Memory – The Origins Of Alien - New Alien Documentary On The Way

[The Old One]

I'm going to buy it soon, but considering the commentary of people here, I'm not hopeful.

[Corporal Hicks]

We recorded a podcast review last night. So probably be up next week.

[The Old One]

Excellent, I definitely want your thoughts on the documentary.

No big deal. Nothing revelatory here.

Some nice production stills I've never seen before (two from the filming of Brett's death), but that's about it.

Man, there's some crazy shit in those early O'Bannon drafts...

MUTHUR calling Ripley a "little cocksucker" and Parker and Dallas banging each other.

MUTHUR calling Ripley a "little cocksucker" and Parker and Dallas banging each other.

Mother : The ship will automatically destruct in T minus five minutes.

Ripley : You... BITCH!

Mother: You little cocksucker !

Ripley:

Maybe Muthur confused her with G.I. Jane...

MUTHUR calling Ripley a "little cocksucker" and Parker and Dallas banging each other.

Tbf the characters were written to be either sex.

Refer to page 35 of JW Rinzler's, The Making of Alien.

Although to be fair, the Parker/Dallas love scene was later written in by Walter Hill not O'Bannon.  New character names and genders were already locked down by then.

Would probably have been quite a controversial scene to put in a movie back in '79.

Also, quite funnily, Ripley was banging Ash.

Also, quite funnily, Ripley was banging Ash.

Ripley : That's a pretty big risk for a Science Officer. It's, uh, not exactly out of the manual, is it?

Ash : I do take my responsibilities as seriously as you, you know. You do your job and let me do mine, yes?
