There is no shame in asking for collection recommendations~~

Some of the most criticized points in "Alien 1" have been considered and changed by Caesar.

For example, the main location of the story, the merchant ship "Nostrom", some people think that it is a mining ship, whether it is a merchant ship or a mining ship, the whole ship does not have a weapon, is it a bit out of common sense?

In the previous life, the version that Caesar saw was unarmed, and in the end, the heroine was forced to make a self-made flamethrower.

As we all know, although the United States is a multi-ethnic country of immigrants, these ethnic groups have merged together to form a nation-state with a unique national character over the past two hundred years.

Martial arts, even belligerence, is one of the characteristics of the Americans, and the number of civilian guns exceeds that of the entire population, and the country allows people to carry guns in the constitution.

There are no guns in the sci-fi thriller made by filmmakers in such a country? This can only be said that Ridley Scott only wanted to make it more difficult for the heroine to clear the level, but forgot that in the case of interstellar voyages, how could the captain allow his ship to be without weapons?

As a result of Caesar's modification, ordinary guns pose little threat to the alien shell, and flamethrowers only use the instinct of creatures to be afraid of fire, and the threat outweighs the damage.

In this way, at least it will not be spit out" In the era of interstellar navigation, the security of the universe is too good, and you don't need to bring guns. and so on.

The second question is a bit strict, when the heroine came back with the alien eggs of the exploration team, she refused their request to enter the spaceship directly, thinking that they needed to be quarantined and reviewed, even if someone in the team was seriously injured, it was also a rigorous, rational, wise and even overly calm attitude or character.

That's right, without this excessive rationality, wisdom and calmness, it would not have been possible for the heroine to become the last new survivor.

But later in the film, the heroine did something out of her for a cat to separate from the other two, which uncharacteristically shattered the character at the beginning of the film.

It seems to be loving for the sake of pets to be born and die, but in fact, the audience is unconvinced.

The heroine has died so many colleagues, and there are only the last two left, so she didn't hold a group, but went to save the cat alone? Even if you want to save it, you will go en masse!

Will characters who ignore their own lives and dies for the sake of pets really be recognized by the audience?

In the words of an anime otaku, the character is so deformed that the audience wants to call the police. The huge gap in attitudes before and after this is not something that can be solved by an unexpected event, which makes people feel that this is definitely not a plot that the same screenwriter came up with.

Film critics can maliciously guess that the heroine is the kind of person who is anti-human.

"You see, in order to take the cat, the heroine began to become super emotional, and even made people feel that she could sacrifice everyone for the cat, but at the beginning she was so cold-blooded and ruthless that she ignored the injuries of the expedition and refused to let them board the ship directly."

Under this comment, you retort that the symbolism of how great the cat is is pale.

So, in Caesar's version, the cat doesn't appear in the script at all.

There is not a single line in the first six minutes of the film, there is no useless shot, explaining the lonely environment and rendering the terrifying atmosphere, which is the skill of Ridley Scott.

Caesar's requirement in the contract was that if the director was Ridley Scott, then the final editing rights belonged to the director, and the editor did not need to be clever.

Yes, in Caesar's eyes, the biggest advantage and disadvantage of Hollywood is that the director loses the editing right and finds a group of editors who think they know more about movies than the director.

They may know more about the market, but they don't understand movies than directors, and at least most editors are not as good as directors.

In many cases, the subject matter or the actor itself is the guarantee of the box office, and there is no need for the editor to inject it into commercialization, and it is the most correct thing for the director to give full play to his talent.

In the film, the spacecraft receives a distress signal, and the members of the expedition team are hugged by the alien dough worm, and when they return to the spaceship, they are resolutely opposed by the heroine Ripley, who thinks that they should be isolated in the outer cabin of the spacecraft for observation before making a decision.

The audience immediately divided into two factions and began to whisper again.

One faction feels that the heroine is doing the right thing, which is the most rational and safest thing to do. The other faction feels that the heroine is too cold-blooded and too unkind.

Caesar and Ridley Scott and Shegney Weaver each glanced at each other, and all three smiled with satisfaction.

This kind of controversy represents their substitution, commonly known as "seeing in". This is one of the essential elements of a good movie, so that the audience can quickly substitute for it.

As the alien hatchlings burst out of the victim's body, it is announced that the film has officially entered the rhythm of the alien. The previous topic of whether Ripley should let the expedition into the inner cabin has also settled.

Everyone, including those still alive in the spaceship and the theater audience, knew that Ripley was right.

In an unfamiliar environment, there is nothing more dangerous than the "unknown".

The most awesome thing about Ridley Scott is that the alien does not show his real body, which scares the crew on the screen and most of the audience off the screen.

It is not until near the end of the film, when the last two crew members are killed, that the head and face are revealed, and they are still half-bodyed.

At the end, when the heroine Ripley starts the engine of the escape boat and blasts the alien away, the audience can see the whole picture of the alien's entire body.

While the audience breathed a long sigh of relief, they were also terrified by the perfect hunter of Xenomorphs.

The shell is hard enough to resist the attacks of ordinary knives and guns, and the pitch-black color can perfectly blend with the darkness, like the tail of a sword and a steel whip, which is more powerful than the mouthparts of anti-materiel weapons, and the green blood is strongly corrosive, combined with cunning intelligence.

Crucially, it doesn't have eyes.

In his previous life, Ridley Scott thought of this story, but did not design the alien monster. So the result of asking the master to help was that the other party designed a classic natural hunter like an alien.

When Ridley Scott curiously asked why the object had no eyes, the designer replied, "Eyes are windows to the soul, they betray the mind of their master, and if the hunter doesn't have eyes, then no one knows what it's thinking, and no one can predict its movements." That's what a nightmare should be. ”

In this life, Ridley Scott also asked Caesar about this, and Caesar shamelessly stole other people's designs and the original words of the designer.

"Eyes are windows, they are betrayers, and if a demon doesn't have eyes, then no one knows what it's thinking, which just deepens fear and confusion."

This answer was a deep shock to Ridley Scott, and it was a conversation that he began to confront Caesar.

The film mentions the "Weyland Company", a large conglomerate with a deep and complex background, which does not even take the United Earth Government into account.

The cyborg in the spaceship is the product of the company, and the audience also learned through the mouth of the cyborg, that the Weyland company has long known about the existence of alien creatures, and they want to collect alien samples to make biological weapons, which is equivalent to making a trap for the protagonist and his party to contact the alien, which is a preliminary test of the alien's ability.

The Kaisa version of the end credits is a capture device that ingests a Predator's ship into the interior of the ship as it passes by the Alien before the black screen drops.

In less than ten seconds of footage, the audience not only saw the iron-blooded ship, iron-blooded masks and weapons, but was even surprised to find that the alien could still live well in a vacuum.

Until the end of the subtitles, the audience was quietly reminiscent, and after the lights were turned on, there was a long period of warm applause.

Looking at the expressions of the audience and the media people, Caesar knew that his act of brushing up his reputation had succeeded again.

There is no way, if you want to mix in the entertainment industry, you have to brush up your reputation.

You graduated from the directing department of USC, and you take a script or a copy of a short film and tell the producer that you want to make a great movie, and the other party will politely say good luck and send you out. The impolite ones will directly shout "Get out!" ”

When you say you're Caesar Lee, the author of "Garfield" and "Transformers," the promoter of Unplugged, the shareholder and director of MTV, the writer of "Alien," "Groundhog Day," and "Heroes of Time," they'll serve the most expensive coffee, then carefully review your script, and have a meeting to discuss the viability of production and the film's market prospects.

This is the value of prestige in the entertainment industry, but prestige comes from the box office.

Caesar was quickly smiling as he walked through the frenzied fans to the stage in front of the screen, facing dozens of reporters at the bottom of the steps.
