WellI don’t have any strong feelings about it but that airlock is the one that leads to outside…
The narcissus is in another part of the nostromo…
My opinion on this is and I think it’s a reason why it should be left alone is that it would change traversing to the narcissus too much… You already don’t like what I told you and there is no other scenes with the Alien by an airlock. It falls into a deliberation about restoring this sequence could hurt the film. I understand that why it was never touched.
If you take the spliced in shots of R2-D2 on death star whilst playing chess on the millennium falcon. If I was right that those stop motion chess pieces time exactly with the spliced in shots of R2-D2 then we can confirm Special effects not completed and R2-D2 was spliced in to cover the unfinished sequence although it was shot just not finished. If you were going to do a Special Edition why on earth would you not restore those special effects shots restoring how the film was planned and “meant to be”
George can’t proclaim that the film he wanted to make contained random splices to R2-D2 on the death star whilst he is playing chesd on the millennium falcon.
Evety part of George Lucus argument and his changes fall flat on there face.
I can Understand why they left this part alone in Alien.
