The difference between "Alien" series and "Alien" series
Concepcion 2022-05-20 21:57:53
Speaking of this series, it is easy to think of the "Alien" series of similar themes. From the appearance of alien monsters, it seems to be quite similar. However, the "Alien" series and the "Alien" series are basically different. At least the fluent plot and the linking plot design in the "Alien" series are far less than this series. The difference between the form of alien warfare and the form of earth defense warfare, and the fundamental biological difference between organisms and synthetics that parasitize and kill the host make these two series far apart. It may be said that the approximation in form and the difference in concept have marked the difference between the superior and the inferior of the two series of films. At least the "Alien" series has far fewer flaws than this series, and this series is at best a childish popcorn sci-fi movie of Beauty Dew Point + Monster Transformation.
Extended Reading
-
Dan Smithson, Empath: [holding a picture of Sil and John Carey] we found this in the living room. She liked him.
[Gives the picture to Press to look at]
Preston Lennox: Well, not enough. Can't see any more of that than we did on the video monitor.
Xavier Fitch: He didn't get a very good picture of her, did he?
Aide: Criminologist say there's no evidence of semen in the hot tub water.
Preston Lennox: [sarcastically] well, maybe she took it with.
Dr. Laura Baker: So she probably hasn't managed to mate.
Dan Smithson, Empath: We interrupted her.
Xavier Fitch: Yes, I think we did. Give me something I can use.
Preston Lennox: What have you come up with lately, Fitch?
Dan Smithson, Empath: She's not scared of us, that's for sure.
Xavier Fitch: We're all beat. We'll go back to the hotel and get some rest.
Sil: [reading Fitch's lips] Tomorrow night we'll go back to the club.
Xavier Fitch, Sil: Stake it out.
Preston Lennox: She's not stupid. She's not going to repeat herself.
Dr. Stephen Arden: There's no point going back there. It provided such a poor specimen.
Dan Smithson, Empath: I'm not so sure.
Xavier Fitch: Look, she's been in the city two days. It's what she knows. And I'd rather try the club than sit around the command center reminiscing about how close we got.
Dr. Laura Baker: [in car driving back to the hotel] she would make one excellent biological weapon. If someone out there thought we were some kind of galactic weed that was going to spread through the universe.
Preston Lennox: So what you're saying is that she's the cure and where the disease.
Dr. Laura Baker: That's well said.
Preston Lennox: "Baker, Laura, 1735 Meander Drive, Simi Valley, California" that's you right?
Dr. Laura Baker: Last time I checked.
Preston Lennox: What do you do for kicks out there in Simi Valley?
Dr. Laura Baker: Oh, pine for guys like you.
Preston Lennox: [smiling] That's what I thought
[they both laugh]
Dr. Stephen Arden: [inside the hotel] So anyone hungry?
Dr. Laura Baker: Uh no, thanks. I'm beat. I'm just going to try to get some sleep. Good night.
Dr. Stephen Arden: Yeah, good night.
Dan Smithson, Empath: I'll have something to eat with you.
Dr. Stephen Arden: Thanks, Dan.

Aide: We block the road in both directions. The press is going apeshit. We've got to tell them something.
Xavier Fitch: Well you tell them what you want. You just don't tell them the truth.
Preston Lennox: I don't buy her showing up at the club like that. Too damn convenient.
Xavier Fitch: Well, seeing is believing, or don't you trust your own eyes?
Preston Lennox: Get back! Get back get all these people back!
Dan Smithson, Empath: Fitch. Fitch! It doesn't feel right.
Aide: Sir. We found what looks like a severed thumb in the pocket of one of the doors that got ripped off.
Dr. Laura Baker: Here, let me see that.
Dr. Stephen Arden: She may have caught it in the door trying to get out.
Dr. Laura Baker: We'll get it over to the lab. If it's hers, it'll check out. It'll be genetically identifiable.
Xavier Fitch: It's all over, everyone. Tomorrow you can go back to your lives. Congratulations congratulations on a job well done.
Preston Lennox: [as Fitch walks off] just like that, huh, Fitch? I don't think so.
