Ridley Scott originally planned PROMETHEUS to continue with PARADISE LOST, a sequel that would’ve led directly into ALIEN (1979) & explained the crashed derelict. The project evolved into ALIEN: COVENANT, with much of the Engineer storyline left behind.

PROMETHEUS turns 14 today. It marked Ridley Scott’s return to the ALIEN universe after 33 years. Rather than make a direct sequel, Scott used PROMETHEUS to explore the origins of humanity & the mysterious Space Jockey first glimpsed in the original film.

Ridley Scott debuted at 40 with The Duelists (1977), then delivered Alien (1979) and Blade Runner (1982) back-to-back. An unforgettable streak of cinematic brilliance.

23 JUMP STREET was originally planned as a MEN IN BLACK crossover. Jonah Hill and Channing Tatum would’ve joined MIB as interns to track down alien drug dealers. The idea was scrapped, with elements later reworked into MEN IN BLACK: INTERNATIONAL (2019).

Alien (1979) is a masterclass in atmospheric filmmaking. Ridley Scott builds dread through pacing, production design, and silence as much as dialogue. One of the most perfectly constructed sci-fi horror films ever made.

The original trailer for Alien (1979) is still one of the greatest trailers ever cut. Ridley Scott approved a near wordless montage of flashing images and that rising siren sound, created by the marketing team using the film’s own machinery audio.

Alien (1979) has aged like fine wine. Every frame still oozes atmosphere, dread, and tactile realism. Ridley Scott famously filled the set with smoke and used strobing lights to hide the creature, making what little you see infinitely scarier.

If you’re overthinking a pitch deck, just know that James Cameron convinced Hollywood execs in the mid-80s to make the sequel for “Alien” by writing the word “Aliens” on a peice paper with a ‘$’ instead of the letter ‘s’: “Alien$”

Ridley Scott’s new film The Dog Stars isn’t far out & I’m starting to get really excited. I’ll never accept how diverse Scott’s filmography is, for example, between films like Alien & Prometheus, Scott is responsible for two of my personal favorite sci-fi movies. Unmatched range.

Metroid turns 40 this year. One of the most iconic games ever for the NES, and one of the most unusual endings in gaming history. Did you know that Samus's iconic ability to roll into a compact ball wasn't originally planned? Tt stemmed from a programming limitation on the NES that made the crawling animation too complex. Developers then turned it into a feature for navigating tight spaces. This was later picked up by other games too, for example Turrican or Sonic the Hedgehog. The game's creator, Gunpei Yokoi, was heavily influenced by Ridley Scott's 1979 sci-fi horror classic, giving the game its eerie atmosphere, isolated exploration on a hostile alien planet, and even naming the dragon-like boss Ridley after the film's director.

How did the left end up with a bunch of positions that are completely alien to the people we aspire to represent? I loved this conversation with @ayocaesar

Team Ninja originally asked Bungie for permission to use Master Chief, which proved impossible due to story restrictions. As a result, Bungie developed the concept of a Spartan not connected to the Halo storyline who could fit into DOA4. This concept evolved into Nicole.

This is a rare behind-the-scenes shot of the original Xenomorph from the 1979 film Alien. The image clearly reveals the eerie “human” skull visible beneath the creature’s translucent dome. A deliberate design choice by H.R. Giger. He included it to suggest that the alien mimics distinctive features of its host.

ALIEN was released 47 years ago today. Ripley was originally written as a man. Ridley Scott and Fox decided late in pre-production to cast a woman instead, and Sigourney Weaver became one of the final major actors hired before filming began.
