I’ve been meaning to ask, did everyone get their copy of Labyrinth? If so, what did you think of it?

It was great. Really good animation, and the high-detail stills at the beginning of each issue are especially fantastic. I definitely remember reading this as a kid. The diseased alien hive stuff is really unsettling. The way the main character (Crespi?) Is drawn, he really reminds me of some actor but I can't put my finger on who.

I remember it being decent but I was drunk when I read it. I'll have to read it again.

i like aliem. now we've got alien vs predator

its weird how "aliens vs predator" and its tagline have kind of entered the general vernacular as a touchstone for "dilemma where either option is catastrophic" but the actual alien vs predator scenario theres a obvious choice to root for Hmmm do i want the facerape body horror monsters who would kill every living thing on earth if they got loose to win? or the honor-bound trophy hunters who stop by every now and then to kill a dozen or so macho gunhavers? hmm...

What does it add? The writing is just so goddamn lazy... Ripley seems way different for no reason.

Ghostnuke posted:What does it add? The writing is just so goddamn lazy... Well I mean, she just woke up to all of her friends being dead and she's trapped on a prison planet with an Alien running around and she's got no weapons. The assembly cut adds in character bits for most of the generic nameless bald guys, including a subplot where they literally successfully capture the Alien and one of the psychotic prisoners lets it go free because he's a crazy person. It also has an alternate opening (which I don't prefer) and an alternate ending (which I prefer parts of), the Alien comes out of a different host (an ox instead of a dog), and a bunch of other little things.

Resurrection is a goddamn stain on the franchise. Just find like, a supercut of all the scenes Brad Dourif is in and just watch that instead.

The human alien hybrid got a raw deal in Resurrection. Dude didn’t ask to be born, and was dealt a bad hand.

Kuato posted:The human alien hybrid got a raw deal in Resurrection. Dude didn’t ask to be born, and was dealt a bad hand. same Actually now that you mention it, some of those scenes between the hybrid and Ripley are pretty hard to watch, and not because it's a horrifying grotesque abomination, because some of the 'emoting' was done well. ... Also because it's a horrifying grotesque abomination. And the scene with all the failed hybrids is pretty on-the-mark as far as franchise body horror goes. OK, Resurrection was alright. I'll leave the room for some of that atrocious CG though. Even 3's graphics were more tasteful than that poo poo.

Yeah, Resurrection was genuinely horrifying. Though I haven't seen it since it came out... over twenty years ago?!

Aliens 4 is Alien vs Firefly It's like they watched Aliens for character direction but stopped taking notes after Hudson says "Sharp sticks".

I heard there's a bit with a powerloader that people like, let's do that but instead of a powerloader it's a wheelchair and instead of Ripley it's the comic relief dwarf and instead of fighting a giant alien at the climax of the film it's several minutes of assembling a gun from wheelchair parts. Also everyone is the comic relief. Splicer fucked around with this message at 11:30 on May 5, 2019 |

"OK so there's a bit where they're underground and they've had their guns taken away but someone smuggled in some ammo and they shoot the walls and-" "...and the bullets ricochet all over the place and kill all the aliens I love it!"

"Buddy doesn't see it but there's an alien behind him, and it does the head-biting thing to him... BUT we want to have like a comedic relief aspect to this scene because the character is kind of a dunderhead so he's got time to use his hand to examine the gaping wound in the back of his skull before he makes a silly face and expires, falling comedically into the abyss."
