It was another Alan Dean Foster novelization of a script. I knew about the deleted scenes long before we knew what deleted scenes were ...But I also pictured the Queen as a giant spider with crazy white hair... or something...

In the movie it 'sort-of' looks like Hicks is spraying down and then upward when he rolls away from the alien that charges him... I just take THAT as the mercy killing vs. the desperate attempt to save the kid while forgetting his teammate was only snatched a few minutes prior
Exactly! Man, you know your stuff! It's wonderful to find someone who actually knows what they're talking about! ;)

i've been a fan a long time. i was too young for the Alien theatrical release but got my folks to rent it for me for my.. probably 10th birthday... maybe 11 depending on what year it hit VHS... 81 or 82 i think....??? somewhere around that. i even had a copy of Eerie's Voyage of the Space Beagle that i read as "basis for alien" ...meh... i was sort of obsessed. At least i got to see Aliens opening night and then when that came to VHS i was working in a video store and pre-orderd a copy... only $89.99 at release... i watched that tape non-stop, even played it in the store most days (it was a little mom/pop place) Still have the official movie magazine and souviner book along with lots of the newer stuff (those original ones are still my favorite) |

Thanks VR- I went out and picked up some grates and pipe from homedepot... I think I'm going to try and make a mini dio spot for the Aliens/Predator figures... The SDCC display was so dang cool that I feel they need something extra... I'm going to dig out the Mcfarlane guys to try and build on the "infestation" piece

I think one of the reasons that Alien, Aliens, and Predator series are some of my favorite movies is because the stories had a lot of originality. Something that is sorely missing these days since most movies are a remake of a remake or sequels/prequels and aren't developing a lot of new ideas.
I find myself going back and watching a lot of movies from a few decades back and discovering some great stuff. Stuff like Brain Scan and the Blob (with Shawnee Smith). Other stuff I'm checking out like The Howling, Needful Things, Toolbox Murders, etc. I just needed something fresh or at least new to me.
