This was what I've been wanting most of my life. More external shots of the Nostromo in LV426. This was more than I could hope. Utterly fascinating and greatly adds to the sequence for a long time Alien obsessive.
I like this too; yet there is something about the sparseness of the effects in the original which gives it so much authenticity. That is, unlike movies today, SFX were a part of the story and they helped to move the narrative along, but were NOT the main reason to see the picture.
2001, Blade Runner, Alien, Forbidden Planet, Silent Running, Solaris... all up there. I'd even include The Black Hole and the first Star Trek movie, superb!
I remember my jaw dropping in the cinema. This landing sequence was so impressive at the time. Real gritty SF. Thanks for adding to the experience. I loved it.
Crazy how many people here think this is the original sequence in the film. However this is still a cool fan made reimagining of it, some parts of it were downright impressive. Excellent job for what it's worth.

Never seen before sequence) and even before the rcs thruster like effect ruclips.net/video/0k5eziWR7Gc/видео.html Also at ruclips.net/video/0k5eziWR7Gc/видео.html - this is the most obvious new insert There are much more after that - lost of cgi generated sequences of the ships exteriour I would have noticed after sseing the movie in all different versions more than 90 times.

Agreed. Jerry Goldsmith is one of the best film score composers Hollywood has ever found. Right up on the top tier with John Williams, in my opinion. His work for Alien was outstanding for tension, drama and mood. Interesting that some music included in the film was actually composed for an earlier film called “Freud” also composed by Goldsmith, but about which inclusion he was not happy.
@@manuelalvarado6510And, if you are old enough to remember, it had an Overture that played to a blank screen in the theater before the movie started. Very old fashioned.
The film was made in 1979 it still looks modern as Tom skerrit ( who played Captain Dallas) said in a tv show it hasn't aged much because of it's computer screens/ digital media especially at the beginning of the film when thet ship suddenly came to life. Excelsior!
The reason why this movie is the best and i love Aliens is the fact youve no idea what they are going down to find. The tension this film gives throughout the movie is non stop, to the facehugger to the chestburst. As soon as that happens your on the edge with tensions nerves just like the characters. Then the plot twist and i wont go into spoilers but its one of the best horror movies ever.
That was such an amazing classic movie. Everything about it was incredible The graphics on the computer monitor wasn't what would likely be seen today, but it was still jaw-dropping at the time. The cast was top notch. It's got to be one of the best movies made. Even seeing it now, it's still filled with almost non-stop tension, jump scares and excitement.
I think the effects hold up nicely, including the computer graphics. They represented the state of the art in 1978, but who's to say that things would not come full-circle, and graphic displays are once again simplified? After all, "glass cockpits" in today's fighter jets merely mimic their analog forebears. Just sayin'.
Saw it in theaters on opening weekend 1979. I was 12 years old and it was the first “R” rated movie I’d ever seen. Dad took me to see it. I’ve been a fan of the series ever since. RIP pop..
I'm a die-hard fan of the original and remember seeing it on release back in 1979. I've watched it many times since throughout all its special editions but this was what I wish might have been. Congratulations on a brilliant job! I'm sure all of us aficionados who sit there gazing at their replica Nostromos will look at it in a new light after seeing this. Thank you for your considerable effort.
My grandmother started taking me to do things when we moved to Denver. I was 10, she thought I might like this as I was a sci-fi space nerd. Loved this movie! Thanks nana, good call! Within a year, she was taking me to see LaserRock: Rush at the planetarium. Seriously...awesome!
Laser Floyd…Gates Planetarium.🤘🏼 Saw Alien in 79 at the old Gothic Theater (South Broadway near Hampden) up in the balcony. Smoking was still allowed then making cool shapes in the projector light shaft. First R rated movie I saw and scared the hell out of me watching the birth.
@@IanCthrwd I performed laser shows at the old Gates Planetarium from '82 to '88. I was also an artist for the planetarium as well. Laserium was at the Gates before we got there. We were called Audio Visual Imagineering.
It is my understanding that when the production team started they sought out engineers from NASA to help. They asked the NASA engineers what a space freighter and its planetary landing craft might look like in the year 2122 and came up with the craft. Hats off to the Alien production team for going that far to create what seems so very real 143 years ahead of 1979.
As a teen, a friend who had contacts got the pair of us tickets to a preview screening of the full movie. Some others who attended were adults who turned up with their kids with them, thinking it was another ET. And then the chest burster happened, and they were scurrying out. Good times.
This is really well done, I especially appreciate the addition of the boulders collapsing under the ship's weight when the landing gear touches down, to explain why everything suddenly goes to hell as soon as they hit the ground.
Seen this move on opening week 1979, It's stay with me all my life. Thank you for adding to the movie. It doesn't distract at all from an already perfect film, ❤
I was 13 years old in 1979 and I went to the theater to see it with my cousin. It was the first R-rated movie either of us had ever been to and we were by ourselves.
Somebody was creative in this fine adaptation. I even liked, no, even loved the CGI showing the loss of one of nostromo's shields. And the hydraulics- a CGI masterpiece. And the moon & planetary surfaces, excellent. One thing was missing however, the terrain on LV426 didn't look like bones. That was It's only set back.
None of this is CGI (not in the modern sense, the displays in the ship use basic graphics), it's 'Visual effects' incorporating model work, matte paintings, scaled down weather effects scenes and composites of the above. This was all possible because of the physical skill of the craftsmen involved and the editing team.
@@domedwards5256 This version has added CGI. And the displays on screen in the original elements were not basic graphics in 78 either, they were custom built animations by noted graphic effects designer Bernard Lodge.
Beautiful work, Marcelo! I can tell that you have much respect for the source material. I was a teenager when this film premiered, and it has long been one of my faves. The landing sequence in the original transported me, and you have done a wonderful job of "enhancing" it here. Bravo, sir!
I'm a die hard fan of the original, and I loved this. This really adds to the scene. We never really get a decent feel for the shape of the ship. I suppose it was never about beauty shots of the ship, keeping us disoriented, but I love seeing it here like this. Really well done.
Nothing beautiful about the ship. It was a workship. Similiar to a garbage scow..Notice the dining room scene where there is food, cups, trash, and flotsam all over. Not the USS Enterprise, more like some Polish freighter hauling scrap Iron to Nigeria
Dude, this is awesome! I've been thinking about this scene and details since childhood. You have to understand - the Nostromo itself is a ship that flies in outer space for many years, without maintenance. And upon entering the planet’s atmosphere, under overloads, it broke! True astrophobia.
Excellent ! ! ! Ces images devraient intégrer le film original car elle sont fabuleuses ! ! Magnifique ! Splendide ! De plus elles ne dénaturent pas le film. Au contraire, elles apportent un plus phénoménale. Bravo !
Honestly the effects of the ship are so we'll done and well edited within this sequence, you really should send this to Disney and to Ridley Scott as well! Superb job!! 👏👏
Amazing work ! For the space part, i still prefer the movie version (i feel it's more moody, slow and darker but it's my personal taste too !), but you 100% nailed the atmospheric part, i really like what you did there !
Great job! Your work in the CGI shots and their clever integration makes the scene more thrilling than it already was. You also show the Nostromo in all its glory.
Когда впервые смотрел "Чужой" в детстве (1987 году) кирпичи откладывал. Потом ночью заснуть не мог. Все было круто - сюжет, спецэффекты, визуальная часть, музыка. Спасибо Р.Скотту за фильм, Х.Гигеру за ксеноморфа, Д.Голдсмиту за музыку.
I love this, it feels a lot more like an actual spacecraft entering orbit, atmosphere and landing, but most importantly, the exact entirety of Nostromo. I always got confused by its scale, and just what part of the whole thing is Nostromo exactly, the interior seems both claustrophobic and gigantic at the same time. 1:52 Now I know it all happened on that ship.
Personally, I'd say it all depends on specific genres, as each category will have its own classics. For my money though, Alien and John Carpenter's The Thing are the two finest examples of horror ever created, while Blade Runner is, without a shadow of a doubt, the greatest fantasy sci-fi film that I've ever watched, bar none. It's all in the eye of the beholder, I guess.
@peterwebster6955 he's right,each to their own, some like Horror, war, crime, musicals, westerns etc but as you say, we are all allowed an opinion though in this day & age alot of people think your not unless it fits a narrative
Dude... you pick the best subjects to do this work on! I mean, I love me some CONSTITUTION CLASS/D7 Star Trek and all, but really, everyone's doing that... no one has taken this on yet. Beautiful.
Ridley Scott - really lifted the game in the sci-fi genre. And pretty much anything else he directed. Saw it at the drive-in with friends, my mouth hanging open for the 1st half hour.
At first I thought, hey I don’t recall these external shots, then I checked the comments and clicked on ‘more’. Very nicely done sir and the editing between what you added and the original…spot on, I think Ridley would approve. 👍👏
What they got RIGHT was that since space is vacuum, you don't constantly run the engines like you hear in star wars and other space movies. This was done with sets, scale models and practical effects and for the 1970s was simple amazing
That re-do of the landing was bloody-damn *good!* If the copyright holders authorized a remastered version, they should hire the author of this scene. This is a link worth saving.
Thanks Marcelo for a wonderful re-rendering of such a classic scene...Particularly the replacement of the necessarily awkward camera effect "Roll 92 degrees, port yaw" scene with that unwieldy original physical Nostromo model. That being said, I will always be jealous of what those original model makers and effects team made.
Pretty amazing work! +1 on seeing the original ALien in '79 with my dad and younger brother. This sequence is the way the movie should have looked if it could have.
I remember seeing that album cover (a bit after this came out, I think my older brother got it for Christmas that year) and thinking they had taken it from this movie. In 1979 we didn't have the Internet to tell us these things.
*I want to go back and live it all over again. The 70’s and 80’s were the best years of my life. We had the best music that had meaning and the best TV shows and special back then and lived in the last of the best decades in America..it was the party of a life time and we lived it well. We had great shows like, Falcon Crest, Dallas, Knots Landing, Dynasty,The Waltons, Little House on the Prairie, ALF, The Six Million dollar man, The Dukes of Hazard, BJ and the Bear, Air Wolf, Battle Star Galactica! Knight Rider *and for the first time ever the motion pictures of, Star Wars, Star Trek, Superman, Spider Man, Close Encounters of the third kind, E.T., Poltergeist, Jaws, Friday the 13th, Aliens, (No not the ones being aloud to just walk into our country right now in 2024), Predator and many more*… We also celebrated the bicentennial in the 70’s when the entire country celebrated it from Apr 1, 1975 - Jul 4, 1976. It was like the 4th of July every day. It was fantastic!.…it was such a better time to be alive in this county. We never had the problems that are here today. It was unheard of for kids being shot and men walking around dressed as women. It was the best years of my life, It was the last of America and we were lucky to have experienced it.*
Some of these shots were CGI, especially with the landing legs crushing the rock. In the original it was much slower and one of the toes of the landing leg bent upwards, it didnt destroy the rock. This was a pretty damn good fan made remake of some of the ship shots, keeping true to the style of the original esthetic, but this wasnt all original footage.
WELL DONE! Alien is my all-time favourite and I'm very leery about anyone messing with it, but you got all the technical details right and the blue hue of the planet fitted with the on-the ground scenes. The landing leg hitting the rock was the only detraction, it looked a bit cartoonish, and I would have liked to have seen a more Giger-inspired landscape, but I'm nitpicking, I loved this updating of the landing scene. Thanks for taking the trouble it must have been a lot of work.
I saw it in '79 at age 11 with my father. It was my first R rated movie. Amazing production design.
My dad died yesterday. Rest in peace, dad...😢
He seemed to be a very nice man. Taking your 11 year old son to an R rated is something that doesn't exist anymore.
My dad passed away exactly 6 years ago, I still miss him very much
He comes in the dreams
I share your pain
Take care
My condolences. 🙏
My deepest condolences, friend. He lives on in you 🙏🏻👼
Dude that’s a memory ,mine is being five watching Star Wars with my dad on opening day will never ever forget it

@peterwebster6955 he's right,each to their own, some like Horror, war, crime, musicals, westerns etc but as you say, we are all allowed an opinion though in this day & age alot of people think your not unless it fits a narrative
@@Turrican60All your pics are great not a poor film in any.
That Jerry Goldsmith score is absolutely outstanding! Just isn’t the same without it.
1st time ive seen this footage, thanks ! i shared it on youtube .
Dude... you pick the best subjects to do this work on!
I mean, I love me some CONSTITUTION CLASS/D7 Star Trek and all, but really, everyone's doing that... no one has taken this on yet. Beautiful.
Tremendous work, truly. Almost wish the OV looked this good. (Almost)
I just graduated High school when this was released. Star Wars 77", Animal House & Superman 78', Alien 79'
I like how these effects stay true to the atmospheric quality of the original for Alien. Thanks for sharing. 👍🏻
Jerry Goldsmith's soundtrack is EVERYTHING here.
Ridley Scott - really lifted the game in the sci-fi genre. And pretty much anything else he directed.
Saw it at the drive-in with friends, my mouth hanging open for the 1st half hour.
I bought the 4k version of Alien yesterday. Really worth watching...
Still remember watching this on home video as a kid. Great work as always. Hope to see more from the Aliens Universe.
Your Nostromo model is spot on! Not even going to name all of your tiny details but I saw every one of them. Well done!
L'un des meilleurs films de sciences fiction. Le vaisseau et sa navette sont troublants de réalisme. 👍
Groove is timeless. This movie will never cease to ROCK!
Nicely done. Just the right amount of new scenes to enhance the Nostromo landing on LV 426.
Well done Marcelo. Well done.
At first I thought, hey I don’t recall these external shots, then I checked the comments and clicked on ‘more’. Very nicely done sir and the editing between what you added and the original…spot on, I think Ridley would approve. 👍👏
AMAZING WORK!! Subtle upgrades are the best!
This is just gorgeous!
I love how the final descent conjures the landing of Prometheus.
Top-drawer work, sir!
Outstanding work. The shield coming off was really satisfying to finally see!
This is great! The way you have seamlessly integrated your new visuals with the original film is impressive!
This looks beautiful. It's wild that everything about this movie was ominous, even the descent to the planet's surface.
What they got RIGHT was that since space is vacuum, you don't constantly run the engines like you hear in star wars and other space movies. This was done with sets, scale models and practical effects and for the 1970s was simple amazing
That re-do of the landing was bloody-damn *good!* If the copyright holders authorized a remastered version, they should hire the author of this scene. This is a link worth saving.
Some of the best Goldsmith music to this scene.
Thanks Marcelo for a wonderful re-rendering of such a classic scene...Particularly the replacement of the necessarily awkward camera effect "Roll 92 degrees, port yaw" scene with that unwieldy original physical Nostromo model.
That being said, I will always be jealous of what those original model makers and effects team made.
Awesome, just awesome. I always imagined that scene to get some updates like that.
Pretty amazing work! +1 on seeing the original ALien in '79 with my dad and younger brother. This sequence is the way the movie should have looked if it could have.
The music is nice and that tridimensional plug on the Wow Signal, also popularized through the mythical Joy Division album, is simply irresistible. ❤
I remember seeing that album cover (a bit after this came out, I think my older brother got it for Christmas that year) and thinking they had taken it from this movie. In 1979 we didn't have the Internet to tell us these things.
Just finished watching the movie. Your reimagining of the special effects for this scene is EXCELLENT!
I saw this movie for first time in 1990 ,I was 8 years old.
Yea me too. Such a classic
You were as traumatised as me then 😂😂.
11 in 1982, and right after ET the extraterrestrial. And traumatised!
I saw it in theatres when it was released in 1979, I was 20. Spooked the hell out of me. Few movies did that to me. Another was 1982's The Thing.
I bet you sh1t your underwear
Dude, this is AMAZING! Like WOW. You should do more of these!
Finally I see straight lights
Yes. The non-aligned lights have always bothered me, but not enough to not enjoy this si-fi masterpiece.
Wow!!! Beautiful work classing up the ole Nostromo. Really tastefully done. Alien has a special place in my theatrical movie experience.
*I want to go back and live it all over again. The 70’s and 80’s were the best years of my life. We had the best music that had meaning and the best TV shows and special back then and lived in the last of the best decades in America..it was the party of a life time and we lived it well. We had great shows like, Falcon Crest, Dallas, Knots Landing, Dynasty,The Waltons, Little House on the Prairie, ALF, The Six Million dollar man, The Dukes of Hazard, BJ and the Bear, Air Wolf, Battle Star Galactica! Knight Rider *and for the first time ever the motion pictures of, Star Wars, Star Trek, Superman, Spider Man, Close Encounters of the third kind, E.T., Poltergeist, Jaws, Friday the 13th, Aliens, (No not the ones being aloud to just walk into our country right now in 2024), Predator and many more*… We also celebrated the bicentennial in the 70’s when the entire country celebrated it from Apr 1, 1975 - Jul 4, 1976. It was like the 4th of July every day. It was fantastic!.…it was such a better time to be alive in this county. We never had the problems that are here today. It was unheard of for kids being shot and men walking around dressed as women. It was the best years of my life, It was the last of America and we were lucky to have experienced it.*
That was simply gorgeous, well done.
No CGI kids. Just pure art. Still looks good today.
Some of these shots were CGI, especially with the landing legs crushing the rock. In the original it was much slower and one of the toes of the landing leg bent upwards, it didnt destroy the rock. This was a pretty damn good fan made remake of some of the ship shots, keeping true to the style of the original esthetic, but this wasnt all original footage.
@@Bennyboy087THERE WHERE NOO CGI IN THE ORIGINAL MOVIE !!!!! ONLY PAINTINGS AND MODELS !!!!
@@bengtwahlstedt1021 He was talking about this video on you tube you numpty with caps on!
@@bengtwahlstedt1021 True, but this isn't the original movie, it's original movie footage spliced with new fan made visual FX of the Nostromo landing.
This isn't the original scene. Its a fan-made CGI enhanced version:)
WELL DONE! Alien is my all-time favourite and I'm very leery about anyone messing with it, but you got all the technical details right and the blue hue of the planet fitted with the on-the ground scenes. The landing leg hitting the rock was the only detraction, it looked a bit cartoonish, and I would have liked to have seen a more Giger-inspired landscape, but I'm nitpicking, I loved this updating of the landing scene. Thanks for taking the trouble it must have been a lot of work.
