I love the "retro" aesthetic of the controls and instruments in these movies. Nothing looks fancy or polished. You can tell, this stuff is made to be used (hard) and be reliable for years.
good point, even decades or century taking into account hyper sleep
I'm a 2005 baby and I can agree that the older movies are way better og Halloween slumber party massacre Texas chainsaw massacre Friday the 13th scream And nightmare on el street are all superior to majority of the near movies that's insane
What really sells this is the background and radio chatter. It sounds more authentic and feels like NASA or military are conducting a live major operation in real time. Ridley Scott lost sight of that in his Prometheus prequels.
He had greater control in the first movie, not any more.
It's also the unknown. I really didn't wanna know exactly how the aliens came to be. If you know Exactly what's in the shadows. It's just not scary anymore. Take away the unknown. What's that leave.
One thing is for sure. If we don't leave it to the large corporations. We are never going to get off this rock. We will never get a man past dark side of our own moon again. As our fathers did. Unless we just leave it up to the corporations and give up on the government doing it. Too many wars to fight.
He's a bizarre filmmaker these days. Too busy trying to inject some silly christianity/mythological undertones into everything, he can no longer create a realistic yet wondrous atmosphere or story. Most of his ideas for the prequels are just bad.
Star Trek TOS also had a lot of that background chatter. Despite the cheap sets, it made the Enterprise feel like a real submarine or aircraft carrier.
@@erentheca The miniature work on this film is inferior to STMP and yet Alien won for best visual effects. Makes no sense. IT WAS MORE POLITICAL. Alien should have won for ART DIRECTION/PRODUCTION DESIGN not Visual Effects. This miniature work is on par with Space :1999, which had below average miniature photography. Shallow depth of field. STMP special visual effects and miniature work was top notch!!! John Dykstra's Klingon sequence and Doug Trumbull's Enterprise shots are masterful and top of the line. There is no comparison.
Those practical effects, attention to detail, cinematography, Jerry Goldsmith's brilliant score. Damn, it doesn't get better than this.
Some people don't like the pacing, especially in the first half of that movie, but I love it. You just get to absorb this world they created, the atmosphere, slowly building tension, and get to know these characters a little bit.
@@gordons-alive4940 Exactly. There's enough visual information to take in and the careful pacing makes you feel like this is a real ship and crew, that just happen to be being filmed. Everything feels natural. The excellent camera work, production design and music all re-enforce this and the actors all behave like people going about their work professionally, despite some tensions and carping.
My thought exactly.
@Chad Mower That's what practical effects are. Not computer generated.
yeap; the landing part alone was a mini-masterpiece in itself, easily beating Kubrick's 2001...
I love the scale of the planets and the moons are compared to the Nostromo, the ambiance of this sequence is amazing; I can always feel how isolated they really are in the vastness of space when I watch it. The massive size of the ringed planet tended to give me a sense of foreboding as they approached the system. This movie is an underrated masterpiece.
Why would it be undervalued? ...
The movie-go audience and the profession alike agree that it’s the best sci-fi horror in the entire Galaxy!
@@belabaksay-roka900 I am talking in terms of when it was first released and how critics and the awards systems gave it little recognition. Now, of course, it is known as a classic, but in its time, it was underappreciated.
It's awesome that the ringed gas giant was given the name 'Calpalmos' later on, I believe this is the same gas giant in Prometheus, with the planetoids LV-223 & LV426(egg carrying derelict)orbiting around it.
I am not sure that is underrated. This movie generally features in most critics top 20 or even top 10. It's considered a sub-genre defining movie (horror-sci fi) and is often cited as the movie that launched Ridley Scott into the big leagues in Hollywood.
@@SaigonBrit Alien is officially number 3 in the Top 100 greatest SF movies ever made...
A great scene. Really could have been a nothing scene, but for me it's an example of how music, sound effects and dialogue can really make a scene come alive.
It completely mesmerizes me as a viewer. It has everything that is needed and more.
There's something so eerie about that shot approaching the planet and that sound effect of the ship
I don't know why but the computer-generated display of their descent to the planet always made me feel nervous.
What I love about this scene is that it stands in stark constrast to those sci-fi movies where ships zip around the galaxy and land effortlessly. Here, it's a complex process where things can and do go wrong, and the rocky landing requires repairs and further reinforces how isolated and vulnerable they are.
This is arguably one of my favorite scenes of the whole movie :D
🤣I thought I was the only one addicted to this scene.
It's very clever the way the scene minimizes the special effects needed by focusing on the Nostromo and the apparent atmosphere hurtling over it.
I just love the time (echo) difference between the countdown of the nostromo and the cargo ship.
who is going to argue what your favourite scenes are, lol? Who is the argument with, yourself? You can just say which your favourite scenes are, I won't argue lol
But I get your point, it's a gorgeous scene. A perfect movie of its genre, like Goodfellas
Totally agree my friends...!
The horror of the void.
One of the few SF movies to get spacecraft engine usage right. Note to other film-makers: Spaceships do NOT have to have their engines on all the time to keep moving.
Is it true that they would keep accelerating as long as the engines were lit?
@@visionist7 That is true, yes. In reality, a spacecraft engine is fired until the desired velocity is reached, then the engine is shut down and the ship coasts. In the vacuum of space, there is essentially nothing to act upon the ship to cause drag and slow it down. The only way to slow down is to rotate the ship 180 degrees, then fire the engine again to decelerate, unless the ship has another engine at the front pointing forwards. The first way is of course far more economical.
I always liked the way it handled the descent. Just a little trust was needed.
Good, but actually the burn should have been retrograde to start the descent...
@@fabiorezzonico4426 True. Theoretically, there might have been a retro-burn which we didn't see. If you look at a model of the Nostromo, it actually has forward-facing engine outlets as well as its rear ones. It could be argued that it used those off-screen to "brake" for re-entry.
As far as I know, previous understanding suggests, that the company name weylan yutani first appears in the sequel aliens. But if you look at the computer terminal display at 2:17, in this clip, you read weylan yutani nostromo. Cool find!
The Company appered first in blade runner
I liked it when Dallas said, " OK the money's safe, let's take you down."
Still looks good. Moments like these are great in a theater with decent sound.
Virtually every scene in this great film is a work of art. This one gives the feeling of actually being on a military aircraft or submarine. The attention to detail and radio chatter provides realism, and Jerry Goldsmith's gorgeous score heightens the sense of mystery. To all would-be film makers: Study this masterpiece because this is how it's done, kids.
Aliens production designers actually used old cockpit parts from a Vulcan bomber to dress the Nostromos bridge, which is why it looks so claustrophobically convincing...🤔
It’s a commercial ship though
I thought it was Horner that did the score?
@@TheWPhilosopherthat was Aliens
@@eq1373 ah cheers.
The emotions this scene stirs in me are profound. My favourite scene in the greatest film ever made. The sense of desolation and vastness of space are just perfect. Feels almost like I'm just a fly on the wall to real event, the music when the ship first undocks makes me emotional to this day.
Even to this very day, you still have the feeling that you were looking at something very special. As a child, I was on the edge of my seat. This movie made me also realize that we are not the only ones.... Space is never-ending and unforgiving. Eventually, they are going to find what they are looking for..... other habital planets and other lifeforms. I hope I'm around to see what I think most of us already knew.
Good luck explaining to your kids why movies from 40 years ago look better than many recent movies
is it really? all I'm hearing is nostalgia.
You do not have to explain it, just show them the movie! And by the way... They do not only just look better!
@@MastaFista it is. But it has nothing to do with nostalgia. Good movies are timeless. The problem comes when people think something is better only because it's recent.
Yes ok nostalgia plays a part for sure but also movies like Alien are objectively better in almost every regard. I mean Alien was made on a fairly low budget but the universe is utterly immersive and almost all the effects are in camera/optical and look superb. There are only a couple of moments (such as the nuke at the end) that look a little dated but the rest is magical. Also the quality of the writing, characterization and plot development are superb. This is an example of so-called 'subverting expectations' done in a subtle and finessed way. There is no clear protagonist until late in the movie when Ripley (shock horror a lead action female protagonist) is suddenly thrust into being the hero of the moment. There is no fanfare, no 'look at me I'm a strong independent wahman' moment, it's just a kick-ass character who happens to be the 3rd officer of the ship and happens to be a woman. This is how it should be done. Modern movies are so cack handed and full of SJW propaganda as well as horrible CGI effects that makes everyone look waxy and fake. So, aside from a health dose of nostalgia, this movie is objectively better than 99% of the movies made in the last 10 years.

Despite all advancement in technology. This still remains my favourite Alien.
Despite advancement over the years, I think this kind of technology is still being used in space stations, thus making this film so relevant after 40 years.
@@2600BC.where's your proof?!
@@2600BC. Some old technology is still used, because it's reliable. For example electronics used in the spacecraft doesn't have to be state of the art processors and chips since old ones are enough for the job and they are proven to be immune to space radiation and conditions, because of their less sophisticated structure compared to modern ones.
I know. The way things appear on screen and the physical display monitors and all the clicking sounds are so primitive compared to what we have now, and yet this film still pulls it off with this ship and its components. It just takes a little suspension of the imagination. And we just have to keep the inventory on Prometheus out of our minds if we watched that. I suppose we could argue that the purposes behind the missions were different in the two scenarios: one was a scientific expedition, where they could use all kinds of fancy stuff and supposedly be relaxed while they studied with their tools; the other involved picking up mineral ore from some mine, and involved more grit.
The music really adds to the great visuals
I saw "Alien" in a large theater that had Dolby sound and 70mm, and the patrons in the packed auditorium were
spellbound during this masterful sequence. I love Jerry Goldsmith and I think this is one of his finest scores.
Some sailor in 1790 in a ship at sea: 'Prime the Port'...
Ripley some hundred years later (in deep space): 'Prime The port'...
Some things don't change
What does it mean?
I hope in the 3 years since you posted this comment your math has improved...
It's "Prime to port."
One of my favorite Sci-fi Horror movies. Great Plot, fantastic script.
Ridley Scott, a master filmmaker. And this was only his second motion picture.
When he was young and hungry for glory... and he sure covered himself in the stuff here
Too bad he lost his touch
@@user-lq2nu6cn7yindeed, he's unworthy at present.
The scene of the tiny Nostromo w/refinery moving in front of LV-426 0:37 is just breathtaking.
this movie has mostly aged very well. my favorite part occurs at 1:41 with the Nostromo turning as it's landing and the musical score really kicks in. The score gives an emotion that's hard to describe. The notes are elegant but not happy, more mysterious and you're waiting for them to resolve into something sensible but there's dissonance that gives you a churning feeling in your stomach that almost matches the odd angle that the Nostromo is turning while you have that almost acidic yellow cloud of the planet hovering to the right.
in a way, the view reminds me of Venus in a way, with the hellish landscape (minus pressure/heat issues of Venus). Just a blanket of mystery that only can be uncovered in diving deep to find the next mystery.
heavy and slowly spaceship, details shine by them selves, sounds can do an innmersive atmo but more impresive was the xenomorph by him self, excelent job mr. giger.
After reading about how rocket engines look in space ( like you only see the inhibition in the chamber, and not a big flaming trail like in atmosphere) I’ve grown to appreciate when the main thrusters of the landing craft ignite; you just see a light, no flame trail.
yes without a doubt a science fiction/horror masterpiece in every way.
This is one of the most perfect movies of all time!!
I just realized Alien space scenes are better made than Aliens space scenes. Then Scott used to be better at practical effects than Cameron i.e. just remember the Blade Runner.
this needs more views my man / woman / idc
The music is so top tier.
I actually think the first half of the film is the best. It’s so incredibly unique and mysterious, no film since has made outer space feel as creepy and isolating.
In the midst of that it makes the humanity of the crew (except for Ash) even more salient.
I love how sickly the moon looks.
Saw this movie when I was a kid during the GOLDEN AGE of movies & long 5 hour lines to get in. We saw this movie in Century City where they had the actual props from the movie for us to walk through. We saw & climbed onto the Alien in the seat from the ship scene. It was made out of wax. The open chest cavity had numerous cigarette butts in it. Smokers of the 1970s WERE SLOBS!!!! We also got to walk into & through the actual computer room. It was all the light bulbs minus the monitors which was left with big square holes. When we saw the movie, everyone thought Captain Dallas was the obvious star. Everyone was totally blown away to see a woman survive to the end. Alien was the first movie in cinematic history to ever have a female lead survive in a scary film
Halloween? Texas chainsaw massacre?
Alien is definitely on my Mount Rushmore. A true masterpiece
In space nobody can hear you scream.
But apparently there is an echo.
Too bad the part when the ship is desending, an ungodly shrieking sound is emitted from the ship, causing Parker to exclaim:: "What the hell was that?" Is cut off... Kind of like a bad omen... warning of what is to come.
I absolutely love every second of this film.
I'm guessing it would be a little bit bumpy if your flying a spaceship that has about as much aerodynamic finesse is a house brick
57 years before "We're in the pipe, 5 by 5".
Where's the Goddamn beacon?
Oh I see it.
We're picking up some hull ionization...
Got it. ROUGH AIR AHEAD, WE'RE IN FOR SOME CHOP.
That female Marine pilot in the aviator shades. Was hotter than 5 gods.
"Somebody wake up Hicks."
The first part of Alien is like a documentary on how we will move freight in space in the future. It gives the movie so much credibility.
This scene filled me with trepidation when I first saw this movie.
The Nostromo looks like a bucket of bolts that might fall apart any moment pn descent. Then they lose one of their shields in the storm. I thought they were going to crash land. You feel for the vulnerability of yhe crew.
As close to poetry a sci-fi movie can get.
How in the world did they make this in 79?
What a beautiful shot at 0.37-0.41
Fully agree. Enchanting.
It is just a painting, Ridley said so himself.
@@craigsimons817 Uhm, have you watched Ridley Scott's commentary on the whole film? Though I am not sure if this particular scene is a painting on the background with a moving toy but Ridley said , on the scene of Derelick where Kane was going down on the cave and Nostromo's explosion, those scenes are paintings.
@@2600BC.Thank you for that.
Painting or not it is still a great scene, regardless of it’s origins.
Landmark cinema
When movies focused on story, immersion, atmosphere. I miss those days.
I guess the cat stayed on the main ship to supervise things.
I think what they left in orbit was the refinery they were towing home. They parked it in orbit, detached and took the Nostromo down to the surface. I suspect Jonesy the cat was with them on the Nostromo.
@@fourthhorseman4531 This makes sense. The Nostromo is the ship that is towing the huge cargo.
To make sure to secure the food 😜
That cat was smarter than all of them. He was flying the mothership, While he played solitaire with mother.
@@BillHawkins0318 There you go 😁
Il primo film 🎥 della saga a dato inizio a tutta una serie di film 🎞 ma questo rimane un esempio di fantascienza magnifica ineguagliabile
The greatest film with one of the great scores
0:15 - Ellen Ripley's station. There's a picture of her cat Jonesy on the right.
The days of miniturettes will never come again
Oh!!!! This takes me back to the days of HBO!!!!
One of the rare times in which Lambert is calm, cool and collected while in a precarious situation. One of Alien's character geniuses is having the two women be foils to each other as far as temperament and fortitude .
Well she is in her comfort ZOne here.
Fantastic scene. It conveys the sheer size of space. Also the planetary atmosphere looks so foreboding. The tecnique was brilliant. They filled a tank with different colored liqiuds, swirled in some textures and photographed it from above.
I walked down to the cinema and was going to walk home. Took a taxi. Scared the hell out of me.
This is the only Alien movie I'm interested in.
Practical effects last way longer than CGI, which feels updated after 4 or 5 years
It's a pity fewer movies are using practical effects
0.37 Just that shot of the Nostromo in front of the Planet and it's moons...
Great computer graphics in this movie for 1979 the computer screens were really good.
Amazing that this was only Ridley's second movie. They really lucked out in picking him as director.
Absolutely wonderful...sorry cgi..but this is magnificent..the music..and sfx..Absolutely beautiful....remember watching this at the cinema...the hairs on the back of my neck....!!!
Its all genius. Including this famous Ridley jump-cut to the inbound ship (from arguing crew) to push the pace.
Beautiful.
I love this scene!
This is proof the younger generation were getting a chance to really change the way movies were made .
It needs more likes and views.
1:13 Brian Johnson's miniature work always had problems with shallow depth of field, and he rarely undercranked the camera for just space shots, only explosions and crashes, etc.
Alien should have won the Academy Award for ART DIRECTION/PRODUCTION DESIGN NOT NOT NOT Visual Effects.
Cool 👍 sceen! And fire 🔥 after-burners "on my mark!"
Sure beats today CGI / rapid edited films with banal scrips and populated with adolescent actors
Neither the old nor the new are perfect. Both have their strengths and weaknesses.
0:38-0:43 stunning visual
Lt. Ripley still making those huge payments for nuking the Mother ship and LV-426 !!!
Every detail is so enjoyable in this, from the mechanical to the terminology. If I ever did find out, I have forgotten: what does "PRIME THE PORT" mean? This is what Ripley instructs as they are making a descent. Does this mean "steer left," since the left side of a ship is the port side (as opposed to the "starboard" or right side)? We notice the ship leaning to the left right after she says that.
This movie takes place in 2122.
Ah the days when they had intelligent crew onboard spaceships.
Good job my friend
the alien is not the villain of this movie. He does what he is supposed to do. Ash, on the contrary, is the evil character: deceiving, manipulative, willing to kill anyone in order to carry on with his mission.
1:16 face hugger resemblance.
The planets scene look so eerie on 0:38s
-nobody can hear you scream...but they CAN hear you count.
1:57 just noticed what appears to be a photo of baby jones🥰
As much as I love the second film _Aliens,_ this is more how the drop ship in that film should have descended. Launching from the still orbiting Sulaco, the drop ship wouldn't have, ah, dropped at all!
But I know it was done that way to keep the action going..
This is scene full pain!
I never noticed til now, if Zeta II Reticuli was a binary star system, I noticed the 2nd sun was missing
the propellers of the disengaged ship from the base, look like flowers with i guess 8 leaves as in a fibonacci sequence(1:45) . Still this contrast between life , warmth, emotions, (the flowers) and the coldness of space, the rationality of machinery and death waiting for the personell. the theme of flowers has been proposed in the opening scene,when the pods , with the inside the crew members in deep sleep , open up. Again life vs death.
"It's a rock. No indigenous life."
"Did IQs drop sharply while I was away?"
TRUE!! But a realistic dark view from the exhaust nozzles does not “look good” on film. Visuals, after all wow the general movie goer!
having no sound at all in space shots is emotionally impactful btw stick with that
I heard a countdown in a vacuum !!!
nailed
No CGI at all, 100% practical effects... still more convincing than most of the CGI wankery which costs literally 20x more.
CGI does not compensate for the lost ARTISTRY.
Hollywood just will not make movies NEAR this good anymore.. in ANY fashion.. seeing a few youtube amateur that are pretty good though, indy films ftw
Lots of BladeRunner computer effects there
... Hmmm ... Don't mind that "Blade runner" was made 3 years later ...
That's because Blade Runner and Alien are set in the same universe.
Why is this so good? It’s just a really dry technical approach and landing sequence
Dallas: Mother's Safe. Let's Take Her Down.
Did they put the refinery in orbit?
