In this special collaborative interview with Yutani Podcast, JM and MUTHUR9000 talk to Adam Johansen and Damian Martin of the prolific effects house Odd Studio. Odd Studio (along with Creatures Inc) provided many of the astonishing makeup, creature, and prosthetic effects in Alien: Covenant.

It's been a year since Alien: Covenant released around the world. The hosts at Perfect Organism Podcast and its contributing co-hosts sit down to talk about how the film sits with them a year later and how the fandom is processing the film, and so much more. This was a spirited, and sometimes very tense discussion as hosts Patrick, JM, Mykal, MUTHUR9000, and Dave put into words the complicated relationship that some of us have with the film, as well as the surprising new love that others are feeling for it. Sit back and enjoy.

It's easy to write off Alien Resurrection as the black sheep of the Alien Saga. Whether you love it or you hate it—or both at the same time—you can't deny there's a lot to talk about. In this riotous roundtable, Ryan, Patrick, MUTHUR9000, and Dave revisit this crazy film and try to figure out what works and what doesn't. Along the way, they deal with some pretty deep questions: Is Dave's dad a prophet? Was Michael Wincott the inspiration for Christian Bale's Batman voice? How much K-Y Jelly is too much K-Y Jelly? As we come closer to the end of our In Defense of Alien 3 series, we're excited to launch this new miniseries on Resurrection.  Anyone up for some basketball?  // For more on this and our other projects, please visit www.perfectorganism.com. // If you’d like to join the conversation, find us on our closed Facebook group: Building Better Worlds // To support the show, please consider visiting www.perfectorganism.com/support.

At long last, our In Defense of Alien 3 miniseries has arrived at the final shooting script for Alien 3—a strange, wild thing that somehow pulled itself through years of development hell and emerged a dark masterwork. Ringing with the echoes of all the stories and creators that had come (and left) before, Giler and Hill’s final script is a crazy journey. In this episode, Ryan, JM, and Patrick come together to walk through the actual script as it appears on the page. Along the way, they analyze their favorite moments from the film and discuss why, in their opinions, Alien 3 deserves to be held up as an enduring masterpiece. // For more on this and our other projects, please visit www.perfectorganism.com. // If you’d like to join the conversation, find us on our closed Facebook group: Building Better Worlds // To support the show, please consider visiting www.perfectorganism.com/support.

After months of infighting, confusion, and generalized crankiness, the Alien fan community rejoiced as one this past week in the wake of two big announcements: a new video game and a new comic! In this episode, Ryan, Patrick, Dave, and Mykal have an especially raucous roundtable discussion about the big news. Along the way, they go deep into their personal histories with in-universe video games—the good ones, the bad ones, the weird ones, the ones that got seized as evidence by the FBI when they were children, and much more. It was great fun to record this episode; we hope it’s just as fun to listen to. // For more on this and our other projects, please visit www.perfectorganism.com. // If you’d like to join the conversation, find us on our closed Facebook group: Building Better Worlds // To support the show, please consider visiting www.perfectorganism.com/support.

As Alien fans, we’ve become used to change. Different directors; different scripts; different planets; different eras; different timelines; even different film studios. With everything so constantly in flux, it’s easy to forget that Alec Gillis and Tom Woodruff, Jr. have been there since nearly the very beginning. From their pioneering work on Aliens, to the foundation of the legendary Amalgamated Dynamics, Inc., Gillis and Woodruff have been at the vanguard of the effects industry for more than three decades. In this exclusive, unprecedented interview, our very own JM Prater visited Gillis and Woodruff at Studio ADI in Hollywood for a sit-down conversation about their love for the Alien Saga, their relationships with the fans, and much, much more. // For more on this and our other projects, please visit www.perfectorganism.com. // If you’d like to join the conversation, find us on our closed Facebook group: Building Better Worlds // To support the show, please consider visiting www.perfectorganism.com/support.

Recent events—the announcement of the acquisition of 21st Century Fox by the Walt Disney Company; controversial proclamations by Ridley Scott on the future of the franchise; a surprise Instagram post by Neill Blomkamp offering never-before-seen conceptual art for his Alien 5 project; among others—have Alien fandom whipped into a frenzy.

I've been attempting to track down Charles de Lauzirika for many many years. Charles is an award-winning film director, and one of very few people who have been privy to the innerworkings of the worlds that legendary film director Ridley Scott has created over the course of several decades. After what felt like the impossible, Charles kindly granted Perfect Organism an interview. I am honored and pleased to share that conversation with you now.   -JM

In what is our longest show ever, clocking in at over 2.5 hours, JM, Ryan, and Patrick are joined by our roundtable hosts Mykal and Dave, and special guest MUTHUR9000. This is a really special episode as we talk to MUTHUR9000 about her entry into the world of Alien, her first memories, favorite scenes, and her opinion on Alien: Covenant. This episode is a second chapter in an ongoing and heated discussion over Alien: Covenant, and Ridley Scott's latest comments that have proven incredibly divisive among the fans. The last hour of the show, Ryan, Patrick and JM read our user feedback and comments.

JM and Patrick sit down for an impromptu discussion surrounding Ridley Scott's latest comments that the alien has run its course. These words have sent a shockwave through a VERY fractured and broken fandom, leaving many of us enraged, and scratching our heads. Patrick and JM upack this revelation.

In this in-depth episode, Patrick sets out to create the definitive account of his favorite unfilmed script: Vincent Ward and John Fasano's legendary Alien III, set on the wood-paneled planetoid of Arceon. You'll hear firsthand accounts by some of the creative forces behind this fascinating story, as well as extensive analysis of what might've worked, what might've flopped, and what ultimately survived into David Fincher's film. You'll also get the full background on how Ward was brought into the picture, where his unique ideas might've come from, and why he was ultimately ejected from the project. Patrick also goes through the script in detail, providing his own dramatic synopsis alongside tightly integrated music cues—hopefully giving some sense of what it might've felt like to watch the film, had it been made. Speaking of the script: if you'd like the read the complete thing, it's available here, for free!   // For more on this and our other projects, please visit www.perfectorganism.com. You'll find an expanded version of this episode there as well, in the form of this blog post! // If you'd like to join the conversation, find us on our closed Facebook group: search for "Building Better Worlds". // To support the show, please consider visiting www.perfectorganism.com/support.

In this minisode, Jaime discusses and summarizes David Twoy's Alien 3 script, what was derived from it, and ultimately utilized in the final version of the film. There is a scene by scene comparison of one particular moment in Twohy's script, and the audio from Fincher's version.

In this minisode—the first in a series of three—Ryan tackles the horrifying, fascinating script written by legendary sci-fi figure William Gibson all the way back in 1987. Gibson's script, which he titled Alien III, explodes with innovative ideas, memorable characters, and high-budget setpieces. Although it was never filmed (and indeed was followed by nearly a dozen subsequent script rewrites), Gibson's ghostly story has influenced subsequent Alien Saga films in some very real and noticeable ways—perhaps none more so than Alien: Covenant. Before we got Alien 3, we nearly had Alien III. This is its story.   * For more on this and our other projects, please visit www.perfectorganism.com. * If you'd like to join the conversation, find us on our closed Facebook group: search for "Building Better Worlds". * To support the show, please consider visiting www.perfectorganism.com/support.

This episode is the jumping off point for mini-series deep dive into many aspects of the now famous, storied, and troubled Alien 3. In the coming weeks and months, Perfect Organism will dissect everything from the incredible score by Elliot Goldenthal, to the creature design and effects, the reception the film received, and how the film was the first of many fissures into a very divided and polarized fan base.

Perfect Organism Podcast has been steadily at work on a feature-length audio drama, chronicling the lives of a pair of siblings who struggle to survive the alien invasion at  the Hadley's Hope Colony on LV426, as seen in James Cameron's seminole film, ALIENS. Proximity is currently in production, with a target release date of October, 2017. Stay tuned! Proximity is written and directed by JM Prater, produced by Perfect Organism Podcast, starring Patrick Greene, Micah Greene, Bradford Eckhart, and Kevin Duffield.

Patrick and JM discuss their own personal heroes in the world of science fiction. From Princess Leia, to Mary Poppins, to Rick Deckard, and yes, even Superman, heroes across decades are discussed at length. This episode was a joy to create. We really hope all of you enjoy it. 

Dave, Mykal, and Patrick hold down the fort this week with a two-part episode about beginnings. The first half is a breakdown and discussion of the fascinating “Advent” short included on the home release of Alien: Covenant; the second half is a heartfelt exploration of how love for the franchise is passed from generation to generation. The episode ends with a number of call-ins, emails, and messages we received from you. We were honored to feature your original stories on the show, and can’t wait to hear more in the future!

This is Perfect Organism's third round table episode. In this episode, JM, Ryan, Patrick, Mykal and Dave discuss stepping out on our own, with a new discussion group, and an exciting and inclusive future where fans of ALL films can discuss their love, without fear. We believe the future is Alien, and it's an exciting one. 

The guys at Perfect Organism have begun a new podcast, the only one of its kind centered around visionary Ridley Scott's masterpiece, Blade Runner. Give it a listen and show some love on the Shoulder of Orion Facebook page if you can.

In this episode, Ryan and Dave sit down to discuss where the ALIEN series can go and the recent news post release of ALIEN: Covenant.

On this episode, JM discusses all things Blade Runner with Ryan Allen, the founder of Blade Runner Reality instagram account which has a huge following, and the coinciding Facebook group of the same name. JM and Ryan deconstruct Blade Runner, it's affects in our culture, how it changed us as people, and the upcoming sequel. We hope you enjoy.

JM is joined by special guest Patrick Greene as they go toe-to-toe, in the best possible way. Patrick is an unashamed enthusiast and Covenant supporter, going on the record to explain his love and defense of the film. It's a riveting and dynamic conversation. One of our longest podcasts yet. Catch Patrick as one of the leads in PROXIMITY: Last Stand At Hadley's Hope, coming in the next few months from Perfect Organism. Enjoy!

After a 3 week hiatus, Perfect Organism is back, with a heavy sigh, discussing the latest unfolding news surrounding Blomkamp's dead, ALIEN project, sequel ideas, and so much more.

JM and Ryan are back to discuss the state of fandom, the marketing approach to ALIEN: Covenant and so much more. This epsiode is, for all intents and purposes, a debriefing from what's been a crazy ride up through the release of Covenant. Fandom is in an interesting place. We discuss it all. We hope you enjoy!

Dave and JM sit down with ALIEN: Covenant concept designers Dane Hallett and Matt Hatton. In this episode we discuss what went on behind the scenes, how Dane and Matt landed the job, their inspiration, and so much more. We'd like to personally thank both of them for taking time out to be interviewed for our show. What a treat it was. Enjoy!

In this debut episode, David Gogel and Mykal McCulloch discuss some of the finer points of Alien: Covenant. From creatures to David’s Lab and drawings to the fate of Shaw, Covenant is broken down and discussed in a manner few are yet to do.  For those that enjoy the little details, this episode is for you. Enjoy! 

JM is joined by the esteemed William Robbie, founder and captain of The Weyland Yutani Bulletin, the largest and most active ALIEN-specific group on social media. In this episode, JM and Bill discuss how fandom has received Covenant, the effects that continue to reverberate and polarize fans of the film, since Covenants release. Warning, if you like or love ALIEN: Covenant, you might not want to listen to this. If you choose to listen, we hope that you can do so objectively. These are the opinions of two people, and they're strong ones. Enjoy.

The Perfect Organism Roundtable convenes to get into our first reactions surrounding the release of ALIEN: Covenant. Jm, Ryan, Mykal, and Dave are joined by Ooge, a senior admin and member of The Weyland Yutani Bulletin to discuss what we saw. This was a yet another really fun and informative episode.

JM and Ryan make another entry into The Weyland Yutani Bulletin Speaks series. This time, everything centers around Neill Blomkamp's project. JM also walks through the timeline of the announcement of Blomkamp's film, and the events that surround it, including official, and on the record comments made by Sigourney Weaver, Rildey Scott, and Blomkamp himself. 

JM and Roundtable co-host Dave sit down to discuss and review Jed Kurzel's score for ALIEN: Covenant. We also discuss our reaction to the 14 minutes of Covenant footage we screened with ALIEN on Alien Day 2017. Brutal. As always, thanks for listening. 

JM and Ryan are delighted to interview author Tim Lebbon, who's work has centered around the Alien expanded universe. This interview was a treat for us, as we ask Tim about his entry into the Alien universe, how it began, and his work on Alien: Out of the Shadows.

This is the first entry of a new weekly recording of discussions that happen on the biggest Alien group on social media, The Weyland Yutani Bulletin. The Weyland Yutani Bulletin, alongside the Alien vs. Predator Galaxy site and forum is the pulse of Alie fandom. What better way to let our listeners know what's going on, then reading active discussions. JM and Mykal have the honor of reading the posts and replies this week. This is new for us, and something we feel isn't being done on podcasts. Let us know what you think.

JM and Ryan discuss ALIEN DAY, fan feedback, and the latest news in this ALIEN DAY 2017 Epsiode special. 

JM and Ryan have the honor and privilege of interviewing esteemed and award winning actress, Laurel Lefkow who embodies Ripley perfectly in the audio drama of Tim Lebbon's ALIEN: Out of the Shadows. 

JM and Ryan are again joined by our regular roundtable co-hosts, Mykal and Dave to discuss the new behind the scenes video for ALIEN: Covenant, and talk about everything that's come out in the past few weeks as we build in anticipation for ALIEN Day 4/26/17. This was a fun episode. We hope you enjoy!

Jaime and Ryan sit down to discuss the latest news in ALIEN fandom.....the kickass poster, the news of another ALIEN film being prepped and readied for filming....what film we believe it is, Fox's recent involvement with the larger fan community and so much more. It's been over two weeks since we've recorded, and we're happy to back in the swing of things again. We also take this opportunity to discuss, at length, PROXIMITY: Last Stand At Hadley's Hope, Perfect Organism's first formal full length and original audio drama. Thank you for listening, and for being awesome.
