Flaws of Alien. Not joking

There are good reasons to have a scuttle procedure in place.

I'm brainstorming as hard as I can to find good reasons.

A self destruct option with Parker and Brett onboard? I don't know about that.

Bruh there's like a dozen steps, they're both far too lazy to go through that for nothing.

Yeah, but it's all written down.

"I wanna talk about the bonus situation."

"Oh, would ya knock it off Parker"

"B*tch, I will blow your @$$ up"

"Right"

But then he couldn't go home and party.

And they'd have five minutes to reverse it once they realise they can't go home and party.

I imagine it'd be preferable to scuttle a freighter and its payload if it was malfunctioning and on a collision course with a planet or space station.

The part where the Alien is bouncing around outside the shuttle was prob my biggest flaw.

'Main in a suit' aside, I don't get the 'bouncing around' thing.  It hits the shuttle, 'bounces' once then locks its tail onto the engine and drags itself in - which I always though looked awesome.

Me too. I always dig the alien's shuttle exterior scenes - especially how gracefully it sweeps past the camera when it's blown away. Art.

It's laughable. Unfortunately.

It's freakin' Alien. Allowances will be made.

Agreed. The problem is there isn't any access inside the thruster for it to gain entry back into the shuttle. And it wasn't trying to hide, so what was it trying to accomplish?

To expend the crew.
