Thank you very much dude. It was very fun to make as the film is a gold mine for ideas. I'm currently working on a theory video that describes how The Predator may have used echolocation to track prey and spatial map its environment haha! Again, another great movie to delve into with strange ideas.
If Rook knew Ripley shot the xeno out of the module they must had opened the Narcissus. How's the grapling gun still there in the same position in Aliens then ????
He wasn't compromised he was woefully inexperienced and that's why burke most likely hand picked him because he knew when oush came to shove he would give in to Burke's wishes.
Hello my Dude, great job on this video! 🙌😀 While Stephen King's films and this genre aren’t exactly my cup of tea, I always find myself tuning in because your voice and presentation are so calming and engaging. You really know how to keep things interesting, and I always feel entertained no matter the subject. Keep up the awesome work! 🤗👍
@@ENTERTAINtheDUDE Thank you!🙏🤗 Yeah, it's all something you can learn. You just have to take the time for it, and if it’s fun, it comes much easier. There are plenty of resources online, like overlay animations you can add on top of a video. Tons of free stuff out there, you just need to take the time to dig it up. As for the support, my pleasure! When I like something, I try to support it, even if it’s just with a comment and that can mean a lot nowadays. But hey, I don’t have to tell you that, you're an awesome supporter yourself! 😜👌
Other than 'The Mist' most of the Stephen King adaptations are rather bland but I'm actually looking forward to this new version having seen the previous films. I don't have access to the Max Channel. I am concerned the current reviews are not very encouraging. I hope this film isn't a disappointment when I am able.
@@raymondstpaul4913 supposedly there will be theatrical releases only in certain countries but no America. Usually there are other ways to download if there is no other way to see it 😉. If this one is bad, I may just stick to reading books 😆
Yay! Very well done intro ...so this is what you were telling me about! Absolutely amazing and first of its kind! Can't wait for more..... Excellento! Full marks for theatrical aspect! Also very liking the science elements, its chemistry and biology. Right up my street! Prehistoric biology - c.f. carnivorous dinosaurs (like our modern day reptiles) would have to have an extrmely acidic stomach perhaps as much as twice or three time that of ours. By comparing terrestrial conditions, physiology and biochemistry we establish the basal parameters and then can explore further into the realms of exo planets and xeno biology. Wonderful hints given that the science officer has already formed some thoughts and hypotheses as to the (Biomechanical) origins of the Xenomorph and its possible native environs. It would be amazing to deleve deeper, but if one draws some hints (or imagination) from the original Alien movie, what can be learnt from the Space Jocky? The collosal Juggernat - Space Derelict? Both were biomechanical, subtle, and organically integrated. And VERY ancient! Where is the power plant? How is energy generated, stored, transferred? I would bet you a million dollars that the hive material is also acid resitant? Those giant conduits on the mothership could perhaps give us some clues? And what abou tthe copious amounts of that sticky saliva / secretions that seem to overflow uncontrollably from the Xenomorph. Any purpose? Is it a by-product of its acidic metabolism? Is it some form of biological defence mechanism? Some insects secrete glue-like substance that we collect and use as furniture polish and treatment. Since the other questions that relate t o the Xenomorphs accelrated rate of growth, it's ability to canabalise on inorganic materials such as plastics. metals, composit materials would make sense to see that metalic teeth and the inner jaws that can rip right through bodies with ease. The acid can then be used as a digestive juice much like how spiders and other arachnoids feed. Finally, with this creature being substantially mechanical, how would nanites and nanobiotechnology figure in its overall physiology biochemistry and overal its purpose. It is far too perfect to have been an experimental project as something like this in evolutionary biology would take millions of years. Personally not too keen on the black goo (rip off from the X-File) as it is a lazy plot point, and was never a part of the original story line (which I love & respect alot). Also it has never been properly anchored in the lore excep in the most superficial way. Do with it what you like / can as I do belive you have great imagination and scope of vision to perhaps give us better perspective than what we have been given so far in the franchise. This is the sort of additional content that W-Y undoubtedly archives, but has hitherto been absent from the lore (by and large). This truely deserves to be on the Alien DVD Bonus Disc in a future release..... Keep it up Dude!
@@Sci-Fi_Quizshow many many thanks. Just woke up and read through your amazingly thought out points. I know from our previous conversation that you've been very interested in these topics and you raised some great points, especially regarding the derelict composition and the pilot himself. One of sci fi's biggest mysteries that can be open to interpretation by any self respecting Alien fan at this point. Sadly, I had to re-upload the vid due to a piece of video causing copyright issues and when you re-upload, RU-vid hinders it's ability to gain views annoying. But I'm glad you got a chance to check it out and I appreciate your perspective buddy. 👍
@@ENTERTAINtheDUDE These can be annoying, but never lose steam over it. A pain in the butt for sure. The story from the perpective of a science officer, like a log of entries, is pure genius! To be honest, there are so few Channels that are willing to put in the required 'homework', bring in a fresh perspective, keep an open mind, and tell the narrative in such a light-hearted, yet meaningful and captivating manner. I'm along for the ride and once again encourage your efforts as you may well ACE this treatment of what I consider to be one of the greatest Sci-Fi IPs. I agree, there is just so much that can be teased out, and also incorporate the wealth of stuff available in the Alien universe (within reason). I mean one could possibly consider an encounter of the Xenomorph with Bob the Builder.... ROFL LMAO...but that's pushinig it beyond ridiculous. But I think you get my drift?
I'd believe that Burke pulled strings to get someone green and easily molded into a helpful tool, he was just too green. Gorman was totally just a self conscious twit trying to be tough who was nowhere near ready to command against something like the threat they found.
No way was Gorman an architect of these plans he was more likely picked because he was just a green horn lieutenant picked by the company for their personal gains... for instance it was Ripley who advised him the team were under the primary heat exchangers... he replied.. "So... so what", it was actually Ripley as well as Burke who convinced him that any shooting could cause a thermal nuclear explosion.. only then did he order the team to hand in ammo from their weapons; and to add why didn't they just retrieve the face huggers and head back to earth if his end game was solely to retrieve the specimens of alien life? Carter Burke knew what the master plan was 100 percent... my verdict on Scott Gorman is not guilty. Just to add a superb video/upload thankyou!
@@adamski996fugazi8 you are most likely correct and even though it was fun to explore this idea, I agree with the intended narrative also. I thought about the face huggers specimens a lot when writing the theory and my best guess is that they were officially there for a reason and that was to discover what happened to the colonists. Perhaps it would have gone against strict military orders to abandon the mission for company financial gain etc. there's so much to think about with this film that it always leaves you guessing 😁 Appreciate your comment and thank you dude.
I'd like to see a novel accurate version. Especially of The Frankenstein monster. Yes,Its name is Frankenstein. It's victor's son and scientific discovery , so shut up, stuck ups...
@@josebro352 the usual word of mouth from early screenings etc. typical internet and social media rumours I tend to ignore but sometimes turns out to be true.
@@ENTERTAINtheDUDE I get it. Great video. I enjoyed your content. Stephen King himself has seen it and praised it saying it had the feel of 'old Hollywood'. Fingers crossed.
Great video and it's great that you're giving it a chance and an element of positivity tho remaining somewhat skeptical. I think it will be fun and possibly tighter being movie length. But this will never surpass the original in its ability to terrify. I'm nearly 50 now, saw it when I was 6 and I love it. 1979's Mr Barlow has to be one of the best if not the best movie vampires ever.
@@paulkelly5974 well said sir. 6 is a great age to be scarred by these amazing films haha! I think I also started my journey into horror around 6-7. Sadly there is too much mollycudling these days and children are sheltered from these fantastic films 😉
It's not ' avoiding ' any theatrical release. Far from it! It's actually getting a theatrical release in the UK and Ireland from 11th of October, and also in some other countries. Sadly, for whatever reason, the US is only getting it on Max from October 3rd. 🙂✌️
Let's be real - and NOT be false, just because we have the capability to easily b.s. about things anonymously online: most ALL Stephen King adaptations deserve neither a theatrical nor any other release. This has been clear to me since his "authorized"/chosen version of The Shining, in like, '97 or whenever. I was finally done not filtering his content, at that point. And THIS one will be like 99% of the rest. (And yes, Shawshank was one of the best films ever made. Never to be forgotten.)
@@justinklenk I get what you mean. Not to be critical of Kings writing in any way but I do have to then wonder why this is the case? Is there something inherently wrong with the way he writes that ultimately produces elements of cheesiness in the film adaptations? I find this hard to believe personally so maybe he's just been the unluckiest person alive when it comes to his work being made into films. I never read The Shining but I love the film, therefore I have no knowledge on the differences sadly. I have read books like Carrie and although it was still better than the films, I do remember thinking it's fun but nothing too special at the time. But all that said, if Hollywood could pull their finger out and apply their best talent to his adapting his work like they are capable of then the world would be a better place 😉👌
@@ENTERTAINtheDUDE Yeah, hopefully. I'm not going to get too excited though. But, as I say, I'm a fan of the original (and king's novels, and adaptations of said novels) so I'm willing to give it a shot. I recently bought the Pet Sematary prequel, Pet Sematary Bloodlines. It was pretty lame. The cast was decent enough. It starred, Henry Thomas, David Duchovny and Pam Grier, but even they couldn't save it.
@@ENTERTAINtheDUDE King approved of the story, but that's about it. He wasn't involved in it. I remember reading that it was based on a lost chapter of king's (or something to that effect) but that was just BS.😂
@@Grogeous_Maximus the only "made for TV" look I absolutely loved and I think worked so well was both parts of IT, back in the 90s. The scariest King adaptation I ever saw but made more so because it didn't have the usual movie filters or high production. It felt so real that it got under my skin. As a big fan of horror, I miss those horrific nightmares it gave me when I was young 😆
Burke is a complete scumbag, I could totally see him holding something over Gorman's head, whether it be reward or blackmail, to get him to play along. Hell, I think most of what we hear from Burke is a lie, or at the very least a twisted truth. I think he lied to Ripley about her not having grandchildren, too. Just to ensure she has no emotional ties to Earth and could more easily be manipulated into going with him. I think Ripley had to go. The Company needed her gone. She knew too much. Even with having it all branded as PTSD and whatnot, she was a security risk. What better way to make her disappear than to send her on a dangerous mission as another expendable asset?
I find myself in a bookstore every now and then saying "Oh look. Another Stephen King novel, I was unaware of." I think I read his first 400 books but can't even keep up anymore. Lol Prolific output would be a huge understatement. Salem's Lot of course, was among his first efforts. I agree this one, based on the trailer might not be anything special. Interesting that he doesn't seem overly concerned about changes to his story, whereas he so famously claims he's not a fan of Kubrick's The Shining. Fingers crossed, this will be worth a look.
Apparently he's also been in the headlines for making some far left comments on X. I'll be honest with you though, I care very little about all that rubbish haha! I never really understood the criticisms he had regarding The Shining as I always loved that film. I can understand that it must feel a little personal when a director or screen writer decides to meddle with your baby but The Shining is gold standard film making compared to the rest of his adaptions ;)
Back when Salem's Lot (the book) first came out I read it cover to cover. Though, I stopped reading it late at night in bed when I became so creeped out by the sheer horror in those pages I actually only finished it during the day. LOL. So when the TV version came out of course I was drooling for it. As far as I am concerned, I have yet to see one King adaptation in any form better than the original Salem's Lot production with David Soul, James Mason, Lance Kerwin and Bonnie Bedelia. It was so close to the book it was indeed frightening. I am not entirely sure that I am quite so convinced about The Shining, or other shows. I would like to see this one though my hopes cannot grow very much as I have not seen its like so far in the last century. Cheers mate :)
I can understand how you feel. Although I have not read many Stephen King books, just a few and after watching the films. I did get manage to read A Song of Ice and Fire before HBO turned it into Game of Thrones. The show was fun enough and was even thrilling at times, but compared to the books... They kinda butchered it imo.
Thanks Dude. Yes I hope it's not too bad, I love the original obviously. You mentioned From and I'm loving that since it began. Also mabye you seen the Program Chapelwaite Stephen king short story with Adrian Brody set at Saloms lot . I really enjoyed that I have to say. Cheers dude. 👍🇮🇪👍
Yes, From is definitely interesting. The cliff hanger at the end of series 2 was quite something. I did watch Chapelwaite and thought it had loads of promise but the second half was not as good for me. Something diminished sadly but it has some great moments all the way through.
@@ENTERTAINtheDUDE yes the first half of Chapelwaite was better for sure. And absolutely what a cliffhanger at end of from , definitely was shocked. Ps not too long to Nosferatu, can't wait . A bit worried after seeing the Crow but that was director . I think nosferatu will be something special. Cheers Dude. 👍🇮🇪👍
@@garydowdall1762 I might avoid the crow haha! I honestly believe that Nosferatu will be extremely unnerving and that is how it will scare us rather than typical Hollywood jump scares. Very excited for it.
You could be right and I don't mind being wrong when it means we get a great film 😉. The trailer looked a bit cheesy for me overall but perhaps the actual film will deliver.
No it isn't in fact Dauberman has taken more than few liberties with the source material, it's definitely not a faithful adaptation which is fine it's his gig.
What Remains of Us was retitled “The Best Within” no movie has made me as angry as this one did. If they ended the movie three minutes earlier, it would have been one of the best werewolf movies in the last 15 years. Soo much potential and so much going for it.
@@jasonchristian6402 I was gonna watch it this week. I see the reviews are mixed but you say the ending spoils it? This is a typical problem in many horror films and films in general. I'll check it out soon.
@@ENTERTAINtheDUDEdefinitely watch it and form your own opinion. I’ve talked (bitched really) to multiple people and there are mixed reactions. Some prefer the ending that we got.
Dog Soldiers had one of if not, the best werewolf design. Dog Soldiers, American Werewolf in London, and Bad Moon are my top three werewolf films of all time.
@@jasonchristian6402 yeah, there is something about that lean and gangly look with tuff's of hair that made them look like efficient killers in dog soldiers. Definitely far scarier than the wolf man look 😉
h.r. giger said early on that the alien had a life cycle of only days, strange that it would have cocooned itself after ripley blew it out into space , it was already turning darker and dying in the first film, in fact it crawled into the machinery of the shuttle to die, the only reason it came after ripley is because she blasted it with that high pressure gas , it would have been dead soon anyway
I think the water gets a bit murky with the lore after Giger. I love what he gave us but I also respect the directors and writers have to add their own input etc. maybe the cocoon cycle replenishes their life?
Unpopular opinion but I would argue that Gorman did ok and only really made one mistake which was to carry on with the rescue patrol once it was determined that they couldn’t fire the pulse rifles under the heat exchanger- and even that could be argued as - what else could they realistically do?nobody questioned that they shouldn’t be attempting the rescue - that was the entire point of the mission and they didn’t know how much time they had. There was a whole squad of highly experienced marines and not one of them had a better idea. Even at the beginning when Gorman says the control room is secure and Ripley (who is by her own admission “not a soldier”) contradicts him saying it wasn’t secure - well Gorman was completely right. There was only one catastrophic error in the whole film - and that was Ferro and her copilot landing and leaving the loading ramp open.
@@garrym5682 hehe! Yeah leaving the ramp down was a bit like leaving your front door open in a dangerous neighborhood 😧. That was the one thing that could have got the out safety if done right .
@@JJWolford that's fair enough 👌. I'm hoping they eventually make American Werewolf and The Howling sequels so I can also get my full werewolf fix hehe!
@@ENTERTAINtheDUDE The reason for my previous statement is that I like how the Wolfman style of Werewolf is a midground between the classic Werewolf and the human. I just find it more interesting. More like, at least visually, rather than some strange curse, the Werewolve virus simply brings out, both mentally and physically, the more primitive side of humanity.
@@JJWolford absolutely and if done well it can be extremely effective. I think the 2010 woodman touched on it. It certainly looked great at times but went downhill as the film went on, for me at least. Fingers crossed we get a well needed gem.
I am extremely surprised that you have anything good to say about this. Everyone else thinks that its going to be absolute garbage. I will like it though.
@@JJWolford I haven't seen any other opinions from others, so I don't know what they found issues with to be honest. I try to react and analyse in the present and just talk about how it makes me feel intellectually and emotionally 👍. But, the movie could very well be terrible (I hope not) and trailers can be very misleading having not represented a film correctly. I just didn't get any bad vibes from what the trailer showed us and I love the cast. Also, the director has impressed me before. Sometimes I think there is also a sheep mentality online where rumours and hearsay start to float online and every youtuber jump on it without really listening to their own thoughts. We'll see though. Did you enjoy the trailer at least?
@@ENTERTAINtheDUDE Well, of course, no one really found anything wrong with the trailer, and, from what I saw, everything seems good and interesting. It was the images and costume of what was the literal monster that really threw people off and caused them to then hate on the entire thing. I was actually surprised that the title of your video was genuine, considering the amount of 99% hate videos of it. As for me I didn't really care what the monster actually looked like as long as it was creepy and doing some damage. Because I know the Leigh Whannell is going for a more realistic and, obviously, modern approach to his universal monsters movies. So, just because he's doing it in his own style people shouldn't hate on it. Sorry for the long reply.
@@JJWolford dude, I agree with you. I think I saw some image online that has almost psychedelic colours to it and looked silly but I just ignored it as nothing about that image matched the trailer haha! You're right about the director. I still cannot believe how much of a good job he did with The Invisible Man, talk about the term 'A new take'. Well, he really outside himself
I think you’re looking into this a little too much. Lieutenant Gorman was just inexperienced (and typical Hollywood typecasted Junior officer). Even his rank was put on sideways (possibly a way to show how inept he was as a leader).
As bad as Gorman was i had to give him some credit for understanding that he f'd up bad and put his ego to the side and just trying to do what he could to help. Going back for Vasquez is where the bulk of that credit comes from, didn't even hesitate. If he had lived i bet he wouldve become an officer that the enlisted loved, as long as he wasn't to dumb to learn from his mistakes
the town is the fictional Wisborg, because it has details of real Lübeck, and Wisborg was filmed in Lübeck. Again, the castle is really Hunedoara castle, in modern day Romania, in the outskirts of Transilvania, where real Vlad III the Impaler once was held prisoner.
I totally agree Dude that the director and cast of this brings hope for something special. The Pacific Northwest setting puts a different spin on it too. You haven't steered me wrong yet with your pre-release thoughts on recent movies. On a side note, "Strange Darling" is a wild ride well worth taking and only 98 more sleeps till "Nosferatu". HeHe
@@leonardopech2374 oh? I think I saw some crap floating around but I'd ignore stuff like that until we see more. It's difficult to know what's real so early on and some things leaked, are before effects have been applied perhaps. The picture I saw looked terrible, like out of some ridiculous 70s b movie
Good teaser reaction, my dude! 😎 Oh man, that looks creepy. 😱 I can’t watch that, I'd totally freak out. 😳 I’d rather watch Teen Wolf with Michael J. Fox. 🐺📺
If the character is more Human than Wolf then I'm not as interested. Someone needs to due a true sequel to American WereWolf in London. I wouldn't even mind if they used the exact same Kessler WereWolf but with modern effects.
@@Mr.imjussayn a sequel has been written by the son of the original director but that doesn't mean it will be good of course. I agree we need something akin to that film as I haven't felt scared in too many years 😭
It'll take a lot to ever beat an American Werewolf in London. Maybe cause as a teenager I just was in love with Jenny Agutter! But, agree hope for a good modern adaptation.
@@michaelg.1786 hehe, yeah she had class 👌. I don't think this film will come close but I've convinced myself that with this cast and director, it could be something special.
