Can someone explain the "snatch every motherfucker birthday" meme?

I unironically like this meme

best forced meme of this year 2bh

Where my Brettbros at?

You are all fucking retarded

Right....

ywn smash lamberts boypussy

Lambert was my waifu until I saw Ripley in her tighty whities

Every fucking day. Every single fucking day when i come to the bridge this little faggot just sits there and gives me this stupid look on his face.

>all these braindead post-baneposters trying to be the one who forces the next baneposting with zero understanding of why baneposting happened in the first place

I'll cringe for you, for you lack the self-awareness to cringe for yourself.

>avoiding talking about the bonus situation
le shiggy bonustello

you must have mastered 47 forms of martial arts to understand

the cat was controlling the alien all along

he wanted everyones bonuses for himself

Forced memes general.

Right.

>Come here user, I have a suprise for you...

The bonus is the key to all this

what is bonus situation? new meme?

holy shit I've watched the movie 9,312 times and I never even realized this.

I enjoy the bonus situation posting, but I feel it's bouncing against the walls already. Alien is a minimalist movie and I'm worried we're running out of characters and their role in the bonus situation.

...right

Which is precisely why we need to discuss the boners situation

It'll merge with another meme before dying.
>Baneus Situation?

we are guaranteed by law to get boners

not for long

Do I get a bonus for posting ITT ?

20th century fox's viral advertising team really outdid themselves, this bonus situation meme is great. it plays on Sup Forums's appreciation for the original alien film, utilizes a fun quotable moment that is easy to insert into other franchise-related media to perpetuate the meme, and it promotes diversity by calling attention to an empowered black character. this meme has already drastically improved brand recognition and favorability in the buildup to Alien Covenant and Alien 5. The marketing exec in charge should get a raise.

i thought it was a generally accepted fact that only Alien, Aliens, and Alien3 are canon. and that all other movies in the series are fucking garbage (including the ones that haven't come out yet)

You finally figured it out.

why is she so qt?

No, only retards think that, Resurrection was better than 3

Who here remembers Colonial Marines?

[post yfw Hicks was still alive]

There's been some confusion over the past few days. All you have to do is watch the opening credits (pic related).

>The marketing exec in charge should get a raise.
or perhaps a bonus ?

Are you trying to give me a raging bonus with that pic?

Right

"The minute the baby alien bursts out of John Hurt's stomach is always the moment I lose interest in this film. Why? Because it is here that class issues are displaced by the struggle against the one enemy, the alien. Parker stops complaining about bonuses (class issues) and focuses on killing the killer monster. But this displacement is, in reality, more dangerous to Parker and Brett than the alien. Recall 9/11. It came down to the same thing. The anti-capitalist globalization movement (WTO) was displaced by the war on terror (WTC). I bring this up because as class tensions increase in our moment, the post-neoliberal moment, the moment when market ideology is in a state of crisis, it's important to ask who would benefit the most from an alien something, before the eyes of everyone, bursting out of the nervous guts/conditions of our times?"

It's a webm

>other white people

Nice touch.

The biggest flaw Ridley made with Alien is that he never resolved the bonus situation.

The movie starts, and in one of the very first scenes, we hear about issues with the bonus situation, so you know it must have been important. It had me curious right off the bat, and scene after scene came, but they never discussed the bonus situation. I figured that when Kane was in his coma, Scott would have taken that opportunity to finally discuss the bonus situation, but the next thing you know, we get the chestburster scene, and the alien arrives, which was cool and all, but I couldn't help thinking to myself "what about the g'damn bonus situation!?".

Then, one by one, the alien starts killing the crew, and it was at this point that I figured Scott wasn't even going to address the bonus situation, which was fucked up, but I held out and figured that Ridley wouldn't let such an obviously important plot device go unresolved. But no. He did.

When we finally lose Parker and Lambert, I knew we'd never have the answer. The ending was cool with the "lucky star" shit and the ejection from the shuttle, but all I could think about was how I would be left forever wondering about the bonus situation, and why it never got resolved.

I hate Ridley Scott for that to this day.

I really wish this was a webm so I could see how long it is and skip around.

>cin: So where did the idea of the bonus situation come from?
>>Scott: This was something I added to the script because of my initial troubles trying to get the budget approved, and as soon as I mentioned the bonus situation, I got exactly what I asked for...well, almost.
>cin: You introduce the bonus situation early in the film, but then...
>>Scott: Right, I did that intentionally to capture the attention of the audience. I'd already shown them the Nostromo, and the crew, but I needed something special to really make sure I had the audience with me, and then it hit me: the bonus situation. Who isn't intrigued by the bonus situation? How does it work? Who's in charge of it? You know who isn't intrigued by the bonus situation? Nobody, that's who.
>cin: No doubt, you had my attention right off the bat....it was like, wow, big ship, cool....nice space shots....the crew seems alright...whoa...wait a minute...hold on, go back, what's this about a bonus situation!?
>>Scott: (laughs)I know, right? I still get asked about the bonus situation I'd say, oh, about monthly. It had a greater impact than I thought.
