I theorize the reason Ash tried to kill Ripley with a rolled up magazine was because Synthetics aren't supposed to be programmed for violence. He has no idea how to "kill" a human since it's not in his programming. The best he can do is emulate what he saw the Facehugger do. It's similar how in Aliens when Bishop is offered a handgun. He just inspects it for half a second and passes it back, as if to say "my programming doesn't let me even understand how to use this."

@gm-le6fy 2 years ago

Most people underestimate what a god sent Isolation was for the franchise.

@glenndeH 2 years ago

Honestly Alien 3 makes so much more sense when you know one of the scripts had it as a monastery instead of a prison. The candles, the celibacy, the lack of firearms, all of it just makes more sense if you change all the characters into monks, but that's not sooper dooper cool space trucker stuff so now they're all terrible people haha

@squigglykinkle805 1 year ago

Man, does anyone think about how the first 3 movies are basically a month of ripleys life? Imagine for a week straight everytime you wake up its to fight aliens. That would suck

@drdeadred851 1 year ago

"Have you ever been mistaken for a man?" "No, have you?" Never fails to get a laugh out of me, best comeback ever.

@RCCRAWL-q7g 2 years ago

Bro. Pause on the ultrasound picture. You can totally see a queens crest on its head. My cousin showed me that when we were kids. It took him 3000 pauses to get an unglitched pause screen on the trusty vhs player. He never gave up and proved it's a queen.

@hubsternova 2 years ago

In Aliens when Ripley tries to leave the Queens chamber with Newt, I think after the queen calls back her drones one of the eggs opens, that's why Ripley changes her mind and starts a little barbecue.

@taglion8795 2 years ago

Psychology graduate here. At the time of Alien 3 being made in the late 80s early 90s, they did believe that the XYY chromosome was linked to higher levels of aggression, & higher levels of aggression was linked with higher incarceration rates. This would later be pretty much universally dismissed in the 2000s.

@MaybeAnnatar 2 years ago

The fact Ridley Scott made Alien and Blade Runner within 3 years of each other is fucking wild. His later movies have been hit or miss, but he released two of the greatest science fiction movies of all time basically back to back.

@greyrose6097 1 year ago

The fact that Ridley Scott said he wouldn't change a thing about Alien and that it was perfect, makes me so happy and warms up my heart ❤

@steampunkfox4932 2 years ago (edited)

in the first Alien movie, the reason the Xenomorph is so lethargic and so much slower at the end of the film is originally the Xenomorphs were supposed to have an extremely short lifespan so by the end of the Xenomorph was pretty much on it's deathbed so that's why it was so much easier to kill at the end of the film. Also, edit in the extended cut of Aliens it's revealed that Burk had intentionally sent the colonists to the derelict alien spaceship due to Ripley's story hoping he could acquire the Xenomorphs with the intention of getting a good bonus.

@ShadowSonic2 2 years ago (edited)

The reason why Ripley knew the alien in her was a Queen was because it had the same crest on its head/skull the Queen had, unlike the smooth heads of all the other aliens.

And really, the Assembly Cut is GREAT. The extended version really fills in the plot well.

@richardallen6066 2 years ago

Ripley flames the eggs because one of them opens after her and the queen have already come to an understanding, not just cause she feels like it...

@DrumsAndGames 2 years ago (edited)

In Resurrection, the offspring’s death at the end is a bit goofy, yes. But I still find it to be effectively unsettling. How it screams, the way it gets sucked into space, it’s f*ckin brutal.

@luckyspurs 2 years ago

Newt becoming a teacher in real life is really sweet.

Like just being happy having a regular life, with the one amazingly cool thing being super endearing in one of the greatest movies of all time.

@nickturnbow2948 2 years ago

They DO explain why the alien attack happened right after Ripley's return in Aliens. Burke was the one who sent Newt's family to the coordinates of the crashed alien ship (based on Ripley's report to the company). That's why she confronts Burke. Depending on which edit you're watching, this might be less clear in the shorter theatrical cut.

@OokiBlaylock 2 years ago

You mentioned having equipment that would help but isn’t used. Being in the military right now I can tell you that this is the most accurate aspect of this film. Often do we have equipment that would help our jobs 1000 times over. Making what we do so much easier, but for whatever reason we can’t use it. That is accurate. We have forward observers and mortars, that can clear out an entire area before infantry goes there. However, we will send infantry first and wonder why we suffer casualties.

@pizzagrenade 2 years ago

They do explain why they just can't leave the planet in Romulus. The reason they are going to the station to begin with is to steal Cryo pods in order for them to sleep through interstellar travel since it takes years to go anywhere. The company itself must have all available sleep pods on the planet, so any regular person with a ship can't really go anywhere without them.
