Why?
Why was this film allowed to be made? Whjat the hell was going on, I’m really confused about the whole thing.
Help??
To make some more money out of the Alien franchise.
Basically, I think the scientist were experimenting with combining alien & human DNA.
My biggest problem with that flick was how the fuck would a clone of Ripley have an alien in it? If I kill a person by jamming an armadillo through his chest, then clone that person, there won’t be an armadillo in the clone’s chest.
It can be explained through some “creative” handwaving, like maybe the alien adjusts the DNA of its host to also have its DNA, but IMHO that’s hardly better than saying a wizard did it.
Yeah, I’d agree this is the biggest plot hole.
Am I also right in thinking that there was a sex scene with Ripley and an alien?
And why did the alien that had the eyes kill the queen??
I thought the queen was its mother and Ripley was the grandmother…or am I a fool?
Not quite. There’s a scene where a xeno drone is carrying Ripley to see the queen, and Ripley “embraces” the creature… 'cuz she’s its “mommy”. Ugh.
This movie is fucked in so many ways. The scientists are smart enough to put all the Alien cages on the outside of the ship, so everyone’s safe in case the Aliens get out, right? BUT they don’t think about the acid blood, and the Aliens escape into the ship anyway. What the fuck? These guys were supposed to KNOW all this shit! That’s WHY they put the cages outside the hull!
At one point in the movie, Jonner walks up to Ripley and says, “Hey, Ripley, I heard you’ve met these things before.” It’s a stupid setup for Ripley’s stupid “I died” line… but the biggest problem is that he HADN’T!! Nowhere in the movie does Jonner hear that!
Then there’s all the forced crudity. “Who do I have to fuck to get off this boat?” It’s out of character, wooden, pathetically delivered, and just ruins any flow the movie has.
Let’s see, what else can I bitch about this movie? Oh, yeah, they killed off the coolest character FIRST, that pissed me off. The stupid “reflect gunshots off light fixtures” trick that the black dude does in the mess hall. The fact that the Aliens are constantly secreting so much goo that you’d think they’d die of dehydration within twenty minutes. The fact that all the soldiers on the ship are utter incompetents… why even HAVE a security detail if all they’re supposed to do is run away in the event of an emergency?
Then the stupid albino Alien… what the fuck? That thing was unimpressive, and yet we’re supposed to believe it to be some Uber-monster. Its “birth” is ridiculous… the “womb” growing out of the Queen’s crotch is just a few flaps of baggy skin. How come the Alien growths - which were stated to be secreted resin in the second movie - move and pulse just like Zerg buildings? Stupid, stupid, stupid.
This movie tried to be all three of the previous movies at once. It tried to have the “cool group” thing that the second movie had, the “witty” dialogue… Jonner was clearly meant to be a ripoff of Hudson. Why was a top-notch military ship all rusted and dilapidated and falling apart? A deliberate rip of the third movie.
And let’s not even talk about how stupid the albino Alien’s death was.
The “director” of this “film”, one Jean-Pierre Jeunet (check out his Jerry Lewis impression here), could neither speak nor understand much English. Why the producers thought this wouldn’t be a problem beats me. I suppose this way he wouldn’t know what godawful dialog was being spoken…
