A picture truly is worth a thousand words: 1- The presence of mug and ashtray gives the impression of a lived in space; someone sat here for hours doing some obviously boring task. 2- The exposed wire visable in the lower corner and the missing component just beneath the lights under the screen hints that the Nostromo is way past its warranty and is held together by ducktape. Telling a story with no words is an art.

Nah, the ashtray and mug are Ridley Scott's, he just forgot to take them away before cameras rolled.

sadly this kind of wire / tape shennanigans are around in every stupid hollywood and videogame starship, but if we continue the way we do its going to be beliveable that in the future humanity isnt capable of building only one single funtioning spaceship...

Yeah, I love hyper-advanced spacecraft that rely on janky old computer tech that sounds like it's going to malfunction any moment. We need more 70s style sci fi aesthetics.

@@ttrestleI know it’s Alien. I’m saying that Ridley Scott uses the same sounds in his sci fi movie. The female voice is the same as in Tyrell room scene. The CRT display is the same layout as purge scene in BR.

Godammit Dallas. You’re still blind on B and C decks, and the reserve power system’s still blown, AND you’re gonna douse navigation in Folgers. Why don’t you crunch up your Oreos into the Mother console while you’re at it?

Before computer became a normal part of our lives the general public assumed by default that all sounds made by a computer in a movie had a practical origin. It took a whole generation of gamers to get used to the idea that you could customise your user interface to an infinite degree. The takeaway was a computer could look and sound however you wanted. But SciFi TV production had a lot of difficulty dealing with this issue. Remember the DS9 main computer? How federation personnel simply accepted that exotic cardasian interface, despite all the hassles that continually presented. Indeed there were several episodes where hidden features of the main computer were a major plot device. This makes no sense to me. Who would put their lives on the line for exotic tech they did not fully understand? At the very least you would be doing a complete software re-install. Back to the Nostromo. The ships computer sounds the way it does, because that is what the IT personnel or the captain chose. While the ship is clearly a dramatic device and a character in its own right in a horror movie, there are good reasons not to make a ships interior feel like a home away from home. A stark utilitarian environment keeps a crew on their toes. There is no room for unforced error in space. There was a lot of science done surrounding human reaction to various alert sounds for aircraft, trains, and ships etc. While futuristic drama played a lot over the years with sound effects, there was a lot of hangover from the 60s, concerning ‘futuristic’ sound effects for the sake of being futuristic.

Ridley scot re-used sounds from alien for later movies like blade runner and legend. There are computer sounds from both films in this. Plus new sounds that weren't in either

There's eight crew members. Well, an agent of the corporation to be precise. His name is Jones aka Jonesy. The agent made sure that the crew was denied their bonus so that the corporation's payroll could be made within budget.
@Daniel_Lancelin9 ай бұрын
I won't take this Jonesy slander! That cat is as much of a survivor as Ripley; just imagine all the times the xenomorph probably tried to turn him into an appetizer while it was lurking around. Jokes aside though, he's one of my favorite horror movie animals, along with Jed (the dog that played the infected husky in The Thing).
