Now as some folks may know, I do tend to be a bit nitpicky when it comes to some aspects of the franchises, namely the level realism and plausibility in them, which I found lacking in the recent entries.
One of the reasons why I prefer to see Resurrection as more of a parody than a true entry is because of more goofy parts in it, such as Ripley 8 being basically a super soldier.
Later entries like Prometheus and Covenent tended to increase the levels of the required suspense of disbelief as well, too grandiose in its display than keeping things plausible. Then the EU had telepathy and wacky hybrids.
Good or bad, Its all so far removed from how the first film started which was fairly grounded bar a few things. Which brings me to the point of this thread.
And that is that even the first film had scientific inaccuracies and other flaws.
So I would like y'all to list all the scientific errors within the first film and explain your why.
EDIT
I will put one out I am noticing now, though it could have an explanation I don't know.
Maybe this be could be due to repressurizing of the Nostromo atmosphere but there should not be any drafts or things blowing about if there is no air.
