      That's one of the great things about being old (er). Old enough to see this when it first came out. Old enough to see Star Wars when it first came out. Somehow the way the stories have subsequently developed takes away from the groundbreaking nature of the originals. It was the kind of experience in the cinema that can't be repeated. They can ramp up effects now as much as they like - but they'll never capture anything like the impact of those films in the late seventies.

      @@jamesupton4996 Totally. I was 7 when Star Wars came out, 9 when alien came out. Saw them both in the cinema, when they debuted. Unforgettable experiences, no one had seen anything like them. Alien in particular looks like it was made yesterday, and I think that's largely because it wound up being such a massively influential movie that the look and feel has been borrowed by so movies in the decades since it came out. What I wouldn't give to be able to go back to my childhood and experience these movies for the first time again!

    The abort didn’t work in the end because Ripley forgot to reengage the safety interlocks (those two big levers) prior to starting the abort procedure. She didn’t read the abort instructions written on the panel cover correctly, which clearly states under “scuttle procedure” to “re-engage safety interlocks prior to abort code input”. The movie deserves recognition for that level of detail.

(2) [Hudson] "Why don't you put HER in charge?!" ...

      samanli2014 Too her credit, she risked encountering the Alien in order to save Jones. She went back for him. And she let Jones enter hypersleep in her pod. I always thought it was weird the Alien just looked at Jones after Ripley had dropped him. Yet it did not attack Jonesy. But yes, I still felt bad for the cat the way she was throwing his crate around.

      I imagine the Alien obviously looked at Jonesy with curiousy because it did not know what type of creature Jonesy was. But as soon as it realized that Jonesy was not a threat to it, it decided not to waste time on it and to instead keep hunting for Ripley. I remember when I first saw this movie though, I thought that the Alien had somehow managed to squeeze/ hide itself in the crate in order to get onto the ship with Ripley, as it recognized that she was a bigger threat to it. When the cat was revealed to be in the crate i imagined that the Alien had either somehow forced itself inside the cat or else somehow planted a new chestburster alien inside the cat. When neither of those things happened I let myself relax a little. And then the hand leapt out at Ripley. God I love this movie.

Nobody knew how Xenomorphs worked exactly during this first movie, for all we knew it could have laid it's own egg in the escape pod and it would pan over to it silently after Ripley sealed herself in the cryosleep unit. Such a masterpiece of thriller horror.

      It actually kind of makes sense if you want to gain as much separation distance as quickly as possible - thrusting in the exact opposite direction to the original course means the Nostromo will be rapidly heading away from you under its own existing momentum, whereas if the shuttle launched forwards it would still have the Nostromo bearing down on it from behind at almost the same velocity, so you'd be much much closer when it blew.

      Because it _is_ smart. Ash put it best right before he was permanently unplugged: it's a survivor. The species itself is intelligent to begin with, but depending on the intelligence of its host species (in this case a human), it can become _incredibly_ cunning. It was able to outsmart and pick off the crew one by one, seemingly even enjoying it in some instances (it almost looked as though it took its time with Lambert, as if it were basking in her terror), as though it takes on both the intelligence of its host species as well as the more aggressive, negative traits -- in this case, sadism. It's also able to read the environment it's in; it sensed that Ripley had set the ship to self-destruct and that she was going to escape in the shuttle, so it crawled into the wall panel where it would be well camouflaged in an effort to both survive and take out (or perhaps even 'eggmorph') its final target.

    • @SoldierOfFate
      @SoldierOfFate Год назад

      @@LanceVanceDance84 Its sadism and enjoyment of others' terror of its presence can also be further explained by the fact that it knows its victims have no ways of killing it. Therefore, it relished its kills and did so slowly, because it is aware that the crew do not have the means to fight back (if Alien: Isolation is anything to go by, the Nostromo's flamethrowers would've only pissed it off even more).
      In Aliens, once the critters knew the Marines were actually dangerous and posed a threat, they immediately switched to a far more aggressive approach - swift kills and attacking in large numbers. James Cameron justified this in the sequel by comparing the Alien to an armed criminal - a single one is dangerous against a small group unprepared individuals, but the threat is diminished if it's up against 15 police officers. Now add in 200 of them, and suddenly the cops are the ones in danger.
      But overall, great in-depth analysis.

    • @DreamyWoIf
      @DreamyWoIf 9 месяцев назад

      The Alien very likely had no clue that it was an escape vehicle. Even though commenters here point to its intelligence, the Alien knowing that Ripley set the place to be destroyed and this one area is the only way to safety is far-fetched. It might as well try to start the shuttle itself in that case.
      Coincidence is just more probable, but if we're being honest, Ridley Scott felt that ending the movie with the ship exploding wasn't good enough. Since the Alien was to have a short lifespan and it had already been dying at that point, Scott said that it just wanted to find a quiet place to die. That's why it didn't immediately attack Ripley when she discovered it.

    Ripley has time to take one last look at the doomed Nostromo, before shielding her eyes from the blast.

    One of sci fi horror’s most intense scenes ever. Evacuating a spaceship that’s about to self destruct, in a short time, with a hostile alien on board! Nostalgia! 😱☠️👽

      Maybe to prevent Pirates, yes, Pirates in space, from stealing anything. There's always the possibility.

    I really need to know. How the hell did the Nostromo explode 3 times, becoming bigger than the first? Is it because it explode each tank the ship carries?

      First one was the tug itself. Second one was the refinery. As for the last one, I'm not sure, but the novel also mentions 3 explosions.

    Eli Roth's History of Horror
    Season 2, Episode 2 - Monsters
    Bill Hader participated in this episode and best described the end scene. "Just when the audience and Ripley believe the coast is clear, the final reveal happens and it's the scariest moment in horror cinema history. Imagine getting in your car and realizing there a huge python in the backseat right after you buckled in. And it's starting to unravel and you are stuck in this small space with a monster." That how Alien felt to him haha great perspective.

      Relative velocity. It's the same effect that allowed a block of foam to blow a hole in Columbia's wing.
      The Nostromo and refinery were doing a tad better than Warp Three. All Ripley has to do is get out of the warp bubble and her ship goes sublight while the Nostromo trucks on at warp.
