I'm a very big fan of his "Look into my eye" delivery.

Wild T posted:All Matthews' laugh is impossible not to like. Also the way he rolls his cigar from one side to the other and says "be my guest!" Al Matthews is a badass and I hate that I haven't seen him in other stuff. In the the superior firepower docu he actively takes charge when a set takes fire and orders the dumbass actors around. I've been thinking too much about aliens lately, def have to fire it up again and watch that docu again. In the good old days of vhs it was my go to action flick to rent in stead of the typical van damme stuff. The clerk would invariably roll his eyes when I took it out to show friends. I actually appreciate alien more now, but that's only because I don't know it 70% by heart like aliens.

 Literally the second he wakes up, he chomps a cigar. He's not even sitting up yet.

I love Tom Skerritt's performance, he fits so perfectly in the grimy, lived-in universe they create.

I also like how Dallas gets scared before his demise. He's not some stoic leader; he's just like the others except he's in charge.

I need to figure out how to install Mame again so I can play the excellent Capcom AvP beat-em-up. Why is this not available on every console? You can suplex aliens and win the game by causing an explosion that destroys roughly a third of North America.

I'm trying to calibrate my ratings for "people who saw 'Alien' and 'Aliens' and liked them, but might not be hardcore lunatic fans" but I might still be a little biased. If you think that's the case, knock a star off of each of my ratings I guess. I really appreciate this post. Reading Labyrinth right now and it’s as entertaining as it is hosed up!

In particular I like Apone's lines when they're gearing up right before the ready line. You can't see him for most of it but you can hear him very calmly, very cooly, like a father pep taking his son before the big game, inform everyone that they are going to go kick rear end. We are go "Alright sweethearts, we're a team and there's nothing to worry about. We come here, and we gonna conquer, and we gonna get some. Is that understood? That's what we're gonna do sweethearts. We are going to go and get some." One thing I never noticed. Hudson has great big googly eyes on the back of his right shoulder pad.

I'm guessing that photo was taken during or immediately after the filming of the facehugger scene.

Not been here for a hot minute, mainly because I'm a dunce who gets easily distracted by pretty colours and doesn't know/forgets how to scroll down. The important news however is that Aliens is still the high bar when it comes to action-horror. We're 34 years on and it still blows audiences the gently caress away. gently caress it, we could wait 134 years before someone matches Aliens. The wait just makes it even better. This warms me inside
