I think this went over my head. Why is it common knowledge to you and assume others that alien has a value of 1? Tried googling it and coulldnt exclude results that weren’t about outerspace aliens lol.
It’s Alien singular and not Aliens? That’s how I interpreted it
The sequel was Aliens, so I would say assuming the first one was singular makes sense to me.
Same.
Unless you take the “i” in Alien to be the imaginary number, then it’s -Alien
“Alien - Aliens - Alien”
Is actually profound poetry. It’s been staring us in the face.
Or I suppose take the e in Alien to be that mathematical constant.
Is the first film, in part, an expression of the multiplication of the imaginary number by the mathematical constant? And if case, does n have to do with factorials?
I’m amazed I know this many mathematical terms considering how terrible at math I am.
You need to consider units! 1m ≠1m³
So you’re saying Alien is a measure of length and Alien³ is a measure of volume?
Americans will do anything but use the metric system.
Hey, if my Big Gulp doesn’t come in Xenomorph ounces I don’t want it.
What do you mean Alien has a value of 1? In Base26 it has a value of 674,116 and since it’s set in the future i think it’s reasonable that they use Base26.
Why not Base36? Or even Base62?
You’re not wrong and the sky is the limit as long as we keep adding symbols!
Alien
Square alien
Cube alien
Alien Wuornos
This logic is 4fastfurious for me.
Your crew would push you in the back in that movie
Now it all makes sense!
