Watched Alien for the first time last night. Available on HBO. It is so well done for 1979.


Ridley was arguably the best director in the world from Alien through Gladiator.

not a big Sigourney Weaver fan, nor a fan of female leads who try to be tough. But Ripley is probably one of my favorite action characters. Weaver was excellent in that role. Tough and badass but not unbelievable or overdoing it- like Beth in Yellowstone.

Take out Blade Runner and Thelma & Louise (and Gladiator, if you absolutely have to):

Legend
Someone to Watch Over Me
Black Rain
1492
White Squall
GI Jane
Gladiator

I love Alien, but we're all just going to let this comment sit there?
