I watched the original Alien with my 12 year old son last night. I expected him to think it was "old" or "slow/boring", but to my delight he absolutely loved it. It was fun seeing his surprise at
the chest burster scene and the reveal that the Xenomorph was on the shuttle.
I was shocked that he didn't see any of it coming/hadn't been exposed to the infamous scenes. He reacted most to the moments I mentioned above, but he really loved the whole movie, including those moments you mentioned. Even this morning, one of the first things he said to me was "Man, I hate Lambert". Parker was his favorite by a mile.I feel like the birth is generally well known to most folks these days through pure pop culture osmosis but the real MVP nowadays is the
, how did he do with that?crew expendable/Ash reveal

Thanks Ru. Yeah, I think i'm just going with a Xenomorph Pop for him for now.Neca did one, but.... Neca is a slippery damned slope, especially with Aliens and Predators.
