Her registered trademark? "The alphabet starts at D." Is it crazy that, as an H cup gal, I'm giddy about a shop that doesn't stock A - C cups and now want to take a vacation just to visit one of her stores? If anyone is located in the LA, Pasadena, or Burbank area, or for that matter Decatur, GA where she owns a satellite shop, and has visited one of these, details please! I understand why she doesn't sell bras online, but as someone who found my correct size here, I wish she did. https://jenettebras.com
I was lucky enough to interview her a few years ago and asked her what she thinks of the series.
She said that she loves Alien and had never seen 3, Resurrection or Prometheus. This was before Covenant was out. I asked her if she watches Aliens (and Near Dark).
“You know? I do! I’ve seen Aliens more times than I care to admit! The last time I saw it was at the Hollywood Forever Cemetery where Marilyn Monroe is buried and they have a film programme there where they screen films on the side of a mausoleum. So I went to see it with Ricco Ross (Private Frost). And Near Dark is just a great film. Both of them you can just watch over and over!”
Also The Terminator is her favourite from that series and she never watched any of them after T3.

Obviously, both are directed by James Cameron.
Actors and actresses (T = Terminator; T2 = Terminator 2; A = Aliens):
- Bill Paxton: Punk Leader (T), Private Hudson (A)
- Michael Biehn: Kyle Reese (T), Corporal Hicks (A)
- Lance Henrikson: Detective Vukovich (T); Bishop (A)
- Jenette Goldstein: Janelle Voight (T2); Private Vasquez (A)
Characters:
- Both movies have female protagonists with opposing starting points. Sarah Connor is weak, unconfident, scared and unambitious. In her own words, "Do I look like the mother of the future? Am I tough? Am I organized? I can't even balance my checkbook.." At the end of the Terminator, we get to witness her strength, fierceness, and perseverance emerge. By contrast, Ripley was established as a tough, intelligent, cunning, and strong woman from the get go in the first Alien movie. However, after that ordeal, in the beginning of Aliens, she is scared/traumatized. Despite all her leadership qualities, she is terrified of going back to LV-426, initially rejecting Burke's offer to accompany the military mission as an advisor. It is only the recurring nightmares that drive Ripley to overcome this fear. In essence, both protagonists' inner journey is one of weakness and fear to one of strength and courage. Ripley's merely a journey of re-establishing her stength and courage whereas Sarah's is one of initial discovery.
- Probably just a weird coincidence, but in both movies, the leading male is played by Michael Biehn. In both of those movies, Michael Biehn's characters are bitten on the hand by a female character while trying to help them in the form of misunderstood restraint. In Terminator, while in the parking garage following the Tech Noir shootout, Sarah tries to escape after Reese answers her question about being from the future. He restrains her and she bites his hand. In Aliens, Corporal Hicks attempts to restrain Newt in her attempt to flee her would-be protectors. She bites his hand and escapes.
A subtle change of names
- Obviously, the company that eventually makes Skynet in Terminator is Cyberdyne Systems. In Aliens, Hyperdyne systems is mentioned. I don't remember exactly where in the movie this occurs, but I believe it's when they first approach the colony on LV-426. I think it's Burke that mentions something about terraforming units built by Hyperdyne. Or perhaps Hyperdyne is a particular model. I always wondered if Cameron initially may have called it Cyberdyne, then changed it because it was too overt
I don't want to step on anybody's toes here, but the amount of non-dad jokes here in this subreddit really annoys me. First of all, dad jokes CAN be NSFW, it clearly says so in the sub rules. Secondly, it doesn't automatically make it a dad joke if it's from a conversation between you and your child. Most importantly, the jokes that your CHILDREN tell YOU are not dad jokes. The point of a dad joke is that it's so cheesy only a dad who's trying to be funny would make such a joke. That's it. They are stupid plays on words, lame puns and so on. There has to be a clever pun or wordplay for it to be considered a dad joke.
Again, to all the fellow dads, I apologise if I'm sounding too harsh. But I just needed to get it off my chest.
Do your worst!
I'm surprised it hasn't decade.
Hey everybody! If you've seen anything you's like to say a few words about, you've come to the right place. All are welcome.
Stoker (2013) Park Chan-Wook’s (Oldboy) homage to Hitchcock’s Shadow of a Doubt was a lot of style over substance. Mia Wasikowska and Nicole Kidman are a mother and daughter at odds, and the relationship is further strained when “Uncle Charlie”, the mysterious and possibly dangerous brother of Kidman’s recently deceased husband comes to stay. Lots of good visuals, the movie itself was not bad. Worth a one-timer.
The Zero Boys (1986) Three couples inexplicably decide to squat in an obviously lived-in cabin they happen upon during a camping trip, and become targets of the hunting family that lives there. They fight back using their trophy winning paint-ball skills. 80s favorite Kelly Maroney (Chopping Mall, Night of the Comet) spends much of the fist half bouncing around braless in a loose tank top. That would be the highlight.
Rica aka Konketsuji Rika (1972) A schoolgirl is raped by GIs during the Korean War gives birth to "Half-Breed" Rica, then falls into a life of prostitution and drug abuse. Rica, a constant victim of sexual abuse herself, grows into a gang leader, but when her friends are kidnapped and sold into the sex trade in Vietnam, she sets on deadly revenge. When she's not doing that, she's constantly getting arrested and escaping from juvy, while keeping a rivalry with another gang leader burning. The story was a mess but loaded with nudity and gallons of spurting blood, and Rica had the cutest psychedelic outfits! The first of a trilogy as Toho joins the Pinky genre, and Rika Aoki stars in all three. She would only be in one other film.
Near Dark (1987) A cowboy ladies-man picks up the wrong lady at a bar and she turns him into a vampire. He joins the shit-kicker vampire crew that rides around in a van looking for victims and includes Bill Paxton, Lance Henrickson and Jenette Goldstein, all stars of the previous year’s Aliens! They couldn’t get Newt to play the little sister? I mean vampires mostly come at night too. Mostly. Director Katherine Bigelow was married to James Cameron, I guess they share everything! Tim “Dollman” Thomerson was and angry farmer-turned-vamp-hunter. There was three sequences in a row, the barroom massacre, police shootout, and the motel scene were pretty cool, but overall not quite as great as I remember. Nothing wrong with revisiting this one every 10 years or
... keep reading on reddit ➡For context I'm a Refuse Driver (Garbage man) & today I was on food waste. After I'd tipped I was checking the wagon for any defects when I spotted a lone pea balanced on the lifts.
I said "hey look, an escaPEA"
No one near me but it didn't half make me laugh for a good hour or so!
Edit: I can't believe how much this has blown up. Thank you everyone I've had a blast reading through the replies 😂
It really does, I swear!
Because she wanted to see the task manager.
