Guest rumbo Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 You know what I find fascinating, how movies portray the future but retain significant contemporary influences or whatever is current at the time. The marines in Aliens look very Vietnam War era, especially their helmets. Aliens was obviously made well after the Vietnam war, but there were still parts of the US military kit that remained largely unchanged throughout the 80's. And since the Vietnam war was the last major conflict, it became a landmark in military design for the entertainment industry. Just as the 1st Gulf War was to movies like Universal Soldier in the 90's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cameron has gone on record to say that Aliens was very influenced by the camaraderie between the soldiers serving in Vietnam. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
