Does It Fly?
The Most Controversial Alien Franchise Moment Explained!

Does It Fly?

Love it or hate it, Alien Resurrection won't be ignored. The final film in the Ripley saga of the Alien franchise (before it branched off into Predators, prequels, and other distractions…more on that below), Alien Resurrection has always been something of a hot-button issue with fans. Maybe not as much as Prometheus, but still! Any movie that deals with cloning a beloved character (who had been granted a heroic death in the previous film), complete with “genetic memories” is bound to push some buttons, but that's not even the biggest thing this movie adds to the franchise. Alien Resurrection heralds the arrival on the scene of a new kind of Xenomorph. Specifically, a human/alien hybrid made via the same shady experiments that helped “bring back” Ripley. As a result, we get a Xenomorph that (among other things) no longer lays eggs and instead can reproduce in a slightly more recognizable/mammalian fashion. And hoo-boy, do Hakeem and Tamara have questions about this one! From the handling of cloning to the hybrid alien itself, this episode of Does it Fly? is for you if the gooier corners of the Alien universe are your cup of acid blood.Check it out here or on our YouTube page!SUGGESTED VIEWING Before we get into the intricacies of the Alien franchise, allow us to also recommend one of Tamara's favorite movies, Code 46, an underrated 2003 film from director Michael Winterbottom which deals with a few similar themes of ethics within biotechnology as they regard our discussion about Alien Resurrection. Obviously, concepts from Alien Resurrection are what we focus on in this episode, but if you haven't seen the movies that precede it, too, then you might be a little lost. Those are…Alien (1979)Aliens (1986)Alien 3 (1992)Alien Resurrection (1997)Now, the franchise continues on after that, albeit to mixed (and sometimes controversial) results. Those are…Alien vs. Predator (2004)Alien vs. Predator: Requiem (2007) Both of the above movies are inessential, and take place BEFORE the events of the first film, or even the other prequels. Speaking of which, for the last decade or so, the Alien franchise has been more concerned with exploring the days before the first film, which brings us to…Prometheus (2012)Alien: Covenant (2017)And now, currently in theaters is Alien: Romulus, which takes place between Alien and Aliens. Get watchin'!FURTHER READING Do you want to delve a little deeper into the facts, concepts, and stories Hakeem and Tamara referenced in today's episode? Of course you do! CloningCentral to our discussion about the Xenomorph/human hybrid in Alien Resurrection is the question of cloning. Granted, this is a tough one to read up on, but this fact sheet from the National Human Genome Research institute is a good start. Also, doesn't the fact that there's a National Human Genome Research Institute in the first place make it sound like we're already living in a sci-fi movie?Genetic MemoryHakeem (and science in general) state that when you clone an organism, you're making a twin of it, you aren't creating an exact duplicate that also contains memories and learned experiences. That, of course, blows a pretty big hole in Alien Resurrection right out of the gate. That being said, there's some interesting reading to be done on the subject both here and here, although neither really support the movie's central premise.Hybridization“I find it really interesting that when this baby comes out and Ripley is created, both are hybrids of alien and human. So the question is, can you splice together genes like that.” For this one, we couldn't resist going back to the National Human Genome Research Institute for some hard information. See also: Retroviruses.Tuskegee Experiment 26:50One of the darker chapters of American 20th Century history involved the deliberate infection of African-Americans with syphilis in order to study the disease over a period of time. It's monstrous that something like this was sanctioned by official government agencies, and we shouldn't forget that this is part of our recent past so that it never happens again.WANT MORE FROM DOES IT FLY?Just a reminder, if you haven't watched our exploration of Xenomorph biology as it was explored in the first Alien movie (which also happens to be one of our most popular episodes), now's a good time to get to it!Check out our episode on the most infamous moment in Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom, which just celebrated its 40th anniversary.

ROGUE COMMENTARY

Hello! Welcome to another edition of the exclusive audio commentary podcast hosted by me, David Hughes.  For this episode, we're joined by Swiss director Peter Luisi for a fascinating discussion about his new film The Last Screenwriter, the first film scripted entirely by A.I. – specifically ChatGPT4.0 Now, before you grab your pitchforks and burning torches and lay siege to Rogue Commentary HQ, hear me out: I'm staunchly, even militantly anti-A.I. in the arts. But when I heard that London's beloved Prince Charles Cinema had called off what was to be the world premiere of The Last Screenwriter because of blowback it receive online, I was disheartened, because it seemed that Peter's film was a genuine attempt to engage with the question of A.I. in film specifically, and that we desperately needed to have the kind of conversation the film should have, and would have, provoked. Instead, by shelving the screening, conversation as shut down. As I said in my subsequent piece for Time Out, I don't think the screening would have been cancelled if the film was being presented as an experimental film by a known quantity such as a Michael Winterbottom, a Steven Soderbergh or Mike Figgis. While not exactly a household name in his native Switzerland, Peter co-wrote his country's excellent Oscar entry for 2007, Vitus, and is the writer, director and producer of last year's Bonjour Switzerland, the 8th most successful Swiss film of all time, and the biggest-grossing film in Switzerland since the advent of streaming. The Last Screenwriter is now available online, for free, at lastscreenwriter.com and there's no need to have seen it before listening to Peter's commentary, but whether or not you've seen the film – and I would urge you to give it a watch – I think you'll find Peter's commentary as fascinating as I did.

Oh boy... What have we done to ourselves? In a moment of uncertainty we decided to double dip into the Winterbottom well. We knew we were going to review this film "at some point" BUT we didn't really know what we were letting ourselves in for. The "arthouse/mainstream/romantic/concert film" is only 69 (lol) minutes long but it feels like it's relatively short runtime. A film that depicts heavily gratuitous un-simulated sexual acts performed by our lead couple, some scenes depicting our lead character's job as a glaciologist (!) and 9 (counted and confirmed) songs of musical acts of the time performing at Brixton Academy in London. If you thought that it would add up to the sum total of "nothing" you'd be close. If you thought it was a bit of a shallow, uncomfortable experiment that doesn't really justify its needs and the pressure put on its performers, you may also be right. If you think its a bit pretentious, you'd also be on the right track. See what we have to say in one of our personal favourite breakdowns of a film we've done in a while.

The film that blew Chai's mind? Michael Winterbottom's 2002 In This World, which blurs the lines of fiction and documentary to convey the story of an Afghani boy's journey from a Pakistani refugee camp to London. She joins Cooper and Tabitha to explore the finer points of Winterbottom's film and dives into questions of truth vs fiction, the nuances of working with real-life characters, and how the relationships she cultivates with her participants are essential to her filmmaking craft.

We used this conversation to tap into their creativity and to dig down into the collaboration that can happen between a Director and Designer to ultimately create the best work. This conversation covers:   -What is a Production Designer? -What was her journey into the industry? -How do Production Designers inform their process? -How do Production Designers elevate story and character? -What is the relationship between the Designer, the DoP and Director? -What makes a good Director? -What is the nature of art, creativity and authenticity?   Jacqueline Abrahams originally trained in Fine Art, specialising in performance and live art. She worked as a scenic painter for four years before moving into design where she has worked to design feature films, shorts, TV dramas, theatre, performance and live art. She is experienced working with scripts, on improvised pieces and with artists in a less conventional context.  She has designed productions that have large ambitious studio set builds, completed location-based work and has experience working within very strict budgets too which is always good. She won the BAFTA in 2009 for best production design for TV series Wallander, was nominated for a BAFTA in 2010 and won the RTS Best Production Design award in 2010 also. Jacqueline's notable credits include TV series Wallander, Diary of a Call Girl and the original series of Topboy and feature films such as The BIFA winning The Look of Love (2013) from Michael Winterbottom, The Lobster (2015) by Yorgos Lanthimos, as well as Lady Macbeth (2015) by William Oldroyd and His House (2018) by Remi Weekes.   Nuggets of the week   Oz: Greta Gerwig's Official Barbie Watchlist Marcus:  BIFA Insider: The Lobster with Jacqueline Abrahams Kwellin: You can't live life without taking risks.

In this (more reasonable-length) half of our episode, we take a look at Michael Winterbottom's 24 Hour Party People, a story about the rise of a specific slice of the New Wave era of music in the early 1980s. It's a mostly-true story (we talk about that a little bit) told from the point of view of someone who was in the middle of it all. And again, we're getting it from a fan who's managed to inject himself into the story. It's a lot of fun and has a bit of a documentary feel because of the cinematography and the editing style. Get in there and enjoy it. COMING ATTRACTIONS: In Episode 49 we check out a pair of films that involve thieves, specifically female thieves. First up is Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon (2000), directed by Ang Lee. From there we check out a slightly lesser-known film called Widows, a caper film from 2018 directed by Steve McQueen that could be compared to, say, Ocean's Eleven but maybe don't make that kind of comparison. If you haven't seen it, by all means do so.
