I should reach the frontier in about six weeks. With a little luck, the network will pick me up.

It doesn’t mean we’re engaged or anything.
Yesterdays SNW episode made me want to rewatch Aliens, and man, I'm excited. I love rewatching older sci-fi because it's cool to see what they thought the future of technology would look like. I also just really love the marines, and Ripley is amazing, and I love Newt-Hicks-Ripley and Vasquez is just incredibly hot.
All the aliens in the movie—the “facehugger,” the “chestburster,” the humanoid “space jockey,” and the big bad adult—were designed by the surrealist painter H.R. Giger. O’Bannon handpicked him for Alien. He had first met Giger in Paris while working on Alejandro Jodorowsky’s failed Dune movie. He was struck by Giger’s sinister images, and even more so by his actual demeanor. As O’Bannon recalled in The Beast Within: The Making of Alien, Giger offered him opium immediately upon introduction. When O’Bannon asked the artist why he took opium, Giger replied, “I am afraid of my visions.” O’Bannon assured him it was only his mind. “That is what I’m afraid of,” Giger said.
