whoa they are just like me
They mostly come at night. Mostly.
>>223432880me and my friends used to watch aliens all the time and constantly quote newt and then years later south park did it and i realized that everyone found her line reads as funny as we did
>>223432856>at nightSo they don't come on the bright, sunny days of LV-426? Good, we'll just wait until daylight then.
Yeah, I don't have any privacy during the day. Can only get my faps in at night.
How the fuck this blind ass nigga know what time it is??!
>>223433331What a dickhead he is.
>>223432856honestly I think this line gets overlooked by nerds, like is she saying the aliens are nocturnal? I got the impression that once they caught everyone they sorta powered down in thier nest until the marines arrived, but the implication from what she says is that if the marines had landed at the wrong time of day then the whole colony would have had 200 aliens running around. never see that talked about.
>>223433673We’re talking about it now
>>223432856favorite child actor performance
>>223433673it's open-ended. personally, i think they hibernate as needed and they attack as needed. it's just easier at nighttime and they're smart
>>223433673we don't even know the day/night cycle of the planet they're on. night time might last 20 earth hours for all we know
>>223433331They don't see the same way we do, but they can see well enough to tell the difference between the day and night. It's like a combo of Daredevil/Eridian echolocation and a directional sense of heat and infrared, more precise than what human skin gives us
>>223433673How would they know they caught everyone unless they did sweeps. Theyd have some kind of activity if for no reason other than protecting the queen.
>>223432856Newt a cute
I love Aliens but I think the idea they just hibernate once hosts are gone is dumb. Maybe you can say they needed more biomass to start a self-sufficient colony but it would be neat to see them create a weird biomechanical planet covered in alien structures
>>223437407What would they do with no hosts around?Farm?
>>223437650They're not actually meant to be boring bugs that are only concerned with parasitical breeding. They're a weird extraterrestrial lifeform that constantly changes and evolves. They are also not fully organic. They could easily start using the materials from the planet to start spreading structures all over and making either starships or wormholes or some such to start spreading to elsewhere. They're not supposed to be stupid and the greatest thing they can do is run at you and slash with their claws or bite with their mouth.
>>223433301>>223433673>>223435029Pretty sure LV-426 doesn't have daytime due the the atmosphere still being processed.
>>223438020>They're not actually meant to be boring bugsSays who?
>>223438267autism, that's who
>>223433673I take it to be a combination of things, ant-like internal clock for running a large hive, and the natural hunter instinct to hunt only at night when most normal animals are sleeping.
>>223438237Kek, is that was you think defines "day" and "night"? It's if the surface you're on is facing the sun at the moment or not, retard
When filming the scene with Newt in the duct, Carrie Henn kept deliberately blowing her scene so she could slide down the vent, which she later called a slide three stories tall. James Cameron finally dissuaded her by saying that if she completed the shot, she could play on it as much as she wanted. She did, and he kept his promise.
>>223438267Says the directors and writers of both movies? Fuck, you people are stupid
