Ian Holm was incredible in Alien especially the subtly of his manipulation of the crew / false reassurances and how he successfully delays the crew from uncovering the Company's real agenda. https://twitter.com/edgarwright/status/1273951028589797376

RIP Ian Holmes He didn't know half of you half as well as he would have liked; and he liked less than half of you half as well as you deserved.

Been thinking about Aliens lately, and had the audiobook pop up on my Youtube feed. Really enjoyable so far, and it's fun to get some new perspectives on the characters and events. The author really builds up the "Ultimate Badasses" angle on the Marines, so I'm looking forward to listening to poo poo Get Real in the atmosphere processor...

If the audiobook is the novelization, the good news is it’s narrated by William Hope (aka Gorman), the bad news is the novelization omits all of the swearing that was present in the script and movie. Apparently this was done by the editor after Alan Dean Foster had written and submitted it, and he was pretty pissed about it.

They've only just made it to Acheron, so the REAL colorful dialogue is yet to come, but there was definitely a tasteful "gently caress you, man" during the awesome "anytime, anywhere" exchange.

There was a brief moment in history when well written strong female leads were a thing. That nightmare is long over.

Ripley's attitudes towards artificial persons were outdated and offensive

The illegal alien line may be on that list. That's a pretty hot topic.

Has anyone ever heard of the Deathlands series? They're pulpy post apocalyptic action adventure books that were turned into audiobooks that I used to listen to when driving a lot for my old job. I

Nah this is just the boiler plate default synopsis for all movies until someone writes a more detailed on.

It's crazy how much the profanity adds to that script and how jarring it seems when it's absent. I can't believe any editor would ever be happy with "Get away from her, you!". Hudson's death scene also loses all of it's impact, and his story also goes from being somewhat of a redemption arc to just another random casualty. I wonder how much of his freak-out was scripted and how much was Bill Paxon just being an awesome actor and hamming it up?

The Zombie Guy posted:Alien is the better horror movie. Alien3 is an OK film with flaws that struggles with the burden of trying to live up to its predecessors, and David Fincher and the cast and crew that worked on it deserve massive respect for being able to complete it in spite of the ridiculous circumstances they had to work in.
