(How It Stacks) How It Stacks #23: Alien and Aliens

"We're on an express elevator to hell, going down!!"

Alien and Aliens are our attempt to redeem ourselves on the newest episode of H.I.S.! It's a hysterical episode about one of Sci-Fi's most legendary franchises. JD, Willis, and Bulldog go into the inner working of the franchise and reveal what the creators really had in mind for the viewers.  JD reveals how terrified of Alien he was as a kid and remembers the terminator that lived in his living room.  Professor confesses that the movie that freaked him was The Fugitive! It's another all over the place episode full of one liners like "I didn't know this movie took place in the jungle" (you'll have to listen for that to make sense.  Terminator VS Predator VS Alien ??!! Hell, at one point Bulldog compares Exo-Squad to Ripley's loading mech. This is another classic episode that you don't want to miss.

" GAME OVER, MAN. GAME OVER!!! "

Crazy factoid the guys forgot. Bill Paxton is the only actor to have been killed by an alien, a predator , and a terminator.
