edogawa rando posted:Yeah that sounds about right. As far as I'm concerned, the canon films ended at 3, and the rest are like What If? and Elseworld stories you get in comics being adapted. Just a reminder that Aliens: Labyrinth is the best Aliens comic and absolutely should be adapted into a movie. I would pay good money to get a copy into Neill Blomkamp’s hands and get him to make that as his Aliens movie, he’d knock it out of the park.

Me years ago: A marine apc driver, I get killed when an alien crawls in through an open hatch and slaughters me. Me now: I'm sitting at a computer terminal goofing off at work; an alien drops from the ceiling and kills me.

I'd be a colonial marine killed by my fellow marine when they blast me with a flamethrower as they're being carried away by a xenomorph.

Frost? I looked it up and this list of deaths 'in order' is weird. Maybe it's drawing information from the screenplay or novelization or simply making assumptions about the order of the colonists' deaths, and a few of them are straight-up wrong - the acid blood that gets Drake isn't from the Queen alien, is it? And all of the off-screen deaths you could reasonably argue are actually cocoonings. If we take the director's cut as canon we know this at least happens to Burke.

I'm the colonist that gets taken away. At the hive, there's a huge argument between the drones, as they look in my direction and point at me like they're making a point. At the end of it, they bring me back exactly to where they took me from.

Two pods open. Each facehugger starts moving slower and slower as they approach me. They have no eyes, but still exchange awkward glances.

A facehugger starts crawling toward me, hesitates, then corrects course toward a half open egg. Half a dozen hatchmates shift to make room. I now know the Alien for "Thanks", "Don't mention it", and "Yeesh".

Probably thread semi-relevant to point out that the long overdue HD version of The Abyss is coming out, and the movie is hitting US cinemas for one day only on December 6th.

One thing about The Abyss that blows my mind is that the liquid oxygen poo poo is sort of real. That was the most impactful scene on me when I was younger. gently caress that poo poo.

Not just sort of real, the bit where they demo it on the rat, they’re actually submerging the rat in real oxygenated liquid and it’s actually breathing it. That’s right, that bit isn’t fake. Hooray animal cruelty!

Science-diagrams-that-look-like-shitposts:  Mammalian enteral ventilation ameliorates respiratory failure You can stick a tube up rats/pigs/?humans? butts into their intestines, pump in oxygenated fluorocarbon fluids, let the fluid run back out down the high-surface area+good at absorption intestinal walls, and get significant improvements in blood oxygen. This is interesting because doing that is less invasive than intubating with a mechanical lung ventilator, and wouldn't rely on functioning lung tissue. Intestines are also a better target for oxygenated fluids than lungs since they're already set up for liquid exposure and continuous flow. Fluids in lungs have problems with damaging alveoli since they're denser/more viscous, and also how you get all of it back out when ending ventalation.

Yeah, I said "sort of" because it isn't used on humans like they do in the movie. I was aware of the poor rat. I'm sure that wasn't very fun for him.  I think I watched a documentary or at least a short video on the fluid and the poo poo is amazing. But humans can't really use it because it takes a whole lot more energy to move a fluid in and out of your lungs than a gas.

I forget who told that story about seeing the Abyss with their cynical dad and at the part where Ed Harris' wedding ring stops the door from shutting he leaned over and dryly said "do ya get it?"
