    Alien: Isolation does a brilliant job of building on the aesthetic of this film, and it's completely terrifying. The first time you encounter the alien was so upsetting to me I had to quit the game. Never played it again. By encounter I mean you're cornered and have to escape.

    • @mikelelele7112

      I've played the game multiple times and.... well... yeah. Sometimes I get a little bit panicky but it's all controlled.
      Getting control over one's anxiety, stress and shutting down the urge to run is the hardest part of learning to play the game. The first part of the game is definitely more difficult in terms of the amount of stealth needed.
      I give the game props for doing this mostly without jumpscares. XD

  • @Fardawg
    @Fardawg 4 года назад +7

    While Scott prefers the theatrical cut, he did oversee the "director's cut" as he didn't like what they proposed for a longer cut. So he made an "alternate cut" that is actually a little shorter than the theatrical. It was Alien 3 where the director, David Fincher, had no input on the special edition cut; he barely had any input on the theatrical version either.

      Fardawg Maybe he confused the work print with the DC.

    • @Fardawg
      @Fardawg 4 года назад

      @@DeanStrickson If the workprint was available to watch, like it is with Blade Runner, then it would make sense to confuse them, but I only know of fan edits trying to reconstruct it from deleted scenes. And there is no existing sex scene, that was only in a script and a short screen test. He was basically bashing a non-existent version and confusing it with the DC. The problem is that these kinds of things tend to spread and get repeated. I'm not actually mad at him, Rick is my favorite crew member, but there tends to be a lot of misinformation around here and it is said as if they know them as facts rather than guesses or possibilities. It wouldn't have taken long to get a refresher over what is and isn't in the DC before filming, rather than just going off memory. That's a pet peeve of mine as people can tend to trust "facts" that get thrown around. I've seen it way too many times over the years.

    ALIEN is a perfect blend of sci-fi and horror while ALIENS is a bombastic action film. Terminator 1 is like ALIEN and T2 is like ALIENS. And ALIEN 3 and T3 are not well liked and the following sequels weren't well received either.

    I love Alien, but Aliens is one of my favorite movies of all time. I've probably seen it dozens of times. I think it would make a great reaction/commentary. More interesting characters, great set pieces, and in general there's a lot more going on plot-wise. It's definitely a Terminator to Terminator 2 level escalation.

    • @brettthebest3978
      @brettthebest3978 2 года назад +1

      Its ur opinion of course but to me alien is far superior to aliens
      More memorial characters doesn’t mean better, what makes the original alien cast better is how simple they are, its kinda surreal of how normal the characters are of being in space
      Alien has better set design because of how the atmosphere and set work together so well also the design of everything alien is one of the best ever
      I like aliens but sadly its effects is very old looking now like with the ship flying and others examples also its look is kinda generic
      Ur right about aliens having alot more going on with the plot but sadly it loses its great atmosphere, tone and overall theme
      Also having more plot doesn’t mean better like 2001 a space odyssey has very simple characters and story but everything is spectacular of its look and feel
      im not saying ur opinion is wrong they are both great movies but I just feel alien is a masterpiece of just being a movie and aliens is a masterpiece of action but thats it

    You want something funny about that movie ? If it wasn't for the failed attempt at making Jorodowsky's Dune, that movie might not have existed, or at least at this level ! HR Giger, the creator of the creature was found by the crew of Dune's for the design of the Harkonnen and Dan O'Bannon who worked on the script for both movie remembered his crazy desings ! In fact many of the design from the design book from Jorodowsky's Dune are found in many Sci-Fi movie from the 80's and even 90's with Contact for exemple...also some who worked on Dune crew endend up working on the Star Wars crew as well...to many, Jorodowsky's Dune failure as molded the Sci-Fi as we know it now ! There is a documentary about that failed movie and it's fascinating how a failure could influence so much a genre ! Also Ridley Scott at a point was supposed to take Dune in the 70's but his brother just died that year...who knows what would have happened ?! He directed Alien after his mourning period and it gave him the drive to do more movie !

    Great movie, poor reaction. Childish 'v' obsessions aside there was a lot of 'Morris the explainer' chatter rather than reactions. A lot of it was from future releases in the franchise that were not even contemplated with this movie. Movies of this era rarely planned for sequels until after proven success. I saw it in the theater when it was released and did not need someone to explain the characters motivations or add in information that, at the time, did not exist. We watched in silence to hear the key dialog. Reacting as a group is great but stick with what is in front of you at the time.
