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!

Yeah that's great Harry...

(Guess you don't check page 2 often eh?)

Aliens Direct TV commercial


But now we have a better quality version to watch on YouTube. :wink:

I think it is a case of filming new footage for the close ups (meticulously recreating the loader frame), and (for long shots) dubbing over the audio of the original film at a point that more or less matches the new dialogue of the commercial.

The Star Trek commercial is my favourite. :wink:

Star Trek HD

Just saw this last night as I was TIVOing through Hell's Kitchen. Ripley in the Power Loader was not what I ever expected to see amidst the Claritin and car commercials. It was a most pleasant surprise :D

No I haven't.

That was hilarious! Thanks Fraz!

Must be several years old (maybe decades) as Kirk and Scotty still look relatively good. Methinks around 1989-90 after ST:V came out.
