The discussion of the Alien series of films and the props used in them is the aim, but if it's got Big Bugs and Big Guns, then they are welcome too!

For those who subscribe to the cable/satellite channel AMC (American Movie Classics), James Cameron's series "Story of Science Fiction" debuts tonight focused on an "Aliens" theme. Starts at 8:05PM CST after tonight's "The Terror" episode.

I have no way of DVRing it but I hope they show us some new interesting stuff! The whole series looks really cool!

"From the acclaimed filmmaker behind legendary sci-fi films The Terminator, Aliens, The Abyss, Terminator 2: Judgment Day and Avatar, this documentary series explores the evolution of sci-fi from its origins as a small genre with a cult following to the blockbuster pop-cultural phenomenon we know today. In each episode, James Cameron introduces one of the “Big Questions” that humankind has contemplated throughout the ages and reaches back into sci-fi’s past to better understand how our favorite films, TV shows, books, and video games were born, Cameron and his contemporaries – Steven Spielberg, George Lucas, Ridley Scott and many more who have helped fuel sci-fi’s spectacular growth over the last several decades – debate the merits, meanings, and impacts of the films and novels that influenced them and discuss where the genre — and our species — might be going in the future."

*SPOILER ALERT*

One thing I found very interesting was when Cameron was talking to Scott, and said something to the effect of that Scott made the best movie with the Xenomorph in it. (Personally I love both Alien and Aliens equally, but for different reasons each because they're different types of film, horror and action respectively.)

Again, many thanks to Moosh89 for the post on this - I would have missed it if it wasn't for Moosh. Ooohrah to ashes, Moosh! :)

I thought that too, but then I thought "He can't really say HIS is better without sounding like an ass" haha

And no problem! Glad this post was of use to you!

Roll on, Episode 2!

And in Hollywood, you have to play nice because if you don't, you don't know how that's going to effect your career.

Look at Sean Young or Lee Majors, they caused trouble or were "difficult" and now they can hardly get a role.
