The planet was lv426. So fox decided the 26th of April would be alien day.
>>68761341
ah yes the famous backwards calendar
>>68761005
Anyone read the Nostromo? It's a tale about seaborne parasites.
>>68761408
No, is it any good? Isn't there a reference to "sulaco" in it as well?
>>68761476
It's set in a city called Sulaco.
>>68761341
>...Tuesday, April 26th, has been dubbed “Alien Day.” The date (4-26) is a nod to LV-426, the moon where the xenomorphs are discovered in the 1979 film from Ridley Scott.

I'm glad they changed the original name, snark or leviathan just don't have that ring to them.
>>68761005

The Nigger of the 'Narcissus'
Alien as with most pulp fiction is actually just real world stories "spaced up", Dune for example is based upon the end of the Ottoman Empire.

I forgot, even Scientology's mythical ethos is based upon the Holocaust and set a billion years in the past.
>>68763147
easy dude, we're memeing on 4chan. first two words in the title said anything that needed to be said.
Anyone going to see the double feature today? I've only seen Alien so seeing Aliens on 35mm for the first time should be fantastic.
>>68764008
I wish. Not showing in my area, I got to see alien directors cut in 2004 for the 25th anniversary but never had the chance to see aliens (all time favourite film) on the big screen. Saw ressuection when it came out but the less said about that the better.

>>68765532
>>68765350
Secreting resin.
>>68765350
some fans like to think they ooze the resin/substance they build the hive from there, it's nothing canon ofc.
the spikey thing near the neck is supposed to help them climb, but they never got it back after Alien 3, only the tubes
>>68765532
>>68765574
hahaha retarded seventies movie why can't it follow the prometheus canon with the manlet space suit 2/10
>>68764482
Looks like Ripley and pre-op Lambert spawned offspring.

THE STRANGEST THING ABOUT ALL OF THIS IS THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE SEA PEOPLE OF SARDINIA AND SCANDINAVIA.
THE LATE BRONZE AGE HAD THE SEA PEOPLE COMING FROM SARDINIA TO DESTROY THE OLD WORLD, THEN THE VANDALS SET THEMSELVES UP FROM THE SAME LOCATION AND ATTACKED THE MEDITERRANEAN, ULTIMATELY SACKING ROME IN A DEVASTATING ASSAULT THAT STRIPPED THE CITY OF WEALTH AND PEOPLE.
>>68765755
Yes
>>68765875
Wtf do Viking intestinal parasites have to do with Alien? The chestburster is a parasite, and it does not come out of back-tubes.

That..scorpion-crab-ostrich-fish thing in lower right is unsettling
>Alien was set in a year so far into the future that Fox cannot cash in on it immediately like Back To The Future and Blade Runner so they came up with this stupid event that has no connection or relevance
>>68761005
>le awesome
>can't wait for may the 4th too!

:^)
Surely it's Aliens Day, or is the planet named that in Alien?
Either way, its a shit marketing ploy.
>>68766185
Reminds me of The Thing, Flemish artist were based, they were the masters of mystery and horror of the day.
