I was thinking back to Goldsmith's music today and there's something about it that not only gives the feel of a nightmare but a child's nightmare. Like it's a science fiction version of a dark...

I was disappointed that Marc Streitenfeld didn't do the sequel but I thought Jed Kurzel's music was very good. The thing I liked with Streitenfeld was that he was being a bit experimental with it...

Just listening to parts of the score again.

The scene disturbed me greatly anyway, as I've said, but the music for the Chest Burster scene is incredibly astute in that it has an almost – almost –...

And, as a character,

Call must have been directly influenced by Ash, given the concealment of her being an android. I don't recall the finer details of Resurrection as much but I suppose it's also...

Talking loosely about my reaction to the film with Luis this week made me think further into the behaviour of the android characters:

I do think that his making Blade Runner compounded the problem, if you can call it a problem. A bit of cross-pollination's gone on.

And Ash as well – I love Ian Holm. I wish we could have heard a bit more from him about Alien. What there is in his autobiography is gold though :).

Unsurprisingly he was brilliant at playing Walter and David and keeping them separate.

And I liked it how he gave some clues that something wasn't right with Walter at the end :). What is it he...

I actually expected the teaser scene with David and Shaw to be in the full film but all we got was the flashback to the "genocide" sequence.

I'm still wondering why the black goo, which usually...

I do like the way it's all going back to Ash in Alien, and his admiration of the design behind the monster. In retrospect it makes you wonder how much Ash and the company knew about David's...

Given the backlash after Alien 3 it is somewhat surprising that they decided to kill off this new heroine. Ripley's death and sacrifice is at least heroic and there's something positive about it....

It was inevitable from what Scott said on the Prometheus commentary. The minute she puts David's head back on, "he's deadly". But as I think we mentioned further up this thread, she didn't have any...

I don't want to go into a lengthy diatribe about Alien: Covenant but, after seeing it recently, I'm convinced that they showed us too much before it was released. We pretty much knew who was going to...

Well,

I don't think she does, fully. I liked the way Noomi Rapace reacted as Shaw to David's "kind at heart" comment as if Shaw was mindful not to be seduced.

I think as well, Shaw doesn't have...

Yeah, it's excellent. The only thing that is a bit of a shame with the current extras and commentaries is that you don't get anything from Yaphet Kotto or Ian Holm. Holm does mention filming a little...

Yeah, they had a lot to play with. Was it his first commentary – the one where he's on his own? I like that one the best.

Yeah, it was definitely believable as a living creature. I like the retcon though, I think the Engineers are a great creation.

I don't remember him saying that but Dallas also says it in the film as they're examining the carcass. I think it's "He's grown onto the chair".

Yeah, it's like the writer has come to the science fiction genre completely fresh, with hardly any useful research, and has no awareness of the kind of shorthand that is available.
