I didn't take those stills - there's some guy who has a site telling the entire story of "Alien" in stills like that..!
very handy if you decide to do an avatar series about the Alien films..

I don't like that ending.
not because it's too bleak, but more because it's kind of stupid - makes the alien much more intelligent than is believable, I think.

It's premiering at midnight at this local theater on Halloween. I'll be there.
They also showed Akira a couple nights ago, which was really nice to see on the silver screen. Good sound system, too.

The original ending had the alien biting Ripley's head off, then radioing back to Earth using her voice. Weird.
And the aliens don't have space travel, the ship Dallas goes on belongs to another race, hence the big thing in the gun.

oh right, so they just inhabit the planet. I always thought it was the alien's ship. How cool is that big gun scene... amazing how they managed to do what they did in that film ever 20 years ago.

Aside from some pacing issues and rather naff dialogue I think this film has stood up brilliantly. Mostly it's hardly dated at all. I have absolutely no interest in going to see a slightly different version in the cinema though.

naaaaaah!! the space jockey (or navigator) is what they call the big thing in the chair - so it isn't a 'big gun' but some kind of navigation console.
they probably were transporting alien eggs for some reason (some people think because the aliens would be designed, a kind of biological weaponry, which I think is rather a boring idea) - hence "the layer of mist" covering the eggs, which gives off a kind of warning signal when broken by Kane upon his descent.
underway something went wrong and the ship crashed on LV-426, the ship sending out a distress beacon warning other ships not to come close.
fun fact about the space jockey scene - that set wasn't really that big. Ridley Scott had small spacesuits designed which were worn by his own children in that scene, making it all look huge. :)

I have that one too, yep..
but really, this thing is CRAMMED full of stuff.. for one thing, they speak to all the actors, which I just love. there's a new commentarytrack for the old "Alien", with not only Scott this time, but also the writers, Sigourney Weaver, Tom Skerrit, Veronica Cartwright, Harry Dean Stanton and John Hurt.
that alone makes me cream my pants. let alone all the commentary tracks on the other three films.. let alone all the extra documentaries...
gaaAAAhhh...
