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!

First I got to drive Duke and Hudson, a really interesting team of horses. So when I introduced my team to the first tour group, I couldn't help but think about ol' Bill Paxton. I mentioned this to my group and it turns out there was a fan on board. Later, he saw me parked outside the ticket office and came over to talk to me. He was telling me about how his favorite part was with "those automated machine guns in the corridor." He then asks me what they're called, to which I replied simply "Sentry Guns." He then said something about them having thousands of rounds. I of course felt compelled to correct him that they had 200 rounds each. He was duly impressed that I knew this.

Just thought some of you guys might find this interesting.

Also, I found it highly amusing to be able to tell my horse to "Secure that s***, Hudson" in my best Apone impersonation.

Sorry! :D

It reminds me of the Dr. Who Live event that they had on TV the other night. They had a Hard-Core Fan on, and he kept getting the facts wrong! He wanted to shoot himself after getting the second thing wrong. :lol:

I only know cause I wrote a Sentry Gun simulator, and a Quiz. I even know it takes 33.33 seconds to empty it :D

Now I guess I don't feel so bad.
