    300 // Aliens: Resurgence | Interviewing Writer/Director TrisRex

    In this episode, Perry and Jaime sit down with Aliens: Resurgence director TrisRex to explore his ambitious, labor-of-love fan film set twenty years after the events of James Cameron’s Aliens. What began as an idea during the uncertainty of 2021 evolved into a full-scale production, complete with pandemic challenges, practical builds, and even a Chicago windstorm that literally blew the set away. TrisRex walks us through the creative journey from concept to completion, sharing his deep love for the Alien universe, the grit it takes to bring a vision to life, and the passion that fuels independent filmmaking. This is a conversation about fandom, resilience, and the drive to create something meaningful inside a world we all care about. At Perfect Organism: The Alien Saga Podcast, we believe fandom is not just something to analyze, it’s something to champion. We’re proud to spotlight creators who expand the hive and keep the spirit of Alien alive in bold and inventive ways.

    299 // The Men of the Alien Saga

    A lot has been said—and rightfully so—about Ripley and how important she is to the history of the perception of women in Hollywood stories. But it's worth noting the many progressive, complex, and well-rendered male characters who also make the Alien series so special. Whether it's Dallas' steady leadership, Hicks' quiet kindness, or Dillon's redemptive (or is it?) arc, the Alien saga has many male characters worth celebrating. Today, Jaime, Patrick, Perry, Andie, and Micah do just that! // Join the new Perfect Organism subreddit!

    298 // ALIEN 3 | The Dream Theory

    In this episode, Patrick, Jaime, Perry, Andie and Micah discuss the "dream theory" that's surrounded Alien 3 since it's storied release in 1992. Why does this theory exist? What's behind it? We all try to answer these questions in our own way as re-engage a film that continues to be fiercely controversial while also gathering more support as each year passes. As with so many of our conversations, this was a spirited panel, and we hope you enjoy.

    297 // What's Happening With Alien: Romulus 2?

    In a shocking late-2025 announcement, we learned Fede Alvarez wouldn't be returning as director for the sequel to Alien: Romulus. Months later, we still don't know why—and we still have no idea who'll be directing in his place! On tonight's roundtable, the team spitballs about some scenarios. Should the story continue Rain and Andy's narrative? Who should direct it? What kind of tone should they aim for, and what do they need to get right to ensure it happens? Join us as we have some fun gathering together for some speculation! Tonight's episode also features our two newest team members: Mario Benvenuto and Kyle June! // Join the new Perfect Organism subreddit!

    The Perfect Organism Podcast strategy team in conversation about what truly makes ALIEN Alien.

    295 // What Makes an Alien Film an Alien Film? Part One

    A phrase we often throw around is "This (movie, TV show, book) feels like Alien." But what does that actually mean? In today's episode, Jaime and Patrick attempt to figure that out.
