12->''"One of the great joys of ''Alien'' was that, when they land on LV-426 th-they come across this alien planet, they land on this planet and there is an alien spaceship that they don't know anything about and there is an alien race that they don't know anything about. All they know is that a parasitic creature has apparently killed everyone on that ship, and the parasitic creature then makes its way onto humans. They're the next thing that's in the line. And there's a brilliant kind of intersection, it's just like a random thing ... And now what we've got into is a cycle of movies that are '''about''' the backstory, which actually isn't even what ''Alien'' is about. It was never about that. It was some brilliant sense of coincidence."''
