At school, earlier that year, returning to class after a memorably rain-drenched lunch hour, it was thrilling – if a tad frustrating – to see that our teacher(!) and some of the other lads were watching ALIENS, then –newly-released on video. Is it really thirty years since ALIENS was released this day in the US in 1986?(!) It wasn’t until my birthday the following year that ALIENS received its first viewing (on my well-worn VCR, of course). Warrant Officer Ellen Ripley and a cat named Jones, last surviving members of the commercial starship Nostromo have been found…” Beams of light flash on from above, criss-crossing the hull. “A scorched speck of technology called Narcissus drifts silently through the void on a non-stop course to nowhere. “Get away from her, YOU BITCH!” – Ellen Ripley. No gifs of staplers acting in a menacing yet seductive fashion are allowed.There are some places in the universe you don’t go alone….Do not engage in witch hunts or brigades.
