The Worst Part of My Favorite Movie

1986 - Aliens (with Katie Walsh)

Jonathan Foster and Tripp von Weeks Season 2 Episode 7

Film critic Katie Walsh (Tribune News Service, Los Angeles Times) braves facehuggers, chestbursters, and hordes of xenomorphs to talk about James Cameron's "Aliens." We discuss the evolution of Cameron's storytelling as his movies have become more ambitious, examine producer Gale Anne Hurd's role as "Cameron Whisperer" during the early phase of his directing career, and reflect on what makes "Aliens" such a satisfying sequel. Plus, we debut a brand new segment called Good Movie/Bad Movie! (Special thanks to the Weyland-Yutani Corporation for sponsoring this episode.)
