Maryland PhilHOST
In the first movie, it's only just referred to as the company.
Maryland PhilHOST
I mean, Cameron's movie is what put the Weyland-Yutani name on
Joe KWHOST
it.
Joe KWHOST
And then expanded that there are a lot of robots, and it's very common, and some of them are fine.
Joe PatrickHOST
Uh, and you know what? It goes on from there, yada, yada, yada.
Joe PatrickHOST
So it's essentially what if the grandson of Weyland got put in charge of Weyland-Yutani and then fucked it all up? [laughs] And this issue is like a precursor to the main series.
Joe PatrickHOST
This was actually published and released this past Saturday, uh, which was Local Comic Shop Day.
Joe PatrickHOST
I did not even know that there was such a thing-
Andrew OverbyHOST
Marsalis.
Hannah BlechmanHOST
Blue Marsalis, a brilliant scientist working on a Weyland-Yutani space station nicknamed the Cold Forge due to the lethal weapons developed therein, and they're so far out in space, they're in such a dangerous place.
Andrew OverbyHOST
Yeah, the cold part is really just we're in space.
Andrew OverbyHOST
They could-
Hannah BlechmanHOST
We're in space
Andrew OverbyHOST
...
Andrew OverbyHOST
Weyland-Yutani could be calling everything the cold blank, the cold gas station, 'cause it's a gas station in space.
Hannah BlechmanHOST
This, this forge, frankly, seems hot too.
Scout TafoyaGUEST
They fucking ruined the Coleridge Corner movie theater, which is where I saw The Departed last time.
Scout TafoyaGUEST
It looks like Weyland-Yutani built it or something.
Scout TafoyaGUEST
It's crazy.
Scout TafoyaGUEST
charmless now.
ChrisHOST
Um, and when the t- twist, if you can call it that, gets revealed that Paul Reiser's character is a real shithead, um, even though I think when you're watching it, you get the sense that maybe he's not...
ChrisHOST
You know, he wants to capture the xenomorph for his corp- for, um, Weyland-Yutani, and, like, the whole thing is they wanna harness it for their bio weapons division.
ChrisHOST
We all know the story.
ChrisHOST
We all know that, that big piece of, um, Alien lore.
Will SmithHOST
The place that feels bad is when you're desoldering RAM because you can't buy RAM because it's being gobbled up by
Brad ShoemakerHOST
Weyland-Yutani.
Brad ShoemakerHOST
I saw a headline the other day that the Raspberry Pi people have now locked out in firmware changing the RAM on a Raspberry Pi.
Brad ShoemakerHOST
Did you see this? I did not see this.
AndreaHOST
We are also introduced to the medic sister who is actually on an Island.
AndreaHOST
Um, she's part of a rival company for Wayland Yutani, um, which is called prodigy.
AndreaHOST
run by a boy genius who has invented a way for human consciousness to be downloaded into androids.
AndreaHOST
And the sister is one of our test subjects.
Kevin LehaneHOST
It sort of felt like, oh, I can see all his influences here.
Kevin LehaneHOST
But is there a connection to the Alien movies? with these games is there like Wayland Yutani is there like Mrs.
Kevin LehaneHOST
Yutani is in this you sure
Will CollinsHOST
really I'm pretty sure oh my god if there is it just would be wasn't there some
Matt McManusGUEST
And so instead of producing art that has a futural sensibility in the sense that we like to envision new futures, new ways of doing things that are really radically different, instead what we start to see is a kind of techno-utopian or techno-optimism in the sense that we think, well, technology will change even if the mode of production will remain the same.
Matt McManusGUEST
Think about the Alien movies, right? You know, where we might be flying across the universe, but Weyland-Yutani is still, you know, very, very much a hyper-capitalist company that's colonizing Mars and beyond.
Matt McManusGUEST
now right uh or you know think about um the avengers movies that's a really good example i think of what jameson is talking about uh because with this lack of futural sensibility what we do is we kind of recycle images from previous historical time periods where people did actually think uh there was something worth fighting for that we could change things uh so you know you have a norse god that's fighting alongside a cold war spy who's fighting alongside a world war ii soldier Who's fighting along, you know, a tech billionaire from the present era.
Matt McManusGUEST
You get it.
Tim GloverGUEST
As you're watching the film, it's constantly telling and the company itself.
Tim GloverGUEST
I mean, to me, the company was kind of inspired by like Weyland-Yutani, you know, like it's like this overseeing, you know, corporate entity.
Tim GloverGUEST
And even, you know, introducing Dr. Callas and Alex's talk, like the way I wanted to film that was like, you know, it's these kind of French overs because you're not really supposed to be in the room with them.
Tim GloverGUEST
And the thing that they're talking about is, even the way it's lit, like it's a little secretive, but as you watch the film, you'll kind of come to understand like, oh, this is actually a pretty big deal about her and her life.
