Prepare to unlock the mysteries of "Alien Resurrection" as we venture into the heart of this divisive film. Hear from our special guest,  Susanna, as she argues that Ripley's detachment from her original character arc could be the key to truly appreciating this installment. We also bring in the varied perspectives of Jozua, whose fondness for the movie is on a curious upswing, and Anthony, who juxtaposes the tonal shifts of our feature with those in "Batman Forever". Experience our candid debate over the film's narrative choices, from the cloning controversy to the memorable '90s basketball scene, all while discovering surprising moments of enjoyment amidst our critiques.Sigourney Weaver's prowess, both on-screen and on-set, becomes a beacon of admiration as we dissect "Alien Resurrection" through a hybrid lens of film critique. Explore with us the film's jarring mix of deathly serious scenarios and misplaced humor, the pacing of the alien creatures' growth against the franchise timeline, and the baffling DNA subplots that tangle the story. This chapter of our discussion peels back the layers of a movie that could have solidified its place in the saga with a more focused tone, adding to the legacy rather than standing apart from it.Looking beyond the confines of the controversial fourth film, we project our thoughts into the future of the Alien universe. The anticipation for the Alien TV series looms as we contemplate the potential depth of corporate villainy in Weyland-Yutani's portrayal and the series' commitment to psychological horror that resonates deeper than any visual shock. With a balance of skepticism and hope, we rate "Alien Resurrection" as a standalone action flick and as a member of the revered Alien lineage, marking the distinctions with the precision of a laser-guided weapon. Join us as we unravel a cinematic tapestry that continues to evolve, scare, and fascinate.  Find Susana: http://susanaimaginario.com/index.htmlFind Anthony: https://www.youtube.com/@horrorable1970Send us a textPage Chewing Blog Page Chewing Forum Page Chewing Podcast Speculative Speculations Podcast Support the show by using our Amazon Affiliate linkSupport the podcast via PayPalJoin Riverside.fm Co-Hosts and friends: Jarrod Varsha Chris Jose
