S4 EP.22 - Chestbursting with happiness - A review of the Alien franchise pt.1

🎙️ Podcast Episode: Chestbursting with Happiness —A Dive into the Alien & Aliens Films Episode Description: In today's thrilling episode, our hosts delve into the iconic Alien and Aliens films. First, they tackle the question: What actually defines an Android in the Alien universe? Expect a deep dive into the nuances of artificial intelligence, free will, and what it means to be almost human or 20 minutes of rambling about how the Terminator is different from a person with prosthetics. Next, they confront the head-scratcher that is Alien vs. Predator. Why mixing these two franchises was like putting pineapple on pizza—a polarizing and confusing mistake. Spoiler: it doesn't always hit the spot. Our hosts then expose the murky depths of capitalism that led to the proliferation of xenomorphs against humanity. We'll explore how corporate greed, resource exploitation, and power imbalances brought these terrifying creatures closer to Earth. Lastly, we'll compare the original Alien to its sequel, Aliens. The former's claustrophobic, nerve-wracking horror stands in stark contrast to the latter's action-packed, adrenaline-fueled terror. Claustrophobic isolation or military combat—how do they stack up in terms of inducing pure, unadulterated fear? 🎧 Grab your flamethrowers and motion trackers; this episode is a deep space ride you won't want to miss. #alien #moviereview #predator
