in the process, Ripley begins to get alot of the Xenomorph DNA in her body and even gets some of their features such as Aciblood. And well in Fusion, the federation clones new Metroids after the last were extinct in Metroid 2 and Samus is also given a cure against the X parasite with gives her a connection with the Metroids. So, I won’t be suprised if Prime 4 uses something from Alien Covenant or Prometheus to develop their ideas.

I thought it was pretty common knowledge that Alien/Aliens were HUGE inspirations for the Metroid series. Also, Sakamoto is not in any way a "creator" of Metroid. He is one of many game directors who worked on it. The ONLY game he did on his own was Other M, and we know how that turned out, lol. Metroid was created by Gunpei Yokoi. At one point I thought if a Metroid movie were ever made it would be a great homage to cast Sigourney Weaver as Samus. But too much time has passed at this point and she's simply too old now (70).

As for your question (which I dont mind you asking) the isolation as affected the production of my content in both positive and negative ways that almost counter each other out. On the positive, working from home/not as much workload from my editor/animator job has provided me with a more flexible schedule to work on Orpheon videos, especially when waiting for feedback from my clients and such. On the negative having less work than usual means I lose time trying to find more clients to work with (since a lot of production has been halted) and sometimes I get a bit of cabin fever which also halts production (for example: this video was technically done last week but fever caused me to procrastinate) but I remedy this issue with walks around the neighborhood while keeping my distance to others.

I have another theory that might have served as inspiration for Samus Visor, and perhaps im the only one who noticed it. If you look carefully at the “Alien” poster with the Egg, the Egg Hatch that shines in greens has a similar shape to samus Visor. It looks even more alike with Dark Samus Visor/Face or the Re-design Visor on Samus Returns, but it resembles the same shape. Also, Samus visor is green color. The same color on the Egg Hatch on the poster. After u see this, u will never unsee it and it will blow your mind for all the years passed unoticed 😅

I heard that the 1975 Tom Baker Doctor Who story, "The Ark in Space" also influenced Mr. Scott as well, since the way the creatures in that story reproduce is similar (and based on actual wasps who paralyze caterpillars and lay its eggs in their bodies, and when the larvae emerge, they got a ready-made food supply). It also takes place on an isolated space station, in orbit of a restored earth. Good story, I recommend watching it. tardis.fandom.com/wiki/The_Ark_in_Space_(TV_story)

Little backstory about myself and Alien & Metroid. In 2016 I was looking for good movies to watch for my autumn school break. Since it was October I started looking for horror & alien is what really interested me. So I watched them and fell in love with the franchise, I got videogames and some spin off movies, I even went to see Alien Covenant later on, it sucked but I enjoyed it. But I’m also a sucker for old video games and I then read an article about how Alien inspired videogames from the same era which was Metroid and since I already had and NES I bought Metroid in the summer of 2018. I loved it and later on I bought the Prime games and even later in 2020 I got a SNES and bought Metroid 2 and Super Metroid and now waiting here for Prime 4.

I actually watched the first two Alien movies in february for the first time and I love them so much. I watched Prometheus and Alien Covenant when they came out and I did not really like them too much. These old movies just get the perfect atmosphere that then was adapted by the Metroid games. To me it's all about being alone or being separated from the group (like in Other M) while there is a threat you might not wanna encounter. The movies are the perfect blueprint for Dead Space as well I think. Space, Spaceship, Weapon Suits and weird looking creatures are by far my favourite set piece for any type of media. Btw, all the new merch designs are crazy, I'm definitely going to order the Dark Samus one with the red japanese text even though I can't read it but it looks so good

Nice vid, it collects all the references and inspired ideas throughout the series and makes it easy to go through. I was wondering though if you'd ever make a video going over references and inspiration that Matroid may have based from other series. Like I think Metroid fusion has a lot of ideas based off of the movie, "The Thing". SA-X is essentially that monster only instead of it being an ancient entity with an uncountable amount of years preying on life through out the universe, it's a fairly new/ immature entity with the potential to be what the Thing was in that movie. I also like the idea that Metroid can house the concepts of various epic sci-fi franchises in it's own creative way.

Solid analysis! It’s really cool to see the respect shown from one massive series to another. Also, love the BN BGM, but the BN4 BGM still gives me nightmares due to all the replays, lol

Yeah I feel you, having to replay the game 3 times to get all the soul unisons was annoying

hold on a second. In Alien Resurrection, Ridleys clone had Xenomorph DNA. And in Metroid Fusion, Samus had Metroid DNA. Both games happen on a space station, and both space stations are doing highly questionable cloning experiments with the most dangerous alien species known to mankind. throw on SA-X and you have the clone angle thrown in as well. the only thing that I cannot fit into the comparison is Fusion's Adam. Or wait, wasn't there an Adam in one of the Alien movies?

In the 2000s there were attempts to make a Metroid movie but they never went though with it.

@@robertkenny1201 Like I said, I think the reason why Metroid hasn't made it to the big screen is because Metroid is too similar to Alien to the point it looks more like a copy. It would be immediately compared to Alien, it wouldn't sell well. Maybe an anime versión would be safer for the title.

You should totally update this one for Dread and It's inspiration from Prometheus! SPOILERS The Mawkin Chozo's Schemes are really similar to the Engineers using the Black Liquid, which incidentally, may have inspired the effects of the X-Parasites in the Infected Chozo Soldiers!

Am i the only one that thinks Kraid in Super Metroid looks like the Newborn Xenomorph from Alien 3?
@fajita24 жыл бұрын
Actually, it's more likely that the Xenomorph is the inspiration for the Chozo lifeforms rather than Ridley, at least physically. Look at the Chozo statues in Super Metroid, they look almost identical in design to classic Xenomorphs: long arms and legs with long, curved heads and they're always drooling/dripping liquid.
