Aliens

Since I bought Alien on DVD, I picked up the sequel, Aliens, off Amazon Prime. They didn't have just that movie on DVD, and buying the streaming version only cost one dollar more at $5 vs. renting it.

I watched it last Saturday and Sunday nights. It's held up pretty good. James Cameron sounds like a total asshole, but Terminator and Aliens are great films.

The one thing that struck me during this viewing is when Ripley torches the eggs in front of the queen. I dunno, seemed like a waste of time, since the colony was about to blow in less than 15 minutes.

Now that I own it, maybe I'll watch it 10 years or so.
