    242 // ALIEN DAY: Interviewing Christian Kennedy, Director of No Man's Land (2024)

    242 // ALIEN DAY: Interviewing Christian Kennedy, Director of No Man's Land (2024)

    There's a saying in Hollywood: if you want to get your film made, be able to pitch it in an elevator ride. The setup for No Man's Land, Christian Kennedy's mega-hit Alien fan film, is about as pitchable as it gets: "Battlefield I meets Aliens."
    Of course, a pitch will only get you so far. The execution is where the real magic happens. And Christian's film—which is just under 30 minutes long and has already racked up nearly 4.5 million views—is a masterclass in execution.
    With killer cinematography, great effects, period-accurate costuming, and some great xenos, No Man's Land has been a massive hit with Alien fans since its release just two months ago.
    In this Alien Day special, Jaime and Perry discuss the film with Christian and learn how he brought such an ambitious vision to life without a massive Hollywood budget.
    Make sure you watch the film first! You can do so here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h5Fnlq2T0Vg&t=1459s
    Happy Alien Day 2024 from all of us at Perfect Organism!

    We were so excited when Alien Romulus conceptual designer Nick Stath agreed to an interview! In this very special discussion, Stath takes us through what it was like to be chosen to work on Romulus, each step as a designer, expectations and being able to walk through the sets he designed.

Hands Like Nathan ,

I love this podcast!

This is a must listen for Alien fans. I am wondering if you have on any thoughts on whether Disney will put in an Alien attraction at one of the parks, similar to what they have for Star Wars.

In Space, No One Wants 2 Know Ur WOKE

Generally an enjoyable and thoughtful podcast right up until Episode #204 when host Jaime Prater felt it necessary to make his personal socio-political observations known when a random comment included author J.K. Rowling. <SMH> Suffice to say; unsubscribing was an appropriate response.
