Let’s talk about business first. It may be because Ridley Scott’s film technology was not very developed when he shot the first episode, or because Ridley Scott prefers to create a horror atmosphere rather than specific horror shots. Anyway, James Cameron did make the second episode better than The first episode is much more horrible. For example, when the female pilot turned her head and suddenly found that the alien was sitting behind him, such as the alien victim who suddenly opened her eyes, such as when the little girl said childishly, "I can't leave now, right?", such as in the last moments of the movie The huge "alien" that appeared... made my scalp numb with fright.
Talking about the connotation, I was surprised to find that the movie has a strong feminist taste. We saw that all the male warriors who appeared in this movie did not survive, whether they were brave, cowardly, smart, or stupid. of. Of course, two female fighters also died, which just shows that they are too masculine, too strong, lacking feminine tenderness and motherhood. (The pilot is not obvious yet, the brave and mighty Vasquez is comparable to all the movies in the movie. Other characters are tough!) Our protagonist Ripley is a character who has both male strength and feminine tenderness and motherhood. (The little girl Newt is also a role arranged to reflect Ripley's motherhood to some extent. ). What about the role of Newt? You know that she is the only one who survived the aliens who attacked those interstellar immigrants, and she was also the one who found a way to escape for the Ripley group.
. The robot Bishop, who always behaves quite bravely in battle and finally "sacrifices heroically", is obviously very important to James Cameron personally. If the robot in the first episode is the source of all tragedies, thus expressing what Ridley Scott, the director of the first episode, wants to express here is a certain kind of human fear of modern technology, then James Cameron obviously believes that modern technology can bring Human beings are more happy than tragedy. James Cameron has always believed this, and his film road has been striding forward along this line of thought. (For example,
I like this ending: The survivors are going to return to Earth, Ridley told Newt that they can sleep peacefully now, and don't have to worry about nightmares anymore. At this time, the horror that once permeated the whole film no longer exists, leaving us only a calm and peaceful atmosphere, and of course a sense of security.
