A classic movie bean pod. This time around David Bell joins the conversation where the beans discuss the legacy, maneuvers, and storytelling of the OG Alien. We decided to do this after we all had contentious thoughts on Alien:Romulus. So consider this round two! Facehug!

If y'all didn't know, Ridley in Metroid was named after Ridley Scott in recognition of the huge influence the film had, and the decision to make the main character a woman came halfway through development, presumably inspired by Sigourney Weaver. Also, Samus would *wreck* a planet full of xenomorphs

OK best Disney princess to jettison into space. Jasmine, because she's essentialy a spoiled rich girl (literally didn't even understand what the word "pay was), and we don't need any more of those. Best Disney princess to have acid blood, Cinderella, because she could destroy her awful stepfamilys home every time they work her until her hands bleed.
