Tried to watch that new Aliens Expanded doc, I fell asleep and woke up thinking I’d missed about 15 mins cause it was still on. Fuckin thing is near 5 hours long
@gulffire1 i'm checking it in 15 min chunks over morning coffees , should keep me going for a bit
@sdem yeah doing it in chunks seems reasonable, esp after a pasta coma. I think I did do the RoboDoc in one sitting, it’s class if you haven’t checked it
@gulffire1 yeh I had to go to Bristol and back in 1 day in November and robodoc got me thru that minor ordeal nicely
@sdem 😆
@gulffire1 I gave up on that aliens thing , started doing my head in . the doc from that alien dvd box set is miles better
@sdem is that the Superior Firepower one? Yeah it is. I’m gonna finish it but yeah there’s not a lot of variety in it for it to be 5 hours
@gulffire1 can’t remember what it’s called , just remember it being much better made and having way less cheeseball talking head filler shite
@sdem they’ve done one for The Thing!, already looks 100 times better: https://youtu.be/sDIaL9Begao?si=s1GMKpzuOWoFsyRY

@gulffire1 I’ve watched that making of the thing thing prob too many times but yeh I’ll have to check this . No rob bottin tho, is he still on earth? He wasn’t in that other one either tho so maybe just cba
@sdem yeah I noticed that too, you need him in there, he’s funny as fuck
@gulffire1 that bit in the old documentary where he’s on about the spider head thing setting on fire cos it was full of melted plastic etc is proper comedy “thank you very much , mr Bo Teen”
