What a classy woman Sigourney Weaver is. Totally down to earth and without any of the vanity that often accompanies big stars. Ripley wasn't just the first female action hero, but possibly the greatest action hero in the history of movies. That's an incredible achievement and something to be really proud of.
I believe it’s the cinematic value. Alien is a masterpiece of a movie as an art form. In any aspect. It’s fascinating at every watch. Aliens is extreme sci fi fun and an action-horror “sigourney weaver powerhouse”. Extremely satisfying!
She’s the best. Aliens, Ghostbusters, and Galaxy Quest are some of my all time favorite films. And I forgot about Dave! That’s a great movie that I think has really been overlooked. Ving Rhames (1 year before Pulp Fiction), Kevin Klein, Sigourney Weaver Kevin Dunn and Frank Langella. I think Jake’s interviews are fulfilling a vicarious dream of wishing I could not only meet my heroes, but actually ask them thought provoking questions!
Alien 3 is a great film! The dramatic nuance which focuses on despair is a perfect conclusion to Ripley's arc, and this series would not have worked with a fluffy, Hollywood ending.
Considered even better than the original. Same goes for Terminator 2. Cameron was a real unique phenomenon those days. Sadly we got way less movies than we wanted from him until the mentality of making classics went off. After Avatar1... What the heck happened? Same goes for Paul Verhoeven who went back to Netherlands after very succesfull Hollywood career.
I have yet to see a sci-fi movie as cool and as scary like it. My aunty was a big fan, I remember watching it with her 30 years ago. It doesn't get old.
I just got the movie Alien last month. I am going to watch it for Christmas with my mom. I finally get to see her character Ripley. She's definitely a classy act.
She wanted to be dead (Ripley) multiple times but Hollywood is unable to create a strong female character withouth creating a bland "strong female character . Im saying this as someone who watches Alien series almost every year because every movie has something with 1 & 2 being masterclass work.
This is the issue with Hollywood: You canot re-create true talent in female action leads, has to come natural, Sigourney Weaver is not just hte queen but the absolute EMPRESS of Sci-Fi, hence why movies with a lead actress often fail. Tbh it's tragic and sad how they try to...force young actresses to force such an heavy load on top of 'em
@@SailorMoonFriends Yes? I heard quite the opposite (a few years ago though), that she would like to be in a Ripley movie without aliens, bringing the character even more to the forefront.
In the 80's ran into Segoney on 72 st. I called-out, "hay Sagoney! She stopped and looked at me, and I said, " Aliens was great!" She smiled and walked away! Aliens is a fabulous Sci Fi flick which I recommend; enjoy it!
She was way too good at turning the questions into movie promotion. I realize that’s why she’s there, but she just so effortlessly says “great question” then sidesteps to making it about this new film particularly
No offense but 95% plus percent of the Viewers only watched this for the Alien franchise movies. Jake why did you waste out time with Hilde and other dribble? Aliens related talk didnt even start until over half way through. Cut to the main topic Jake,

When I was younger...she actually became my celebrity crush. I was totally in love with ripley and the style

They don’t give her enough credit she was perfect in the movies
she got robbed of an oscar for aliens !
My favorite was Alien from 1979 but I also loved Aliens. There's is just something about Alien that stuck with me forever.
I believe it’s the cinematic value. Alien is a masterpiece of a movie as an art form. In any aspect. It’s fascinating at every watch. Aliens is extreme sci fi fun and an action-horror “sigourney weaver powerhouse”. Extremely satisfying!
@@rayrecordings I recently watched the first Alien again and it blew my mind. It gets better every time I watch it.
She’s the best. Aliens, Ghostbusters, and Galaxy Quest are some of my all time favorite films. And I forgot about Dave! That’s a great movie that I think has really been overlooked. Ving Rhames (1 year before Pulp Fiction), Kevin Klein, Sigourney Weaver Kevin Dunn and Frank Langella.

Lets cut the crap she made all her fame off the Alien franchise.
Jake you made me happy this morning. When I saw this interview posted, i audibly "eee' 'd in joy. Sigourney's just such a wonderful person.
It is a crime she doesn’t have an Oscar for Ripley. Full stop period.
Literally made my morning. Equally a fan, and her role in Aliens made me realise the power of cinema. Love!
ALIENS is a legendary movie!
Amazing at 73.
Still so interesting and smart, and what a great face and voice! Love Sigourney
Just made me watch the basketball Ripley scene yet once again.
That scene alone makes Alien Resurrection's existence acceptable.
Good interview of a lovely person. Thanks!
Icon. She's my fancast for Granny Goodness... hopefully in future Superman movie (screaming at you WB/DC) !!!
She is such a legend. Wish she filmed a better sequel of "Aliens" than "Ali3n".
Alien 3 is a great film! The dramatic nuance which focuses on despair is a perfect conclusion to Ripley's arc, and this series would not have worked with a fluffy, Hollywood ending.
@@nebularain3338 Well jeah, if you love depression
Aliens one of the best Sci-fi action sequels of all time

Ripley Best female protagonist ever ✅
Badass ✅
Strong ✅
Carries franchise ✅
You make life sweet Sig. You give blessings and happiness. Thank you for your existence.
I just got the movie Alien last month. I am going to watch it for Christmas with my mom. I finally get to see her character Ripley. She's definitely a classy act.
You most definitely deserved everything that you received from your amazing acting !!! Good for you !!!
I love your interviews
I wish she starred in more movies she is still fantastic.
Great movie and great actors=Sigourney Weaver!Ripley are the best of the best!❤❤
God I love this woman, whatever age she is.
I was getting worried that title was pure clickbait until the last 30 seconds.
Disney NEEDS to get Sigourney for one last RIPLEY movie. Give her a proper send-off. MAKE IT HAPPEN.
Preferably starting after Aliens, and binning 3 and 4
That would be great, but Sigourney has said her time of performing Ellen Ripley has come to a close.
@@joerogers540 Yeah she recently said that. Saw news :-(
@@SuperMarcelWorld I thought it was sad. She was awesome as Ellen Ripley.
She wanted to be dead (Ripley) multiple times but Hollywood is unable to create a strong female character withouth creating a bland "strong female character .
Im saying this as someone who watches Alien series almost every year because every movie has something with 1 & 2 being masterclass work.
God damn, what great questions!
She looks great after all these years. Go ripley
Wow !!! I got nothing but Big hugh Respect for you!!! I think that you put a lot of other actors too shame !!!
off topic, these are really good questions
I wish she return to Alien one more time I’m sure she would slay she looks amazing.
This is the issue with Hollywood:
You canot re-create true talent in female action leads, has to come natural, Sigourney Weaver is not just hte queen but the absolute EMPRESS of Sci-Fi, hence why movies with a lead actress often fail.

The only qestion I want to ask is: Why did she agree to kill of Newt and Hicks? She clearly had the power to refuse this decision.
Video starts at 3:50
You know I would to see a sequel to Alien: Resurrection.
Sigorney Weaver has aged well, it's hard to believe she's 75.
why she is not in alien romulus?
She said that she was done playing Ellen Ripley and retired her character.
@@SailorMoonFriends Yes? I heard quite the opposite (a few years ago though), that she would like to be in a Ripley movie without aliens, bringing the character even more to the forefront.
yeah gotta say her performance in aliens was absolutely fantastic
Ma man
i remember 'the year of living dangerously'.
Great film too.
she is the best.
She’s the badassest of the badasses.
In the 80's ran into Segoney on 72 st. I called-out, "hay Sagoney! She stopped and looked at me, and I said, " Aliens was great!" She smiled and walked away! Aliens is a fabulous Sci Fi flick which I recommend; enjoy it!
Very very nice
Most bad ass woman actor ever!!!
Sigourney Weaver is the goddess of Sci-fi.
Back because of jennifer lawrence's dumb comments
She was way too good at turning the questions into movie promotion. I realize that’s why she’s there, but she just so effortlessly says “great question” then sidesteps to making it about this new film particularly
Gen z actress or millenials you will never ever match Ripley charisma and super woman power
The only thing that I would have liked to hear you say is , Get To The Chopper !!!
She's no Sigourney Weaver ,she's Ellen Ripley and she truly escaped LV 426...
aliens is a master piece, and sigourney got robbed of an oscar for aliens
🥰
Ellen Ripley is the most bad ass of action hero of all time.
What movie are they talking about, with the breaking of the 4th wall?
It's a sin this woman never received an Oscar and that she didn't win the Emmy for Prayers for Bobby.
A goddess. Full stop!
First 2 movies are both masterpieces. Unfortunately, what followed next is much close to a definition of carbage, except for Sigourney’s performances.
0:45 2:01
Just kidding !
I've always liked her movies but I find that over time she has aged well and she is very sexy and has also picked up a little weight.
No offense but 95% plus percent of the Viewers only watched this for the Alien franchise movies. Jake why did you waste out time with Hilde and other dribble? Aliens related talk didnt even start until over half way through. Cut to the main topic Jake,
A little late to be pushing "Alien" etc. She's publicizing her recent film, rightly so.
