Episode 34 - Aliens VS Terminator 2: Judgment Day | Modern Superior

 

You can chase her, hunt her, send a T-1000 after her, or trick her into revisiting LV-426, but mess with her baby and she’ll fuck you up. That’s right, folks! This week we’re looking at badass mamas Ellen Ripley and Sarah Connor with Aliens VS Terminator 2: Judgement Day. We’re tracing a line from Ripley’s career-driven origins to her surrogate motherhood of orphan Newt, while following Sarah Connor from flighty waitress to Amazonian warrior. But what makes these women tick? And what do Aliens and Terminator 2 say about society’s compulsion for procreation? You’ll have to tune it to find out!

On Saturday, April 7th we’ll be at the Revue Cinema for an all-nighter! CAMH‘s One Brave Night For Mental Health is nearly upon us, and our team, Jamie Dew’s A Show of Strength, will be hosting a triple feature to help raise funds and awareness for mental health.
