1 00:00:00,281 --> 00:00:04,772 Speaker 1: Welcome back to episode 133 of Project Geekology 2 00:00:04,772 --> 00:00:04,772 . 3 00:00:04,772 --> 00:00:08,769 This is the continued discussion of our Alien 4 00:00:08,829 --> 00:00:10,352 franchise marathon. 5 00:00:10,352 --> 00:00:12,907 Basically, we're just, week after week, covering another 6 00:00:13,247 --> 00:00:13,750 Alien movie. 7 00:00:13,750 --> 00:00:16,809 We're going to be eventually covering Alien Earth as well, 8 00:00:17,661 --> 00:00:22,873 and we're covering Alien 3, on this third part of this series, 9 00:00:25,126 --> 00:00:28,861 and we're reaching back to some of the cast from Aliens 2 as we 10 00:00:28,902 --> 00:00:29,786 start this movie off. 11 00:00:29,786 --> 00:00:35,362 We have Ripley, we have Newt, we have Corporal Hicks and then 12 00:00:35,383 --> 00:00:40,081 we have the android Bishop all returning, for you know at least 13 00:00:40,081 --> 00:00:43,165 the start of this movie and we'll see where these adventures 14 00:00:43,165 --> 00:00:44,369 go from here. 15 00:00:44,369 --> 00:00:48,127 I'm one third of your hosts, dakota, and I'm joined, as 16 00:00:48,188 --> 00:00:52,281 always, with anthony and I thought it was alien cubed uh, 17 00:00:52,783 --> 00:00:56,110 is that, is that actually the wouldn't cubed be? 18 00:00:56,612 --> 00:01:00,741 oh, no, two is squared, so three is squared, three is cubed yeah 19 00:01:00,741 --> 00:01:01,222 you're right. 20 00:01:01,222 --> 00:01:04,831 Okay, so maybe this is just alien cubed yes I'll have to 21 00:01:05,091 --> 00:01:06,682 mull that one over, but what? 22 00:01:06,802 --> 00:01:08,486 Speaker 2: number is alien, though. 23 00:01:08,486 --> 00:01:11,051 Like what number represents alien? 24 00:01:11,051 --> 00:01:14,141 And like how are they cubing a word? 25 00:01:14,823 --> 00:01:15,566 Speaker 1: excellent question. 26 00:01:15,566 --> 00:01:16,567 Excellent question. 27 00:01:16,567 --> 00:01:17,769 We're gonna be pondering this. 28 00:01:17,790 --> 00:01:22,644 Speaker 2: Yes, yes uh, and and the the the last of our hosts 29 00:01:22,745 --> 00:01:24,246 joining us this week is. 30 00:01:24,828 --> 00:01:28,393 Speaker 3: Rich, and I think that the way you cube something, 31 00:01:28,393 --> 00:01:30,656 a word, is you have to use the FOIL method. 32 00:01:30,656 --> 00:01:34,009 I'm an English teacher, not a math teacher, but I firmly 33 00:01:34,049 --> 00:01:34,531 believe this. 34 00:01:34,799 --> 00:01:37,694 Speaker 1: Do explain the FOIL method, because I don't think I 35 00:01:37,734 --> 00:01:38,640 made it that far in math. 36 00:01:39,040 --> 00:01:44,049 Speaker 3: So it's when you have to multiply two binomials it 37 00:01:44,549 --> 00:01:47,194 outer, inner, lasts. 38 00:01:47,396 --> 00:01:50,381 Speaker 1: That's the the order of the multiplication you have 39 00:01:50,400 --> 00:01:54,328 to do when you then make it into a first outer inner last okay 40 00:01:54,670 --> 00:01:59,082 foil very good, and does that translate at all to the alien in 41 00:01:59,082 --> 00:01:59,644 this film? 42 00:02:00,144 --> 00:02:06,373 Speaker 3: I mean it looked a little kind of metal-like when 43 00:02:06,433 --> 00:02:10,227 it was dripping that juice, but I'm not sure if there's any 44 00:02:10,266 --> 00:02:12,877 other relation other than the steel look. 45 00:02:13,179 --> 00:02:13,379 Speaker 1: All right. 46 00:02:13,379 --> 00:02:15,266 So let's hold on, let's back this up. 47 00:02:15,266 --> 00:02:18,830 The first would be the first alien from the alien movie. 48 00:02:18,830 --> 00:02:24,393 Then the outer might have been the queen the queen, yeah, okay. 49 00:02:24,393 --> 00:02:25,667 In the second movie. 50 00:02:25,667 --> 00:02:29,405 The inner would be probably whatever's in ripley during this 51 00:02:29,405 --> 00:02:31,250 movie and the l. 52 00:02:31,250 --> 00:02:36,163 The last is probably this alien in alien 3, or alien cubed, as 53 00:02:36,203 --> 00:02:40,151 anthony is so willingly testing me on there's a pop quiz next 54 00:02:40,211 --> 00:02:43,626 week there's a pop quiz next week for alien resurrection. 55 00:02:43,665 --> 00:02:45,251 Guys, be guys, be there or be square. 56 00:02:45,251 --> 00:02:47,306 I'm going to get this right out of the way. 57 00:02:47,306 --> 00:02:52,288 This movie is juicy and probably not in the way that 58 00:02:52,389 --> 00:02:54,933 anybody wants it to be juicy. 59 00:02:54,933 --> 00:02:59,211 You know, in previous Alien franchise movies we've had juicy 60 00:02:59,211 --> 00:03:01,186 aliens, we've had juicy androids. 61 00:03:01,186 --> 00:03:02,825 Now we have juicy humans. 62 00:03:02,825 --> 00:03:04,525 A lot of blood is shed in. 63 00:03:04,525 --> 00:03:06,842 This movie had juicy androids, now we have juicy humans. 64 00:03:06,842 --> 00:03:07,604 A lot of blood is shed in this movie. 65 00:03:07,604 --> 00:03:09,069 Um, and it's, it's very typical , uh, I think of early 90s and 66 00:03:09,090 --> 00:03:11,317 mid 90s movies that are trying to be a little edgier. 67 00:03:11,317 --> 00:03:14,046 You think of like the like, going all the way up to like 68 00:03:14,086 --> 00:03:14,388 blade. 69 00:03:14,388 --> 00:03:17,842 In the late 90s you have this like level of rated r, where 70 00:03:18,022 --> 00:03:24,852 it's like super edgy to be gory and crass and yeah, it's uh dark 71 00:03:24,852 --> 00:03:25,712 , you know it's it's. 72 00:03:25,992 --> 00:03:28,640 Speaker 2: And it's the grunge era of films, you know it's 73 00:03:28,721 --> 00:03:32,067 definitely, it's definitely the grunge era of films. 74 00:03:32,247 --> 00:03:37,784 Speaker 1: So, in honor of the, the, the juiciness of it all, um 75 00:03:37,784 --> 00:03:41,395 , I'm gonna ask you guys to give this podcast, on whatever 76 00:03:41,676 --> 00:03:44,286 podcast application you're listening to, a five-star review 77 00:03:44,286 --> 00:03:45,640 , but not just a five-star review. 78 00:03:45,640 --> 00:03:50,451 Make it a juicy five-star review, as, as we enjoy here, um 79 00:03:50,451 --> 00:03:52,703 , there's a little bit of crunch in this movie, not the good 80 00:03:52,742 --> 00:03:57,293 kind, uh like a bone-sawing crunch in it, and I don't really 81 00:03:57,293 --> 00:03:59,789 I don't think that really applies to this podcast for this 82 00:03:59,789 --> 00:04:00,233 episode. 83 00:04:00,233 --> 00:04:03,623 But guys, give us a five-star juicy review if it's, uh, the 84 00:04:03,644 --> 00:04:06,831 last thing you, you do on whatever day you're listening to 85 00:04:06,831 --> 00:04:06,951 this. 86 00:04:06,951 --> 00:04:10,227 If it's the last thing that you do, you better. 87 00:04:12,161 --> 00:04:13,265 Speaker 2: They're on their last breath. 88 00:04:13,265 --> 00:04:15,487 I got to give them that five-star review. 89 00:04:18,300 --> 00:04:20,309 Speaker 1: Last thing you do on the day that you listen to this. 90 00:04:20,309 --> 00:04:23,903 I'm not telling you it's downhill from here, it's uphill, 91 00:04:23,903 --> 00:04:24,545 I think. 92 00:04:24,545 --> 00:04:25,480 To this. 93 00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:25,661 I'm not. 94 00:04:25,661 --> 00:04:26,985 I'm not telling you it's it's downhill from here, um, it's 95 00:04:27,004 --> 00:04:27,305 uphill, I think. 96 00:04:27,305 --> 00:04:27,365 So. 97 00:04:27,365 --> 00:04:30,374 Anyway, guys, uh, yeah, we're, we're gonna jump into our review 98 00:04:30,374 --> 00:04:34,043 very shortly, but before we get into any of that, I'm gonna 99 00:04:34,084 --> 00:04:34,966 send it over to rich. 100 00:04:34,966 --> 00:04:36,309 What have you been up to this past week? 101 00:04:36,831 --> 00:04:39,946 Speaker 3: uh, just uh kind of in full swing with uh, cross 102 00:04:39,966 --> 00:04:40,567 country again. 103 00:04:40,567 --> 00:04:43,300 Uh, the school year is kind of getting into full swing. 104 00:04:43,300 --> 00:04:46,872 I had to go to my son's open house, which whenever I go to 105 00:04:46,932 --> 00:04:48,800 like an open house or a parent teacher conference. 106 00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:51,947 I know as a parent I'm supposed to do it to be a good person, 107 00:04:52,007 --> 00:04:55,524 but I feel like I'm crossing the picket line, like I'm a scab, 108 00:04:55,884 --> 00:04:58,872 like I'm a teacher and I'm going and making another teacher's 109 00:04:58,891 --> 00:05:03,627 day longer by by being there and and I feel I feel kind of wrong 110 00:05:03,627 --> 00:05:03,987 about that. 111 00:05:03,987 --> 00:05:08,214 But outside of that I've just really been still. 112 00:05:08,214 --> 00:05:10,026 I mean, the season is winding down in MLB. 113 00:05:10,026 --> 00:05:12,427 I have one more player to get. 114 00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:16,579 I think I'm almost there, guys, mlb the show right I will 115 00:05:16,600 --> 00:05:22,261 finally, yes, be able to buy the Aaron Judge regular card, which 116 00:05:22,261 --> 00:05:26,692 will give me the entirety of all mlb 26, all all the 117 00:05:26,872 --> 00:05:27,613 franchises. 118 00:05:27,613 --> 00:05:32,226 I will finally get that top carlos beltran card that I've 119 00:05:32,266 --> 00:05:34,230 been eyeing since april. 120 00:05:34,230 --> 00:05:36,213 So we're almost here. 121 00:05:36,213 --> 00:05:37,382 We're almost here. 122 00:05:37,382 --> 00:05:40,629 It's hard to do, though, because I'm grinding a lot and 123 00:05:40,670 --> 00:05:41,973 the mets are terrible. 124 00:05:42,072 --> 00:05:43,425 Speaker 1: Can I ask you actually? 125 00:05:43,425 --> 00:05:45,374 Yeah, mlb, the show does. 126 00:05:45,374 --> 00:05:49,326 It does like the season ends when the mlb season ends, or 127 00:05:49,406 --> 00:05:51,333 it's just it'll go a little further. 128 00:05:51,533 --> 00:05:54,882 Speaker 3: Like they'll they'll include because, like they have, 129 00:05:54,882 --> 00:05:57,870 like they have mini seasons or whatever seasons they call them. 130 00:05:57,870 --> 00:06:02,048 So like we're on season seven right now, so they'll probably 131 00:06:02,168 --> 00:06:04,836 have another season that'll be the playoffs they'll release 132 00:06:04,855 --> 00:06:07,891 special cards and then they'll have like one that ends. 133 00:06:07,891 --> 00:06:09,759 It'll be after the world series . 134 00:06:09,759 --> 00:06:14,012 Like they'll release some kind of cool world series car edition 135 00:06:14,012 --> 00:06:16,961 for the players that are left in the playoffs and then it'll 136 00:06:17,202 --> 00:06:18,105 finally end. 137 00:06:18,105 --> 00:06:21,351 I think like officially, they stopped, like uploading a lot of 138 00:06:21,351 --> 00:06:23,524 new stuff, like middle november . 139 00:06:23,584 --> 00:06:26,130 Speaker 1: I want to say okay, all right, very good. 140 00:06:26,130 --> 00:06:30,769 Um, I want to pivot, uh, what you've been up to this past week 141 00:06:30,769 --> 00:06:32,961 , because you've been doing something for the past couple 142 00:06:33,002 --> 00:06:35,653 weeks, pretty much ever since we started the smallville oh uh 143 00:06:35,713 --> 00:06:37,982 podcast um, and you're almost done. 144 00:06:37,982 --> 00:06:40,048 You, you've been on a marathon stint. 145 00:06:40,048 --> 00:06:44,562 Uh and uh, how far, how far are you in smallville at this point 146 00:06:44,562 --> 00:06:44,562 ? 147 00:06:44,562 --> 00:06:45,865 Uh, you don't have much left. 148 00:06:46,086 --> 00:06:46,728 Speaker 3: I don't even know. 149 00:06:46,728 --> 00:06:49,358 Three, four weeks ago we watched one season of Smallville 150 00:06:49,358 --> 00:06:51,026 and now I'm on season 10. 151 00:06:51,026 --> 00:06:53,648 It's been a journey. 152 00:06:53,648 --> 00:06:57,583 I mean, I'm at work and when nobody's around and I'm just 153 00:06:57,622 --> 00:06:59,625 grading papers, I just throw Smallville back on. 154 00:06:59,625 --> 00:07:03,964 I'll watch like 15 to 20 minutes of it and then just have 155 00:07:03,964 --> 00:07:05,269 to pause it and come back to it . 156 00:07:05,269 --> 00:07:07,709 But with Hulu it's really convenient. 157 00:07:07,709 --> 00:07:10,369 So I'm just watching it wherever I want to watch it. 158 00:07:10,369 --> 00:07:13,946 If I'm in the car waiting for my son outside of Taekwondo 159 00:07:13,966 --> 00:07:16,732 before I pick him up, hey, that's another 10 minutes of 160 00:07:16,771 --> 00:07:17,994 Smallville, I can get in there. 161 00:07:17,994 --> 00:07:19,586 So it's crazy. 162 00:07:19,586 --> 00:07:21,545 I forgot what happens. 163 00:07:21,545 --> 00:07:22,750 It's nuts. 164 00:07:22,750 --> 00:07:26,767 Lana Lang is still a villain, I can happily say in season 10, I 165 00:07:26,767 --> 00:07:27,870 still firmly believe. 166 00:07:27,870 --> 00:07:31,446 Especially, do you think she knows that she's a villain? 167 00:07:31,446 --> 00:07:34,846 Oh yeah, she gets like a villain haircut. 168 00:07:34,846 --> 00:07:37,464 When she comes back she's like look at me, I'm Lana, the 169 00:07:37,504 -->

00:08:19,562 --> 00:08:23,105 Oh no, I'm going to be like a certain character when another 194 00:08:23,144 --> 00:08:25,726 character inhabited that character and overloaded them. 195 00:08:26,127 --> 00:08:27,387 Speaker 2: You played yourself, man. 196 00:08:27,387 --> 00:08:31,492 But so what have I been up to man? 197 00:08:31,492 --> 00:08:35,375 A whole lot of nothing but working, that's not fun. 198 00:08:35,815 --> 00:08:37,157 Speaker 1: A whole lot of nothing but work man. 199 00:08:37,157 --> 00:08:37,876 Yeah, that sucks. 200 00:08:46,899 --> 00:08:47,946 Speaker 2: No well, no, not like I've been working like all the 201 00:08:47,849 --> 00:08:49,655 time, but like I feel like really just like in the last 202 00:08:49,557 --> 00:08:51,265 time that that we've recorded like I've been working like all 203 00:08:51,168 --> 00:08:51,576 the time, but like I feel like really just like in the last 204 00:08:51,479 --> 00:08:52,114 time that that we've recorded like I've. 205 00:08:52,114 --> 00:08:52,097 You know, it's just been like normal day to day, like I'm 206 00:08:52,138 --> 00:08:56,471 working and then then like I'll go to the gym and then I go play 207 00:08:56,471 --> 00:08:59,388 some some video games you haven't had time to yourself to 208 00:08:59,408 --> 00:08:59,607 like. 209 00:08:59,649 --> 00:09:00,291 Speaker 1: enjoy something. 210 00:09:00,559 --> 00:09:04,048 Speaker 2: Well, I mean I have had time to enjoy myself, like 211 00:09:04,187 --> 00:09:07,462 you know, gaming and stuff, but you know it's just like. 212 00:09:07,462 --> 00:09:10,070 You know just like it's been routine stuff that I've. 213 00:09:10,070 --> 00:09:12,823 That I've been up to, like I'm not saying that work has been 214 00:09:12,943 --> 00:09:15,750 insane, but I mean I've just been like you know, just it's 215 00:09:15,892 --> 00:09:20,466 been just work, gym, you know, gaming a bit at night and then 216 00:09:21,027 --> 00:09:21,687 going to sleep. 217 00:09:21,687 --> 00:09:23,049 But I do have. 218 00:09:23,049 --> 00:09:26,815 I do have like a little mini convention that I'm going to 219 00:09:27,642 --> 00:09:32,614 close by on saturday, so that'll be fun oh, that's cool. 220 00:09:32,693 --> 00:09:35,902 What, what a little when I say mini convention, like it's going 221 00:09:35,902 --> 00:09:38,548 to be in a high school gym nice . 222 00:09:38,849 --> 00:09:40,351 Speaker 1: Oh, I've been to one of those is the best. 223 00:09:40,371 --> 00:09:42,966 Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know if they're the best but they exist 224 00:09:42,966 --> 00:09:46,542 well, I mean, uh, I mean they're, they're, they're 225 00:09:47,143 --> 00:09:51,751 actually really fun and the reason why, like I I say that is 226 00:09:51,751 --> 00:09:56,269 because the larger ones can be sensory overload and sometimes 227 00:09:56,308 --> 00:09:58,475 you can get some like really like. 228 00:09:58,475 --> 00:10:01,102 These small conventions are almost like you. 229 00:10:01,102 --> 00:10:04,331 You get the, the, you do get some artists that come in and 230 00:10:04,370 --> 00:10:06,464 people that come in with their stuff, but it's almost like a 231 00:10:06,504 --> 00:10:10,322 garage sale also and you can find some like really good finds 232 00:10:10,322 --> 00:10:15,057 like the last mini one that I went to, I found pokemon silver 233 00:10:15,116 --> 00:10:16,721 for like a really, really good price. 234 00:10:17,423 --> 00:10:21,431 Where we're in a world where and and I like was able to like 235 00:10:21,451 --> 00:10:23,124 verify that it was a legit one, but in a world where, like 236 00:10:23,163 --> 00:10:24,652 pokemon silver is like selling upwards to like verify that it 237 00:10:24,672 --> 00:10:24,994 was a legit one. 238 00:10:24,994 --> 00:10:26,881 But in a world where, like Pokemon Silver is like selling 239 00:10:26,961 --> 00:10:29,528 upwards to like a hundred dollars, I got it for like 40. 240 00:10:30,009 --> 00:10:32,162 Speaker 3: Those places I used to go to the Knights of Columbus 241 00:10:32,162 --> 00:10:36,812 , uh around here with my dad and man, like for card shows, and 242 00:10:36,831 --> 00:10:40,284 they were like cringe and kind of sad, but at the same time you 243 00:10:40,284 --> 00:10:44,511 got some great deals so it was kind of worth going to yes, sir, 244 00:10:44,511 --> 00:10:45,332 but yeah, no. 245 00:10:45,373 --> 00:10:47,422 Speaker 2: So that that's what I have going on. 246 00:10:47,422 --> 00:10:53,251 And well, I mean, I don't think I had said like last last week, 247 00:10:53,251 --> 00:10:58,086 but I did end up going to see earlier last week I did go to 248 00:10:58,126 --> 00:11:02,179 see, uh, freakier friday I think you did mention it, but did I 249 00:11:02,221 --> 00:11:02,461 mention? 250 00:11:02,520 --> 00:11:04,341 Speaker 1: I don't remember if you mentioned whether or not you 251 00:11:04,341 --> 00:11:04,883 liked it or not. 252 00:11:05,663 --> 00:11:07,184 Speaker 2: Yeah, no, it was fun, I liked it. 253 00:11:07,184 --> 00:11:09,647 It was a solid movie. 254 00:11:09,647 --> 00:11:13,789 I think that it lived up pretty well to like the first movie 255 00:11:14,370 --> 00:11:18,573 Awesome, yeah, you know, the first one being a Lindsay Lohan 256 00:11:18,615 --> 00:11:21,636 classic, like that was just like the Lindsay Lohan era back then 257 00:11:21,636 --> 00:11:21,636 . 258 00:11:21,636 --> 00:11:26,104 So, yeah, it was fun to see her come back around. 259 00:11:26,104 --> 00:11:27,990 But, yeah, what have you been up to Dakota? 260 00:11:29,201 --> 00:11:33,904 Speaker 1: Not a whole lot of pop culture stuff like we would 261 00:11:33,924 --> 00:11:35,429 normally discuss in the podcast. 262 00:11:35,429 --> 00:11:39,207 I went down to Miami literally like the morning after we 263 00:11:39,269 --> 00:11:42,346 recorded last week's episode, because my great-grandmother was 264 00:11:42,346 --> 00:11:42,888 in the hospital. 265 00:11:44,621 --> 00:11:45,746 Speaker 2: Oh, okay, that that's . 266 00:11:45,746 --> 00:11:49,092 That's which one I was actually going to ask you which which 267 00:11:49,134 --> 00:11:51,761 grandmother, which, uh, grandmother yeah yeah, it's the. 268 00:11:52,001 --> 00:11:54,586 Speaker 1: It's the centenarian, the. 269 00:11:54,586 --> 00:11:55,567 She's 100 years old. 270 00:11:55,567 --> 00:12:04,932 She fell and broke eight ribs, but somehow is still kicking and 271 00:12:04,932 --> 00:12:06,014 is being discharged. 272 00:12:06,014 --> 00:12:10,144 I think she was discharged yesterday from the hospital, so 273 00:12:10,485 --> 00:12:11,654 they're going to finally require her to use a. 274 00:12:12,340 --> 00:12:13,926 Speaker 2: Was it like downstairs or? 275 00:12:14,500 --> 00:12:15,384 Speaker 1: It just fell in her room. 276 00:12:15,725 --> 00:12:18,605 Speaker 2: Yeah, oh okay, At a certain point you get too weak. 277 00:12:19,220 --> 00:12:21,548 Speaker 1: But yeah, surprisingly she's still kicking 278 00:12:21,548 --> 00:12:23,523 , thankfully, but it's kind of like a weird thing because how 279 00:12:23,485 --> 00:12:23,924 do you survive that at 100 years old? 280 00:12:23,924 --> 00:12:24,150 It's crazy. 281 00:12:24,150 --> 00:12:24,931 I don't know, surprisingly she's still kicking, thankfully, 282 00:12:24,931 --> 00:12:25,557 but it's kind of like a weird thing because, like, how do you 283 00:12:25,577 --> 00:12:27,984 survive that at 100 years old? 284 00:12:28,404 --> 00:12:29,768 Speaker 2: it's crazy I don't know. 285 00:12:29,768 --> 00:12:32,942 Hey, man, she, she's like you're not gonna, you're not 286 00:12:32,961 --> 00:12:36,450 gonna take me down at 100 years old yeah, I know I, I guess 287 00:12:36,470 --> 00:12:40,725 she's uh, it's been for 101, but anyway, uh yeah. 288 00:12:40,745 --> 00:12:42,230 Speaker 1: So I was down there, visited family. 289 00:12:42,230 --> 00:12:43,883 It was in the nursing home for like most of it, honestly, it 290 00:12:43,903 --> 00:12:44,466 was like four or five hours. 291 00:12:44,466 --> 00:12:45,573 Family it was in the nursing home for, like most of it, 292 00:12:45,594 --> 00:12:46,519 honestly, it was like four or five hours a day. 293 00:12:46,519 --> 00:12:47,846 I was in the nursing home just sitting there. 294 00:12:48,559 --> 00:12:54,851 Otherwise I listened to the aliens plural aliens sequel uh, 295 00:12:55,153 --> 00:13:00,751 novelization, um, not too much new stuff there, but they do. 296 00:13:00,751 --> 00:13:06,147 It's kind of like the special edition of aliensens where they 297 00:13:06,206 --> 00:13:10,432 do incorporate the deleted scenes that are in the special 298 00:13:10,472 --> 00:13:12,755 edition cut of the second movie. 299 00:13:12,755 --> 00:13:16,298 So that was kind of cool because I hadn't seen those in 300 00:13:16,317 --> 00:13:16,559 forever. 301 00:13:16,559 --> 00:13:19,746 And I'm probably going to go back and rewatch the Alien 302 00:13:19,787 --> 00:13:23,434 special edition sometime either tomorrow or Friday, from um, 303 00:13:23,634 --> 00:13:25,679 from my, from my own like timeline notes or whatever. 304 00:13:25,679 --> 00:13:32,075 And uh, yeah, I watched alien 3 or alien cubed today and I 305 00:13:32,115 --> 00:13:36,403 downloaded the novelization for that and I'm gonna I'm gonna 306 00:13:36,544 --> 00:13:41,333 supplement my, my watch of that uh with that audiobook and then 307 00:13:41,360 --> 00:13:43,988 I'm gonna go into alien resurrectionurrection after I 308 00:13:44,028 --> 00:13:45,211 finish the audiobook. 309 00:13:45,211 --> 00:13:46,783 So that's my game plan. 310 00:13:46,802 --> 00:13:51,331 With the Alien movie slash novelizations, I get a little 311 00:13:51,393 --> 00:13:54,024 bit of a brief respite with Prometheus, because there's no 312 00:13:54,085 --> 00:13:58,842 novelization for that one, but there's a prequel novel and a 313 00:13:58,923 --> 00:14:00,886 novelization of Alien Covenant. 314 00:14:00,886 --> 00:14:06,780 So by the time we get to that, I have a lot of alien covenant. 315 00:14:06,780 --> 00:14:08,085 So by the time we get to that, I have a lot of like listening 316 00:14:08,105 --> 00:14:08,525 to do uh, for for that. 317 00:14:08,525 --> 00:14:10,291 But I'm excited about that because that's, a the only alien 318 00:14:10,291 --> 00:14:13,722 movie I've never seen and b the only alien movie that gets a 319 00:14:13,883 --> 00:14:18,812 prequel novelization or prequel novel officially so, oh, oh, you 320 00:14:18,812 --> 00:14:21,808 didn't see prometheus, I saw prometheus, I didn't see 321 00:14:21,849 --> 00:14:27,587 Covenant oh, okay, yeah, I saw Covenant what's next? 322 00:14:29,650 --> 00:14:33,205 so Alien 3, then there's Alien Resurrection and then it goes 323 00:14:33,264 --> 00:14:38,770 into the prequels Prometheus, alien Covenant, and then there's 324 00:14:38,770 --> 00:14:43,697 Romulus, which technically takes place between 1 and 2, and 325 00:14:43,697 --> 00:14:46,480 they're all basically different stories, which is just. 326 00:14:46,480 --> 00:14:48,668 It's such a bizarre franchise. 327 00:14:48,668 --> 00:14:52,320 They they go through so many different, like twists and turns 328 00:14:52,320 --> 00:14:57,850 , and alien cubed, as anthony is want to call it, is no, is no 329 00:14:57,870 --> 00:14:58,150 different. 330 00:14:58,150 --> 00:15:01,022 This is the probably the most bizarre one to me. 331 00:15:01,022 --> 00:15:03,726 Actually, it's probably not the most bizarre one, but it's. 332 00:15:03,726 --> 00:15:07,813 It's up there in like the top two most bizarre choices for the 333 00:15:07,813 --> 00:15:08,615 alien franchise. 334 00:15:08,615 --> 00:15:09,496 You know what? 335 00:15:09,798 --> 00:15:12,663 Speaker 2: I'm I'm actually still a little surprised that 336 00:15:12,702 --> 00:15:17,072 this was like the one series that passed rich, like, like 337 00:15:17,452 --> 00:15:20,245 like when I think of um, because I, I know you watched the 338 00:15:20,285 --> 00:15:24,923 predator series and I did too but like alien is like, kind of 339 00:15:24,964 --> 00:15:27,863 like when it's like when you've watched predator you've also 340 00:15:27,923 --> 00:15:31,451 watched alien well, kind of you know, like they're two sides of 341 00:15:31,471 --> 00:15:32,966 this of like the same coin. 342 00:15:32,985 --> 00:15:35,076 Speaker 3: But then again, I've never watched the predator, but 343 00:15:35,096 --> 00:15:36,059 you're also, I've never. 344 00:15:36,100 --> 00:15:39,989 Speaker 2: That's crazy man am I the only one that's seen both? 345 00:15:39,989 --> 00:15:42,442 I think you are, in this case you have to understand also. 346 00:15:42,482 --> 00:15:45,220 Speaker 3: The thing is, though, that when, like when, when I'm 347 00:15:45,259 --> 00:15:48,246 in florida and that predator movie comes on on the movie 348 00:15:48,267 --> 00:15:51,562 channel, I see arnold, who I love all right, like I already 349 00:15:51,623 --> 00:15:54,296 seen some arnold stuff, whatever I don't know. 350 00:15:54,296 --> 00:15:58,626 His voice is hilarious, and but also, the other draw was jesse 351 00:15:58,647 --> 00:15:59,448 the body ventura. 352 00:15:59,448 --> 00:16:02,542 He was a big wrestling guy, so I was like, oh, it's that, it's 353 00:16:02,562 --> 00:16:05,485 that wrestling guy, right, so I was more drawn to that, like if 354 00:16:05,527 --> 00:16:08,672 you didn't have, you know, sigordney weaver, and it was 355 00:16:08,731 --> 00:16:12,323 like hulk hogan, I guess you know like, oh, no, bro, the 356 00:16:12,504 --> 00:16:15,171 aliens aren't gonna get me, brother, you know, like, what 357 00:16:15,191 --> 00:16:20,325 you're gonna do aliens. 358 00:16:20,345 --> 00:16:23,928 You know, like I'd be, watching that in was in Gremlins 2. 359 00:16:24,970 --> 00:16:29,115 Speaker 2: I will say, though, that the acting between the two 360 00:16:29,975 --> 00:16:30,716 is different. 361 00:16:30,716 --> 00:16:36,038 The earlier Predators are a little corny, and I think it is 362 00:16:36,197 --> 00:16:38,404 yeah, no, yeah, yeah, it's corny . 363 00:16:39,655 --> 00:16:41,480 Speaker 3: Well, I think they've got you pushing too many 364 00:16:41,541 --> 00:16:42,102 pencils. 365 00:16:42,102 --> 00:16:43,986 Okay, anthony, I think that's the problem. 366 00:16:43,986 --> 00:16:45,099 Yeah, yeah. 367 00:16:45,600 --> 00:16:46,283 Speaker 2: Exactly. 368 00:16:46,674 --> 00:16:49,162 Speaker 3: That high five is the greatest high five of all time. 369 00:16:49,162 --> 00:16:49,763 We're not getting. 370 00:16:51,254 --> 00:16:52,298 Speaker 2: I have seen that actually. 371 00:16:52,298 --> 00:16:53,783 Yeah, no, what happened? 372 00:16:53,962 --> 00:16:57,158 Speaker 1: I've seen the high five, but anyway we're 373 00:16:57,177 --> 00:16:57,698 digressing. 374 00:16:57,698 --> 00:16:58,919 But anyway, we're digressing. 375 00:16:58,919 --> 00:17:01,924 We'll have to get to Predator at some point, I thought we were 376 00:17:01,924 --> 00:17:04,307 ingressing because they're in the same universe. 377 00:17:04,307 --> 00:17:05,549 Potentially. 378 00:17:05,549 --> 00:17:07,938 It's not been like really confirmed. 379 00:17:07,938 --> 00:17:08,599 Hey look, we have Alien vs. 380 00:17:08,640 --> 00:17:09,080 Speaker 2: Predator. 381 00:17:09,080 --> 00:17:10,104 Are they canonical? 382 00:17:10,104 --> 00:17:12,501 No, but they exist somewhere, you know. 383 00:17:12,541 --> 00:17:16,383 Speaker 1: Yeah, and Rich, you're welcome to skip ahead. 384 00:17:16,383 --> 00:17:19,932 Only to Alien vs versus predator and alien versus 385 00:17:19,971 --> 00:17:22,939 predator requiem, because it's the ones that we're not covering 386

00:17:37,758 don't aren't the one that we're talking about that's fine by me 392 00:17:38,138 --> 00:17:39,102 with In this case. 393 00:17:39,844 --> 00:17:43,443 Speaker 1: Shall we jump over to our

ready for that. 397 00:17:46,976 --> 00:17:48,281 Speaker 1: I'd like to start by saying something. 398 00:17:49,037 --> 00:17:50,522 Speaker 3: I know nothing about this franchise. 399 00:17:50,522

00:18:12,305 --> 00:18:14,686 I can just kind of learn a couple new people. 409 00:18:14,686 --> 00:18:16,567 But it's going to be about Bishop. 410 00:18:16,567 --> 00:18:20,770 It's going to have Newt right Lies, all lies. 411 00:18:20,891 --> 00:18:21,791 Speaker 2: There's going to have new right Lies, All lies. 412 00:18:21,791 --> 00:18:23,952 There's continuity by technicality. 413 00:18:23,952 --> 00:18:26,875 All lies and, and, and, and. 414 00:18:26,875 --> 00:18:30,726 We do have a brief appearance of a Bishop, you know. 415 00:18:31,135 --> 00:18:32,140 Speaker 3: And he's so sad. 416 00:18:32,140 --> 00:18:36,086 He's so sad to be in there that he's like, please just end me. 417 00:18:36,086 --> 00:18:38,518 But yeah, he was done. 418 00:18:38,558 --> 00:18:43,561

before. 421 00:18:48,207 --> 00:18:51,181 That's the saving grace, the only thing that calmed me down. 422 00:18:51,181 --> 00:18:53,276 I was like, oh it's Tywin Lannister and I just kind of 423 00:18:53,336 --> 00:18:58,426 imagined him cutting a deer apart and Wally haranguing his 424 00:18:58,488 --> 00:18:58,788 sons. 425 00:18:58,788 --> 00:19:01,784 So that did warm the cockles in my heart. 426 00:19:01,934 --> 00:19:06,683 Speaker 1: but I, uh this, I I was having my, I was having a 427 00:19:06,723 --> 00:19:10,675 good laugh last week when I said you know we're gonna have the 428 00:19:10,756 --> 00:19:15,945 continuing adventures of newt hicks, rick ripley and bishop uh 429 00:19:15,945 --> 00:19:19,118 , as they make their way back to earth or whatever, whatever. 430 00:19:19,118 --> 00:19:21,684 I said um, and I saw. 431 00:19:21,684 --> 00:19:25,318 I saw the light in your eye like twinkle and I was just like 432 00:19:25,318 --> 00:19:31,669 oh is that the the anger that you had to let out? 433 00:19:31,710 --> 00:19:33,116 Speaker 2: yes, that was the anger I had. 434 00:19:33,116 --> 00:19:34,699 I was so pissed off. 435 00:19:35,160 --> 00:19:36,642 Speaker 3: I was like what's gonna happen with Newt? 436 00:19:36,642 --> 00:19:37,643 Maybe it's in. 437 00:19:37,643 --> 00:19:44,039 I had all these questions and then I was just Look, I know 438 00:19:44,079 --> 00:19:46,640 that I don't think this is the case, but you ever have a? 439 00:19:46,640 --> 00:19:52,013 I've heard some franchises where they just randomly grabbed 440 00:19:52,013 --> 00:19:55,365 a script and made it the third or fourth in that franchise, 441 00:19:55,474 --> 00:19:58,217 even though it doesn't super relate Like the Hills have Eyes 442 00:19:58,257 --> 00:19:58,919 or something like that. 443 00:19:58,919 --> 00:20:02,546 I think read one of the sequels is like just a completely 444 00:20:02,645 --> 00:20:05,436 different thing that they slapped over the franchise on 445 00:20:05,457 --> 00:20:07,882 cloverfield, cloverfield 3 yes, is that? 446 00:20:07,922 --> 00:20:12,597 yes, you know so what in the way like why didn't we continue the 447 00:20:12,597 --> 00:20:15,423 story of those like of newt over? 448 00:20:15,423 --> 00:20:15,984 Like what? 449 00:20:15,984 --> 00:20:20,067 Why the crash landing on this prison like an all-male, like 450 00:20:20,127 --> 00:20:20,913 religious prison? 451 00:20:20,913 --> 00:20:23,700 I'm very I was like what is this australia? 452 00:20:23,700 --> 00:20:26,404 Like I don't understand what is happening. 453 00:20:26,404 --> 00:20:30,820 I was so I was like I'm back to square one, like back to not 454 00:20:30,862 --> 00:20:32,385 knowing what the hell's going on over here. 455 00:20:32,385 --> 00:20:37,441 Guys, you know, and I don't, I don't know, I'm gonna. 456 00:20:37,461 --> 00:20:41,567 Speaker 2: But you know, we're finally kind of tapping into the 457 00:20:41,567 --> 00:20:43,150 name of Xenomorph. 458 00:20:43,150 --> 00:20:43,410 Right. 459 00:20:43,410 --> 00:20:46,545 We have a different one in this movie. 460 00:20:46,545 --> 00:20:52,347 We have finally gotten a non-humanoid Xenomorph in this 461 00:20:52,508 --> 00:20:55,355 one and it's kind of this one's kind of crazy. 462 00:20:55,355 --> 00:21:00,665 Like they go back to the solo X , solo xenomorph in this one, 463 00:21:00,685 --> 00:21:00,846 the. 464 00:21:00,846 --> 00:21:04,221 The second one had, uh, you know, a whole bunch of them and 465 00:21:04,240 --> 00:21:08,356 then now this one it's like just one and we're back to just that 466 00:21:08,356 --> 00:21:11,303 one xenomorph being able to just rip through everybody. 467 00:21:11,303 --> 00:21:14,655 You know, and you know there's a little, there's a little 468 00:21:14,737 --> 00:21:18,744 secret that's, you know, weighing on ripley's mind that 469 00:21:19,346 --> 00:21:20,929 she finds out later in the film. 470 00:21:21,596 --> 00:21:22,117 Speaker 1: She does. 471 00:21:22,117 --> 00:21:24,682 Yes, there's a lot to unpack with this one. 472 00:21:24,682 --> 00:21:28,776 There's a lot of really good ideas in this movie and then 473 00:21:28,796 --> 00:21:32,266 there's a lot of really poorly executed. 474 00:21:32,266 --> 00:21:35,063 Most of it is poorly executed. 475 00:21:35,063 --> 00:21:38,249 By the end of the movie, I would argue that most of the 476 00:21:38,328 --> 00:21:39,275 film is poorly executed. 477 00:21:39,275 --> 00:21:41,442 I really enjoyed the first half . 478 00:21:41,442 --> 00:21:42,505 I enjoyed the first half. 479 00:21:42,505 --> 00:21:46,536 The pacing was interesting, I liked the characters and then 480 00:21:46,596 --> 00:21:49,265 when the aliens started killing everyone off, I just checked out 481 00:21:49,265 --> 00:21:49,265 . 482 00:21:49,265 --> 00:21:50,601 I was just like okay. 483 00:21:52,297 --> 00:21:55,585 Speaker 2: I felt like I laughed a lot during this movie. 484 00:21:55,585 --> 00:21:56,626 There was a lot. 485 00:21:56,626 --> 00:22:04,898 There was a lot because because , like you said, this one where 486 00:22:04,919 --> 00:22:06,843 it's incorporating a lot of those aspects of action that we 487 00:22:06,883 --> 00:22:09,728 were getting in the in the 90s and you know, the blood was part 488 00:22:09,728 --> 00:22:13,781 of it and some of the acting I guess I don't know just the way 489 00:22:13,823 --> 00:22:17,178 that people were acting in the 90s was like kind of similar. 490 00:22:17,178 --> 00:22:21,555 Like like I was getting there's a lot of kind of corniness that 491 00:22:21,555 --> 00:22:24,320 was happening in this movie, but I mean it was. 492 00:22:24,320 --> 00:22:25,202 It was a fun watch. 493 00:22:25,202 --> 00:22:28,518 Like I don't do I think that it's like the best in the the 494 00:22:28,577 --> 00:22:33,105 series, no, but do I think it's still fun to watch? 495 00:22:33,105 --> 00:22:34,974 Yes, like it, you know it was. 496 00:22:34,974 --> 00:22:38,020 It was definitely fun to watch and I think it was even better 497 00:22:38,102 --> 00:22:43,901 to like that to see you know rich just completely have his 498 00:22:43,941 --> 00:22:44,683 heart broken. 499 00:22:44,683 --> 00:22:47,401 You know, I thought he wanted new to be dead. 500 00:22:47,401 --> 00:22:50,498 He like he, like he was so dead set on like why, is this child 501 00:22:50,577 --> 00:22:51,643 alive in this movie. 502 00:22:51,976 --> 00:22:53,821 Speaker 3: He wanted new to die, you know right. 503 00:22:53,821 --> 00:23:02,116 I didn't, and that's what happens but not in that way like 504 00:23:02,116 --> 00:23:02,920 just like, just like. 505 00:23:02,920 --> 00:23:04,022 Well, how did she die? 506 00:23:04,022 --> 00:23:05,126 She drowned in like the freezing fluid. 507 00:23:05,146 --> 00:23:05,848 Speaker 2: There was like a rip in the line. 508 00:23:05,868 --> 00:23:07,755 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, like what drowning in space. 509 00:23:07,934 --> 00:23:09,419 Speaker 3: Come on, man, like a little. 510 00:23:09,419 --> 00:23:12,507 Like, if you're gonna give me a death, like then she should 511 00:23:12,527 --> 00:23:16,266 have had like the alien implanted in her, like it should 512 00:23:16,266 --> 00:23:17,509 have been a little bit. 513 00:23:17,509 --> 00:23:19,316 I just feel like you wasted dude. 514 00:23:19,316 --> 00:23:21,857 You put like I know it's a different director, but you 515 00:23:21,917 --> 00:23:25,613 stuck like you gave her plot armor and then you kill her off 516 00:23:25,633 --> 00:23:25,954 camera. 517 00:23:25,954 --> 00:23:27,380 I don't understand. 518 00:23:27,480 --> 00:23:30,490 Speaker 2: Give her five minutes on screen so I I think that 519 00:23:30,530 --> 00:23:32,397 that was like actually so. 520 00:23:32,397 --> 00:23:35,087 So the the way that you're, you're angry, that that's 521 00:23:35,228 --> 00:23:38,960 actually like one of the bigger complaints about this movie is 522 00:23:39,020 --> 00:23:40,846 that there are, you know, they. 523 00:23:40,846 --> 00:23:44,980 They survived at the end of that movie, just to die off 524 00:23:45,020 --> 00:23:45,422 screen. 525 00:23:46,063 --> 00:23:50,335 Speaker 1: I do and I I did like I did say last week that she 526 00:23:50,375 --> 00:23:56,801 had plot armor you agreed with me, so I was like I am golden 527 00:23:56,842 --> 00:23:57,383 she did. 528 00:23:57,883 --> 00:24:01,626 Speaker 2: She did have plot armor for a film for a film. 529 00:24:01,807 --> 00:24:05,672 Yeah, yeah, but but I I did so. 530 00:24:05,672 --> 00:24:08,481 I do agree with you like the earlier in the in the movie. 531 00:24:08,481 --> 00:24:14,676 I do like the, the idea of you know, ripley like wanting to. 532 00:24:14,676 --> 00:24:18,823 She's like you know, we got to burn these bodies because, you 533 00:24:18,863 --> 00:24:22,048 know, and she was holding off withholding like the reason why, 534 00:24:22,048 --> 00:24:23,670 like she was saying it was cholera. 535 00:24:23,670 --> 00:24:28,118 Yeah, it was a cholera xenomorphia maybe, but yeah, 536 00:24:28,159 --> 00:24:32,117 like I thought that that was like a cool idea and then at the 537 00:24:32,117 --> 00:24:36,342 end of the day, it was her that was the one that had a 538 00:24:36,382 --> 00:24:37,905 xenomorph implanted in her. 539 00:24:38,275 --> 00:24:40,461 Speaker 1: You mentioned that it's a secret that she keeps, 540 00:24:40,623 --> 00:24:44,019 but she doesn't know it until I don't even think she like 541 00:24:44,079 --> 00:24:45,762 realizes that it's a possibility . 542 00:24:45,762 --> 00:24:50,999 Until after that that new xenomorph like goes up to her 543 00:24:51,859 --> 00:24:55,488 and basically like sniffs her or , like you know, communicates 544 00:24:55,827 --> 00:24:58,659 with her a little bit and then leaves right you know, and I 545 00:24:58,699 --> 00:25:02,685 think at that point she realized oh, I have plot armor again, 546 00:25:03,165 --> 00:25:04,188 for real this time. 547 00:25:04,307 --> 00:25:05,269 Speaker 2: Let me go check this out. 548 00:25:05,269 --> 00:25:07,638 Literal plot armor Well. 549 00:25:07,638 --> 00:25:10,826 Well, she also keeps the reason why she wanted like these 550 00:25:10,865 --> 00:25:12,557 bodies burned and or checked. 551 00:25:12,557 --> 00:25:15,744 You know she called it cholera instead of like yeah, there's a 552 00:25:15,786 --> 00:25:16,467 parasite in it. 553 00:25:16,467 --> 00:25:19,180 You know there's an alien parasite that could be in these 554 00:25:19,220 --> 00:25:19,641 bodies. 555 00:25:19,901 --> 00:25:23,067 Speaker 1: But there's a lot of new stuff that this movie 556 00:25:23,107 --> 00:25:27,203 introduces and I think it's worth discussing because I like 557 00:25:27,484 --> 00:25:28,366 where they were headed. 558 00:25:28,366 --> 00:25:32,545 There's a lot of like cool just lore stuff that they, you know, 559 00:25:32,545 --> 00:25:33,788 added into the franchise. 560 00:25:33,788 --> 00:25:40,565 Now we know that the gestation period for Queens is much longer 561 00:25:40,565 --> 00:25:43,855 than the average alien, because she was on that base for 562 00:25:43,875 --> 00:25:48,644 several days, where we normally see a like an alien xenomorph 563 00:25:49,205 --> 00:25:51,497 develop and pop out of a body within. 564 00:25:51,497 --> 00:25:55,023 I think I think the novelization called it 12 hours 565 00:25:55,726 --> 00:25:56,708 for yeah, it was some. 566 00:25:56,847 --> 00:26:01,791 It was definitely like a short period of time yeah, so this is 567 00:26:01,853 --> 00:26:06,587 all happening, uh, rather slowly for her and it's giving her I 568 00:26:06,627 --> 00:26:09,836 don't know how she knew it was the queen, though she just kind 569 00:26:09,876 --> 00:26:14,846 of assumed, but because she says it aloud it becomes lore, you 570 00:26:14,866 --> 00:26:17,416 know, like that's, that's right so I don't know how she 571 00:26:17,477 --> 00:26:20,800 determines that, just from go ahead. 572 00:26:21,040 --> 00:26:25,987 Speaker 2: I think she determined, possibly like after 573 00:26:26,007 --> 00:26:29,711 that interaction with the alien, that there might have been, 574 00:26:29,934 --> 00:26:33,241 like you said, there might have been some sort of communication 575 00:26:33,442 --> 00:26:37,615 or the way that it kind of reacted to her Like it didn't. 576 00:26:37,615 --> 00:26:41,507 You know, we don't really see how the xenomorphs interact with 577 00:26:41,507 --> 00:26:42,076 each other. 578 00:26:42,076 --> 00:26:45,423 You know, outside of, like you know, you just see them rushing 579 00:26:45,464 --> 00:26:47,636 whoever they're trying to kill, but like you don't see them 580 00:26:47,696 --> 00:26:49,721 interacting amongst each other, right? 581 00:26:49,721 --> 00:26:54,642 So I think that, like you know, when she had the idea like oh, 582 00:26:54,721 --> 00:26:57,972 let me get myself checked, you know, one like that it was 583 00:26:57,992 --> 00:27:00,780 taking, that she was starting to feel whatever she was feeling 584 00:27:01,281 --> 00:27:04,570 and that it was taking a while, that you know usually that the 585 00:27:04,590 --> 00:27:08,303 xenomorphs are just popping out like really quick. 586 00:27:08,784 --> 00:27:11,534 And two like yeah, like that interaction, maybe she was like 587 00:27:11,594 --> 00:27:15,362 okay, well, it, it sensed that the the xenomorph inside of me, 588 00:27:15,823 --> 00:27:19,818 but the interaction was kind of odd, you know, like some sort of 589 00:27:19,818 --> 00:27:21,063 fealty or whatever. 590 00:27:21,063 --> 00:27:22,998 You know, I don't know, yeah, it's. 591 00:27:22,998 --> 00:27:25,423 You know, maybe that's what she was. 592 00:27:25,423 --> 00:27:28,519 You know, maybe that that's how she came up with with the idea. 593 00:27:28,519 --> 00:27:30,909 But you know, at this point it's speculation. 594 00:27:30,909 --> 00:27:33,978 It's never really like shown, maybe I mean, did it? 595 00:27:34,198 --> 00:27:37,903 Speaker 1: no, it looked the same as any other, I think uh 596 00:27:37,984 --> 00:27:40,147 rich, what are your thoughts so far on our discussion? 597 00:27:40,147 --> 00:27:42,136 You've been quiet for a bit. 598 00:27:42,136 --> 00:27:43,220 Well all right. 599 00:27:43,259 --> 00:27:46,707 Speaker 3: So I, I do, I do, I like, I like the introduction of 600 00:27:46,707 --> 00:27:50,282 , like the idea of the possibility, like the, the 601 00:27:50,323 --> 00:27:53,012 queen's gestation period is longer and that's why because I 602 00:27:53,032 --> 00:27:55,743 before you said 12 hours from the novelization, I haven't read 603 00:27:55,743 --> 00:27:55,944 that. 604 00:27:55,944 --> 00:27:59,497 I felt that, like, my guess was about 12 hours from it. 605 00:27:59,497 --> 00:27:59,917 It was quick. 606 00:27:59,917 --> 00:28:02,903 You know from the first what's his name I can't remember his 607 00:28:02,923 --> 00:28:06,509 name now, but the first guy who got face-hugged, and then Kane, 608 00:28:06,749 --> 00:28:10,005 kane, and then he had the alien come out, you know. 609 00:28:10,005 --> 00:28:15,363 So I liked, I really liked the new kind of xenomorph. 610 00:28:15,363 --> 00:28:19,648 I wish I'm a little greedy, but I almost wish, I wish that we 611 00:28:19,689 --> 00:28:21,416 had seen like other animals as well. 612 00:28:21,517 --> 00:28:24,323 You know, I felt obviously tragically terrible for the 613 00:28:24,363 --> 00:28:29,325 pooch who, uh, who sacrificed for this, you know, and uh, but 614 00:28:29,384 --> 00:28:32,255 I, I like you, I think, like you said earlier, dakota, I really 615 00:28:32,375 --> 00:28:33,457 liked the beginning. 616 00:28:33,457 --> 00:28:38,346 Like I was like oh, oh, oh, all right, you know, and then it 617 00:28:38,405 --> 00:28:40,455 almost feels like all these cool things are happening and then, 618 00:28:40,476 --> 00:28:43,375 once you figure out that she's got that, she's got, you know, 619 00:28:43,414 --> 00:28:46,396 the queen inside of her gestating or whatever, I feel 620 00:28:46,497 --> 00:28:50,042 that's when the movie just kind of like grinds to a halt a 621 00:28:50,083 --> 00:28:53,921 little bit and it almost takes too long, because once I know 622 00:28:53,961 --> 00:28:56,680 the queen's inside of her, I'm like, okay, look, she's got to 623 00:28:56,700 --> 00:28:57,122 die right. 624 00:28:57,122 --> 00:29:01,598 I'm like, okay, look, she's gotta die right, like that's I. 625 00:29:01,598 --> 00:29:02,923 I don't know what happens next, I don't know if she's gonna 626 00:29:02,943 --> 00:29:04,971 come back or anything, but I firmly knew that she was going 627 00:29:05,010 --> 00:29:08,984 to die because I had seen, like I think I guess I had seen an 628 00:29:09,085 --> 00:29:12,636 image somewhere of the little kind of like alien popping out 629 00:29:12,676 --> 00:29:12,876 of her. 630 00:29:12,876 --> 00:29:15,203 You know, and those aren't really that scary like if those 631 00:29:15,305 --> 00:29:17,699 aliens try to bite an apple, I bet you they wouldn't even be 632 00:29:17,739 --> 00:29:20,124 able to bite an apple like they, like the first bite would be 633 00:29:20,163 --> 00:29:23,190 like unsuccessful, you know, like it's not really, I don't 634 00:29:23,210 --> 00:29:26,060 know they would just like straight up that that, like 635 00:29:26,321 --> 00:29:29,096 other mouth that they have, they would just like penetrate 636 00:29:29,116 --> 00:29:32,084 through the thing and just obliterate it fair, fair, that 637 00:29:32,124 --> 00:29:32,424 makes sense. 638 00:29:32,484 --> 00:29:35,137 I just, uh, you know those, those that can't like bite 639 00:29:35,198 --> 00:29:39,185 apples, they don't intimidate I, I don't know, I I did, I'm not 640 00:29:39,205 --> 00:29:41,576 gonna lie to you, I think my parents wait, wait, back up, 641 00:29:41,616 --> 00:29:41,998 back up. 642 00:29:42,278 --> 00:29:44,243 Speaker 1: Is this, is this a personal attack? 643 00:29:44,243 --> 00:29:45,646 Is this a personal attack? 644 00:29:45,646 --> 00:29:47,541 Has my wife been saying something at work? 645 00:29:49,778 --> 00:29:51,041 Speaker 3: my teeth my teeth. 646 00:29:51,221 --> 00:29:54,669 Speaker 1: My teeth face inward, basically, so I have a hard 647 00:29:54,750 --> 00:29:56,051 time biting an apple. 648 00:29:56,051 --> 00:30:00,143 I basically, when I bite into a chunk of apple, it's not a full 649 00:30:00,143 --> 00:30:04,740 chunk, it's two small chunks where my teeth are able to like 650 00:30:04,800 --> 00:30:05,382 grasp it. 651 00:30:05,382 --> 00:30:12,280 Okay, I have a weird jaw, I know so uh dude I did not dude, 652 00:30:12,340 --> 00:30:12,821 I didn't. 653 00:30:12,842 --> 00:30:15,448 Speaker 3: My heart might pick up, my heart might be giving out 654 00:30:15,448 --> 00:30:19,644 jen gives me this information, he goes is there a way that you 655 00:30:19,684 --> 00:30:20,887 can incorporate it into the show ? 656 00:30:20,887 --> 00:30:24,703 I'm like, what if I talk about how the little alien mouth can't 657 00:30:24,703 --> 00:30:25,526 bite the apple? 658 00:30:25,526 --> 00:30:26,227 And she's? 659 00:30:26,227 --> 00:30:28,039 And she's like is he gonna pick up on it? 660 00:30:28,039 --> 00:30:31,352 I'm like I'm gonna go real heavy-handed on this and 661 00:30:31,452 --> 00:30:33,923 anthony's probably gonna be like what are you all talking about? 662 00:30:33,923 --> 00:30:38,079 I was like, but I'm gonna keep going until dac gets, and it was 663 00:30:38,079 --> 00:30:38,981 in just on cue. 664 00:30:39,303 --> 00:30:40,646 Speaker 2: I was like, yeah, no, that thing would just 665 00:30:40,734 --> 00:30:46,465 obliterate oh, let's continue so uh, my second bite. 666 00:30:46,526 --> 00:30:48,489 Speaker 1: My second bite of the apple is totally fine. 667 00:30:48,489 --> 00:30:51,082 It's just a really unpleasant and difficult first bite. 668 00:30:51,162 --> 00:30:54,813 Speaker 3: Okay so all jokes aside, so so what? 669 00:30:54,853 --> 00:30:55,734 Speaker 2: we were saying so. 670 00:30:55,734 --> 00:30:58,419 So what you're saying is that you need one of those small. 671 00:30:58,439 --> 00:31:01,683 Speaker 3: Yeah, you need a chameleon, perhaps I uh, I won't 672 00:31:01,683 --> 00:31:04,367 lie though that scene I was waiting for it. 673 00:31:04,367 --> 00:31:08,942 I was dying to see how she was gonna die and I'm going. 674 00:31:08,942 --> 00:31:11,849 I'm not gonna lie to you the fact that she went like full 675 00:31:11,869 --> 00:31:14,738 golem, uh, also like hey, 90s movies. 676 00:31:14,738 --> 00:31:17,704 Uh, why does everything have to go into like lava, whatever 677 00:31:17,765 --> 00:31:18,426 terminator 2? 678 00:31:18,426 --> 00:31:18,806 But like I I do. 679 00:31:18,806 --> 00:31:19,093 And then when she was falling in I was like wait, are we 680 00:31:19,037 --> 00:31:19,672 really not gonna get it? 681 00:31:19,672 --> 00:31:20,229 Why does everything have to go into like lava, whatever 682 00:31:20,173 --> 00:31:20,376 Terminator 2. 683 00:31:20,376 --> 00:31:20,376 ? 684 00:31:20,376 --> 00:31:20,351 But like I do. 685 00:31:20,351 --> 00:31:23,241 And then when she was falling in I was like wait, are we 686 00:31:23,342 --> 00:31:24,665 really not going to get it? 687 00:31:24,665 --> 00:31:26,421 Are we not going to get it? 688 00:31:26,421 --> 00:31:31,538 And then it happened and as corny as it kind of and cheesy 689 00:31:31,578 --> 00:31:34,262 as it was, I'm not going to lie to you that I love that Like 690 00:31:34,282 --> 00:31:35,023 she's falling. 691 00:31:35,064 --> 00:31:39,910 Speaker 2: Yeah, as I saw that, I was like oh man, the 90s 692 00:31:39,970 --> 00:31:40,611 cheese. 693 00:31:40,611 --> 00:31:43,279 And then she like hugs onto it as she like falls in. 694 00:31:43,339 --> 00:31:45,276 Speaker 1: Yeah, let's discuss that a little bit, because it 695 00:31:45,375 --> 00:31:50,116 almost, in a weird twisted way, looked motherly, you know, like 696 00:31:50,337 --> 00:31:51,824 holding the baby down to your chest. 697 00:31:51,824 --> 00:31:56,467 Obviously, that's the visual that's being shown or showcased, 698 00:31:56,467 --> 00:31:59,064 but is that what she's trying to accomplish? 699 00:31:59,064 --> 00:32:01,700 Or she just doesn't want it to jump off of her, or what are we 700 00:32:01,740 --> 00:32:02,321 thinking here? 701 00:32:02,984 --> 00:32:05,875 Speaker 3: oh, I assume she was just trying to make sure it died 702 00:32:05,875 --> 00:32:10,703 with her, but wow, what a twist if she, like, had some sort of. 703 00:32:10,703 --> 00:32:14,496 I mean, in some weird ways, ripley is probably more 704 00:32:14,536 --> 00:32:19,505 connected to the aliens than any living thing in existence at 705 00:32:19,545 --> 00:32:22,494 this point, because they blew newt out of the water, you know 706 00:32:22,535 --> 00:32:26,583 so yeah that, that that'll definitely roll into the next 707 00:32:26,782 --> 00:32:31,618 one dun dun dun, I'm not even no spoilers he has no idea. 708 00:32:31,799 --> 00:32:32,842 Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't trust you guys. 709 00:32:32,903 --> 00:32:33,284 Speaker 2: I was gonna. 710 00:32:33,284 --> 00:32:34,205 I'm gonna leave it there. 711 00:32:34,205 --> 00:32:35,396 But there's no faith in you. 712 00:32:35,396 --> 00:32:36,779 But you know at least. 713 00:32:37,141 --> 00:32:40,667 Speaker 1: But it's kind of sad that ripley's dead and we we 714 00:32:40,688 --> 00:32:43,261 kind of lose, like sigourney weaver, as like the primary 715 00:32:43,342 --> 00:32:47,095 actress in the series you know I don't believe anything you 716 00:32:47,155 --> 00:32:52,805 people say I will report back to the I will report back to the 717 00:32:52,845 --> 00:32:57,419 listeners next week, uh but I mean she died, I think. 718 00:32:57,439 --> 00:32:58,101 Speaker 2: Hold on wait. 719 00:32:58,101 --> 00:33:01,567 How do you come back from like being fully enveloped in lava? 720 00:33:01,607 --> 00:33:04,383 Speaker 1: when, when the terminator went into lava. 721 00:33:04,383 --> 00:33:05,144 That was it. 722 00:33:05,144 --> 00:33:06,087 We never saw. 723 00:33:06,107 --> 00:33:09,317 Speaker 3: We never saw him again yeah, listen, I don't 724 00:33:09,357 --> 00:33:10,101 trust the company. 725 00:33:10,101 --> 00:33:11,989 Paul reiser worked for the company. 726 00:33:11,989 --> 00:33:12,972 I don't trust them. 727 00:33:12,972 --> 00:33:15,897 All right, the company can do tons of stuff. 728 00:33:15,897 --> 00:33:16,338 Apparently. 729 00:33:16,338 --> 00:33:17,901 The company rules everything. 730 00:33:17,901 --> 00:33:20,683 It's like just the government basically. 731 00:33:20,804 --> 00:33:24,229 Speaker 1: So you know, it's probably call up lex luther, 732 00:33:24,288 --> 00:33:27,057 lana lang or something and she'll show up and be a villain, 733 00:33:27,057 --> 00:33:30,084 I bet you it'll actually be really interesting once we get 734 00:33:30,124 --> 00:33:33,519 to alien earth, because I did watch the first episode of alien 735 00:33:33,519 --> 00:33:37,477 earth and they do discuss the like, the geopolitical landscape 736 00:33:37,477 --> 00:33:42,574 of like how companies rule everything and it's it's 737 00:33:42,673 --> 00:33:45,201 actually it's going to be really like an interesting discussion 738 00:33:45,663 --> 00:33:48,618 after we've seen everything that the company has done and you 739 00:33:48,659 --> 00:33:51,467 know all all the machinations that occur over the years so 740 00:33:51,487 --> 00:33:52,979 like outer worlds kind of like. 741 00:33:52,999 --> 00:33:54,542 Speaker 3: I don't know if you ever played the outer worlds 742 00:33:54,583 --> 00:33:54,903 games. 743 00:33:54,903 --> 00:33:58,703 Uh, I haven't no okay, it's a very, it's very company. 744 00:33:58,703 --> 00:34:01,734 The company is basically owned planets and they're very corrupt 745 00:34:01,734 --> 00:34:07,682 and you have to operate and kind of keep them all faction 746 00:34:07,883 --> 00:34:08,905 happy, essentially. 747 00:34:09,094 --> 00:34:11,983 Speaker 1: I wonder how much of that's based on the Alien 748 00:34:12,003 --> 00:34:14,833 franchise, because I think this is just a hugely influential 749 00:34:14,873 --> 00:34:16,621 franchise at this point in terms of science fiction. 750 00:34:16,621 --> 00:34:21,416 So I think that concept has bled into a bunch of stuff post 751 00:34:21,797 --> 00:34:22,097 alien. 752 00:34:22,097 --> 00:34:24,302 No, that makes sense oh, oh yeah. 753 00:34:24,362 --> 00:34:26,646 Speaker 2: No, it's definitely an influence. 754 00:34:26,646 --> 00:34:30,541 Influential series I mean rich had even brought up how there 755 00:34:30,561 --> 00:34:34,652 was a whole scene in space balls from, from aliens. 756 00:34:34,652 --> 00:34:38,619 So I mean it, you, it, you do definitely see the influence of 757 00:34:38,739 --> 00:34:39,762 it throughout. 758 00:34:39,762 --> 00:34:44,088 I mean, you also see, there's also definitely influence from 759 00:34:44,128 --> 00:34:44,610 Predator. 760 00:34:44,610 --> 00:34:47,963 Like I said, they kind of stand neck and neck those series. 761 00:34:50,775 --> 00:34:54,166 Speaker 1: So I do have to touch on a couple things you guys 762 00:34:54,186 --> 00:34:56,742 have mentioned, and I think, rich, you mentioned both of the 763 00:34:56,762 --> 00:35:00,472 things I want to touch on, the first being the alien itself 764 00:35:00,534 --> 00:35:04,302 coming out of the, out of the dog, the boxer, as sad as that 765 00:35:04,581 --> 00:35:06,144 is the. 766 00:35:06,144 --> 00:35:09,257 There's an assembly cut, like it's another cut of the film 767 00:35:09,820 --> 00:35:14,213 that released in 2003, that has alternate scenes and it's kind 768 00:35:14,233 --> 00:35:15,217 of like a special edition. 769 00:35:15,217 --> 00:35:19,088 Um, the director wasn't involved, but it does have 770 00:35:19,128 --> 00:35:21,855 scenes that didn't make it into the final cut of the theatrical 771 00:35:21,994 --> 00:35:22,277 version. 772 00:35:22,277 --> 00:35:32,083 Instead of a dog in Alien 3 or Alien Cubed, it's a cow, I 773 00:35:32,123 --> 00:35:35,003 promise you, it's a bull, I think it's a bull. 774 00:35:36,239 --> 00:35:37,262 Speaker 3: Logistically. 775 00:35:37,262 --> 00:35:38,344 What are you talking about? 776 00:35:38,344 --> 00:35:42,498 How is it getting around the prison if it's just a giant ass 777 00:35:42,539 --> 00:35:42,960 cow? 778 00:35:42,960 --> 00:35:46,467 That doesn't make any sense, that's stupid. 779 00:35:47,528 --> 00:35:53,360 Speaker 1: So there's a scene in that cut where ripley's ship or 780 00:35:53,360 --> 00:35:56,543 ripley's pod falls into the onto the beach. 781 00:35:56,543 --> 00:36:00,329 Basically To haul it back onto land, they have a bunch of 782 00:36:00,409 --> 00:36:03,744 cattle Just drag it onto the prison. 783 00:36:03,744 --> 00:36:05,282 I don't know why they have cattle. 784 00:36:05,282 --> 00:36:06,557 I don't know. 785 00:36:06,557 --> 00:36:07,943 I don't have the answers to that. 786 00:36:08,659 --> 00:36:10,556 Speaker 2: And it's like how would that have worked when the 787 00:36:10,677 --> 00:36:13,342 outside world was below zero? 788 00:36:13,342 --> 00:36:14,244 Don't know. 789 00:36:15,166 --> 00:36:15,507 Speaker 3: Don't know. 790 00:36:15,507 --> 00:36:22,554 Are we really Was this Was the screenplay for this movie, or 791 00:36:22,594 --> 00:36:25,605 was this just like another movie that they just put aliens in? 792 00:36:25,605 --> 00:36:26,978 I'm very confused. 793 00:36:27,139 --> 00:36:29,144 Speaker 1: All right, I have an answer, a little bit of an 794 00:36:29,224 --> 00:36:29,405 answer. 795 00:36:29,405 --> 00:36:33,378 Not the answer you're looking for exactly, but you mentioned 796 00:36:34,000 --> 00:36:37,648 that it feels like another franchise's movie. 797 00:36:37,648 --> 00:36:40,344 Well, I don't know that it is necessarily another franchise's 798 00:36:40,364 --> 00:36:40,465 movie. 799 00:36:40,465 --> 00:36:41,652 Well, I don't know that it is, uh, necessarily another 800 00:36:41,751 --> 00:36:46,041 franchise's movie, but it's definitely a corporate movie. 801 00:36:46,041 --> 00:36:51,177 Like it's a fox engineered this movie to death, basically. 802 00:36:51,478 --> 00:36:55,106 So they they hired a bunch of directors, a whole, like a whole 803 00:36:55,106 --> 00:36:58,545 bunch of them, whole bunch of writers, and one by one they 804 00:36:58,585 --> 00:37:01,356 just kept spitting out unfinished scripts. 805 00:37:01,356 --> 00:37:03,561 They kept dropping out as directors. 806 00:37:03,561 --> 00:37:09,458 They ended up falling in with this first-time movie director, 807 00:37:09,659 --> 00:37:11,344 first-time picture director, david Fincher. 808 00:37:11,344 --> 00:37:14,217 They did not give him a full script to work with. 809 00:37:14,217 --> 00:37:17,965 So the beginning of the movie is scripted, most of it. 810 00:37:17,965 --> 00:37:19,396 It makes a lot of sense. 811 00:37:19,396 --> 00:37:22,597 The beginning of the movie is fairly scripted, but by the end 812 00:37:22,637 --> 00:37:26,186 of the film you'll notice very little makes sense. 813 00:37:26,186 --> 00:37:28,277 It just kind of rushes to the end. 814 00:37:28,277 --> 00:37:34,251 Well, that's because he quit, maybe after the filming happened 815 00:37:34,251 --> 00:37:37,820 , but during the editing, before the film was completed in the 816 00:37:37,882 --> 00:37:40,731 editing room, he walked out and he's never looked back. 817 00:37:41,561 --> 00:37:45,521 They released an Alien quadrilogy box set of the first 818 00:37:45,561 --> 00:37:48,902 four Alien movies, I think, in the early 2000s, all of the 819 00:37:48,943 --> 00:37:51,804 original directors gave commentaries, except for David 820 00:37:51,844 --> 00:37:52,106 Fincher. 821 00:37:52,106 --> 00:37:53,646 He wants nothing to do with the franchise. 822 00:37:53,646 --> 00:37:57,307 Basically, fox burned him out because started like 823 00:37:57,489 --> 00:37:59,983 micromanaging everything that he was doing to the point where 824 00:38:00,003 --> 00:38:02,811 the movie stopped making sense, um, and they just wanted to 825 00:38:02,871 --> 00:38:05,563 churn out another horror blockbuster. 826 00:38:05,563 --> 00:38:10,052 Basically, um, and that's why it has that that feel, you know, 827 00:38:10,052 --> 00:38:11,884 like that, like corny, uh, 90s camp horror adventure. 828 00:38:11,884 --> 00:38:13,188 You know, like that, you, you would, you've probably. 829 00:38:13,188 --> 00:38:14,873 You know like that, like corny, uh, 90s camp horror adventure. 830 00:38:14,873 --> 00:38:17,360 You know, like that, you, you would, you've, probably. 831 00:38:17,360 --> 00:38:20,710 You know, everyone's seen a couple movies like this at least 832 00:38:20,710 --> 00:38:21,731 , and they're all from the 90s. 833 00:38:21,731 --> 00:38:26,750 And that's why this movie is the way that it is, because, um, 834 00:38:26,750 --> 00:38:31,204 there was clearly love put into it, but not enough to keep it 835 00:38:31,806 --> 00:38:32,909 going to fruition. 836 00:38:32,969 --> 00:38:36,338 Speaker 3: Basically, and and yeah, it's, it's, it's a weird, 837 00:38:36,518 --> 00:38:40,128 it's a weird movie in the franchise for that purpose, so 838 00:38:40,148 --> 00:38:42,561 that that does make a little bit more sense for me, because I 839 00:38:42,601 --> 00:38:49,391 just found it's just felt so yeah, like that's it, it doesn't 840 00:38:49,391 --> 00:38:53,525 flow studios become too involved man like stop 841 00:38:53,606 --> 00:38:54,588 micromanaging people. 842 00:38:54,628 --> 00:38:55,610 Speaker 2: Let them do their thing. 843 00:38:55,610 --> 00:38:59,592 Bro, could you imagine, like, like, if they let him do his 844 00:38:59,632 --> 00:39:01,460 thing, it could have been like a whole other? 845 00:39:01,460 --> 00:39:04,085 Like you know, it could have been a better movie. 846 00:39:04,085 --> 00:39:09,340 So but that yeah, no see, see that I didn't know, I didn't 847 00:39:09,360 --> 00:39:12,911 know that he that, that he walked out and and the the 848 00:39:12,952 --> 00:39:14,797 post-production and it is. 849 00:39:14,918 --> 00:39:18,706 Speaker 1: It is frustrating because it does have the ideas 850 00:39:19,548 --> 00:39:23,918 of a good movie, you know, or at least a good successor to the 851 00:39:23,980 --> 00:39:27,728 first two movies, because each movie has added more lore to 852 00:39:27,827 --> 00:39:31,623 what the aliens are capable of, what they do, what you know this 853 00:39:31,623 --> 00:39:37,277 universe entails right, right and that, like they can kind of 854 00:39:37,478 --> 00:39:40,789 infect more than just humans, you know they can go to animals 855 00:39:41,311 --> 00:39:43,077 yeah, so that's what this one provides. 856 00:39:43,137 --> 00:39:46,668 Speaker 2: So I mean there is, there is a bit that you can take 857 00:39:46,668 --> 00:39:51,081 from this, and while this might not be the best alien movie, 858 00:39:51,141 --> 00:39:55,259 it's not the worst movie that you'll ever see, though you know 859 00:39:55,259 --> 00:40:00,949 , there is still stuff to to enjoy, like the scene where, 860 00:40:01,070 --> 00:40:04,001 like uh, ripley is like trying to run up to the warden and he's 861 00:40:04,001 --> 00:40:07,309 like he's like, oh there, you know, there, there, there's one 862 00:40:07,369 --> 00:40:09,545 here, there's one here, and he's like man, get her out of here. 863 00:40:09,545 --> 00:40:12,275 And just gets like ripped right up into the ceiling. 864 00:40:12,275 --> 00:40:15,347 The scene after that had me laughing. 865 00:40:15,347 --> 00:40:18,628 Like the dude there was, like a dude that was mopping the blood 866 00:40:18,628 --> 00:40:21,208 up, but like he was like kind of like looking at it. 867 00:40:21,420 --> 00:40:22,385 Speaker 1: I'm like dude, I don't care. 868 00:40:22,940 --> 00:40:24,507 Speaker 2: I said I'm not going under that thing. 869 00:40:24,507 --> 00:40:27,547 If there was that dude, there was a guy that was just there 870 00:40:27,568 --> 00:40:28,510 that just got murdered. 871 00:40:28,510 --> 00:40:31,108 That blood can stay there until we kill this thing. 872 00:40:35,059 --> 00:40:36,463 Speaker 1: I felt bad for the prisoners because, like, clearly 873 00:40:36,463 --> 00:40:39,672 they had already all repented, they had all kind of made their 874 00:40:39,751 --> 00:40:46,248 peace with their god and their, their, their lot in life. 875 00:40:46,248 --> 00:40:50,978 They'd, all you know, made a vow of chastity, um, and 876 00:40:51,018 --> 00:40:55,490 celibacy, and, uh, they were all trying to be better people. 877 00:40:55,690 --> 00:41:01,447 And then Ripley comes and she like Ripley's up everything she 878 00:41:01,507 --> 00:41:04,744 Ripley's believes in or not, you know meets back on the menu 879 00:41:04,764 --> 00:41:11,023 boys, the whole, the whole shebang, and it really I mean 880 00:41:11,144 --> 00:41:15,882 obviously like these are not good people, you know, but I 881 00:41:15,943 --> 00:41:19,503 think they've already paid their price, so it sucks that they 882 00:41:19,563 --> 00:41:24,512 are sucked back into that life of crime and immorality that a 883 00:41:24,532 --> 00:41:25,153 lot of them are. 884 00:41:25,153 --> 00:41:25,554 Yeah. 885 00:41:26,280 --> 00:41:31,233 Speaker 2: I did like Clemens and I did like the guy Dylan. 886 00:41:31,233 --> 00:41:34,768 He had, like you know, there's some, were some redeeming 887 00:41:34,829 --> 00:41:35,711 characteristics. 888 00:41:35,711 --> 00:41:41,510 There were a couple times, though, that I remember, when 889 00:41:41,630 --> 00:41:47,766 Ripley is trying to set up a plan and he's like why should we 890 00:41:47,766 --> 00:41:49,532 put our lives on the line for you? 891 00:41:49,532 --> 00:41:54,150 Literally, I was telling the TV I'm, I'm like, dude, it's, 892 00:41:54,210 --> 00:41:58,047 either she does it by herself and you know she dies, or you 893 00:41:58,067 --> 00:42:00,952 could just wait out and wait for it to kill you, like I mean, 894 00:42:01,280 --> 00:42:03,043 your life is already on the line . 895 00:42:03,043 --> 00:42:05,329 It doesn't matter if you're you . 896 00:42:05,329 --> 00:42:08,340 It's like you either wait there for it to kill you or you do 897 00:42:08,380 --> 00:42:10,643 something about it, you know do we? 898 00:42:10,844 --> 00:42:16,070 Speaker 1: do we think that this alien is as intelligent as the 899 00:42:16,210 --> 00:42:20,516 other aliens that we've seen that are born from humans? 900 00:42:20,516 --> 00:42:24,630 So this one was born from a dog and or a cow, depending on the 901 00:42:24,650 --> 00:42:25,351 version you watched. 902 00:42:26,559 --> 00:42:29,166 Speaker 3: How would a cow get through those vents, man, 903 00:42:29,206 --> 00:42:31,652 there's no way, I don't got an answer for you. 904 00:42:32,942 --> 00:42:33,646 Speaker 1: It does exist. 905 00:42:33,646 --> 00:42:35,346 I did watch that scene. 906 00:42:35,405 --> 00:42:38,965 Speaker 3: Would the milk be acid, like if it was a cow, like 907 00:42:38,965 --> 00:42:40,469 is if it's a heifer. 908 00:42:40,469 --> 00:42:41,391 It would be juicier. 909 00:42:41,411 --> 00:42:44,083 Speaker 1: Yeah, like more juice , like just just squeer, you 910 00:42:44,123 --> 00:42:48,934 know so I mean the alien itself looks the same, regardless of 911 00:42:49,056 --> 00:42:52,003 like, uh, whether it was a dog or a cow. 912 00:42:52,063 --> 00:42:54,630 Speaker 2: Basically, I, I think it, just it was it was 913 00:42:54,730 --> 00:42:57,603 quadruped, you know like right, right, right, like all the 914 00:42:57,623 --> 00:43:01,853 xenomorphs look about the same, except I feel like this one 915 00:43:02,260 --> 00:43:05,813 might have been a little bit more animalistic, because I mean 916 00:43:05,813 --> 00:43:09,402 , I don't know man, it, it seemed faster too it did seem 917 00:43:09,463 --> 00:43:09,704 fast. 918 00:43:09,744 --> 00:43:10,905 Speaker 1: Well, I mean it. 919 00:43:10,905 --> 00:43:14,152 It technically would have been faster because dogs are faster 920 00:43:14,172 --> 00:43:14,614 than humans. 921 00:43:14,614 --> 00:43:17,708 I think a cow at full speed is faster than a human. 922 00:43:17,708 --> 00:43:22,072 And this movie you kind of have to treat one. 923 00:43:22,072 --> 00:43:23,840 You have to either choose one or the other. 924 00:43:23,840 --> 00:43:27,706 It's not that if you're watching the version with the 925 00:43:27,766 --> 00:43:31,751 dog birthing, the alien chestburst or whatever, that 926 00:43:31,771 --> 00:43:32,572 becomes the canon in that sense. 927 00:43:32,572 --> 00:43:35,056 If you watch the version with the cow, that becomes the canon 928 00:43:35,637 --> 00:43:36,217 in that sense. 929 00:43:36,217 --> 00:43:39,266 If you watch the version with the cow, that becomes a canon. 930 00:43:39,266 --> 00:43:41,918 But like in the cow version, if there was a dog in that 931 00:43:41,998 --> 00:43:44,045 universe that gave birth to it, it would look a little bit 932 00:43:44,085 --> 00:43:44,367 different. 933 00:43:44,367 --> 00:43:44,929 You know what I'm saying. 934 00:43:44,929 --> 00:43:48,773 Like they the the movie, depending on the version you get 935 00:43:48,773 --> 00:43:51,201 , you have to like, kind of like suspend disbelief. 936 00:43:51,201 --> 00:43:53,625 Okay, in this version, this is what the aliens look like. 937 00:43:53,625 --> 00:43:56,130 In this version, this is what the aliens look like when 938 00:43:56,170 --> 00:43:56,791 birthed from a cow. 939 00:43:56,791 --> 00:44:01,844 But anyway, what I'm what I'm asking is does the human element 940 00:44:01,844 --> 00:44:06,371 make them more intelligent than the quadruped element? 941 00:44:06,592 --> 00:44:09,842 Speaker 3: because it was just killing indiscriminately. 942 00:44:09,922 --> 00:44:14,032 Speaker 1: Like in in the last movie, the aliens weren't 943 00:44:14,735 --> 00:44:17,762 immediately killing, they were like bringing them into the lair 944 00:44:17,762 --> 00:44:20,931 and cocooning them for eventual . 945 00:44:21,150 --> 00:44:25,041 Speaker 2: You know like right insemination from the queen, 946 00:44:25,081 --> 00:44:29,650 basically right, like like there is more of a strategy, you know 947 00:44:29,650 --> 00:44:34,005 , like they, they were trying to essentially like a corral the 948 00:44:34,045 --> 00:44:37,612 people and aliens to like exactly where they wanted them 949 00:44:37,652 --> 00:44:39,135 to be, kind of right. 950 00:44:39,135 --> 00:44:43,385 But yeah, in this one you're right, this alien was just 951 00:44:44,128 --> 00:44:46,467 animalistic, yeah, just it killed, you know. 952 00:44:46,467 --> 00:44:54,271 So I think that, yeah, it does take on some characteristics 953 00:44:54,351 --> 00:44:56,981 from its host which, I mean, it makes sense. 954 00:44:56,981 --> 00:45:00,695 You know, a parasite is always gonna take, you know, some sort 955 00:45:00,936 --> 00:45:04,547 of you know something from the host, right, yeah, I think that 956 00:45:04,568 --> 00:45:08,259 that's what we're seeing here okay, I like it rich. 957 00:45:08,298 --> 00:45:09,121 Speaker 1: What are your thoughts does? 958 00:45:09,121 --> 00:45:09,322 Does this? 959 00:45:09,322 --> 00:45:10,646 Is this one dumber than the aliens from the past couple past 960 00:45:10,646 --> 00:45:11,027 couple movies? 961 00:45:11,027 --> 00:45:12,512 I don't know, because I don't know what its intentions are and 962 00:45:12,512 --> 00:45:13,175 I don't know how that relates. 963 00:45:13,175 --> 00:45:14,659 Is this one dumber than the aliens from the past couple 964 00:45:14,679 --> 00:45:14,800 movies? 965 00:45:15,280 --> 00:45:16,865 Speaker 3: I don't know, because I don't know what its 966 00:45:16,905 --> 00:45:20,367 intentions are and I don't know how that relates to Ripley 967 00:45:21,228 --> 00:45:22,231 having the queen inside. 968 00:45:22,231 --> 00:45:27,166 I don't know if the aliens from Aliens second movie just to 969 00:45:27,206 --> 00:45:33,036 clarify, they have the queen nearby, right? 970 00:45:33,036 --> 00:45:36,708 We don't know how they communicate. 971 00:45:36,708 --> 00:45:41,626 There could be some kind of like ant, like radio waves that 972 00:45:41,668 --> 00:45:44,474 are transmitted to them from the queen. 973 00:45:44,474 --> 00:45:49,384 They're there, there's more of them, so maybe they have like a 974 00:45:49,443 --> 00:45:50,985 hive mind thinking. 975 00:45:50,985 --> 00:45:53,088 That then makes them smarter. 976 00:45:53,088 --> 00:45:57,440 This alien from this movie may have just been out to clear 977 00:45:57,601 --> 00:46:01,853 everyone out indiscriminately so that the queen is safe. 978 00:46:01,853 --> 00:46:03,556 You know like there's. 979 00:46:03,556 --> 00:46:06,822 The easy answer is yes, the human ones are smarter. 980 00:46:06,822 --> 00:46:11,590 The questions I have, because I don't know the franchise as 981 00:46:11,650 --> 00:46:17,298 well, are are these possible pathways to the way we 982 00:46:17,378 --> 00:46:21,567 understand the alien civilization I guess I'll call 983 00:46:21,626 --> 00:46:25,454 it or the their, their bonding, and how that impacts their 984 00:46:26,001 --> 00:46:27,847 intelligence and actions overall ? 985 00:46:28,447 --> 00:46:28,628 Speaker 1: yeah. 986 00:46:28,628 --> 00:46:30,172 Do they have a hive mind? 987 00:46:30,172 --> 00:46:33,364 Do they have a collective uh conscious? 988 00:46:33,364 --> 00:46:34,990 Are they the borg? 989 00:46:35,534 --> 00:46:37,300 Speaker 3: yeah, look, you know, you know something like that, 990 00:46:37,360 --> 00:46:38,204 like that's. 991 00:46:38,204 --> 00:46:40,331 That changes to me a lot. 992 00:46:40,331 --> 00:46:43,362 You know, and we do know, that some insect species kind of 993 00:46:43,422 --> 00:46:47,737 communicate in that kind of way, you know, with not, I would not 994 00:46:47,737 --> 00:46:50,282 telepathically, obviously right , but they, you know, without, 995 00:46:50,503 --> 00:46:55,512 uh, without any kind of any kind of verbal exchange over 996 00:46:55,893 --> 00:46:56,653 expanses. 997 00:46:56,653 --> 00:47:00,530 So these do seem very bug-like. 998 00:47:00,530 --> 00:47:04,277 So I wouldn't be surprised if they have some kind of similar 999 00:47:04,338 --> 00:47:07,706 patterns to the way we would have some insect kind of 1000 00:47:08,047 --> 00:47:09,391 civilization developing. 1001 00:47:09,871 --> 00:47:10,512 Speaker 1: Right, right. 1002 00:47:10,512 --> 00:47:16,088 What are your thoughts on the futuristic, almost 1003 00:47:16,168 --> 00:47:19,215 post-apocalyptic Christianity themes? 1004 00:47:19,215 --> 00:47:24,329 We know that this is like a new religious cult that they've 1005 00:47:24,690 --> 00:47:27,235 like created in the middle of this planet. 1006 00:47:27,235 --> 00:47:28,621 They chose not to leave. 1007 00:47:28,621 --> 00:47:34,192 They chose to almost become monks, extending their own fate 1008 00:47:34,251 --> 00:47:35,815 basically as prisoners. 1009 00:47:35,815 --> 00:47:39,469 Personally, I thought this was a really, really cool idea. 1010 00:47:39,469 --> 00:47:42,461 You know like it's not something that I don't think. 1011 00:47:42,461 --> 00:47:48,739 This is like a weak layer to this cake. 1012 00:47:48,739 --> 00:47:53,146 Basically, I feel like this is a really cool concept in a film 1013 00:47:53,286 --> 00:47:58,514 that almost relays that in a really satisfying way. 1014 00:47:58,514 --> 00:48:00,420 What are your thoughts, anthony ? 1015 00:48:01,121 --> 00:48:06,311 Speaker 2: I feel like it really fits in well with the themes of 1016 00:48:06,311 --> 00:48:11,547 Aliens, Because I feel like there's always been some sort of 1017 00:48:11,547 --> 00:48:15,054 layer of post-apocalyptic feel to it. 1018 00:48:15,054 --> 00:48:18,260 You know, in the first one they go to some derelict ship, you 1019 00:48:18,280 --> 00:48:21,329 know obviously there's some like catastrophe that happens. 1020 00:48:21,940 --> 00:48:27,751 They go back to LV-426, where there's a whole colony that was 1021 00:48:27,811 --> 00:48:28,614 like wiped out. 1022 00:48:28,614 --> 00:48:34,686 So I feel like it fits in well with that theme and the planet 1023 00:48:34,887 --> 00:48:38,626 that they were on was almost like post-apocalyptic in a way 1024 00:48:38,666 --> 00:48:43,063 that they had to be in this prison because where are they 1025 00:48:43,083 --> 00:48:43,885 gonna go if they leave? 1026 00:48:43,905 --> 00:48:48,260 they're gonna freeze, you know yeah and there's no way off of 1027 00:48:48,280 --> 00:48:51,405 the planet other than the supply ship that arrives every six 1028 00:48:51,487 --> 00:48:51,786 months. 1029 00:48:51,786 --> 00:48:56,000 You know so, the fact that, yeah, that they had kind of like 1030 00:48:56,000 --> 00:49:02,074 this polka, this polka, um, this post-apocalyptic cult in in 1031 00:49:02,074 --> 00:49:05,882 a prison that seemed like it seemed run down right, like 1032 00:49:06,483 --> 00:49:10,672 there was like a you know kind of like a warden, but like it 1033 00:49:10,811 --> 00:49:13,686 seemed like it was run by the prisoners anyway, you know, like 1034 00:49:13,686 --> 00:49:18,130 so I I think everyone at that point was on kind of like equal 1035 00:49:18,190 --> 00:49:21,380 footing, it seems yeah there was a warden and there was a 1036 00:49:21,440 --> 00:49:22,061 company man. 1037 00:49:22,282 --> 00:49:25,028 Speaker 1: I think they called him like 86 or something, 85 1038 00:49:25,048 --> 00:49:28,922 because that was his 85 that was his iq, yeah, which is like so 1039 00:49:28,983 --> 00:49:30,143 mean you? 1040 00:49:30,143 --> 00:49:32,407 Know, like he's just he's, he's there to help them. 1041 00:49:32,407 --> 00:49:37,112 Yeah, I, I kind of liked 80, I liked 85. 1042 00:49:37,112 --> 00:49:38,253 Did he survive? 1043 00:49:38,253 --> 00:49:39,434 I forget, did he? 1044 00:49:39,434 --> 00:49:40,416 Did he make it to the? 1045 00:49:41,282 --> 00:49:41,663 Speaker 3: end? 1046 00:49:41,663 --> 00:49:45,329 No, I don't believe so I gotta re-watch it. 1047 00:49:45,329 --> 00:49:48,521 I'm gonna was he the one that got gunned down yeah, because I 1048 00:49:48,561 --> 00:49:51,568 think he tried to like assert his authority oh yeah, wait, 1049 00:49:51,588 --> 00:49:51,949 wait, wait. 1050 00:49:52,329 --> 00:49:58,380 Speaker 1: He randomly his authority. 1051 00:49:58,380 --> 00:49:58,902 Oh, yeah, wait wait, wait. 1052 00:49:58,902 --> 00:50:00,706 He randomly attacks the guy who was like bishop's maker or yeah 1053 00:50:00,706 --> 00:50:01,429 claimed to be bishop's maker. 1054 00:50:01,449 --> 00:50:03,172 Speaker 3: Yeah, he just like snaps and like attacks him he 1055 00:50:03,213 --> 00:50:05,824 attacks him with like a, like a. 1056 00:50:06,367 --> 00:50:07,268 Speaker 1: What did he? 1057 00:50:07,268 --> 00:50:09,856 It was an axe, right yeah, because he's just so. 1058 00:50:10,237 --> 00:50:12,280 Speaker 3: I I think at that moment, if I recall correctly, 1059 00:50:12,862 --> 00:50:17,887 like basically it gets explained that you know they were trying 1060 00:50:17,927 --> 00:50:21,853 to kind of convince Ripley to go back with the specimen inside 1061 00:50:21,893 --> 00:50:25,706 of her and right yeah, he had been defending the company. 1062 00:50:25,706 --> 00:50:29,344 I think that was his breaking point, and you know that's true. 1063 00:50:29,445 --> 00:50:30,268 Speaker 1: Yes, yes, yes. 1064 00:50:31,101 --> 00:50:32,364 Speaker 3: For being a moral man . 1065 00:50:32,364 --> 00:50:35,672 He immediately met his death, seconds later. 1066 00:50:35,672 --> 00:50:36,172 You're right. 1067 00:50:36,360 --> 00:50:38,704 Speaker 1: Okay, man, I got to rewatch this movie because I 1068 00:50:38,744 --> 00:50:41,349 think I did clock out at a certain point where I was just 1069 00:50:41,389 --> 00:50:43,293 like man, this is just unraveling. 1070 00:50:43,293 --> 00:50:49,851 But did you notice that when he attacked Bishop or the creator 1071 00:50:49,871 --> 00:50:52,295 of Bishop, he was bleeding red blood? 1072 00:50:52,295 --> 00:50:55,581 It wasn't the milky substance, raider of bishop. 1073 00:50:55,581 --> 00:50:56,784 He was bleeding red blood like it wasn't. 1074 00:50:56,784 --> 00:50:57,527 It wasn't the milky substance. 1075 00:50:57,547 --> 00:50:58,911 So I'm, I'm, but like he like took a chunk out of off of like 1076 00:50:58,931 --> 00:51:01,483 the back of his head and he was still like conscious, you know, 1077 00:51:01,523 --> 00:51:05,434 like he wasn't like bleeding out on the floor, like he had like 1078 00:51:05,896 --> 00:51:09,507 the the side of his face was like like like his ear was like 1079 00:51:09,666 --> 00:51:12,701 hanging off, like lopsided, like a big chunk of his face had 1080 00:51:12,740 --> 00:51:14,748 fallen off, but he was bleeding blood. 1081 00:51:14,748 --> 00:51:19,509 So I'm, I'm really curious what that was all about, because, 1082 00:51:19,568 --> 00:51:23,282 like a normal person wouldn't be able to consciously stand there 1083 00:51:23,282 --> 00:51:29,652 and still, you know, try to tell, tell ripley to you know, 1084 00:51:29,733 --> 00:51:30,173 come back. 1085 00:51:30,173 --> 00:51:33,306 You know it was a really, it was a really weird scene, but I 1086 00:51:33,347 --> 00:51:35,902 don't know what to make of it I mean, maybe like they, just like 1087 00:51:35,902 --> 00:51:40,652 you know what we need to make these robots more lifelike. 1088 00:51:40,793 --> 00:51:41,521 Speaker 3: What can we do? 1089 00:51:41,521 --> 00:51:47,474 Why don't we make the milk red so it looks like blood to me? 1090 00:51:47,554 --> 00:51:49,101 Speaker 1: actually it's probably not a bad point. 1091 00:51:49,141 --> 00:51:50,489 Speaker 3: I'm not, I don't even think it's that much. 1092 00:51:50,489 --> 00:51:52,880 I'm not even sure if it's that much more complicated than they 1093 00:51:52,900 --> 00:51:54,005 just try to upgrade the sense to be more human, like. 1094 00:51:54,005 --> 00:51:55,248 So they're like, hey, humans don't even think it's that much, 1095 00:51:55,248 --> 00:51:56,592 I'm not even sure if it's that much more complicated than they 1096 00:51:56,612 --> 00:51:57,655 just try to upgrade the sense to be more human, like. 1097 00:51:57,675 --> 00:51:58,478 Speaker 2: So they're like hey, humans don't bleed. 1098 00:51:58,478 --> 00:52:00,987 It's just like every time I see that milky substance. 1099 00:52:01,027 --> 00:52:04,601 It's just so disturbing, like it just looks so weird it's just 1100 00:52:04,681 --> 00:52:06,967 robot juice, all right, it's no big deal, it's just you know 1101 00:52:07,007 --> 00:52:10,724 yeah, yeah, but it's like I don't know, it's just like it's 1102 00:52:10,905 --> 00:52:14,757 sickening, it's like you know, like I said, if they, if they 1103 00:52:14,777 --> 00:52:18,105 had like just like regular, just motor oil in there, it would 1104 00:52:18,125 --> 00:52:22,440 have been like whatever, but for some reason they like make it I 1105 00:52:22,440 --> 00:52:26,951 don't know it's milky, and then they give them like innards, 1106 00:52:27,032 --> 00:52:28,594 that kind of go with it too. 1107 00:52:28,594 --> 00:52:32,385 That like it just looks weird, like it looks worse it's like 1108 00:52:32,425 --> 00:52:34,148 chunky innards where. 1109 00:52:34,208 --> 00:52:39,344 It's like yeah like small little balls on it like these people 1110 00:52:39,405 --> 00:52:41,269 are getting like obliterated in this movie. 1111 00:52:41,269 --> 00:52:44,550 You just see, you know, blood and body parts just getting 1112 00:52:44,592 --> 00:52:47,806 splattered everywhere, but like the milky substance just makes 1113 00:52:47,865 --> 00:52:48,387 me gag. 1114 00:52:48,387 --> 00:52:50,577 You know, I don't know, it's just nasty there's. 1115 00:52:50,597 --> 00:52:52,644 Speaker 1: There's a couple actors that I was happy to see. 1116 00:52:52,644 --> 00:52:56,744 Um, it was really cool seeing charles dance uh, who's best 1117 00:52:56,784 --> 00:53:00,211 known these days for his portrayal of tywin lannister and 1118 00:53:00,211 --> 00:53:04,306 game of thrones, and he wasn't a villain, even though he's such 1119 00:53:04,306 --> 00:53:07,920 , he has such, especially in his old age, he has such a sinister 1120 00:53:07,920 --> 00:53:08,262 face. 1121 00:53:08,262 --> 00:53:12,130 I I was uh waiting for him to be a bad guy like I. 1122 00:53:12,210 --> 00:53:14,449 Speaker 3: I was just like, oh this like I and I, I know this 1123 00:53:14,469 --> 00:53:15,757 is my, I, oh this and I know this is my. 1124 00:53:15,757 --> 00:53:17,405 I've talked about it on the show before. 1125 00:53:17,405 --> 00:53:18,208 This is my bias. 1126 00:53:18,208 --> 00:53:22,005 If I see an actor in one role, sometimes that they're forever 1127 00:53:22,045 --> 00:53:24,784 that guy, so it was. 1128 00:53:24,784 --> 00:53:28,168 I didn't trust him for a while. 1129 00:53:28,168 --> 00:53:30,869 It took a lot for the character to earn my trust. 1130 00:53:31,201 --> 00:53:35,927 Speaker 1: They also had Anthony you might not know this, this 1131 00:53:35,967 --> 00:53:39,885 character from dr who, because he was, he was only in one like 1132 00:53:39,905 --> 00:53:40,686 official episode. 1133 00:53:40,686 --> 00:53:41,527 Um. 1134 00:53:41,527 --> 00:53:46,782 The eighth doctor, paul mcgann uh had a significant portion in 1135 00:53:46,822 --> 00:53:49,168 the early part of the film up until, like, they chained him to 1136 00:53:49,168 --> 00:53:51,764 a hospital bed, uh, because they thought that he killed a 1137 00:53:51,784 --> 00:53:56,052 couple people um oh like, yeah, I remember that guy. 1138 00:53:56,840 --> 00:53:59,547 Speaker 2: He's the one that called the xenomorph a dragon. 1139 00:53:59,646 --> 00:54:03,353 Speaker 1: Yes, he called it, so that was he plays the eighth 1140 00:54:03,440 --> 00:54:09,824 doctor um in a film, like a tv movie for doctor who uh in 97 um 1141 00:54:09,824 --> 00:54:12,865 and that's his only full episode of. 1142 00:54:13,365 --> 00:54:15,047 Speaker 2: As the Doctor. 1143 00:54:15,047 --> 00:54:16,208 He's like the doctor. 1144 00:54:16,208 --> 00:54:22,773 He's like, yeah, the first kind of like modern era doctor 1145 00:54:22,833 --> 00:54:26,315 before we get Christopher Eccleston. 1146 00:54:26,474 --> 00:54:27,596 Speaker 1: Yes, that's correct. 1147 00:54:27,795 --> 00:54:30,197 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I know exactly who you're talking about 1148 00:54:30,197 --> 00:54:30,197 . 1149 00:54:30,197 --> 00:54:36,146 Okay, we also get what's his name there, the actor. 1150 00:54:36,146 --> 00:54:41,545 There's an actor from, uh, the lost world in there also yes, 1151 00:54:41,744 --> 00:54:43,208 I'm looking at the cast list now . 1152 00:54:43,208 --> 00:54:48,402 Uh, pete postlewaithe yes, yeah , he plays. 1153 00:54:48,402 --> 00:54:49,686 Yeah, he's in the lost world. 1154 00:54:49,686 --> 00:54:53,353 He plays like one, one of the the hunters yes, and that's 1155 00:54:53,400 --> 00:54:57,141 probably what I recognized him from like I feel like he kind of 1156 00:54:57,302 --> 00:55:00,670 Speaker 1: disappeared a little bit after the the 90s, but he 1157 00:55:00,690 --> 00:55:00,911 does. 1158 00:55:00,971 --> 00:55:02,963 Speaker 2: I think he was immediately recognized. 1159 00:55:02,963 --> 00:55:05,710 Recognizable because, like I don't know what he's got going 1160 00:55:05,751 --> 00:55:08,731 on with his eyebrows, but those things are bushy it's a yeah, 1161 00:55:08,751 --> 00:55:09,275 it's an incredible. 1162 00:55:09,275 --> 00:55:11,822 They're bushy in this movie and they were bushing in that bushy 1163 00:55:11,822 --> 00:55:13,927 , in that movie an incredible mug. 1164 00:55:14,208 --> 00:55:14,789 Speaker 1: But yeah, there's. 1165 00:55:14,789 --> 00:55:19,338 There's a lot of, uh, good talent in this movie, um, and, I 1166 00:55:19,338 --> 00:55:20,460 think, a lot of good performances. 1167 00:55:20,460 --> 00:55:26,070 I was just kind of sad to see all of them just gunned down for 1168 00:55:26,070 --> 00:55:27,193 the sake of being gunned down. 1169 00:55:27,193 --> 00:55:29,382 Um, it's an alien movie. 1170 00:55:29,382 --> 00:55:31,965 You're not supposed to survive for the most part. 1171 00:55:32,487 --> 00:55:36,831 Speaker 2: You know, unless the script has the words plot armor 1172 00:55:37,353 --> 00:55:39,735 written on the front, then just expect to be dead. 1173 00:55:40,360 --> 00:55:43,228 Speaker 1: I mean Ripley does have plot armor right up until 1174 00:55:43,248 --> 00:55:43,791 the very end. 1175 00:55:43,791 --> 00:55:48,128 We know that she has plot armor just enough so that she can fix 1176 00:55:48,128 --> 00:55:51,574 whatever issues going on on base and then kill herself. 1177 00:55:52,239 --> 00:55:52,400 Speaker 2: Man. 1178 00:55:52,400 --> 00:55:55,858 I'm just saying because I really do like ripley's 1179 00:55:55,898 --> 00:56:00,487 character, like I think that sigourney weaver, like even even 1180 00:56:00,487 --> 00:56:04,882 with this movie you know being the the movie that it is like I 1181 00:56:04,961 --> 00:56:08,994 still like sigourney weaver in this movie she's still the same 1182 00:56:09,034 --> 00:56:12,543 character and it's just a shame that, like, this is the last 1183 00:56:12,603 --> 00:56:16,472 movie that we're gonna see her in in the aliens franchise nice 1184 00:56:16,532 --> 00:56:17,114 try, buddy. 1185 00:56:17,173 --> 00:56:17,976 Speaker 3: I don't believe it. 1186 00:56:17,976 --> 00:56:19,297 I don't believe it. 1187 00:56:19,297 --> 00:56:20,742 I don't believe you guys. 1188 00:56:20,742 --> 00:56:23,916 I want all of you out there to know I haven't cheated, I 1189 00:56:23,956 --> 00:56:27,222 haven't looked forward, but I don't believe these two 1190 00:56:27,342 --> 00:56:30,387 rapscallions that, that, that I think. 1191 00:56:30,467 --> 00:56:33,795 Speaker 2: I think rich just sold himself out, because no, 1192 00:56:33,936 --> 00:56:36,567 you know, like how would you know anything if you haven't 1193 00:56:36,606 --> 00:56:38,572 looked in the future right? 1194 00:56:39,514 --> 00:56:42,079 Speaker 1: I I know dakota I'm gonna need you to lock your boy 1195 00:56:42,139 --> 00:56:45,931 down I, I do, I do think I honestly, I just I just find it 1196 00:56:45,972 --> 00:56:48,858 funny that he's like accusing us of all this just because I made 1197 00:56:48,858 --> 00:56:51,617 I, I decided to like play with his feelings a little bit last 1198 00:56:51,637 --> 00:56:52,704 week it's over. 1199 00:56:52,724 --> 00:56:55,074 Speaker 3: You understand I'm gonna doubt everything you guys 1200 00:56:55,135 --> 00:56:59,496 say about the future of franchises I didn't do that to 1201 00:56:59,557 --> 00:56:59,697 you. 1202 00:56:59,757 --> 00:57:00,420 Speaker 2: That was dakota. 1203 00:57:00,440 --> 00:57:02,588 Speaker 3: This is like this I had a friend when I was in high 1204 00:57:02,608 --> 00:57:02,769 school. 1205 00:57:02,769 --> 00:57:05,978 Okay, gave me to kill a mockingbird and he handed it to 1206 00:57:06,018 --> 00:57:07,601 me and he said he would just okay. 1207 00:57:07,601 --> 00:57:08,614 So he did this for a while. 1208 00:57:08,614 --> 00:57:10,583 He would just like give me books and then tell me a random 1209 00:57:10,625 --> 00:57:11,067 plot point. 1210 00:57:11,067 --> 00:57:14,295 Gave me lord of the rings uh, lord of the rings, uh, flies,

reading it and he goes. 1217 00:57:24,418 --> 00:57:26,976 Oh, by the way, boo Radley gets struck by lightning. 1218 00:57:26,976 --> 00:57:32,976 My friends, I read that book and I intently was like when is 1219 00:57:33,016 --> 00:57:33,737 this plot going to? 1220 00:57:33,737 --> 00:57:35,639 How is this going to even be a thing? 1221 00:57:35,639 --> 00:57:39,023 This book does not lend itself to a lightning death. 1222 00:57:39,023 --> 00:57:41,965 And then I finished a book and there was no lightning death. 1223 00:57:43,050 --> 00:57:44,855 Speaker 1: All right, that's awesome. 1224 00:57:44,855 --> 00:57:47,380 He said he was playing the long game. 1225 00:57:47,559 --> 00:57:48,742 Speaker 2: He had me on a bunch of books. 1226 00:57:48,882 --> 00:57:49,463 Speaker 3: He really did. 1227 00:57:50,670 --> 00:57:51,092 Speaker 2: That's a long game. 1228 00:57:51,092 --> 00:57:52,577 Well, honestly, is it really that long? 1229 00:57:52,577 --> 00:57:55,431 Because, knowing Rich, he probably read those books like 1230 00:57:55,492 --> 00:57:56,072 very quickly. 1231 00:57:56,072 --> 00:57:56,833 That's a good point. 1232 00:57:56,954 --> 00:57:58,815 Speaker 1: Yeah, it was probably over the course of a weekend or 1233 00:57:58,815 --> 00:57:59,115 two. 1234 00:57:59,115 --> 00:58:04,000 So touching on To Kill a Mockingbird, I have to say I 1235 00:58:04,079 --> 00:58:05,641 don't think I've ever mentioned it on this show. 1236 00:58:05,641 --> 00:58:07,943 I think that's my favorite work of fiction ever written. 1237 00:58:07,943 --> 00:58:11,686 I think that's truly a masterpiece. 1238 00:58:11,686 --> 00:58:16,815 I think that is a flawless novel and I will sing its its 1239 00:58:16,835 --> 00:58:21,271 praises more, more than the very end, more than the zon trilogy, 1240 00:58:21,271 --> 00:58:23,155 the what trilogy? 1241 00:58:23,215 --> 00:58:28,684 the timothy zon, uh oh, the timothy zon uh, I think, yeah, 1242 00:58:28,764 --> 00:58:34,697 like personally, it's fair, it's a perfect novel, like it's. 1243 00:58:34,697 --> 00:58:37,402 It's absolutely like. 1244 00:58:37,402 --> 00:58:39,965 I've read it like probably 15

--> 00:59:44,356 I feel like we're at the point. 1271 00:59:44,356 --> 00:59:46,195 I don't know if there's anything else that you all 1272 00:59:46,237 --> 00:59:46,898 wanted to add. 1273 00:59:47,409 --> 00:59:49,599 Speaker 3: I kind of feel a xenomorph rumbling in my stomach 1274 00:59:49,599 --> 00:59:49,599 . 1275 00:59:52,831 --> 00:59:57,081 Speaker 2: Last thoughts on Alien 3, alien Cubes Rich. 1276 01:00:03,269 --> 01:00:03,690 Speaker 3: Anger Disappointment. 1277 01:00:03,690 --> 01:00:04,152 Last thoughts on alien. 1278 01:00:04,152 --> 01:00:05,275 Alien 3, alien cubes rich anger disappointment. 1279 01:00:05,275 --> 01:00:05,657 Uh, no it, it was a. 1280 01:00:05,657 --> 01:00:05,876 It was a. 1281 01:00:05,876 --> 01:00:07,442 I had expectations and they it did fall short of my 1282 01:00:07,481 --> 01:00:08,545 expectations, I won't lie. 1283 01:00:08,545 --> 01:00:13,456 I I kind of expected it to kind of continue in the aliens 2 1284 01:00:13,476 --> 01:00:13,757 vein. 1285 01:00:13,757 --> 01:00:17,304 So I was amped up for like, uh, you know, kind of a 1286 01:00:17,686 --> 01:00:21,474 predator-esque uh, once again just kind of shooting and just 1287 01:00:21,755 --> 01:00:25,842 tons of aliens and and it kind of slowed down and and went back 1288 01:00:25,842 --> 01:00:26,931 to its roots a little bit. 1289 01:00:26,931 --> 01:00:31,621 Uh, which was a little kind of jarring in in terms of how they 1290 01:00:31,681 --> 01:00:32,530 were portraying ripley. 1291 01:00:32,530 --> 01:00:35,284 Uh, you know, they have no weapons, right, like they have 1292 01:00:35,304 --> 01:00:36,268 no real weapons in this one. 1293 01:00:36,268 --> 01:00:38,014 Like the last one, they have all this firepower. 1294 01:00:38,014 --> 01:00:41,300 So it was an interesting different chapter that gave us 1295 01:00:42,932 --> 01:00:47,565 new information about how the aliens propagate their species 1296 01:00:47,905 --> 01:00:49,309 and all that stuff is interesting. 1297 01:00:49,309 --> 01:00:53,097 But like, if I'm reading the movies, out of the first three, 1298 01:00:53,139 --> 01:00:55,202 this is the third I would rate it. 1299 01:00:55,309 --> 01:00:59,911 Speaker 2: I'd rate aliens 2 as my first, aliens 1 as number 2 1300 01:01:00,070 --> 01:01:05,001 and this one comes in dead last yeah, the, the, the first two 1301 01:01:05,061 --> 01:01:11,153 movies are great for their own reasons, you know, and that's 1302 01:01:11,193 --> 01:01:14,860 because we had two different directors for them and they're 1303 01:01:14,900 --> 01:01:17,025 great for you know what they do. 1304 01:01:17,025 --> 01:01:21,554 This movie, you know, yeah, I would put this movie below those 1305 01:01:21,554 --> 01:01:26,083 ones, but I will say, kind of like what you said, it is good 1306 01:01:26,143 --> 01:01:31,902 for at least introducing more lore to the, the alien universe. 1307 01:01:31,902 --> 01:01:36,152 We get that the xenomorph that you know comes out of an animal, 1308 01:01:36,152 --> 01:01:40,083 so it's like that's possible that animals can host these. 1309 01:01:40,083 --> 01:01:46,583 So for that, I do think that it's pretty good for that. 1310 01:01:46,583 --> 01:01:54,161 And, yeah, man, we get a really good last hurrah for Ripley. 1311 01:01:54,161 --> 01:01:55,264 What about you, dakota? 1312 01:01:57,851 --> 01:01:58,836 Speaker 3: See what you did there, anthony. 1313 01:01:58,836 --> 01:02:01,994 I'm not buying it, buddy, I'm not buying it. 1314 01:02:02,610 --> 01:02:09,735 Speaker 1: Alien 3 is a product of corporate greed. 1315 01:02:09,735 --> 01:02:15,974 It's kind of an allegory of itself, because a lot of the 1316 01:02:16,115 --> 01:02:21,693 Alien franchise, weyland-yutani um is the company, the capital c 1317 01:02:21,693 --> 01:02:22,576 company, you know. 1318 01:02:22,576 --> 01:02:26,251 Like that is like overlooking everything that's going on and 1319 01:02:26,833 --> 01:02:30,500 that's basically what happened here fox 20, 20, 20th century 1320 01:02:30,559 --> 01:02:30,820 fox. 1321 01:02:30,820 --> 01:02:33,731 By the way, the, the intro I want to mention, like the intro 1322 01:02:33,751 --> 01:02:37,275 of the movie, where it's a 20th century Fox fanfare and it like 1323 01:02:37,295 --> 01:02:42,481 crescendos into like this instead of like the, it's just 1324 01:02:42,521 --> 01:02:46,652 like and it's it turns into almost like dune music and it's 1325 01:02:46,672 --> 01:02:47,213 just it's. 1326 01:02:47,213 --> 01:02:48,175 It gives me chills. 1327 01:02:48,175 --> 01:02:50,791 It's a great way to start the movie, um, but anyway, 20th 1328 01:02:50,811 --> 01:02:54,605 century Fox, they overstepped their, their bounds with this 1329 01:02:54,724 --> 01:02:58,077 one and it's unfortunate because there's a lot of good in this. 1330 01:02:58,077 --> 01:03:03,175 There's a lot of really, really good ideas and I wish there was 1331 01:03:03,175 --> 01:03:06,362 not necessarily another director, because I think that 1332 01:03:06,382 --> 01:03:09,498 David Fincher has a very unique look to what he's doing. 1333 01:03:09,498 --> 01:03:13,949 It's a very creative lens, especially when he's looking 1334 01:03:14,010 --> 01:03:19,500 through the eyes of the alien, but it's too much. 1335 01:03:19,721 --> 01:03:22,355 Speaker 2: Too much um micromanaging too much 1336 01:03:22,434 --> 01:03:23,117 micromanaging. 1337 01:03:23,317 --> 01:03:24,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, no, I, I agree with that. 1338 01:03:24,920 --> 01:03:28,934 So, all things said, though it's, you know, out of these 1339 01:03:29,034 --> 01:03:33,063 first three films, it still makes it into the like, it still 1340 01:03:33,063 --> 01:03:35,494 makes it into my top three out of these, out of these three 1341 01:03:35,514 --> 01:03:41,284 films, yeah, I'm okay with whatever's happening so far. 1342 01:03:41,552 --> 01:03:42,789 Speaker 2: I'm excited to see what's happening. 1343 01:03:42,789 --> 01:03:44,496 I would hope that it's in your top three. 1344 01:03:45,891 --> 01:03:47,356 Speaker 1: Of at least the first three, you know. 1345 01:03:48,259 --> 01:03:52,757 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, would you say that Waylon and 21st 1346 01:03:52,797 --> 01:03:54,541 Century Fox is interchangeable? 1347 01:03:54,541 --> 01:03:56,981 They like, became the company Century. 1348 01:03:57,021 --> 01:03:58,028 Speaker 1: Fox as interchangeable, they became the 1349 01:03:58,028 --> 01:03:58,210 company. 1350 01:03:58,210 --> 01:04:02,639 I think for the sake of my argument here, I would say yes, 1351 01:04:03,331 --> 01:04:06,735 I think 20th Century Fox is technically Weyland-Yutani. 1352 01:04:06,735 --> 01:04:15,534 They've meddled too much in the affairs of Ellen Ripley and now 1353 01:04:15,534 --> 01:04:21,456 they must pay With poor box office performance and poor 1354 01:04:21,516 --> 01:04:24,434 reception, critically, and we'll see what happens next time. 1355 01:04:25,097 --> 01:04:28,478 Speaker 2: Yeah, man, and killing off their main 1356 01:04:28,518 --> 01:04:29,101 moneymaker. 1357 01:04:29,710 --> 01:04:31,317 Speaker 1: Next time on Dragon Ball Z. 1358 01:04:31,317 --> 01:04:35,782 Join us for episode 134 of Project Ecology. 1359 01:04:35,782 --> 01:04:39,014 Next week we're covering Alien Resurrection. 1360 01:04:39,014 --> 01:04:45,414 It's the fourth film in the I guess it's seven films series. 1361 01:04:45,414 --> 01:04:47,172 Oh, really quick. 1362 01:04:47,172 --> 01:04:50,349 There's actually a little bit of alien news before we close 1363 01:04:50,471 --> 01:04:50,592 out. 1364 01:04:50,592 --> 01:04:55,481 The director for Alien, Romulus , has said Wait, did you say? 1365 01:04:55,501 --> 01:04:56,833 Speaker 3: the next one is called Resurrection. 1366 01:04:56,717 --> 01:04:57,382 Speaker 1: No, no, I didn't say that. 1367 01:04:57,382 --> 01:04:57,867 Wait, did you say, the next one is called Resurrection? 1368 01:04:57,867 --> 01:05:00,795 No, no, I didn't say that. 1369 01:05:01,635 --> 01:05:03,159 Speaker 3: See, I didn't even know the names of the movies 1370 01:05:03,719 --> 01:05:04,400 Resurrection. 1371 01:05:04,400 --> 01:05:05,702 Come on, what do you think? 1372 01:05:05,702 --> 01:05:06,244 I'm an idiot. 1373 01:05:08,210 --> 01:05:09,740 Speaker 2: I don't know what the Resurrection here? 1374 01:05:09,740 --> 01:05:11,010 Yeah, but the Resurrection might be the queen. 1375 01:05:11,670 --> 01:05:12,996 Speaker 3: Paul Reiser's coming back. 1376 01:05:14,971 --> 01:05:17,039 Speaker 1: He was a real, you know, game changer. 1377 01:05:17,039 --> 01:05:22,193 So they just released news and I feel like it's it's important 1378 01:05:22,213 --> 01:05:25,880 to talk about it now that we're discussing alien like lore and 1379 01:05:25,900 --> 01:05:27,713 stuff and you know the directors and all that. 1380 01:05:27,713 --> 01:05:30,920 Uh, the director for the seventh film in the franchise, 1381 01:05:31,742 --> 01:05:35,340 uh, fade alvarez, who directed alien romulus, said that the 1382 01:05:35,440 --> 01:05:39,213 next film, like a sequel to Alien Romulus, has been written, 1383 01:05:39,213 --> 01:05:40,798 but he is not directing it. 1384 01:05:40,798 --> 01:05:45,139 So I'm kind of sad about that, because he had an awesome vision 1385 01:05:45,139 --> 01:05:49,509 for Romulus, like there's so many incredible scenes in that 1386 01:05:49,528 --> 01:05:49,588 one. 1387 01:05:49,588 --> 01:05:53,389 But anyway, back to next episode 134 of Project Ecology. 1388 01:05:53,552 --> 01:05:56,855 We are covering Alien Resurrection, which is directed 1389 01:05:56,914 --> 01:05:58,320 by Joss Whedon. 1390 01:05:58,320 --> 01:06:02,916 Many of you know him from the Avengers films, from Buffy, from 1391 01:06:02,916 --> 01:06:03,798 Firefly. 1392 01:06:03,798 --> 01:06:09,556 He's a not-so-celebrated director these days, but he was 1393 01:06:09,777 --> 01:06:12,503 a and I don't think he was a celebrated director in those 1394 01:06:12,543 --> 01:06:17,940 days either, but in between now and 97, he was a celebrated 1395 01:06:17,980 --> 01:06:19,342 director at some point. 1396 01:06:19,342 --> 01:06:25,021 But anyway, yeah, joss whedon, poor guy, go, I'm going crazy 1397 01:06:25,081 --> 01:06:25,222 here. 1398 01:06:25,222 --> 01:06:28,309 Uh, join us next week for episode 134. 1399 01:06:28,309 --> 01:06:31,422 We're excited to discuss the fourth, uh installment in the 1400 01:06:31,483 --> 01:06:32,246 alien franchise. 1401 01:06:32,246 --> 01:06:34,614 But if you haven't already and you want to check out some of 1402 01:06:34,653 --> 01:06:37,942 our socials, be sure to click down in our show notes
