    "Alien," directed by Ridley Scott and released in 1979, is a seminal science fiction horror film that has left an indelible mark on both genres. The film stars Sigourney Weaver as Ellen Ripley, a warrant officer on the commercial space tug Nostromo. The plot revolves around the crew's encounter with a deadly extraterrestrial organism after investigating a distress signal on a desolate planet.
    The movie is renowned for its atmospheric tension, groundbreaking special effects, and the iconic design of the titular alien by artist H.R. Giger. "Alien" blends sci-fi and horror elements seamlessly, creating a claustrophobic and terrifying experience that explores themes of isolation, survival, and the unknown.
    Sigourney Weaver's performance established Ripley as a powerful and enduring female protagonist, paving the way for strong women in action and sci-fi films. "Alien" not only achieved commercial success but also garnered critical acclaim, earning an Academy Award for Best Visual Effects and spawning a successful franchise, including sequels, prequels, and crossovers.
    Overall, "Alien" remains a landmark film, celebrated for its innovation, suspenseful storytelling, and cultural impact, influencing countless movies and inspiring a dedicated fan base.

      This movie was set on a commercial towing vehicle, that had an automated refinery that processed mineral ore. It only makes sense that it would be much more rugged and "lived in" than the science and exploration starships we see on Star Trek and the like. I thought it was a great choice and also, the way they made the captain NOT be the centerpiece star of the show. Tom Skerrit played his role perfectly.

      For many reasons, that one you mentioned especially. You have to really feel like you're there stuck on the Nostromo with the crew, and many of today's filmmakers would struggle to have the environment & setting as the real "star" of the show. It was very easy to screw up the formula, but they got it right with Alien (minus a few nitpicks). The caliber of actor back then was better IMO too. Today, not many actors are truly convincing.

      100% It was made with passion and in an era in which the key elements of film had reached a high point. The effects industry was still in its infancy, but the folks working on this film made up for it with their talent and ingenuity. And let's be honest: the current era of film has proven that effects most certainly are not the end all be all of sci-fi film.

    Crew expendable…that would be soul crushing. Especially when the mechanics were arguing earlier in the film about wanting a larger share for risking their lives to find out what caused the signal and Ripley sided with the company. The mechanics were right to want more money since they were not a rescue ship and the company only focused on their profits and not its employees.

      Ash suddenly and quite unexpectedly being right there at the time is quite unexpected; it is perhaps a bit surprising that Ripley did not get very suddenly spooked and shocked right then and there by Ash; I mean, the killer alien-creature could have been right thereabouts at the time, perhaps, with Ripley not possessing a firearm at the time. Ripley was pretty calm and cool about Ash suddenly and unexpectedly arriving right there and then, other than that Ripley was quite understandably and quite reasonably upset and distressed regarding the information provided to her by Mother.

It was logical to go forth from this scene with exposing to the characters & audience Ash was an android. The "jig" was officially up at that point.

      It was the most important addition of the Giler/Hill rewrite of O'Bannon and Shussett's original "Starbeast" script. Giler and Hill exaggerate how much they rewrote the story, pushing the idea that it was a complete do-over. But, really, MOST of the major plot beats are the same. But Giler and Hill's spark of genius was to realize that the Nostromo crew needed an enemy within to add an extra dimension to the narrative, to prevent the story from becoming too one-note. The Ash sub-plot provides that, along with the requisite 70s-style paranoia about corporate conspiracies.

    Of course in the future there is no way someone would be asking a computer questions via a clunky keyboard and in modern day Sc-fi it always be a verbal conversation between the human an computer via Ai but this scene is so strong because of the silence and the suspense of reading the the screen with the ambient noises in back ground, works so well and modern cinema lacks these intimate and atmospheric moments I feel. Also this scene has reminded me that this film isn't just about the horror of Aliens bursting out of chests, it's about the horror of what humans are capable of and what their sociopathic agendas are 'humans are expendable' the amazing balance of psychological and physical horror is so brilliantly executed here.

      Why not? You can type faster than you can speak, and a precisely worded query via text will get you a better result faster from an AI than a vocal input that can be misheard or misinterpreted. Vocal inputs "feel" futuristic but make for a pretty bad user experience when you have the space for a full keyboard arrangement instead.

It’s obviously a more realistic situation when dealing with an Ai, talking to it is much more natural and efficient, but I digress, my point was, this scene is more effective due to the silence and coldness of reading the computers response rather than having a persona or human-like voice that responds.

    That moment at 0:59, she is in the brink of tears.
    She suspects the answer, yet can't fathom the lack of humanity of their employers.
    That then boils over into actual anger at 1:09-
    1:31, a mix of acceptance and denial until she is interrupted and the feelings, being kept under the surface the whole time, explode into the foreground. Despair and rage, she doesn't know what to do with herself. But she knows, she is more or less alone on this. Which is then confirmed when she can't raise them on the radio.
    This is not a simple betrayal.

      @Bogeyatyour6YT - The subtleties of her expressions are interesting: her puzzlement at 0:29 when she makes a mistake (presumably?) in typing/turning on the system (notice that it takes her two tries to boot up "Mother"); then corrects it and ever so slightly nods her head at 0:36 once the GUI appears, as if saying to herself, "Good, at least it's working"; then reacts with puzzlement/mild irritation at 0:47-0:48 when Mother doesn't respond to her first query ("Did I type that right? Or is THIS the right question to ask?"); and then, in quick succession, the realizations that you bring up. (Perhaps I'm reading user confusion into this, but her actions suggest that either she's never used Mother before or else her frustration with the situation is causing her to make computing errors.)
