That opening shot of the underside of the ship... Did this come out before SW? Seems one of the movies was homaging

Came out two years later.

I saw Aliens before Alien and I’ve always regretted that.

I get why you think that. It's not an absurd opinion.

Aliens shares a lot of aesthetics and sensibilities with video games. Modern video games owe a lot to the film. I think it makes sense that gamers would be more attractived to Aliens.

I play a shitload of video games and have no idea what parallel you're trying to draw here.

Occasionally? But I don’t know what that has to do with anything? Seems like a bizarre takeaway from Aliens. The movie has always been popular, way before any video games it inspired came out.

I think you're overthinking what I'm saying. They scratch the same itch, is all.

Murder On The Orient Express.

What a visual joy. Its so cool they made a big budget movie without fucking SW or Marvel characters. The production design is glorious, the costumes, the camera work...everything is so tasteful.

I wouldn't call $55 million "big budget."
