Because it makes the afternoons, when I want to be doing stuff, darker, and makes no difference to the mornings since I get to work before sunrise anyway, and we have lights for work ... ¿why do I have to sacrifice my winter afternoons?
The Baked Bean War.
I was there, and I remember.
I don't think Aliens has any CGI, just miniature and VFX stuff ...

Came here to post this.
I woke up sweaty and screaming from nightmares about the ending several times, up to 6 months after seeing it.
I may have been particularly susceptible, though, because I was living in Sheffield at the time and was badly affected by birth trauma.
