When watching the Alien movies as a kid I never noticed all of the sexual subtexts. Now watching it again recently and reading this article, it made me think. It really has a lot of sexual undertone.
Ripley has many scenes where she is barely clothed, and I noticed a lot of pornographic posters in rooms of the ship. Also the craziest of them all when Ash could have killed Ripley in many, many other ways. He decied to roll up a magazine and stuff it down her throat.......Yeah. No words need to be said, you know what I'm talking about. Lastly when Lambert is trapped up agaist a wall, the Alien seems to being playing with her, its tail moving around between her legs before finally killing her.
Now if knowing stuff like this is making people money and helping them get through life. Maybe more people should take up Media Studies and learn the way!
