Alien (Franchise)	comment	Alien is a multimedia film franchise created by Dan O'Bannon and Ronald Shusett, that codified science fiction Body Horror. The franchise, which spans films, novels, comic books, and video games, helped to launch the careers of creators like Ridley Scott, James Cameron, and Sigourney Weaver.The series revolves around the "Xenomorphs", alien monsters with acid blood that spawn by bursting out of other organisms' chests and try to kill or...bring to the hive just about anything that isn't them. Most works involve humans encountering the creatures, with horrific results. The monsters' designs were the work of H. R. Giger.A wide array of crossover works with Fox's other famous science fiction alien monster, the Predator, also exist. For more information on those, see the Alien vs. Predator page. See also Xenomorph Xerox for similar creatures in other franchises.

Alien (Franchise) / int_1073963d	type	Psychosexual Horror
Alien (Franchise) / int_1073963d	comment	Psychosexual Horror: The titular creature is rife with Freudian imagery and was originally created as an explicit rape allegory. The facehugger phase of the creature has a vagina-like opening with a phallic proboscis that orally violates the victim. The chestburster itself is entirely phallic-shaped. The adult phase features a similarly phallic head shape, and the way it kills Lambert is rife with sexual assault undertones.

Kenner's Aliens toyline introduces the alien-animal hybrids Arachnid, Boar, Bull, Cougar, Crab, Gorilla, Mantis, Panther, Rhino, Scorpion, Snake, and Swarm. Each includes an Aliens: Space Marines mini-comic giving further details. The Alien King and Queen Face Hugger/Giant Face Hugger may be related to alien varieties in other media. A Jockey-Xenomorph appears in the comic Aliens: Apocalypse and the game Aliens: Infestation. This form is unlikely now that Prometheus changed the earlier Space Jockey concept into the Engineers.

Alien (Franchise) / int_1161fb48	comment	Bizarre Alien Biology: The xenomorphs' caustic "blood" is more akin to battery acid than the nutrient distribution matrix other creatures have. It reacts with the metals the xenomorphs absorb from their meals to generate electricity, which they live off of. They also have a "mesoskeleton" of polarized silicon, basically meaning their hides are made of glass. Their nails and teeth are made of a silver-colored metallic material, possibly iron. Their tongues have their own mouth (when it's not adapted into a resin-secreting proboscis in the case of the Worker). Under their cranial shell/frontal lobe area is a remarkably human skull. They absorb traits from the species they parasitize, and their reproductive process is more or less haplodiplontic (a seed produces a number of highly mutable spores that grow into a more adapted offspring, something only seen in certain fungi on Earth).

In Aliens, each crew member's helmet camera and vital signs are hooked to a screen and any time somebody dies, their screen goes static. Happens repeatedly in one scene in Alien: Resurrection, as the Space Marines get picked off one by one.

Alien (Franchise) / int_177a6464	type	Genre Shift
Alien (Franchise) / int_177a6464	comment	Genre Shift: The "quadrilogy" all share a narrative, yet are all wildly different from each other. The first film is a cinema verite-style look at space truckers who find themselves in a sci-fi Slasher Film. The script is sparse and eschews exposition in favor of suggestion and lets the visionary visuals carry the story. The second film is a muscular '80s action film with a tight script and flawless pacing that sets up and knocks down plot points with mechanical precision. It also delves into the trauma the Retired Badass heroine of the first film has to deal with, as part of its "Vietnam in space" allegory. The third film attempted to return to the style of the first film, but its director, who cut his teeth on music videos, lends it a sumptuous stylized industrial atmosphere and tried his damnedest to make the eight different scripts he was handed work as a cohesive whole. The oppressively apocalyptic air punctuated by hopeful Christian spirituality (aided by Eliot Goldenthal's ecclestically-tinged score) also helps it stand out from its two predecessors, for better or for worse. The fourth film is American postmodern wittiness meets French postmodern weirdness. The direction shifts from operatic to self-depreciating with no rhyme or reason and the script was allegedly written as camp but is played with straight-laced seriousness. Trying to reconcile the sheer oddness on display with the grimy industrial aesthetic of the first three films is liable to make your head blow apart.

When Alien 3 killed the characters off, future printings of the comic changed their names to Billie and Wilks, though this seems an odd choice in retrospect, as their backstories remained identical and the comics had diverged so sharply from the movies by that point that keeping them in step with one another seems irrelevant.

In the original Alien, Ash's directive to preserve the lifeform even at the expense of the crew evolves into a strange admiration for the creature as well as a peculiar sadism, particularly toward Ripley. In Alien: Covenant, David goes completely off his programming and begins to develop a god complex. Bishop in Aliens and Alien 3 averts this, explained as having stricter safeguards than the one that went against the crew in the first film. But by Alien: Resurrection, androids have been outlawed with orders to "destroy on sight" because some of them started to make "children".

Alien (Franchise) / int_44bd31e2	comment	Trope Codifier: The series as a whole is this for Used Future, along with Star Wars (which Cameron cites as a direct inspiration). Aliens in particular defined the Standard Human Spaceship visual style for humans and their military tech in a Standard Sci Fi Setting. Babylon 5, FreeSpace, StarCraft, Halo, and Mass Effect (to name a few) all draw on it. In a case of a work codifying tropes for an entirely different medium, the films cemented a number of formulae embraced by First-Person Shooters and Third-Person Shooters several years after the second film. The gun-floating-on-the-bottom-of-the-screen P.O.V. Cam and target-centered Over the Shoulder shots from the Marine gunner's incursion and Ripley's final assault on the hive, for instance, are prototypes for the standard screen layouts of both genres, as well as the cramped hallway sieges that defined the early days of 3D shooters. The gunner's flashy heavy weaponry, the grenade launcher on the assault rifles, and Ripley's kludged-together multi-firearm, meanwhile, together established a precedent that ensured the future prominence of tropes like Gatling Good, Swiss-Army Gun, Secondary Fire, Walking Armory, and the BFG.

Alien (Franchise) / int_66181568	comment	Outgrown Such Silly Superstitions: Averted. The first two films are silent about religion, but In AlienÂ³ the inmates of the prison colony have got religion. In Alien: Resurrection the space station has a chapel, and one character makes the Sign of the Cross upon entering, which is a typically Catholic observance and a somewhat old-fashioned one at that. This character is later revealed to be an android, and there is a mention of androids investigating religion for a morality which is chosen, rather than imposed through programming. In Prometheus, Elizabeth Shaw is a Christian. Not much is made of this, but she clearly keeps her faith; her last act is to give the date, in the style "year of Our Lord."

Their franchise consultant, scifi writer Andrew Gaska, who also sorted out Planet of the Apes canon, has declared that any expanded universe material that did not contradict the six main films can now be considered canon, including Alien: Isolation, the 40th Anniversary shorts, the Alien RPG, Aliens: Bug Hunt, and most of the later Dark Horse comics. Things that contradict the main film series, such Alien vs. Predator, the earlier Dark Horse comics, or Aliens: Colonial Marines, are labelled "barroom canon"; tall tales and rumours told by roughnecks and raconteurs in distant saloons.

Alien (Franchise) / int_7eda7f78	comment	Transformation Horror: Of the Slow Transformation subtype. As shown in a scene from the Alien - Director's Cut and novelization, and explained in Alien: The Roleplaying Game, an alien drone in the absence of a queen will instinctively abduct other creatures, bind them in its nest, and inject them via its tail with an invasive bacteria which will cause their body to gradually metamorphize into a new alien egg.note (This will continue as victims are available until one of the eggs produces a "royal" facehugger, which will in turn implant an embryonic queen into a host. Once a queen is born, she will produce eggs at a faster rate than the ovamorphic conversion and their numbers will rapidly increase as they move into the "hive" stage of their development.) If the creature being transformed is lucky, the alien will have smashed enough of its skull to leave it comatose through this process. If not, the creature may be fully aware of what's happening to it with no ability to move or stop it...

In the subsequent novelizations, Newt and Hicks were replaced by Billie and Wilks and Ripley was revealed to be a artificial person with implanted memories. The Out of the Shadows trilogy serves as a Continuity Reboot for the expanded universe, disregarding the comics and other novels, aside from a few little nods. The second book very nearly decanonized 3 and Resurrection as well, before Fox changed their mind and asked the author to include references to them. Neil Blompkamp's film was suggested to ignore 3 (and Resurrection by extension) due to early concept art featuring an older version of Newt, who had a bridge dropped upon her in the opening of that film.note Hicks was revealed to have survived in Aliens: Colonial Marines. Blomkamp clarified that his film would not be retconning them, while Sigourney Weaver indicated it would be set in an Alternate Timeline.

Though Ridley Scott said if he got to do a sequel six Engineers who weren't on the planet at the time would have shown up. The Colonial Marines in Aliens mention dealing with "Arcturians" but James Cameron refused to give much information about what they are (the interaction is in the context of sexual hijinks during R&R, which the Marines seemed eager to get back to). While there have been two crossover movies with the Predator franchise, Ridley Scott considers them non-canon and deliberately contradicted them when writing the backstory for Prometheus.

It also delves into the trauma the Retired Badass heroine of the first film has to deal with, as part of its "Vietnam in space" allegory.

One memorable scene from Alien: Resurrection involved an infectee bear-hugging the scientist responsible for his infection, forcing the Chestburster to go through his chest and the scientist's head, taking his murderer with him to the afterlife. This was actually done in the comic, many years before, but the artists had the creature enter the researcher's chest.

It's implied in Alien 3, shown in Alien Resurrection, confirmed in the comic book Labyrinth, and rejected in Colonial Marines. Other supplementary materials state that even if the chestburster were successfully removed, the host would eventually die of complications arising from the infection process. Alien: The Roleplaying Game took the position that infection is almost guaranteed terminal, as the incubating chestburster's placental sac grows cancer-like tendrils throughout the body to shunt nutrients from the host back to it as quickly as possible, and a host isn't likely to survive their removal.

Alien (Franchise) / int_e1636077	type	SchrÃ¶dinger's Canon
Alien (Franchise) / int_e1636077	comment	SchrÃ¶dinger's Canon: Possibly a messier one than fellow Fox-cum-Disney franchise Star Wars: First, the Dark Horse Comics Aliens comics, which followed older versions of Hicks, Newt, and Ripley on a new Alien-stomping adventure. Once AlienÂ³ came out, and those characters were all off the table, the stories were retconned to follow Suspiciously Similar Substitutes Wilks, Billie, and an android programmed to think she was Ripley. More expanded universe material was released, including the Aliens vs. Predator crossovers, until the Alien: Out of the Shadows trilogy rebooted the EU continuity, relegating all previous EU to Schrodinger's Canon. Interesting, part of the Shadows trilogy would have "observed false" AlienÂ³ and Alien: Resurrection, a rare case of an EU work decanonizing a prime media work, until Fox vetoed that. Ridley Scott took pains to decanonize the Aliens vs. Predator portion of the franchise with Prometheus and Covenant, leading to at least two EU continuities, one with Predators and one without. Then, new EU material, such as Alien: The Roleplaying Game and Aliens: Fireteam Elite again attempt to provide a single, cohesive version of the Alien 'Verse, making references to each other, and to some previously-decanonized EU. . . but make no real mention of the Shadows Trilogy or other works based on them. Notably, the Shadows trilogy decanonized the Praetorian caste of Alien, yet Praetorians appear in both the RPG and Fireteam. Neil Blomkamp's Alien film would have split the timeline again, being a direct sequel to Aliens and taking place in an alternate continuity. The end result is that any given piece of EU material can take place in at least one of five separate continuities: pre-Alien 3 (with Predators), post-Alien 3 (with Predators), post-Shadows (with or without Predators), post-Covenant (without Predators), or post-RPG (still without Predators, at least for now).

Alien (Franchise) / int_e16fb8ca	comment	Hero Killer: As under "The Hero Dies", a lot of heroic characters die because of the Xenomorphs, including the crews of the USCSS Nostromo and USS Sulaco. While this doesn't usually extend to heroes in their non-Predator franchise crossovers (though Superman, Orion, and Judge Dredd had close calls), the creatures being this trope was the case in the WildC.A.T.s crossover — only not for the WildCATs themselves, as Warren Ellis, who wrote the story as well as Stormwatch, decided to use the story to kill off the Stormwatch characters who weren't going to be part of The Authority.
