Aliens (1986) - 40th Anniversary: Power, Command and the Making of Ripley - Eagle Eyes

David and Stewart (Doove71) mark forty years of James Cameron’s Aliens, a foundational text for Eagle Eyes, with a spoiler free briefing followed by a full spoiler deep dive into the film that turned a monster movie into a war movie. David traces the making of Ripley through the forms of power at work in the film, arguing that she is the ultimate badass because her strength makes the people around her more capable. Stewart brings his own military experience to rank, competence and mission command, from Gorman freezing to Hicks stepping up. They also weigh the theatrical cut against the special edition, run the film through the Lorehounds frameworks and score it on the Rounds on Target scale before wrapping up with community feedback.
