Totally forgot about swinging Alien in Stanton death scene

That was one of those elements that took you out of the normal horror/monster formula. No scary music and no real indication that what you were looking at was the monster. Loved it.

and the chains and water just made it all the more creepy...wonderful filmmaking...

I think that's more the ' pouncing ' scene, but great image still

hahaha ya, but dude, look, he's going for the chains right there. Trying to swing over to them. I Love it. Or may be you are right and he's at that moment where he jumps off of them.

His tail is coiled up while swinging i think

He looks very well-endowed in the image above. LOL Anyways, yes this was a great scene...the absence of a score during the chain swing scene is excellent!

I also love the buildup to that when the water droplets are pat-pat-patting on Brett's (Stanton) trucker hat and he takes it off to let water run on his face. The tension is fantastic.

wasn't this bit by mistake? when you see the alien come down on wires

You are referring to this scene, right? [img]http://img51.imageshack.us/img51/721/dangling.jpg[/img] I find it spooky, too, and also the absence of soundtrack, the dripping noises, the chains, very effective. I also thought I forgot about that scene until I realized it wasn't in the theatrical version, but just on the director's cut. But in the end I am happy that it wasn't put in the theatrical version, as it would have spoiled much of the mystery around the creature, while it is a great addition to the director's cut, as it is eye candy and a nice tribute to us fans. Though my question is "That thing is huge, how could Brett miss it?"
