Practical effects never age. Because they're perfect to the eye when they were created they'll always look that good on screen, unlike digital effects that will always be compared to the quality of effects at the time you're watching it. You can see it even in movies like Iron Man, where the digital effects are dated compared to what can be done now. As the tech is always evolving and improving it's likely all movies with a lot of digital will look out of date within 15-20 years. You can really see the difference between Aliens and Alien 3, the latter being the first one to use digital effects. If they'd used practical in that movie it would likely be a classic in the same way the first two are.
The facehugger egg - and then the facehugger on the face - and then the innards (which were made up of offcuts from the butchers) ... perfect - REAL, completely believable. ALIEN's triumph is that it set up a truly real biological organism to be feared - using pieces of real biological organisms!
They did know, but it was meant to go through on the first spurt, they actors froze not knowing what to do and Ridley said to keep going. When it finally went through it was more blood than they were expecting And when they got sprayed their shocked screams were real
@@TeamMemberNumberEight That's true. The big "making of" book confirms they knew generally what was going to happen, but not specifically. It really took them by surprise, especially Veronica Cartwright.
Yes, there have been strong female leads in every decade of movie making. It's DAMSEL in distress. You may have been thinking DENZEL in distress, which is when Denzel Washington makes a bad movie. Lastly, you can't get the full effect on a small screen. In 1979 you were forced to watch this in a dark theater on a giant screen, with great sound, no breaks, no escape 😁
I saw this as a revival showing at a theater a few years ago. I'd seen it several times before, and the theater showing still got to me. I saw a bunch of teens there, too. Before the movie, they were joking around; I assume they hadn't seen it before. When the movie was over, they were totally silent when they walked out.
While female leads weren't new it was new to have someone like Weaver being an action hero, and I'm sure you know, being around at the time, she was almost completely unknown while several of her co-stars were already major names, so a lot of people going in to see this would have had no clue that Ripley would be the last one standing and become the hero of the movie. That's another reason why I think this movie is so pivotal. Ripley created an entirely new idea of what a female hero could be, and if it weren't for Alien who knows whether we would have had Sarah Connor, GI Jane or even Lara Croft?
@@ct5625 you made one mistake. Aliens is an action movie. Alien is a horror movie and bad arse women had been common in horror since at least the Early to mid 70s.
@@ct5625 Wrong, C Thomas. None of those co-stars were "major names". At best, a few were familiar faces, character actors from other movies, but nobody in that movie was a "major name". That's what made it great; since everyone in the movie that you DID recognize were not known as lead actors, it was all up for grabs who the "main" character was. NOW you now all those names, you know who Harry Dean Stanton is. Maybe someone remembered Tom Skerrit from "MASH", 9 years earlier, or Yaphet Koto from "Live And Let Die" (a completely different character), or maybe they remembered John Hurt from "I, Claudius". I knew Veronica Cartright from "Invasion Of The Body Snatchers" the year before, where she (again) was a supporting character, similar to the one in Alien. Ian Holm was certainly an actor some people knew, but he wasn't a household name in any way.
One the elements this movie has that sold me on the horror is how realistic the interior of the ship is. It looks like a place where space miners would be working. It looks like it's been used on plenty of missions. Some areas are clean, some areas are grimy. It's the kind of ship where if I was sitting at the table I wouldn't be surprised if I could brush my hand under the table and feel some dried gum there that someone had stuck under the table at some point the past. You can't say that about a lot of ships in science fiction.
A tramp steamer in space, towing a huge refinery. The crews main area is as comfortable as necessary, and only as necessary, the rest is functional, just like ships today.
Fun fact: Ridley Scott, _Alien's_ director, was a designer at the BBC in 1963, when _Doctor Who_ first hit our screens. In fact, Scott was appointed to work on the original Dalek story, but a scheduling clash meant he couldn't make it. Instead, the gig went to Ray Cusick, who produced the iconic Dalek design we know and love today.
The ship was an oil refinery. Hence the multiple explosions. The first was the tug ship Nostromo that then set off the oil pods it was towing. This movie was done on a low budget. The sequel on a huge budget. They actually used such high tech materials in this first film for the Alien's head. KY Jelly and condoms (for the jaw hinges). True story.
H. R. Giger designed the Alien creature to evoke fears of machinery, darkness, and rape. Fascinating that after all these years of merchandising and copying it still has original effect
I saw this first run, in a theater. Let me tell you, in 1979, that chest popping scene straight FLOORED you. I'm 6'3", was 20 at the time, thought I wasn't afraid of anything.....I had to go the restroom for a few minutes to compose myself. It's almost amateurish compared to today's effects but for the time, it was horrifying.
Mark 27:30. The wardrobe/costume person, went to a lot of effort to come up with, "futuristic underwear", for "Ellen Ripley" to be seen in, only for it to be quickly copied and adapted in Real Life, so now it looks "quaint", as in "not futuristic enough". Now as of 2009, as seen in "Star Trek", they don't even bother any more, to try and be "Futuristic". Just "practical" and/or "basic functionality". Though in their case, it is ironic, because with the original series and "STTNG", some thought underwear functions were made into the uniforms rather than separate. But cast members wearing their actual underwear anyway and being noticed too, had people saying it was still separate. The 2009 movie, brought controversy from some for having people shown in their underwear, for both genders, without realizing that such scenes ended the debate about whether or not underwear was still a thing in "The Future", or at least in the franchise anyway. 🤔
I still remember the original ad for this movie. It started with an egg cracking open followed by an ominous voice saying "In space, nobody can hear you scream." And ALIEN popping in at the top of the screen. It entranced me, but then again I was 4 at the time.
The fully-grown alien in this is totally misunderstood - he's just trying to give everyone a big smoochy kiss. It's not his fault that humans are so darn fragile. :D
I would speculate they are all alienphobic, with an irrational hatred that causes them all to misinterpret its homicidal tendencies, such as the need to kill, when it's really and obviously a cry for help.
Mark 19:10 or so. The extended arms! They just laughed at it as "being cheesy" for looking like a guy in a suit. But upon seeing it now, I belatedly realised why in "Spaceballs", their spoof of it, did an impression of, Al Jolson, singing "Mammy", because he did that with his arms when singing the song. 😅😂
This story is often blown out of proportion. In truth, the schedule for the day was to shoot the "chest-burster" scene, but when the actors arrived they were told that they were going to be doing the "b-roll" type shots first (the wide shots of them joking and eating together). Ridley Scott and John Hurt (and maybe 1 or 2 others) had concocted the idea to get "the real reactions" from the other actors by having John fake like he was choking. The reactions of him choking up until the blood is splashed onto his chest are of some/most of the cast thinking their castmate is choking to death. And even after the blood splatter, Ridley continued to film and urged the cast to continue with the scene, most (if not all), unaware that John was never actually choking.
It's a mining freighter. It's carrying a load of ore, from a mining colony back to Earth. On the way back, the ship's computer "Mother" picks up the "Quarantine: Do not approach" signal and changes course to do the exact opposite, per The Company's instructions, and collect a specimen. Ash lies and tells everyone that the warning is a distress signal which they are under contract to investigate in case anyone needs assistance. In the sequel, (Slight spoilers) The company denies all knowledge of anything and doesn't believe her story. It's possible that the whole thing was covered up by whoever was responsible, but it's also likely that in deep space, there's no communication with anyone, Mother acted on her own recognizance, based on the company's pre-programmed responses and priorities.
Prometheus is worse to react to while pregnant I should say, because of a certain scene in a medical tube...no spoilers, but it's in the middle of the movie.
"At least he wasn't the first to go" Hell, Parker was the only other competent person on the ship. He and Ripley argue because they're kind of both the heroes. Edit: I love what a savage Jane is, lmao. "I'd take you out, would you take me out?"
The crew had no clue. They was heading back to earth but the she reprogramed its heading when it picked up transmission. They found out when they woke up and Dallas told them. Ash contacted company and told them about lifeform when after he let them aboard ship. Thats when company contacted Ash and told him to bring back lifeform because Ash knew the facehugger layed egg in crewmember. And crew was expendable. Everyone should of been suspicious when Ashe told Dallas mother was calling before she called

The part of Ripley was originally written as a man. Alan Ladd Jr., then President of 20th Century Fox, said "Why can't Ripley be a woman?" And the rest is history.
Nostromo is basically a prime mover like a Mac truck. The truck rig that transports large cargo containers. The routine commercial ore retrieval mission from some mining operation somewhere was interrupted and the crew was woken early. The "company" used the towing craft to follow up a communication it already knew about, and retrieve an organism it already knew about (from the transmission) because it happened to be in the right place at the right time.
Part of the design for geiger's alien and laying the eggs down the throat into the chest was to create a sense of violation also the extending secondary jaw of the alien was to express a certain phallic quality especially when the alien was penetrating it's victim with them.
Okay MASSIVE long time Alien franchise fan here. I first watched this film when I was 10 or 11 in 1980 or 81 when it came on tv. It's in my top 5 horror films of all time (along with Jaws, An American Werewolf in London, The Shining, and The Thing). About why the ship was sent out- These people are basically intergalactic truck drivers. The Nostromo is a towing vessel and the ship was returning to Earth with a haul of mineral ore. However they are diverted from their autopilot course to check out a signal coming from an uncharted planet. Now did the Company know about the signal in advance or was it all a coincidence? Here is the key- while they are repairing the ship on the planet and Ripley is having a discussion with Dallas about Ash... She asks if Dallas had ever shipped out with Ash before. He responds that his (former) Science Officer was replaced with Ash 2 days before they were to make the return trip to Earth. Knowing what we know- that Ash was pre-programmed to protect the Alien lifeform at all costs, it only makes sense that the Company knew "something" was out there and planned the detour of the ship's return to Earth ahead of time on purpose. Did they know it was an Alien specifically? Maybe... But it was clear from Special Order 937 that "anything" encountered was to be brought back under any and all circumstances. About what the Alien was doing with its tail to Lambert after Parker is killed- There is a strong theme of... "violation" to put it mildly throughout the film. Kane gets an Alien tube (referred to as an ovipositor) shoved down his throat. The adult Alien "penetrates" its victims with its inner jaw. Ash's attempt to kill Ripley has some very strong rape imagery. And Lambert's screams sound like there is a lot more happening than her just being murdered. When Ripley shows up to find them dead- Lambert is dangling naked! Really enjoyed your reaction! Just subscribed and looking forward to more!
Mark 8:19. This movie is part of a series of them and is connected to the "Predator" movies too. Also, there are certain funny parts of, "Spaceballs", that you can appreciate more, as well as "Easter Eggs" in, "Ready Player One". 😎👍
Not only did the movie star John Hurt (the war doctor) and Ian Holm (bilbo baggins) it also featured Yaphet Kotto who played the main villain (Dr Kananga) in the James Bond film Live and Let Die.
The crew are basically just truck drivers in space, they were just on another 'haul', the huge refinery behind the Nostromo. The Company gave Mother instructions to take a specific route back to check on that signal, a detour so to speak.
The ship was not specifically sent there to find the Alien. It's more a case of "In case you encounter something bring it back." As for if the company was aware of it or not.... if you just look at the Alien movies themselves it never gets revealed if they knew or not. However the Alien versus Predator movies take place way before this one, so...... it depends on if you take those as part of the franchise or as a completely seperate thing that was just made for fun.
That was a great reaction. Obviously now you just have to watch the Special Edition of the sequel. "Aliens" (1986) Ok so, since you asked, here is my short list of 80s - 90s movies that I feel are a must must watch, if you haven't already. Plus a few other gems. Movies are not in any particular order, but I recommend not to watch all the horror movies back to back if you can help it, please pace yourself. Bodysnatchers (1978) ( there are many remakes/versions) Close Encounters of the Third Kind (1977) Aliens (1986) Predator (1987) Predator II (1990) The Thing (1982) The Abyss (1989) E.T. (1982) Ghostbusters (1984) Ghostbusters II (1989) Back to the Future Trilogy The Fly (1986) The Fly II (1989) The Blob (1988) Nightmare on Elmstreet (1984) Hellraiser (1987) Robocop I (1987) Robocop II (1990) Terminator (1984) Terminator II (1991) Blade Runner (1982) Childs Play I (1988) Childs Play II (1992) Conan the Barbarian (1982) Willow (1988) Total Recall (1990) Kindergarten Cop (1990) True Lies (1994) The Good Son (1993) TMNT (1990) TMNT II (1991) Twister (1996) Demolition Man (1993) Jurassic Park (1993) Jurassic Part: Lost World (1997) Quick and the Dead (1995) Starship troopers (1997) The Cell (2000) Frailty (2001) Dredd (2012) Arrival (2016) As far as iconic 80s horror movies go, these are the top 3 horror movies/sequels I would recommend. Level 1: "Alien & Aliens" = welcome to the darkness. Level 50: "The Thing" = Congrats you survived... your ready now. Level 100: "The Fly & The Fly II" = You've officially seen the worst of it.
Omg I laughed way too hard at the sponsor skit 😂 I also developed claustrophobia after I had my daughter. It’s bizarre because I use to have no problem with closed spaces. Caves freak me out & even standing in line for Indiana Jones at Disneyland almost made me get an anxiety attack since you go underground 😳
First things first. It's damsel. Second things nextly. There are no losers watching this movie. Everybody wins. Third thing againly. The next one, Aliens, is more action and fewer scares, just better ones. Muwahaha!!!!! Finally and most importantly, the only exception to the "No Losers Rule" is, Jane won.
Sad that we're losing the cast of "Alien". The only still living cast members are Sigourney Weaver, Tom Skerritt and Veronica Cartwright. John Hurt, Harry Dean Stanton, Ian Holm and Yaphet Kotto have all passed away within the past five years.
I saw this movie when it came out in '79 (I was 22). I was scared as soon as the movie started. Back then there weren't many movies out at a time like today. The original trailer is on RUclips. It played on TV and everyone wanted to see it.
Mark 23:34. So, you two would avoid being in that scenario if you could, but if you couldn't, then you would be like, "George Costanza", from the series, "Seinfeld", and leave everyone else behind? 🤔 😅😂
In Infinity wars Peter Parker made a reference to this movie ...."a really old movie called Aliens " ( * he meant Alien though ). Then they blew a hole in the side of the space ship so Thanos's henchman would get sucked our of the hole.
It was all the running down a narrow corridor and the strobe light and the sounds of sheer terror. Second scariest movie of the 1970's. The Exorcist was #1 from 1973.
I pestered my dad to take me this on opening night. I was born in 1973. Do the math. He took me. Bad parenting. I was agitated from the opening credits and then LOST MY SHIT at the chest burster scene. I had to be escorted from the cinema by my dad, who didn't see the rest of the movie until it came out on video disc years later. Served him right!
I was 9 in 79. My mom wasn't a horror fan but she let her friend take me to see Alien and When a Stranger Calls double feature. I loved it! Alien has been one of my favorites and Ripley a role model ever since.
@@barbaramcgee8933 that's awesome. I've treated that experience like a anchor in my own life. I have kept thinking back about it every year since then. It's changed from a terror to an ironic touchstone in my current movie taste.
The guy with the alien on his face was in Doctor Who as The War Doctor. And Harry Potter as Olivander....and Hellboy....man, we lost a good one when we lost him. Also, for two who don't care much for horror, you seemed to have some fun on this one. I would recommend putting some feelers out for more titles to check out. Not crazy, gorefest stuff. But light or with a bit of fun. Such as: -Tucker and Dale vs Evil -Army of Darkness -House (movie from the 80s) -House II -Shaun of the Dead
Great Reaction. Riddley Scott said he was going to make the TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE IN SPACE horror movie, with the crew being taken out one at a time, and with nowhere to hide. It knocked it out of the park with this movie.
No the company is Weiland-Yutani. They had already intercepted the beacon transmission so they knew there was something special about the transmission. It just so happened that the Nostromo was passing through the system that this transmission was coming from.
The ''practical'' effects were as practical as it could get. The egg's interior is real pork and bovine intestines, iirc. Ash's talking head is Ian Holm having real milk and joghurt in his mouth. In the bright, hot set lights it became rotten and sour, but the actor had to shoot despite that. So imagine you have to have warm, rotten milk products in your moth for hours... yummm. The initial burst scene had real reactions fromt he crew, who was kept in the dark till the shoot on how it was going to play out. Lambert's scream was the real shocked Mrs. Cartwright.
If you felt claustrophobic watching these narrow corridors of the Nostromo now you must see "Aliens". Then you will see your worst nightmare about claustrophobia come true for real.
I believe you were wondering this, and it may have already been addressed, but while Kane was in distress and they turned him on his back on the table, I believe those were spoons they inserted in his mouth, to keep him from swallowing his tongue. Also, right before Brett’s death, you all did not seem to notice the chains hanging from the ceiling… you might want to re-watch that very brief segment, and pay very close attention….😉
Ya'll were tough for the Manscaped ad. That changed quick. 🤣 Can't wait for the Aliens reaction. Still my favorite movie of all time and I could barely look at the screen the first 5 times lol!
It’s a classic for me. It’s full of suspense and you’re right that a female is the hero. One of the first females to be a hero in a movie. It still holds up as you say. The ship was a mining ship so probably full of ore that might make the explosion huge. Aliens is a must see as well. Good review
I was in high school when this came out. Someone told me it was like “Star Wars” so I rushed to see it at a midnight showing. Huge mistake. It is NOTHING like Star Wars. By the time the thing came out of the egg, my ass had crawled nearly out of my seat and I was watching through my fingers. I told the friend who went with me “I hope that was the worst of it”. We were scared shitless when it was over. Now it’s after 1am and pouring rain. Both the girls who went with me insisted on sitting in the front seat so after I pulled from the curb into the parking lot, with rain pounding on the roof, I looked up in my rear view mirror and decided to look horrified at what I saw. Both the girls screamed and sprinted back to the theater. It took a lot of convincing to get them back in the car.
Keep in mind lore sometimes get built up after the fact. Details are inferred only to be solidified later ORIGINALLY when I saw it in 1979, some "company ship" is just out there, processing resources for needs back on Earth or some unspecified colonies (6 weeks to the frontier ?). Can't speak for the novelization (didn't read it), but that may have more.
***SPOILER FREE ANSWER TO YOUR QUESTION*** In answer to your question about whether or not the company planned to send them to the planet. There is a clue in this movie. The Captain, Dallas, says that at the very last minute the company replaced the regular science officer with Ash. This implies that the company knew of the alien signal-at this stage, we do not know how much the company knew about the Alien, but we know what their orders were....
Oh, you guys did the Director’s Cut. The theatrical didn’t include Lambert slapping Ripley or Ripley finding Dallas and Brett being turned into eggs The underside of the dead facehugger was created with shellfish. I believe it smelled very bad They have not encountered aliens before. At least not that they know of. In retrospect, Ash was obviously protecting the alien when it came out, but it has acid blood too. You don’t want to risk injuring it and spilling that stuff It’s wet there because it’s the cooling duct area The alien has one extra mouth. A pharyngeal jaw 23:56 Yes, that was meant imply what I’m sure you thought it was, though maybe not her butt. Those actually aren’t Lambert’s legs, they’re Brett’s. In his death scene the alien would move it’s tail between his legs and hook its scorpion barb into his back. They cut that out and repurposed some of it for the disturbing implication of Lamberts death. The company knew about the alien transmission and they wanted to get any lifeform that might be there. The Nostromo was sent on a regular cargo mission and their return trip was meant for them to intercept and investigate the transmission. Dallas mentions the regular science officer he worked with was replaced with Ash right before they left. It was a set up from the start MU/TH/UR is the ships’s AI mainframe
They were on a basic freight run when the computer caught a non-human signal. They have a set of basic secret orders just in case a ship discovers anything alien, because there is a lot of potential profit in that. anything a ship's sensors can pick up will in all probability profitable enough to cover the cost of installing these directives. And of course will cover the cost of a lost crew. Even just discovering something seemingly mundane like an alien language might lead to a new coding that other corporations can't break easily. In this case, just the naturally created acid blood and the veins that can contain it has so many possible applications that it blows the mind. Biological tubes and pipes that have some self-repair capabilities have incredible applications. You want a bad guy in this movie? It's the Corporation.
Fun fact: At 14:41 was not acting. The late John Hurt did not tell the other actors that, that was going to happen and the other actors are really panicking.
Jane: "what if they like don't wake her up for 50 years??"
omg how crazy would that be!!?

I wonder if we did a collection if we could bribe Jane to do a whole episode in her Savage voice.
I saw this first run, in a theater. Let me tell you, in 1979, that chest popping scene straight FLOORED you. I'm 6'3", was 20 at the time, thought I wasn't
afraid of anything.....I had to go the restroom for a few minutes to compose myself. It's almost amateurish compared to today's effects but for the time,
it was horrifying.
Mark 27:30. The wardrobe/costume person, went to a lot of effort to come up with, "futuristic underwear", for "Ellen Ripley" to be seen in, only for it to be quickly copied and adapted in Real Life, so now it looks "quaint", as in "not futuristic enough". Now as of 2009, as seen in "Star Trek", they don't even bother any more, to try and be "Futuristic". Just "practical" and/or "basic functionality". Though in their case, it is ironic, because with the original series and "STTNG", some thought underwear functions were made into the uniforms rather than separate. But cast members wearing their actual underwear anyway and being noticed too, had people saying it was still separate. The 2009 movie, brought controversy from some for having people shown in their underwear, for both genders, without realizing that such scenes ended the debate about whether or not underwear was still a thing in "The Future", or at least in the franchise anyway. 🤔
She basically predicted everything in this movie before it happened. People usually aren't able to do this :D
I still remember the original ad for this movie. It started with an egg cracking open followed by an ominous voice saying "In space, nobody can hear you scream." And ALIEN popping in at the top of the screen. It entranced me, but then again I was 4 at the time.
10/10 movie. 10/10 reaction.
12/10 hulkmania impressions.
You know you're working for an evil corporation, when there is 6 human crewmembers plus an android, and the escape pod only has room for 5.
The fully-grown alien in this is totally misunderstood - he's just trying to give everyone a big smoochy kiss. It's not his fault that humans are so darn fragile. :D
I would speculate they are all alienphobic, with an irrational hatred that causes them all to misinterpret its homicidal tendencies, such as the need to kill, when it's really and obviously a cry for help.
Mark 19:10 or so. The extended arms! They just laughed at it as "being cheesy" for looking like a guy in a suit. But upon seeing it now, I belatedly realised why in "Spaceballs", their spoof of it, did an impression of, Al Jolson, singing "Mammy", because he did that with his arms when singing the song. 😅😂
hahhaa, I love how you want to take a break from Dallas being ambushed in a tight space tunnel with the alien. Try enduring the Descent!!!
"That was kinda cheesy"
They call that moment the Alien Jazz-Hands.
They said during the filming of the chest-burster scene, the actors didn't know that was going to happen and that is their real reaction.
This story is often blown out of proportion. In truth, the schedule for the day was to shoot the "chest-burster" scene, but when the actors arrived they were told that they were going to be doing the "b-roll" type shots first (the wide shots of them joking and eating together). Ridley Scott and John Hurt (and maybe 1 or 2 others) had concocted the idea to get "the real reactions" from the other actors by having John fake like he was choking. The reactions of him choking up until the blood is splashed onto his chest are of some/most of the cast thinking their castmate is choking to death. And even after the blood splatter, Ridley continued to film and urged the cast to continue with the scene, most (if not all), unaware that John was never actually choking.
This is the first time I've ever sat through an entire endorsement for any channel. That was 10/10.
It's a mining freighter. It's carrying a load of ore, from a mining colony back to Earth. On the way back, the ship's computer "Mother" picks up the "Quarantine: Do not approach" signal and changes course to do the exact opposite, per The Company's instructions, and collect a specimen. Ash lies and tells everyone that the warning is a distress signal which they are under contract to investigate in case anyone needs assistance.
In the sequel, (Slight spoilers) The company denies all knowledge of anything and doesn't believe her story. It's possible that the whole thing was covered up by whoever was responsible, but it's also likely that in deep space, there's no communication with anyone, Mother acted on her own recognizance, based on the company's pre-programmed responses and priorities.
Jane this would have been the worst movie to react to during your pregnancy lol
How about "Train To Busan," then?
AvP: Requiem?
Prometheus is worse to react to while pregnant I should say, because of a certain scene in a medical tube...no spoilers, but it's in the middle of the movie.
3 years later, Alien Romulus says hi
Jane: "They need the Doctor to come and save them".
Rose/Bad wolf: (to John Hurt/ War Doctor/ Kane) "But you, you ARE the Doctor!"
The first time you watch the first alien movie and no one can reconise olivander from from harry potter
Rip John hurt
It was absolutely hilarious when he "reprised" his chest bursting scene for Mel Brooks in "Spaceballs".
"Not again!"
"At least he wasn't the first to go" Hell, Parker was the only other competent person on the ship. He and Ripley argue because they're kind of both the heroes. Edit: I love what a savage Jane is, lmao. "I'd take you out, would you take me out?"
The crew had no clue. They was heading back to earth but the she reprogramed its heading when it picked up transmission. They found out when they woke up and Dallas told them. Ash contacted company and told them about lifeform when after he let them aboard ship. Thats when company contacted Ash and told him to bring back lifeform because Ash knew the facehugger layed egg in crewmember. And crew was expendable. Everyone should of been suspicious when Ashe told Dallas mother was calling before she called
Jane: starts having anxiety attack
Justin: “it’s fine”
Lmfao love you guys

Pretty much every classic horror movie I could think of 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
The part of Ripley was originally written as a man. Alan Ladd Jr., then President of 20th Century Fox, said "Why can't Ripley be a woman?" And the rest is history.
Nostromo is basically a prime mover like a Mac truck. The truck rig that transports large cargo containers. The routine commercial ore retrieval mission from some mining operation somewhere was interrupted and the crew was woken early. The "company" used the towing craft to follow up a communication it already knew about, and retrieve an organism it already knew about (from the transmission) because it happened to be in the right place at the right time.
The second movie is “Aliens” if you are wondering.
Part of the design for geiger's alien and laying the eggs down the throat into the chest was to create a sense of violation also the extending secondary jaw of the alien was to express a certain phallic quality especially when the alien was penetrating it's victim with them.
Great ad performance! The friend I saw this with in '79 said that it was the first movie that jolted him as much as Jaws.
Okay MASSIVE long time Alien franchise fan here. I first watched this film when I was 10 or 11 in 1980 or 81 when it came on tv. It's in my top 5 horror films of all time (along with Jaws, An American Werewolf in London, The Shining, and The Thing).
About why the ship was sent out- These people are basically intergalactic truck drivers. The Nostromo is a towing vessel and the ship was returning to Earth with a haul of mineral ore. However they are diverted from their autopilot course to check out a signal coming from an uncharted planet. Now did the Company know about the signal in advance or was it all a coincidence?
Here is the key- while they are repairing the ship on the planet and Ripley is having a discussion with Dallas about Ash... She asks if Dallas had ever shipped out with Ash before. He responds that his (former) Science Officer was replaced with Ash 2 days before they were to make the return trip to Earth.
Knowing what we know- that Ash was pre-programmed to protect the Alien lifeform at all costs, it only makes sense that the Company knew "something" was out there and planned the detour of the ship's return to Earth ahead of time on purpose. Did they know it was an Alien specifically? Maybe... But it was clear from Special Order 937 that "anything" encountered was to be brought back under any and all circumstances.
About what the Alien was doing with its tail to Lambert after Parker is killed- There is a strong theme of... "violation" to put it mildly throughout the film. Kane gets an Alien tube (referred to as an ovipositor) shoved down his throat. The adult Alien "penetrates" its victims with its inner jaw. Ash's attempt to kill Ripley has some very strong rape imagery. And Lambert's screams sound like there is a lot more happening than her just being murdered. When Ripley shows up to find them dead- Lambert is dangling naked!
Really enjoyed your reaction! Just subscribed and looking forward to more!
You both won if you enjoyed the movie overall. I recommend that you watch Aliens while this is fresh in your minds.
Mark 17:51. Jones, if he ever pounced on prey, now he knows what the bystanders felt like! 🙀
RIP John Hurt (Kane)
RIP Harry Dean Stanton (Brett)
RIP Ian Holm (Ash)
RIP Yaphett Kotto (Parker)
You're all reunited in spirit.
RIP BOLAJI BADEJO (The Alien)
I think it's about time to react to "ALIENS" !! ;)
Mark 8:19. This movie is part of a series of them and is connected to the "Predator" movies too. Also, there are certain funny parts of, "Spaceballs", that you can appreciate more, as well as "Easter Eggs" in, "Ready Player One". 😎👍
Not only did the movie star John Hurt (the war doctor) and Ian Holm (bilbo baggins) it also featured Yaphet Kotto who played the main villain (Dr Kananga) in the James Bond film Live and Let Die.
27:48 she was making sure it was out of the confined space. Also she was pressurizing the room so the force of the air being sucked out was stronger.
The crew are basically just truck drivers in space, they were just on another 'haul', the huge refinery behind the Nostromo. The Company gave Mother instructions to take a specific route back to check on that signal, a detour so to speak.
"OMG, Justin!! ...Justin... Justin!!"
👀
Lol.... Jane... never let's me down

Watch Predator its sooo cool i think you too gonna love it since u like Alien !!!!
Suggestion for try not to get scared. Session 9 (2001).
I guarantee it will twist your noodles.
The ship was not specifically sent there to find the Alien.
It's more a case of "In case you encounter something bring it back."
As for if the company was aware of it or not.... if you just look at the Alien movies themselves it never gets revealed if they knew or not.
However the Alien versus Predator movies take place way before this one, so...... it depends on if you take those as part of the franchise or as a completely seperate thing that was just made for fun.
That was a great reaction. Obviously now you just have to watch the Special Edition of the sequel. "Aliens" (1986)
Ok so, since you asked, here is my short list of 80s - 90s movies that I feel are a must must watch, if you haven't already. Plus a few other gems.
Movies are not in any particular order, but I recommend not to watch all the horror movies back to back if you can help it, please pace yourself.

As far as iconic 80s horror movies go, these are the top 3 horror movies/sequels I would recommend.
Level 1: "Alien & Aliens" = welcome to the darkness.
Level 50: "The Thing" = Congrats you survived... your ready now.
Level 100: "The Fly & The Fly II" = You've officially seen the worst of it.
Mark 20:36. Paper magazines still exist in that Future, for the sake of that scene! Plus the room decor. 🤔😅😂
Lmao the sponsor! 😂
LET'S GO BROTHER
Lol, he actually sounds like arnold schwazenegger.
Just you wait till they see terminator...
Omg I laughed way too hard at the sponsor skit 😂
I also developed claustrophobia after I had my daughter. It’s bizarre because I use to have no problem with closed spaces. Caves freak me out & even standing in line for Indiana Jones at Disneyland almost made me get an anxiety attack since you go underground 😳
First things first. It's damsel. Second things nextly. There are no losers watching this movie. Everybody wins.
Third thing againly. The next one, Aliens, is more action and fewer scares, just better ones. Muwahaha!!!!!
Finally and most importantly, the only exception to the "No Losers Rule" is, Jane won.
Sigourney Weaver, Sci-fi hero.
ROBOCOP 1987 would be awesome!! and PREDATOR 1987
Sad that we're losing the cast of "Alien". The only still living cast members are Sigourney Weaver, Tom Skerritt and Veronica Cartwright. John Hurt, Harry Dean Stanton, Ian Holm and Yaphet Kotto have all passed away within the past five years.
Tom Skerritt will be 88 years old this month. Still a gorgeous man.
I saw this movie when it came out in '79 (I was 22). I was scared as soon as the movie started. Back then there weren't many movies out at a time like today. The original trailer is on RUclips. It played on TV and everyone wanted to see it.
Mark 23:34. So, you two would avoid being in that scenario if you could, but if you couldn't, then you would be like, "George Costanza", from the series, "Seinfeld", and leave everyone else behind? 🤔 😅😂
In Infinity wars Peter Parker made a reference to this movie ...."a really old movie called Aliens " ( * he meant Alien though ). Then they blew a hole in the side of the space ship so Thanos's henchman would get sucked our of the hole.
Have you seen Aliens?
@@rainydaydreamawy yes. why?
It was all the running down a narrow corridor and the strobe light and the sounds of sheer terror. Second scariest movie of the 1970's. The Exorcist was #1 from 1973.
I pestered my dad to take me this on opening night. I was born in 1973. Do the math. He took me. Bad parenting. I was agitated from the opening credits and then LOST MY SHIT at the chest burster scene. I had to be escorted from the cinema by my dad, who didn't see the rest of the movie until it came out on video disc years later. Served him right!
I was 9 in 79. My mom wasn't a horror fan but she let her friend take me to see Alien and When a Stranger Calls double feature. I loved it! Alien has been one of my favorites and Ripley a role model ever since.
@@barbaramcgee8933 that's awesome. I've treated that experience like a anchor in my own life. I have kept thinking back about it every year since then. It's changed from a terror to an ironic touchstone in my current movie taste.
Jane, I know you and JV are solid, but I would totally marry you for that Macho Man impression.
The robot guy is in fact Ian Holm
who also played Bilbo Baggins.
He passed away in 2020.
The guy with the alien on his face was in Doctor Who as The War Doctor. And Harry Potter as Olivander....and Hellboy....man, we lost a good one when we lost him.
Also, for two who don't care much for horror, you seemed to have some fun on this one. I would recommend putting some feelers out for more titles to check out. Not crazy, gorefest stuff. But light or with a bit of fun. Such as:
-Tucker and Dale vs Evil
-Army of Darkness
-House (movie from the 80s)
-House II
-Shaun of the Dead
Great Reaction. Riddley Scott said he was going to make the TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE IN SPACE horror movie, with the crew being taken out one at a time, and with nowhere to hide. It knocked it out of the park with this movie.
No the company is Weiland-Yutani. They had already intercepted the beacon transmission so they knew there was something special about the transmission. It just so happened that the Nostromo was passing through the system that this transmission was coming from.
That sponsor message was the best thing ever. Hulk Hogan and Macho Man Randy Savage would be proud.
omg "ripley..... believe it or not" lmao 😂🤣
The ''practical'' effects were as practical as it could get. The egg's interior is real pork and bovine intestines, iirc.
Ash's talking head is Ian Holm having real milk and joghurt in his mouth. In the bright, hot set lights it became rotten and sour, but the actor had to shoot despite that. So imagine you have to have warm, rotten milk products in your moth for hours... yummm.
The initial burst scene had real reactions fromt he crew, who was kept in the dark till the shoot on how it was going to play out. Lambert's scream was the real shocked Mrs. Cartwright.
If you felt claustrophobic watching these narrow corridors of the Nostromo now you must see "Aliens". Then you will see your worst nightmare about claustrophobia come true for real.
I believe you were wondering this, and it may have already been addressed, but while Kane was in distress and they turned him on his back on the table, I believe those were spoons they inserted in his mouth, to keep him from swallowing his tongue. Also, right before Brett’s death, you all did not seem to notice the chains hanging from the ceiling… you might want to re-watch that very brief segment, and pay very close attention….😉
Love the ads effort!
So fun
I just watched your Naked Gun video, and I really enjoyed it... so I figured I'd go for some contrast and watch this one next.
I like how Jane is pointing at her husband while the alien burst out the guys chest lol
Ya'll were tough for the Manscaped ad. That changed quick. 🤣
Can't wait for the Aliens reaction. Still my favorite movie of all time and I could barely look at the screen the first 5 times lol!
It’s a classic for me. It’s full of suspense and you’re right that a female is the hero. One of the first females to be a hero in a movie. It still holds up as you say. The ship was a mining ship so probably full of ore that might make the explosion huge. Aliens is a must see as well. Good review
I was in high school when this came out. Someone told me it was like “Star Wars” so I rushed to see it at a midnight showing. Huge mistake. It is NOTHING like Star Wars. By the time the thing came out of the egg, my ass had crawled nearly out of my seat and I was watching through my fingers. I told the friend who went with me “I hope that was the worst of it”. We were scared shitless when it was over. Now it’s after 1am and pouring rain. Both the girls who went with me insisted on sitting in the front seat so after I pulled from the curb into the parking lot, with rain pounding on the roof, I looked up in my rear view mirror and decided to look horrified at what I saw. Both the girls screamed and sprinted back to the theater. It took a lot of convincing to get them back in the car.
Jane trying not to gag is making me cry laughing
Don't forget to watch the "extented/director's cut" for "ALIENS" ^^
The Set was one of the stars of the show. It felt like a real lived in place.
Love the commercial :)
Ok, being an 80's kid, that opening ad was lit af.
Answer to "why is it wet there?" Its condensation from the coolant tanks.
Won't spoil it..but they explain why they was at the planet & what they do on that planet in Aliens the 2nd movie
Keep in mind lore sometimes get built up after the fact. Details are inferred only to be solidified later ORIGINALLY when I saw it in 1979, some "company ship" is just out there, processing resources for needs back on Earth or some unspecified colonies (6 weeks to the frontier ?). Can't speak for the novelization (didn't read it), but that may have more.
***SPOILER FREE ANSWER TO YOUR QUESTION***
In answer to your question about whether or not the company planned to send them to the planet. There is a clue in this movie. The Captain, Dallas, says that at the very last minute the company replaced the regular science officer with Ash. This implies that the company knew of the alien signal-at this stage, we do not know how much the company knew about the Alien, but we know what their orders were....
Lmao 🤣😆 "Yeah Brother!!!". 💪💪💪✊🤜🤛
"Damsel in distress" LOL, she wins
Lmao!!! Great massage ad guys! I loved it!
Jane was on the money. Predicting everything.
Oh, you guys did the Director’s Cut. The theatrical didn’t include Lambert slapping Ripley or Ripley finding Dallas and Brett being turned into eggs
The underside of the dead facehugger was created with shellfish. I believe it smelled very bad
They have not encountered aliens before. At least not that they know of.
In retrospect, Ash was obviously protecting the alien when it came out, but it has acid blood too. You don’t want to risk injuring it and spilling that stuff
It’s wet there because it’s the cooling duct area
The alien has one extra mouth. A pharyngeal jaw
23:56 Yes, that was meant imply what I’m sure you thought it was, though maybe not her butt. Those actually aren’t Lambert’s legs, they’re Brett’s. In his death scene the alien would move it’s tail between his legs and hook its scorpion barb into his back. They cut that out and repurposed some of it for the disturbing implication of Lamberts death.
The company knew about the alien transmission and they wanted to get any lifeform that might be there. The Nostromo was sent on a regular cargo mission and their return trip was meant for them to intercept and investigate the transmission. Dallas mentions the regular science officer he worked with was replaced with Ash right before they left. It was a set up from the start
MU/TH/UR is the ships’s AI mainframe
mary cherry's reaction was better saying how Ash's Alien is his family and yells RUNNN!!!
They were on a basic freight run when the computer caught a non-human signal.
They have a set of basic secret orders just in case a ship discovers anything alien, because there is a lot of potential profit in that. anything a ship's sensors can pick up will in all probability profitable enough to cover the cost of installing these directives. And of course will cover the cost of a lost crew. Even just discovering something seemingly mundane like an alien language might lead to a new coding that other corporations can't break easily.
In this case, just the naturally created acid blood and the veins that can contain it has so many possible applications that it blows the mind. Biological tubes and pipes that have some self-repair capabilities have incredible applications.
You want a bad guy in this movie? It's the Corporation.
From 14:48 onwards; now, that's a REACTION!
LMAO!!! your intro was awesome!!!
Fun fact: At 14:41 was not acting.
The late John Hurt did not tell the other actors that, that was going to happen and the other actors are really panicking.
YESSHHHH! I was wondering if y'all would ever get to Alien. Only just started your reaction but this'll be fun!
Definitely gotta watch the sequel Aliens next, just as legendary of a movie as this first one. Directed by James Cameron
I felt like I was at wrestlemania during that ad
