ALIEN was released 44 years ago today. One of the definitive science fiction/horror movies, its influence is still seen to this day. The behind-the-scenes story of how the film was made is a fascinating one...

- @ramanski same here!
I think the original Alien still holds its own against lot of recent films. Less is more, in camera practical effects mostly !!!dee-dubs - @scruff most def. Some amazing set design. Take a trip on the Nostromo.garbage
- I'm always a bit jealous when peeps say they've never seen something like this. Watch on the biggest screen with loudest audio you can find!MrT

- 3 is such a disappointment. One of the proposed scripts was written by William Gibson, and it would have been much better.garbage
- Intergalactic communists fail to weaponize the xenomorphs to combat , and they drift into what's essentially a space station strip mall.garbage
- Meanwhile Weyland-Yutani is also trying to weaponize the xeno DNA to fight the space commies, and accidentally cause an outbreak of hybrid human xenosgarbage

Aliens exist and Trump almost let it slip, says Israeli professor and former space official. Former Israeli space security chief says extraterrestrials exist, and Trump knows about it.
A "galactic federation" has been waiting for humans to "reach a stage where we will understand... what space and spaceships are," Haim Eshed said.
- Trump can’t keep a secret. He’d have let that spill on day one. And also spin it so that the aliens love him the mostGnash

Mummified Chilean skeleton found in Chile turns out to be Chilean and not an alien. Who would have guessed? Speculation raged for 15 years. Only after the skeleton was (probably) illegally sold and sent to Spain was it DNA tested. The stillborn infant girl's genome was completely mapped.
