I was sure I’d written about Aliens here...
About how great Ripley is, and how while so many kid additions to action films are a drag Newt is awesome - I love the bit where she’s screaming and retreating, then stops and traps the facehugger creeping up behind her. And the reversal of Bishop, and how much Burke deserves what he gets, and how well it fits together so we have Gorman and Vasquez dying and the explosion is what makes Newt fall...
It is, as noted, a separate thing from ALIEN to the extent that there’s a new Aliens video game coming out soon, and the old Aliens RPG was heavily tactical while the new ALIEN RPG’s defining mechanic is Stress. So see who wants which when considering a game in either style.
