Curiosidades
Queen Alien was played by Stuart St Paul and Malcolm Weaver, the only two James Cameron would have inside his queen. The actual Queen was built around them, strapped back-to-back. Their neck muscles together swung its head, their feet worked a paddle to swing the tail, the outstretched arms formed the upper arm, and wrists became the elbow joint puppeteering a floppy hand on (4, 2 each) sticks that were rested on a stand. They had earpieces and took direction direct from James Cameron and worked with Sigourney Weaver (no relation to Malcolm) in the big end fight. They were strapped in at the beginning of the day, taken out for lunch, and then not until the end of the day. Comfort breaks were very rarely taken because of the assembly time.

Superior Firepower The Making of 'Aliens': Essential for fans

I've always had a real hit and miss relationship with our Xenomorph friends. You see I think Alien (1979) is very overrated, I think Alien 3 & Ressurection were pretty medicore, that Aliens vs Predator movies were a huge let down and that the recent efforts have been very underwhelming.

However, Aliens (1986) would be in my top 100 movies ever made and I consider it a true masterpiece.

This documentary features fantastic interviews with pretty much the entire cast. Both interviews from the time it was made and in 2003 which gives a nice contrast. It provides excellent production stories and explanations on how the visual effects were pulled off.

Thought it stands at a hefty three hours I think that it needed to be, this way it could be thorough and thats what makes this documentary so watchable.

As a big fan of the movie I naturally found this fascinating and would advise any fans of the franchise to give it a go.

The Good:

Sigourney Weaver comes off really well

Amazing backstage footage

Solid interviews

The Bad:

Nothing springs to mind

Things I Learnt From This Movie:

Michael Biehn is to James Cameron what Johnny Depp is to Tim Burton

The minature effects guy is Ron Jeremys clone

James Cameron is a jackass

Is forcing a 10yr old to watch an 18 rated movie not illegal?
