Aliens Direct TV Ad

[DSkehan2004]

lol this was really good!

[ShonenWave]

was watching aliens online and then decided to come here cause it was lagging

[PuppetMask]

Sigorney Weaver is an amazing person. She has intelligence, strength and beauty, but her's is REAL beauty. Also she's the one person I've ever seen who can actually make smoking look elegant. Every woman should be more like her.

[tiberiius]

I think 'definitely' has gotta be the most misspelled word on YouTube.

[FreddyMillz1]

I always thought Sigourney was sexy. Defiantly like her in "Paul".

[daysfan79]

Sigourney looks great! The exact same as she did 20 years ago! And she did her hair the same just for the ad, what a trooper :-)

[SpicedHammers]

2nd movie fools

[PREDAL1ENWARRIOR]

Best commercial ever!

[erynb2]

Come on, even aliens like direcTV

[maverick916]

between this and the terminator 2 one, whats the next James Cameron movie to be featured in a direct tv ad? maybe pirahna 2. lol

[CyberHardHat]

She still looks like she acting.

[iheartyogabbagabba]

IN SPACE NO ONE CAN HEAR YOU SCREAM!

[theUltimateBadass146]

OHMYGOD! that's hilarious!!! GET AWAY FROM HER YOU- this thing just won't leave!

[Tsarbomb117]

wow scene is WAY better than this she sais it to fast and in an angry voice while the movie she sais it slow and calm

[ViolaXZ]

Definitely the best SCI-FI movie ever made (along with other Alien films)

[CesMan83]

They ought to try one with Robocop, especially reenacting the scene where Robo first confronts Dick Jones, and then malfunctions due to his "Directive 4"...from there, Ronny Cox as Jones looks at the camera and says, "Oh, don't mind the officer here...he's just a little perturbed because we DIDN'T install DirecTV into his mainframe!"

hahaha

[MrFix3]

There's a reference to this commercial in the Extras (Ricky Gervais series) finale. An audience member has a Sigourney Weaver t-shirt with her saying "DirectTV!"

[kyrieeleison1]

I have to admit...that is some IMPRESSIVE CGI work!

[BarryDennen12]

What the fuck, they did a way better job on this than they did with Shatner.

[GWStreicher]

Did they really get her to do this?

[TheDullahan]

@GWStreicher Yes, espceially since it is illegal to use a person's likeness, whether portraying a fictional character or not, without written consent. She most likely did the voice, then the rest is done with CGI.

[valentinabg09]

jaja get away from her you ***** jajaaja

[valentinabg09]

jajajajaj. Me encanta alien.

[Komodoensis]

Sigourney FOREVER.

[Gibix]

They should do a Bruce Lee one!

[mailplanet16]

I'd like to see DirectTV do one of these with Pulp Fiction or Reservoir Dogs. Better yet, lets see Daniel Plainview from There will Be Blood. That would be epic.

[Adler36]

She was retouched by Lola VFX for this commercial, with Digital Cosmetic Enhancement. ("Vanity FX")

That's the reason because she looks so young in this.

[kesuga7]

and why cant they do that in alien 5 if theres gonna be one

[gojira12345678910]

Thats fucking great!

[Gavin2Becentie]

OMG i wanna be young hip and rich like her =(....

[Namtrosh1101]

She's not young and hip anymore. . . :x

[aliendude1234]

I saw that when i was waching AVP on F/X

[gojira12345678910]

Lol, thats funny.

[ScarPredator040365]

I love this commercial!

[CesMan83]

Sigourney Weaver is great in nearly everything she does...from "Aliens" to "Prayers For Bobby"

[wally815]

just watched this movie on direct tv.

"get away from her you bitch!"

[billywool]

Oh shit!!! she looks exactly like in the 1st movie....that was exactly 30 years ago!!!

[Adler36]

@billywool : The reason for that is because the company Lola VFX did retouch her. Lola VFX makes DCE= Digital Cosmetic Enhancement, "vanity effects". They reduce the age of the stars and make them beautifuller!!!

[billywool]

Wow, thats really CREEPY. I wrote this comment more than a year ago...and last night I watched Alien Director's cut and i received your reply while i was reading about this movie on wiki..... Thing is that I haven't watch or read anything about Alien for the past YEAR!!! LOL CREEPY

[Adler36]

@billywool: Wow, that is really odd. :O

[erynb2]

@billywool You do realize Aliens is the 2nd movie right?

[hardstreetbambi]

LOVE her

[hypnodance]

I'll bet they're gonna do a SAW version. "He doesn't want us to cut through our chains...he wants to cut off our DirecTV!"

"NOOOOO! Not 150 channels in Hi-Def for only 29.95!! I can't go back to cable! He's inhuman!"

[armageddontri7]

that scared the crap out of me when i saw that commercial

i used to hate alien but i keep seeing that that thing everywhere i go

including disney world

[edcuz]

she deserved that. dumb bitch.

[Taolbi]

*sigh*

Cool commercial

but kinda feels like a sell out

[brendanmontgomery]

Sigourney Weaver looks so young in this commercial thanks to computer-generated facelift. They used the same technique with Patrick Stuart and Ian McKellen in the prologue of X-Men 3.

[Larz9220]

holy crap she still looks good

[nuttysoulja]

in the uk we got sky we can upgrade to sky plus you can record programs rewind as your watching and we got over 1000 for like 3o sumthing pounds. we got radio channels aswell aandd we can have it hoked up around the whole house.

[spartan1021]

thats called tivo in the us

[davidsk8cat]

LMFAO this is amazing!!!

[ChazDunn]

whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy

[mrmoneyinthebank33]

is dishnetwork better than DTV?

[scaryred24]

Wrong. DirectTV has one of the most cheapest bills for an average $60.00 per month. Tell you the truth, I have experienced Dish Network in the late 90's and their satellites are crap. They hardly get a signal in certain areas where they provide them. Plus Dish Network has to load every group of 20 channels or so, while DirectTV picks up a channel from the other end of the guide w/o loading once but it kinda like buffers between channels.

[pred51193]

Ja ja ja ja ja ja ja ja ja!!!!!!!

[dancerGirl3653]

haha. i love this commercial and saw Aliens, just so i couls see what the commercial was based on! i love how it looked just like the movie did, with the alien, loader, even Sigourney Weavers hair was the same!

[Defender78]

well dancergirl, the closeups and speaking scenes were done for the commercial, but the rest of the shots are from the original movie. Awesome commercial though!

[deceptioninautumn]

best DTV commercial

[Kirame]

how much was she payed to do this I wonder. anyone know...it must have been a shitload though

[acidglow]

cool

[deckard97]

sigourney weaver rocks.thanks for uploading this

[rangel20]

At this point, they're going to do this on every movie, even "Schindler's List". The scene of the little boy hiding in the toliet sewage will look ahead to the viewers and say, "Did you know Direct TV has unlimited channels at a low, low price?! It's worth escaping Auschwitz for!"

[tragicblackness]

I don't know how you made the holocaust funny but you just did.

[dedogg2]

You should get Vtv, its HD is alot better. Also,dtv has too much ad channels

[kcholt68]

A Movie Dearest blog featured video. See my profile for the link and playlists!

[gotcha20000]

WAHT NO MICHAEL BIEHN!!!!!!!!!!!!

[gojira12345678910]

Dude, for all of these commercials they reenact the most infamous part of the movie, and we all know that Hicks was knocked out at this point.

[dirtyd82]

For you dumb people. I work for Directv and here's a little fact.....Directv owns 49% of Dish Network....so when you go on your rant about switching to Dish Network because you DVR OR HD DVR crapped, just know Directv is still getting your money......please go to cable, that's what I have I and I work for them.

[4ndrebass0]

This DTV commercial and the one with Charlie Sheen are done using Image Metrics software. The persons face is analyzed using image recognition software and then mapped to a 3D model that looks exactly like the real person. The end result is that the 3D model can then be re-inserted into any video scene via standard compositing techniques. Check out the Image Metrics website... This is not Sig in makeup.... google a recent pic of her for proof.

[shawnwwe]

actually u are wrong Charlie Sheens add is like Doc Browns add.Its them really,mixed into the scene.Its not a mixed with software.And if u look close,the jerey is not the exact same,and Sheens face looks older too.But its a mix from the real scene and today.Nothing fake about it.Sheen talked about it on Jimmy Kimmel

[bres3000]

Not Sig's face, not Sig's voice, Ergo: Not Sig

[xenomorphlover]

eehhhh you are kidding me right. Of course this is Sigourney Weaver, but they cloned her like in Alien Resurrection and used the clone for this commercial ;)

When they can make her younger with CGI like this, she can easily do Alien 5 before its too late. GO RIPLEY GO....

[jiggy410]

HA LMAO!!! good shit

[garak1976]

You have got to be the DUMBEST motherfucker on the planet.

[Farfaramir]

Totally Agree... xD....

[corpreal363]

No Way! James Cameron Should do the next!

[Zedarlis]

Huh....this has a lot of CGI, that's why she looks young.

But yeah, Alien Ressurection ruined it, please Ridley Scott do a proper film to rest the series.

Dumb french directors! >:(

[CSOCSO]

i just saw this commercial on tv.. lol! love it!

[pingu66]

Oh, boy. Sigourney, Bill Hicks would not approve, you sucker....

[johnclavis]

It's unfortunate how "Alien (5)" turned out. I really like "Delicatessen" and "City of Lost Children". This commercial, on the other hand, is kind of disquieting.

[UncannyAntman]

There's an Alien 5 now?

[kw2k]

Thank you for posting this up. Aliens is my all time Fav Sci Fi Flick, I hope either cameron or Scott will do Aliens 5 and put the seris to rest and clean up the mess Jean-Pierre Jeunet left.

[jmprater]

bring on ALIEN 5

[MunkyGirlie]

Wow, they did a great job recreating the scene. The blood, her shirt, wow.

I had a fangirl squee!

[m41a1]

If you freeze frame you can see that the teeth look off. I'm guessing it's a smoother CGI morph that's better than even Forrest Gump. They may have hired Weaver for the voice over would be my guess.

[S57Firebox]

Excellent!!!

[MikeGleeson1]

How embarrassing... thats one way to officially drive a franchise into the ground (if AvP wasn't bad enough).

For those of you who want an "Alien 5 to finish off the saga"... they did. It was called Alien 3.

Alien Ressurection was crap and completely unnecessary.

[paulyh35]

kick ass!!

[killajoy714]

i love this commercial

[danowen79]

Is that genuinely Sigourney Weaver from 2007? Or was this advert made in 1986? If it's the former... wow, she looks younger than she did in Alien Resurrection 10 years ago. Amazing. Oh, please Ridley Scott... direct a decent Alien 5 to finish the saga properly...

[Shediac]

yay. Best Direct TV commercial so far. Don't know how they make the actors look like they did in their respective films. Truly amazing.

[chumblespuz3000]

she looks exactly the same...bring on alien 5!!!
