  • In this video Kacee is watching Alien (1979) For The First Time! We are currently making our way through most of the Predator and Alien Franchises to work our way up to Alien vs. Predator! Halfway home, the crew of the commercial spacecraft Nostromo is roused from cryo-sleep to investigate a distress signal from an extraterrestrial ship in the depths of space. When the crew comes across a nest of eggs within the alien ship, the panic starts. One of the crew members is attached to by an entity that bursts from an egg and puts him in a coma.

      Yes it was an experience then, dark huge theater with the film shown in 70 mm Dolby on a collosal screen about 3 or 4 stories high with a packed house of moviegoers.
      I was 14 then and wound up seeing it about 6 times within a few months to a year.
      It was terrifying, unique and creepy to the enth degree, a horror film more than a sci-fi film. A true cinema classic. Ridley Scott is brilliant and hires the best teams around him. And the acting all around was just top tier. From Ash to Parker to Dallas to Ripley and etc., it was just real in every sense.
      This film is a cinema classic.

    About bringing cats to a space:
    From the dawn of time when travelers where making long voyages (sea, land) they took the pets to give them company, make them not go crazy, make them laugh and release stress.
    Thats why dogs were introduce for voyages to North/South pole exploring (not just for the slide riding)

      @Artanis99 Год назад +30

      One more reason for ships cat was the pest control. It was extremely important for wooden ships (as mice and rats could literally eat trough the hull and cause flooding and chew ropes and canvas which could endanger rigging) and even in the age of metal ships rodents coud cause a fire (by chewing on cables) and spoil food supply. Only in 1975 did RN officialy ban cats and all pets from its ships.

    This is my all time favorite horror movie. There are very few classic movie reactions I look forward to as much as Alien. Especially from people who have absolutely no idea what the Xenomorph’s are or what they can do. I saw it when I was WAY too young at age 11. The Xenomorph was literally the embodiment of my nightmares throughout my childhood.
    Fun/Scary Fact: The Xenomorph is actually based on a real life insect, the Tarantula Hawk which is a wasp from the southwest United States. It reproduces by hunting tarantulas, paralyzing them with it’s stinger, dragging them into the spiders hollow, laying an egg on the spiders belly, then the egg hatches and the larvae devours the spider from the inside out.

      The Xenomorphs are iconic, but they're just giant bugs with acid blood. The most horrifying alien entity is the Thing. Because it doesn't need to chase you down, stalk you in the dark, or any of that other monster tropey stuff. All it has to do is imitate a cute fluffy kitten or puppy and brush up against you. Or just some random person and bump into you in a store, on the sidewalk, etc. Or some little kid coughing or sneezing near you. One single cell is all it needs to take over your body. And nothing biological is immune.

    Waaaait, wait, wait, wait, you've got to see Predator 2! It started the *whole* Aliens vs Predator franchise! Its significance as far as the lore of the Predators being galaxy faring hunters, and hunting xenomorphs can not be understated. Imagine for a moment when the original Predator came out; at that point, the audience could only assume that the Predator aliens had *only* been hunting on Earth. But in Predator 2 it officially *expands* the scope of their tradition. Idm if y'all skip making a reaction of watching it, but certainly off screen, to give context as to how the AvP franchise began.

    There are some factors of the movie that could only be experienced when it came out. The actor of the first guy who died was a big name action star at the time, and all the other actors were recognizable names as well, except Sigourney Weaver. She was completely unknown at the time. So not only was that first guy getting killed off so early something nobody saw coming, neither was Ripley being the only survivor.
    On top of that, we praise her for being badass and smart right away now, because we know she’s the star now. But her actions in the beginning, trying to keep them quarantined, intentionally come across as heartless. They’re meant to get the audience against Ripley for callously leaving her crewmates to die and going by the book for her own self-preservation. Dialogue from her soon afterward reinforces this. We don’t get that sensation anymore, because even new viewers probably know who Sigourney Weaver is and know she’s the hero of Alien, or at least would have no inkling that she’s the least recognizable actor in the cast at the time the movie came out.
    Even right down to the scene where the xenomorph makes its last two kills, the movie is weaponizing tropes to make us not suspect that Ripley will be the sole survivor. The other woman on the crew is set up as that right up until her death scene. She in a team with the big, strong guy with a weapon, while Ripley goes back for the cat. Every victim so far has been someone who’s caught alone by the xenomorph, including one who went for the cat earlier, usually in dark places with plenty of hiding spots. Ripley is set up to die in that scene. But instead, the xenomorph abandons the pattern we’ve gotten used to, and makes its last killings of the movie in full view, against the group, not the individual, while they’re armed. It completely turns itself on its head at that point.
    This movie is really good.

    You were talking about the beginning of sci-fi movies, actually, this movie, "Alien" took very close inspiration from a 1950s alien movie called, "It, the Terror from Beyond Space." They did not have much in the special effects department back then, but the basic plot is the same.
    Yes, you are not supposed to use a spoon, or anything else for that matter, to stick in a person's mouth during a seizure. When I taught CPR, the only thing you are supposed to do is place a soft object under their head, move objects away from them, and call 911, having the AED and first aid kit on hand in case they are needed. Trying to keep the victim from biting their own tongue can lead to you getting bitten or greater injury to the victim of the seizure.

    Alien...a master class in building tension and mystery. It's the concept of don't go in the house pushed to the limit mixed with the darkest side of sci-fi. Except for the computer aspect of the movie, it aged like fine wine, the model used and painted glasses in the cave of the ship giving a more realistic feel to everything on screen. H.R Giger is a mad genius with his creation of the Alien monster, a model of touching the inner human fear in his design ! It's a good candidate for top 5 best horror movie/sci-fi of all time !

    In the past, at the time of sailing ships, used to explore the unknown world, they would bring a cat along to control the vermin. At the time, it was rats. Jones symbolizes the advancement of travel, as well as the danger, with humans staying unchanged. Also, when people died on board, they would do an "ocean burial" and throw them into the sea.

  • @randalthor741

    Alien came out just 2 years after Star Wars, so yeah it's perfectly fine to compare that opening scene of the underside of the Nostromo with the opening scene of Star Wars showing the underside of a Star Destroyer. The scene in Alien is pretty clearly inspired by the scene in Star Wars. Aside from that, and the fact that everything has a lived-in & used feeling rather than being squeaky clean like in almost all other sci fi movies/shows at the time, the two movies don't really have a lot in common.
    Also, IMO you should really watch Predator 2. There are some movies in the Alien and Predator franchises that can (and probably should) be skipped, but I don't think Predator 2 is one of them. The first 2 movies in each franchise are good and really give you a feel for what the predators and xenomorphs are all about.

      Star Wars also showed there was an audience for well made, big budget science fiction movies. Prior to A New Hope, there hadn't been very many, and the most recent one that had been spectacularly successful was 2001: A Space Odyssey, which came out all the way back in 1968.

    Prometheus came out in 2012. And the derelict spaceship seen here in Alien & in Prometheus are more or less identical, of the same design & made by the same alien race but it's not the exact same ship. The Alien fandom is still waiting for exact connections between the prequel alien films & the original & it seems most unlikely that we will ever get any answers.

  • @JustWasted3HoursHere
    @JustWasted3HoursHere Год назад +3

    Ripley went back to disable the self destruct because the alien was blocking the way to the escape ship (because of his fascination with Jones the cat). After attempting to disable it, the alien was no longer there (because he had stowed away on the escape ship!) so she could board the ship and be on her way. The ONE thing I would nitpick about this movie is that when the Nostromo blows up - THREE TIMES - it was just a tad overboard. But still a genuine 5 star movie! In the theater, when she blows up the Nostromo and then the credits DON'T start rolling, everyone was like, "Say what?" and we knew something was up. What that 'something' was turned out to be awesome.

She was good person who cared about her crew. She wanted to get everyone home alive, and you can see Ripley was truly traumatize by not only alien but loss of her crewmates. Sigourney did amazing job. This is a good strong female character. She wasn't a flawless character, but a woman trying to right thing with everything going against her.

    Whoever designed and built the self destruct mechanism for this movie should have won an award.

I just love it, and of course the whole escape sequence is adrenaline pumping.
