James Cameron’s incredible ALIENS was released three decades ago on July 18, 1986. In celebration of the super sequel’s 30th anniversary, Famous Monsters editor David Weiner chats with the Oscar-winning writer-director about the making of the film, from inception and production design to casting and his perception of the project in the modern age of digital effects. Plus, Cameron does a little compare and contrast with his new AVATAR sensibilities. Stay to the end of the podcast for details on FM’s TALES FROM THE ACKER-MANSION Kickstarter and FM’s upcoming ALIEN CON (thealiencon.com)

The full extended Famous monsters Podcast from the Comic-Con at Home showing. Filled with more battles and more banter. 



Famous Monsters podcast crew, Jorge "The-Jack-Of-All-Trades" Marrero and Jason "The Falcon" Ioannou, are joined by fellow podcasters Matt Corrigan and Aaron McLane of The Launchpad podcast to play a game called "Body Count"! The game pits iconic monsters like the Wolf Man, Pennywise, and Pumpkinhead against each other to see who can collect the most victims. And there's a catch, of course: the randomized victims won't be completely helpless! Enter powerhouses like the Dream Warriors and the space marines from Aliens. Every battle will take place in a different setting--from the foggy English moors of American Werewolf to the House on Haunted Hill! It's the best kind of monster battle roulette from the experts who know their every secret move and is sure to result in both riotous laughter and impassioned debates.
