Are you bored? You need to see a picture of Sigourney Weaver testing the flamethrower for Alien at Paramount Studios.
@golgaloth Guess you meant "Aliens" ;-)
@tapeloop @golgaloth is that not the first movie uniform?
@jake2 @golgaloth Occurred to me as well some time after I wrote the comment. According to Wikipedia, the first film does feature a flamethrower but it's not used by Ripley. Guess the 70s were even more awesome than I thought if the production just let her play with a live flamethrower even though she didn't even need it for the movie (unless there's a scene that was cut/dropped)
@tapeloop @golgaloth ripley 100% uses the flamethrower in the movie! https://youtu.be/wvH0ETbYRIY
@jake2 @golgaloth Now that makes more sense
