ALIEN! (1979) This movie had me TERRIFIED!! 

After watching 'Alien' I refused to walk down the aisle in Toys R' Us that had the 'Alien' action figures/dolls on the shelf. That movie was one of the most suspenseful movies I had seen in a long time. All these years later and it still gives me the chills.

'Alien' and 'Aliens' (1986) are the only movies in the franchise worth watching. The groundbreaking sci-fi movie which set the style for the '70s and '80s was '2001: A Space Odyssey' (1968).

After Star Wars was released to unprecedented success studios scrambled to find sci fi properties to film. They all wanted a piece of the action. As a result Star Trek: The Motion Picture was brought to the cinema and was released the same year as Alien (the original TV series was 66-69) What no one bargained for was the genius of Ridley Scott a virtually unknown director at the time with only one movie under his belt. The other thing that made the look of Alien unique was the work of the Swiss artist HR Giger who designed the Alien and the ship it was found in. The impact of Alien was huge and is still felt today. No one had seen anything quite like it. Star Wars itself had a huge impact on Ridley Scott. The used, worn out look of the spaceships and equipment was a far cry from the world of Star Trek and the sci fi that had gone before. He adopted that look for his "truckers in space" in Alien. It has influenced so many movies and video games ever since, it is a truly ground breaking film. And its great to see it still have an impact today. Another thing that was kind of unique at the time (for a film from a major studio) was that there was no star. It meant that you had no idea who was going to die next. And you accepted them in their roles as real people, ordinary folks. And seeing the Aliens life cycle made you believe it could be real. Great reaction I look forward to seeing more. 👍👍

Just found your channel, it's so much fun watching you react, almost like I'm watching the movie again for the first time

How everyone when they see John Hurt go "oh the main villain in V for vendetta" and not "oh the protagonist of 1984" :)

Yaphet Kotto was in Live and Let Die. He was also in The Running Man. Harry Dean Stanton was in Kelly's Heroes, Escape From New York, Repo Man and Red Dawn Veronica Cartwright was in Invasion of the Body Snatchers

Sigourney Weaver is 6 feet tall. Ian Holm was 5’5”

Star WArs came in 1977. In 1978 we already got 3 low budget copies of Star Wars. I kinda liked them but still. Creators of "Alien" wanted to show another side of space, not that bright/colorful like in Star Wars and I LOVE it. Special effects in Alien look much more realistic. The characters look real. I adore this film

If you want another horror film that is extremely tense and shocking - The Thing 1982. It will not disappoint and Kurt Russell is the best.

After seeing this in theaters when I was 14, John Hurt became my favorite actor

Loved your reaction! 👍 Now Aliens! 👽👽👽

Great reaction! I understand the frustration about not killing it as soon as it punched through Kane's chest but if they had, acid blood would have gotten all over everything and everyone and most definitely burned a hole through the hull.

There are hundreds of sci-fi horror films from the silent movies to the 1950s. ALIEN is influenced especially by Planet of the Vampires & 2001: A Space Odyssey. Star Wars was made by a lot of special effects artists from 2001. 20th Century Fox made Star Wars for $18Million not expecting a big money maker so when it became the biggest money maker ever they green lit ALIEN. They made sure the effects would match Star Wars quality and did a rewrite to make it an A picture. The rape and male birth horror is unique to the Alien story. When trying to choke Ripley he sticks a porn magazine in her mouth. The series of Alien movies after this are low quality.

Another good example of new films not doing any kinda research or thought into space travel and science. The new alien movies. They literally go onto an alien planet with no helmet or respiratory machine and just get infected instantly

You might want to check out the original "War of the Worlds" and "Forbidden Planet" from the 1950's for the origins of SiFi horror.

I hope to see a first time reaction to The Thing (1982) directed by John Carpenter it is my number 1 favorite sci-fi horror movie and Alien (1979) directed by Ridley Scott is my 2nd favorite sci-fi horror movie but both of them are on the top of my list as the greatest sci-fi horror movies ever created and I am a new subscriber as well:).

See Aliens !!!

Hi. I am new to the channel, and I liked the reaction.

Hey man, don’t let any of these trolls get to you - you’re doing great for a brand new channel. In fact, been thinking of starting my own so I’m watching and learning too.

A few things, I don’t blame anyone for not thinking about it because they don’t mention it again, but the alien has acid blood. That’s why they don’t kill it when it first emerges. The acid would eat right through the floor and they’d all die. You wondered why Mother allowed Ripley to start the self destruct. The ship isn’t fully automated, which explains why there’s a crew at all. I also don’t think anyone would be comfortable with the self destruct being under the control of the main AI. Nice badge and patch collection you got going in the background. 👍

You mentioned at one point that the people who make movies don’t put in the kind of effort they used to… as in this movie and like when Ewan McGregor and Hayden Christiansen spent hours and hours a day working on lightsaber battles-one of the things that made those look so realistic. That opinion is (perhaps partly) due to the fact that you have not been exposed to the amount of research/training that goes into making other movies. There are documentaries online (and as movie pack extras) that show Keanu Reeves doing all of his combat training for the Matrix and John Wick series, all of the men from 300 doing their combat/exercise routines, and of course, Tom Cruise who trains non-stop to do 95% of his own stunts (including aeronautics, motorcycling, car driving, skydiving, rock climbing, etc). Every industry-specific movie also has a research consultant that advises them on aspects of the script/action/gadgetry. How well any of these aspects is fleshed out is noticeable/debatable, but they *do* in fact put the work in. Good reaction, BTW.

There is always an Android on every space mission that the company sends out. Ash didn’t know about the alien it until they discovered it. He was communicating with Mother in private and then the company that handles Mother changed his directive. His new task was to bring back the life form at all cost. Crew Expendable.

William Shattner is *93*

🔥🔥

0:45 "Die Hard-fan base"! :D This movie is actually "Die Hard" from the antagoniste point of view.

Some people put a watermark over the movie- Usually just a big piece 90% opacity white Impact font that says "COPYRIGHT". Don't worry about don't worry about covering up the picture- 100% of the people watching your video have already seen it. Also, music is a big copyright trigger. If you can find some kind of reverse-karaoke filter that will garble just the music, that will help. Otherwise, do a lot of cuts and/or audio dropouts while music is playing.

Yes!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sigourney Weaver um ícone da história do cinema ......assisti os 4 aliens em sua própria época..... memórias para se Levar para o resto da vida

I have to admit that old thinking was better than the movies we get today. I mean there still enjoyable but it's not the same as it used to be. There are just some better classic eras' then today's movies.

If you want intensely accurate space science couched in a gorgeous story, watch Interstellar (if you haven’t seen it yet). It will restore your faith in what Hollywood is still capable of!

The ship's computer (Mother) the intelligence of a typical computer. It wasn't a sophisticated A.I, that was ASH. So it didn't have thought processes that wasn't programmed into it. IT his the special order 937 as Science officer eyes only but couldn't hide it from the captain if he/she initiated an emergency command override. Which is why Ripley was able to set the self destruct.

Trust me, this movie got plenty of respect when it came out, and for many years after. If anyone sees it today, it gets plenty of respect. Sci Fi and Horror have always been closely tied together. Maybe not as technically efficient as this film, but they have always played with each other. I know you are working to get your videos on line, but I can barely tell what is on the screen in the movie. And I have seen this movie a hundred times.

I love that you could saw the Kick ass woman character, Riley, Sarah, Eve, and I would there put Black Widow, put without been force, like they do with a Rey (Star War) and other female characters,

Yeah, see the difference between them and me I'll pass up my paycheck I'll go get a new job I'm not putting my life at risk for exploring and unknown world and secondly as soon as I saw that face hugger on that guy's face, I would have been gone I would have stolen the shuttle and left with a cat. Alien Movies in (Chronological) Order AVP: Alien vs. Predator (2004) ... Aliens' vs Predator: Requiem (2007) ... Prometheus (2012) ... Alien: Covenant (2017) ... Alien (1979) ... Aliens (1986) ...

Ellen Ripley is THE #1

Watch 2001: A Space Odyssey

The film is too quiet.

Yak, yak, yak, yak, yak, yak, yak, yak, yak, yak, yak, yak, ... Man, you've been talking non-stop since the beginning. More listen, less talk. I'm outta here.

I'm sorry but you're not gonna last long.There's no sound.You can't see anything.This is terrible editing from you.I'm sorry if you're not gonna last because they're gonna get you too but I can't hang in there with you if I can't ever see the movie or hear any sound from it.I just don't want to hear you pontificating and talking.That's boring.Good luck to you though

Do yourself a favor and watch the second alien movie called aliens, but watch the special edition, that is the best 👍
