Aliens- Combat Drop Alternate Version

Фильм және анимация

This is a re-edited version of the combat drop sequence from Aliens, using an unused track from composer James Horner's score for the film. The alternate music begins around 2:30. In order to make the music fit, I had to cut out Hudson's rant about superior firepower, but everything else is the same.

    I just realised, Michael Biehn's character 'Hicks' in Aliens has a thing for Ripley, who is roughly 60 years his senior, as she was in Cryosleep for 57 years . Michael Bien's character in Terminator, 'Kyle Reece' has a relationship with Sarah Connor, who is 40 years older than him as he went back in time. Dude has a serious thing for cougars!!!!

    what I loved about this movie is that although Ripley is the main character, they didn't over-focus on her. They allowed all the supporting side characters to develop their specific arcs. We got to see each character's attributes, attitudes, and personalities. As the movie progressed, Ripley's role progressed. Really good bit of storytelling.

    The only reason Vasquez died in the movie was she ran out of rifle ammo. She probably would have held out and survived (a long with Goreman) if she had additional ammo. When she had to pull out the pistol, she got in trouble (still killed a few though before her and Goreman blew each other up).

    This is a film is one I regularly have to come back to and watch. Absolutely one of the best films to have blessed us. Every actor suits their role perfectly, they couldn’t have done a better job. The fact that this came out in 1986 is wild to me. Not only did it leave a lasting impression on me, but it did so on the film industry too. RIP bill Paxton

They are literally all likeable and it has nothing to do with the fact of their gender or color, but because they are relatable people/just human. You don't have the forced "oh look at me, I'm a strong woman!" "Look here! I'm a person of color!" It need not and should not be said when it's organic/ natural, not contrived and forced.

    A lot of these cliches do go back to Frank Herbert's "Dune" from 1965 & Robert Heinlein's "Starship Troopers" from 1959. For example, the space marines & mecha, like the ones you see here in Aliens (and other movies such as Avatar 2009 & computer games such as Halo) basically came from Starship Troopers 60 years ago. Star Wars got many ideas from Dune. Alien/Aliens is just one of many movies that has helped propagate those old sci-fi ideas, tropes & stereotypes that were born in the 1950's & earlier.

As a Marine he knows there's no guarantee of sleep until the mission is finished, so he uses the drop as a power nap session. At the point where he says they're all "in strung out shape, but stay frosty," he seems to be the only one still alert. He even advises Ripley to get some sleep as well, telling her she'll need it. I laugh everytime at the line "Somebody wake up Hicks" but I think that scene shows how experienced a Marine Hicks is.

    All that running and yelling when they load on the drop ship - and drop - pretty much - no. The impression I've gained is that they're mostly quiet and mentally focused on their jobs. Hicks falling asleep - it probably the most realistic. The chatter by the air crew is OK. The other thing is - they show these guys chambering rounds before they board the drop ship. That is typical Hollywood. You would not want to chamber a round until you were about to land because an accidental discharge could have a negative effect on the drop. How negative would depend on what it hit - but - putting a hole in a space ship when you don't have enclosed helmets and space suits - would not be a good thing. Being in an APC you might not have a penetration of the drop ship - but - if the round didn't penetrate the APC - it might just bounce around inside it - which would also not be a good thing. .

    @@hoppy6437 I didn't mention that this is a very good film. So - my remarks about it's inaccuracies are just for the purpose of pointing out when something is Hollywood rather than real. You're always going to have problems with reality in a movie like this - because - it's in the script that the unit will be destroyed by the Aliens - the only question is - how are they going to do it. As good as this movie is - and I really liked it - this operation was set to fail from the get go - when they only assigned one squad to it. That - and the idea that there was no crew to their space ship was absurd. Here - the Aliens are represented as an unstoppable force - when they were not really all that tough. On the Nostromo - in _Alien_ - their acid based blood was a problem in that it could eat through the ship - but then - all the crew had to do was don space suits and blow the thing to hell. Then patch up the holes. But - that is common place among monster movies - in that it isn't so much that the monster is a total bad ass - as the humans it is killing are stupid. .

    True.. I wish to one day see them pick up right after Aliens, with Ripley, Hicks and Rebecca in the lifeboat (at this point I would be fine with recasting, even though I wanted to see Sigourney to kick ass one last time again so much. (Thanks Ridley!) But there are no movies of this quality nowadays. They took time to suck you in (remember the first few minutes of ALIEN 1979? No words for a very long time, just camera panning, tasting every carefully weathered surfaces, hard and cold, soft and hot). The director achieved visual masterpiece (I guess, thanks Ridley!), a piece of cinematographic art. I have the feeling Hollywood does not care about art anymore. The movies nowadays are products to be consumed by customers, their content strictly defined by marketing department, people infected by politics, business strategists.....all but true ARTISTS. People with unending passion for their work, exceptional talents who crave to show their stories in a new and bold way. Not to satisfy KPI's or shareholders, but for the sake of creating art, part of culture which will be remembered for decades.

    Great movie, great cast. Favorite bit is where Ripley tells Hudson the little girl survived longer than that (you know the scene). Hudson replies 'Why don't you put her in charge'. Okay, writers give you the lines, but the actor has to make them work. Paxton was a talent. RIP.

    Bill Paxton was a superb actor. Calling something underrated is too cheap nowadays, it's lost its meaning so I will instead suggest that his performances were often underappreciated by audiences. My guess is that his fellow cast members felt very safe and comfortable knowing he would bring his A game.

    I was 16 when I saw this film for the first time. Now I’m 52 and I still love it so much that I have to rewatch it at least twice a year. Alien and Aliens are two masterpieces that pass the test of time.

    I was maybe 10 years old when I watched this movie for the first time. Back then I didn't know I will always come back and watch it again, now I am 33 and probably will watch when I will be 53.
