Happy Alien Day 2018, ONTD!

What is Alien Day?
Alien Day is celebrated on April 26th as an official event organized by 20th Century Fox. It started in 2016 and it's celebrated with special releases, announcements, competitions, and even the original films are shown in some theaters around the world. Why April 26th? It's referencing the moon on which Aliens is set: LV-426.
For more info please see: http://avp.wikia.com/wiki/Alien_Day


IN RELEASES
Comics & Books:

A terrifying coming of age story by writer and artist Gabriel Hardman. Some of the films he storybaorded include Batman: The Dark Knight Rises, Logan, and Dawn of Planet of the Apes.

The Cold Forge, by author Alex White, adds to the Alien mythology as it continues after Hadley's Hope colony on LV-426, which was depicted in Aliens. Interview with the author at the source.

Music:
La La Land Records has released a limited edition of Alien 3 score.


EVENTS
There is a free-roaming VR experience, ALIEN: DESCENT, now open at the Outlets at Orange. More info here.

REMEMBERING THE MOVIES: BEHIND THE SCENES, INTERVIEWS, ETC
Rarely seen footage:



H.R. Giger at work on the original Alien.

Ridley Scott talking about how he landed the gig directing his iconic sci-fi horror.

  • Apparently he wasn't the first choice. And Fox was surprised when he said that he loved the script.

  • He storyboarded the whole film as negotiations took place over the course of a month.

  • He got the budget doubled from 4.2 million to 8.6 million.





THINK PIECES

  1. Sigourney Weaver practiced her slam dunk and got it on the sixth take.

  2. Alien 3's penal colony had no guns because Weaver demanded all guns be removed from the script.

  3. Meryl Streep was supposed to audition for Ripley, but didn't at the last minute.

  4. One of Joss Wedon's suggested endings for Alien Resurrection can be found here.

  5. We could have had a royal facehugger in Fincher's Alien 3 (it can be found in the "assembly cut" of the film).


Revisit why Ridley Scott's 1979 masterpiece is so lasting and relentless

  • Cool backstory that involves John Carpenter - he and Dan O’Bannon came up with an early version of Alien in what they called Star Beast. They parted ways and Carpenter told O'Bannon to keep the idea. 20th Century Fox was looking for a new project as its Dune project with Alejandro Jodorowsky was having issues in pre-production. O'Bannon gave them the script for Star Beast and the rest is history.

  • Article ponders how Alien got to the point of having its own "holiday" - going into the contradiction of the xenomorph, sexuality and birthing, the great direction by Ridley Scott, and the simple fact that Alien came out at just the right time in cinema.




FUNKO JOINS THE FUN
...by releasing an exclusive new Alien pop!

Did the Royal Family’s Website Accidentally Reveal the Name of William & Kate’s New Baby?

Each member of the family has his or her own special page that can be accessed by typing in their names or titles after the site’s URL.

The pages for William and Kate’s first two children, George & Charlotte load with “Access Denied” messages — as does their new sibling’s potential name.

Albert has been a strong contender ever since Kate gave birth.

Users who attempt to view pages using other presumably incorrect baby names get “Page Not Found” messages.

𝕊𝕦𝕡𝕖𝕣 𝔻𝕦𝕡𝕖𝕣 ℕ𝕠𝕧𝕒 - 𝕃𝕀ℤ

Liz is back with her JPOP/PC Music sound a la "Candyland" and "When I Rule the World" in "Super Duper Nova". Check it out below:



[Verse 1]
If I had it my way we would hit the highway in the sky
Like it was Friday, so kawaii in the disco lights
A karaoke ceremony with just you and I
It doesn't matter if you're green or blue or boy or girl
Because I love you, none above you, unconditional
And way up here, we got no fear, a modern miracle


[Pre-Chorus]
Let's make the moon rock, moon rock, moon rock
Show me how you rock, you rock, you rock
Let's make the moon rock, moon rock, moon rock
Erase the space between


[Chorus]
Cosmic, taking off to a galaxy
Bionic, where our love isn't fantasy
Very very far out, way up in the star rock
Super duper nova ride
Look at where we are now
We can do the countdown
5, 4, 3, 2, 1, blast off


[Drop]

[Verse 2]
We're splishy-splashy, going down
I wonder what it's like
And anyone who wants to tell us, "no", we say goodbye
We're getting stupider and Jupiter go dumb in flight
Up, up, up, the bubble
Up, up, up, we travel
An interstellar Benihana, it’s just you and I


[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus]

What does OP, only LIZ stan residing on ONTD, think of it?


It's cute and I like that she's more imaginative with the lyrics... but like with WIRTW, I'm not 100% on it. I don't care for drops in music. I see others who at least KNOW of LIZ think WIRTW is her only bop and gravitates towards it cause they're #fake music fans. It's always the songs I like the least that will catch on. #JUSTICEforQUEENofMeAndCouldULoveMe





I'm definitely looking forward to the next song in the coming weeks, and hopefully a visual.

Anthony Mackie on The Late Late Show with James Corden


-Judy went to Coachella, got prepared by getting an IV with vitamins to make sure she was ready to party in the desert
-Anthony not into Coachella, not here for the porta potties or the hot, sweaty, smelly people when you can go to an air conditioned venue with seats and relax and drink a little
-has seen Beyonce several times, saw her at MSG in the Beyhive section and got to hold her hand when she sang Halo
-Judy loved the performance, Beyonce is a super hero and she said Beyonce loved her because she said "I love each and every one of you."



-his father had a rule when his sons turned 13 they either had to get a job , go to school or get out of his house so every summer he went to work for his dad who had his own roofing company. The first summer he went his dad had on the "$7 dollar ninja shoes" and he had on Nikes because they're Nikes. They told him not to wear them but he did so anyway and went up onto the roof to take down the shingles. When he was doing so his foot slid and he rolled down the roof and flew down for about 3 seconds and hit the ground so hard. His dad asked him if he was alright and he said yeah then his father yelled at him "I told you not to wear them damn Nikes!" He then went with his dad to Walgreens to buy the ninja shoes.



-talks about Infinity War, Judy was waiting for her call (she is in Ant Man, plays the ex wife of Paul Rudd's character Scott Lang)
-Anthony's kids are into Spider Man and the Hulk

Mark Ruffalo on The Late Late Show with James Corden


-Mark says nothing about the film
-the KGB are really good at their job except for letting a fan jump into his car on the way to the premiere thinking she was his publicist, she was so excited to be in the car and so was he and she asked him to give something to Tom Hiddleston

Chris Hemsworth on Ellen


-talks about meeting koalas, being the tourism ambassador for Australia
-talks about surfing with his children and surfing with his daughter on his back when a storm is coming

-Talks about Matt Damon going to Australia and Chris telling him it is safe, Damon's daughter gets stung by a jellyfish and Chris tells him it was a one off and then he comes back again and Damon almost steps on a huge snake when he is getting out of the car. Chris told him he is the problem not Australia.


-talks about about filming and celebrating all of Chris' shirtless scenes, enjoy
Chris Hemsworth, Chadwick Boseman, Karen Gillan, Sebastian Stan and Josh Brolin on Jimmy Kimmel Live

-Sebastian's mom saw Black Panther and called him afterwards telling him he lied about being in the film and he asked did she stay until the very end and she said no
-everyone needs to stay until the very end after the credits and many of them were very surprised during the movie that Chadwick yelled out "no they didn't" when they were watching the film
-Mark convinced Brolin to do the film and told him what the process would feel like



-scene from the film, Thor in the Guardians ship
-Hemsworth fed Pratt Kangaroo meat
-social gatherings on set, people did not recognize Stan at the photoshoot and Brolin just realized it was him
-Karen does not get recognized a lot and lately people think she is Sophie Turner
-they do not say anything about the film and who knows what happens in the next film, "some" are excited for the next film

  • Back in November of last year, Paramount announced that it was producing a feature-film adaptation of the popular Canadian television anthology from the '90s.
  • The script is being penned by the writer, Gary Dauberman, of the recent IT revamp. Dauberman is producing the movie with Matt Kaplan.
  • This week at CinemaCon, Paramount unveiled the official logo for the movie with the date "October 11, 2019" written underneath. The logo may be altered later.
  • What Dauberman had to say about the logo and movie: "The show is about the shared experience of telling stories — especially scary ones. We’re going to celebrate that with this movie and honor the darker, scarier tone of the show, which was really groundbreaking for Nickelodeon at the time. I hope the Midnight Society approves."

To invoke the original film's colorful aesthetic, the luncheon had cool lighting for the clip premiere:


"disturbing body horror"


"one of the most fucked up things i've ever seen at CinemaCon"


"incredible ... gnarly"


responding to someone's claim that an audience member threw down their napkin and walked out during the clip:


"will haunt me for the rest of my life"


"now the thing i need to see"


LOVING THIS CONCEPT!

Cardi B is being sued by former manager Klenord “Shaft” Raphael. She left late last month for Solid Foundation (she joins rappers Migos — one of whom, Offset, is her fiancé).
Since 2015 Shaft has played an integral role in developing her music career and public image. 
He claims that he orchestrated Cardi B’s relationship with VH1’s “Love & Hip Hop: New York.”
He helped her to connect with songwriters and producers, to secure label and publishing deals.

a pair of texts:
Cardi B texted Shaft: "I’m not fucking with you nomore you dead ass doing me [] Grimmey."
Offset contacted Shaft : "[U] better stop play acting like u don’t know u taking her shit from her u a snake. U can’t hide from me Nigga and u not bout to play my WIFE.”

-Follow up to this post

- Trump took time away from his triple stacked sausage McGriddle to thank Kanye West and Chance the Rapper for “opening” the eyes of the people.

- Kanye West has been fangirling over DJT for the past two days and tried to defend his support of a white supremacist as “free thinking”. He’s received a ton of backlash from fans and colleagues (not enough).

- Noted Obama groupie Chance the Rapper snapped on his Twitter cape to defend Kanye West by saying that “black people didn’t have to be Democrats”. Twitter rightfully called him out on his shitty deflection tactics and he fell back.

- Guess that praise from DJT weighed on his conscience because Chance posted an apology this morning on Twitter.

Kanye also dropped a freestyle for TMZ’s cameras while wearing a MAGA hat:

Kenya Bans Lesbian Love Story ‘Rafiki’ Ahead Of Cannes Debut

Kenyan authorities have banned Cannes-bound LGBT love story Rafiki, saying it promotes lesbianism, which is illegal in the country. 
“Anyone found in its possession will be in breach of law,” (a colonial-era national law under which gay sex carries a sentence of 14 years in jail.)



Film director Wanuri Kahiu said :
“I’m really disappointed because Kenyans already have access to watch films that have LGBT content, on Netflix, and in international films shown in Kenya and permitted by the classification board itself…So to then just ban a Kenyan film because it deals with something already happening in society just seems like a contradiction.”
