The movie
Show notes
We are jumping back to 1986 to talk about James Cameron's Aliens, because sometimes one Xenomorph just isn't enough. Ryan has watched this movie deep into the double digits and loves the retro-futuristic world-building, while Deric is just here to appreciate the sheer terror of an action-thriller on rails. We break down the incredible practical effects, the claustrophobic dread of Bishop crawling through that tiny pipe (I can’t even think about it *shiver*), and why the real villain of the movie isn't the Alien Queen, but Weyland-Yutani's corporate greed. From the legendary Bill Paxton to Sigourney Weaver fighting a massive alien queen in a mechanical loader, we are covering all the reasons this sequel holds up perfectly today.
