Way better than Star Wars. Alien might be the best set design of all time. Perhaps 2001 might have a word. But like 2001...I could watch Alien on mute and just look at it and be entertained.

I was watching the 1978 version of 'Invasion of the Body Snatchers' recently and it occurred to me....The first 90 seconds of that movie is better special effects and more beautiful to look at than every comic book movie ever made combined. I have to go see comic book movies to spend time with my family. It's worth it...but comic book movies are a modern cultural plague of our time lol. They have essentially destroyed filmmaking and I'm bitter as hell.
