Aliens Coming to “The Movies That Made Us” Season 3!

Posted October 05, 2021 2:31 PM Corporal Hicks 28 Comments

The Movies That Made Us is a Netflix series that takes a look at the influential movies that effected not only the industry, but the people who grew up watching them – hence the name of the series! In the past they’ve explored Back to the Future, Jurassic Park, Ghostbusters and Die Hard. With Season 3 approaching on the 12th of October, it’s now Aliens turn to be highlighted!

Back in August, a trailer for the upcoming season was released on Netflix showing that Season 3 would include A Nightmare on Elm Street, Aliens, Coming to America, Friday the 13th, Halloween, and Robocop. I’m unable to embed the trailer from Netflix, but if you head on over to their website you can view the Season 3 trailer over there!

We don’t know who exactly will be featured on the Aliens episode, but from the trailer we can see that ADI’s Alec Gillis and Mark Rolston (aka Private Drake) are involved. Season 3 of The Movies That Made Us is currently scheduled to air on the 12th of October.

"Boring" lol, CDL's documentaries remain pretty entertaining to me honestly, this' just a watered down version. I don't know if people's attention spans have degraded that much.

it had to be there was a lot to fit in considering the making of documentary of aliens was nearly 3 hours. There's not many people on netflix who would want to sit through a boring making of documentary of a 35 year old movie.

I watched a chunk yesterday but was too tired. Just felt like the other few of the series I'd seen. Was nice to see some other bits of the early days that I hadn't seen get much focus outside of Rinzler's book get some attention. Was also really nice to see Rinzler was involved in this too.

they gotta make it entertaining for everyone not just for Aliens fans.

Apparently "everyone" are kids with ADHD, if the pace of the editing was anything to go by.

I will agree that the tone of this episode was really hard to stand. But if you stick with it you'll get some great tidbits and insight about the making of the film that I don't think was covered so much before. Also it's always great to see everyone and how they are doing. Granted most of the info was well tread but after sticking through it till the end I found it quite worth it.

There was also a very touching segment about Bill.

I tried to get through the Aliens episode but couldn't stomach the narrator, sound effects, and terrible quick cuts. Seemed like nostalgia-porn trash to me.

The price was other tape in the picture, the Burton one, being on repeat. It's cute but holy shit am I sick of it at this point.

I'm early 30's, I'm just tired all the time. I always assumed you were a year or two younger than me?

I thought there was a good few years between us? Or have I frisky overestimated your age?

I only got around to seeing it a few years ago, but I was about the last hold out of all my friends and family.

It's the one you think it is.

Definitely had an impact on people my age growing up.

We're about the same age and I've literally never seen it.

Elf?

Please tell me it's a mildly obscure 80's/90's shocker that google refuses to cough up for me and not the one I think it is...

I wish it was just full of misinformation.

It's a pretty enjoyable show, however I don't think there is much left to uncover about the development of Aliens

No, but a high profile rehashing of it all is a good thing for the casual viewer.

I've only watched a couple - the Jurassic Park one, I remember in particular - and enjoyed what they did. I'm looking forward to giving this a watch too.
