@rsmon77 I always forget WHY Ripley tries to take it back πŸ€·πŸ»β€β™€οΈ "j/k about self-destruct, Mother!" #FridayThrillerClub πŸ‘Ύ #AlienDirectorsCut

@DrSuzanne Yep. That murder by magazine scene being a case in point.

Also, we forget that this movie is 45 yo (!!!!) and Ripley's character being a woman was kind of radical at that time. (I think Ripley WAS originally written as a male character actually) so all of the other characters' dismissal of her comments takes on an added subtext -- would they have behaved the same if she were a he? #FridayThrillerClub πŸ‘Ύ #AlienDirectorsCut

@rsmon77 oh you mean like right HERE? #FridayThrillerClub πŸ‘Ύ #AlienDirectorsCut
