About this movie:
- Director: James Cameron
- Summary: 57 years after Ellen Ripley had a close encounter with the reptilian alien creature from the first movie, she is called back, this time, to help a group of highly trained colonial marines fight off against the sinister extraterrestrials. But this time, the aliens have taken over a space colony on the moon LV-426. When the colonial marines are called upon to search the deserted space colony, they later find out that they are up against more than what they bargained for. Using specially modified machine guns and enough firepower, it's either fight or die as the space marines battle against the aliens. As the Marines do their best to defend themselves, Ripley must attempt to protect a young girl who is the sole survivor of the nearly wiped out space colony.

Amazing that for $5 we now have a MUCH higher quality and I no longer have to flip laser discs!
RIP Bill Paxton

For 5 dollars? Yup. I've been reading on the forums for a couple months on how bad/weird this transfer is, so i went in with low expectations.
Watched first 20 minutes and really, I expected it to be worse. Yeah it's a bit degrained, looks a bit too clean, but overall, 5 dollars SE, 4K and a good Atmos track. I really can't complain.
Recommend.
less fortunate news:
it seems like they DNR'ed the shit outta this movie. just like Terminator 2 (which ironically is also a James Cameron film).
The CLV or "less fancy" ones lasted 60 minutes; the CAV or "more fancy ones" lasted 30 minutes, and let you still see the picture when you paused it or ff/rw;
at some point, my dad bought an ultra fancy machine which flipped the disks for you; no clue what he paid for it!
Picture got to 425 lines (not even 480!)
I particularly remember the aliens pausing it after bishop is cut in half and trying to hold onto something, you can see the hole that the actor was standing in- resolution wasn't good enough to see that previously, and I was blown away.

Hicks : Here. I want you to put this on.
Ripley : What's it for?
Hicks : It's a locator. Then I can find you anywhere in the complex on this. It's just a precaution.
Ripley : Thanks.
Hicks : Doesn't mean we're engaged or anything. All right, what's next?
- Those things are gonna come in here just like they did before. And they're gonna come in here and they're gonna get us!
Ripley:
- This little girl survived longer than that with no weapons and no training. Right?
(Newt nods)
Hudson:
- Why don't you put her in charge?
Ripley:
- You'd better just start dealing with it, Hudson.
- Listen to me.
- Hudson, just deal with it because we need you. And I'm sick of your bullshit.
Hudson: Hey Vasquez, have you ever been mistaken for a man?
Vasquez: No. ... Have you?

Here's some food for thought (spoiler alert, sorry if you haven't seen this yet in the last 40 years)... if Ripley hadn't gone postal and blew up all the eggs, the queen wouldn't have chased her and got on the ship. But then again we wouldn't have that final fight scene....
