B4 ALIEN: Covenant - Let's Review the SHIT outta ALIEN

While waiting for Alien Covenant, Mat and Matthew O revisit the first in the franchise, one of the greatest films of all time: ALIEN. We go over everyting, covering the characters, whether the effects hold up today, and which is better: Alien or Aliens?

Mathew Falvai

Mathew is a huge fan of Space, Strategy, and Shadowrun (Genesis version is #1). When it comes to games and films, he’d much rather experience a 10/10 classic from yesteryear than a 6/10 modern blandfest. He does feel we’re living in a gaming golden age with the power of indie developers at an all-time high, but wishes AAA publishers would take more risks. Mat believes it’s only a matter of time before the pendulum swings the other way and new ideas take their rightful place above reboots.
