All right thank you !

And what about these scenes :

For the both of them, I don't know some shots... For example, in the second one, where the Alien put his hand on Parker's face ?

And I have one more question about Alien Redux, before the Lambert's Death, there is a shot where she's testing a bottle but I don't remember it either...
The Chestburster footage is from the mult-angle feature.

The (lovely) shot of Lambert entering the coolant locker and testing the bottles is from the 3hr Beast Within documentary.

The shot of Parker's head being crushed against the wall by the Alien, is from the ALIEN Saga documentary - found on disc #06.

The outtake of the Alien in the corridor, I have no idea as to its origin but I was lucky enough to have found it with someone's help. This, definitely should have been part of the Blu-ray set.

I got that shot from an AVP: Requiem behind the scenes video which is available to download here on AVPGalaxy.  Click here and skip to the 2:35 mark. I clipped, slowed and resized the footage and uploaded it 9 years ago on Vimeo  :) below is the original video I uploaded.

Interesting that the shot they ended up using had the Alien facing the other direction when it stood up.

Thank you very much! It's good to see it in normal speed.

Perhaps the shot was flipped?

As was pointed out today, Ripley climbs down from a non-existent deck to slap Lambert in the deleted scene, so they do what they gotta do.

No, the angle on the shuttle hatch behind appears to be correct from Ripley's POV.

Perhaps the change in position (the Alien's back turned to Ripley) was again to illustrate its unerring ability to sense its victims, also providing continuity with its earlier defensive strike at Parker?

The angle of the entrance to the shuttle is indeed correct in both shots. A screenshot of Ripley's first peek around the wall, followed by her later second:

That's super optimistic in terms of intentionality. But maybe.

A happy accident or intentional? I don't know, but it works quite nicely for the film.

Scott said one of the reasons he had the eyes removed was so you couldn't tell where it was looking, so I don't see why it's optimistic.

Yeah, that's always bugged me too :)
