MemberOvomorph12/8/2011i think it be cool if after prometheus came out on dvd it comes with a documentery of the alien univeres, like if it was actually a real documentry telling us about the xenos and SJs and their origins. Pluse mention a lil of the movie canons in it. It be cool how it could give us some good insight on things in the universe that we may have missed or havent known yet. idk just a thought

From the very 1st images of the Derelict ship this thing Grabs Ya !!!
That is without any doubt the single best damn Alien Film Documentary I have EVER seen.
It took what is it now?, almost 33 Years, But I learned more from watching this than anything else I have read, seen, or listened to in all that time.

MemberOvomorph12/9/2011You have to scroll down to the right video which is called Alien Makers IV
It is by leaps and bounds the best thing I have ever seen on the making of Alien.

MemberOvomorph12/10/2011No problem.
They all seem like a real down to earth bunch of people, i liked the anecdote that one guy had meeting Ridley at the urinal lol
Theres also 3 other alien vids and some links about the model making process on that page.

MemberOvomorph12/10/2011Yes, I checked it all out, but my "fav" was the Documentary you drew our attention to
The first guy up is soooo cool and {was that Syd Mead?} anyways wow, what a piece of Alien Treasure that entire thing is man.
I loved the story about how Hurt having a glass of wine in one hand and a smoke in the other while they were doing what he called "Open Heart Surgery with animal organs" on his chest...LMAO...and the other story about how Ridley was in the bathroom and the guy walked in and said..."Good Morning Governor", and what he would say, how hard he would laugh, if you called him that today...and it just goes on and on, seeing all the stuff they used to build the sets and seeing the derelict in his back yard...OMG, this thing is by Far the Best "Documentation" I have ever seen on any of the films.
Or how about Ridley driving out of the compound one night at 11:45 PM. and seeing all of the crew leaving at the same time who were not suppose to be paid for staying late so he goes in the next morning early and blasts the suits until they relent and agree to pay every single one of them for the hours worked?
Amazing "shiznit" !!!
and the best part is...it's all the true story of how they made it happen

MemberOvomorph12/15/2011Lol when I was in High School for my Junior Thiese (not sure I spelled that right lol) I wrote a 22 page paper on The Alien Universe including their life cycle, interactions with other spieces, social structure, characters of note and even weapons used in the Universe and what they did and how they were most effective......needless to say I was the dork in the corner reading a book through HS lol but I got a A on the paper and a note from the teacher saying I need to get out more lol.

MemberOvomorph01/21/2012This is BY FAR...The Single Best damn documentary you will EVER see on any of the Alien Films !!! [url=http://www.zen171398.zen.co.uk/]AlienMakersIV[/url] When you get to this page scroll down till you see in big GOLD letters "ALIEN MAKERS IV". YOU can just watch it and not download it by clicking in the middle of the video window itself. The Torrent works too though if you want to keep a copy of it.
