Why Aliens is A Great Sequel - Talking About Tapes (#147)

Tony, Joe, and Johanna return for ALIENS! The sequel to Alien. In this movie review/podcast they will talk about why its a great sequel. Everything from the jump forward the movie took with special effects, how they pulled off amazing stuff on a relatively small budget, and how the movie came out so good despite the problems that were happening behind the scenes.

After floating in space for 57 years, Lt. Ripley's (Sigourney Weaver) shuttle is found by a deep space salvage team. Upon arriving at LV-426, the marines find only one survivor, a nine year old girl named Newt (Carrie Henn). But even these battle-hardened marines with all the latest weaponry are no match for the hundreds of aliens that have invaded the colony.
