About this episode
This week we investigate James Cameron's " Aliens " (1986) with Clay Keller and Ryan Marker ( Screen Drafts ), and search for the scene at its center. This is a podcast about movies, and the scenes that make them special. Usually on our show, we explore a film we love, a new release, or ask our guests to bring a movie they can’t wait to talk about. But this week, and throughout the summer, we’re devoting our show to 20th Century Fox’s Alien Franchise.
