Me: watching Ghostbusters for the plot

The plot:

hello fellow alien fan... would you be at all interested in exchanging thoughts about this iconic film franchise? need to talk about it fr

Hello there! Thanks for reaching out. I have way too many thoughts about the franchise but feel free to DM me if you have specific questions as well.

It’s def my favorite franchise and the first film is tied at my first favorite movie (tied with Carol [2015]).

Ripley is obviously my favorite character but I adore every character in the original.

Love Aliens a lot and I have a soft spot for Alien 3 a lot.

I own the original three on VHS cause why not, I do a lot of artwork based on it, have WAY too much merch from it, have a tattoo from it, own the soundtrack as well, and just convinced my orchestra director to let us do the main theme from the first movie this spring for our concert! So yeah, you could say I understand your obsession.

My Alien Franchise hot take is that Clemens and Ripley (Alien 3) are a better couple than Hicks and Ripley (Aliens).

I’ve played the video game, of course, and it’s what helped me and my girlfriend really bond when we first met at music camp. She’s bought me way too many things from Alien, even making me an anniversary card with a Xenomorph drawing on the front!

I’m in love with Ellen Ripley and my crush on Sigourney Weaver is what first turned me onto the franchise so thanks, Siggy!

Anyways, I rambled but you asked for it! Let me know if you have any thoughts or other questions, I love talking about this topic!

Here are some of my alien franchise shenanigans

"Sigourney Reaver" in Jem (1985), "Hollywood Jem (Part 2: And The Winner Is)"

I’m obsessed with this photo for some reason.

Maybe it’s the fact that we get a rare look at an interaction with H.R. Giger and Sig or maybe it’s just sweaty, smiley, Sig…who knows!

I adore this photo

Look at them holding hands!!!!
