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)
