A children’s book based on the successful Alien film franchise is being released by Disney next year—but people online have criticized the idea for being inappropriate.
Ridley Scott’s 1979 sci-fi horror movie Alien saw the crew of a spacecraft, Nostromo, intercept a distress signal from a planet and set out to investigate it. However, to their horror, the crew members are attacked by an alien that later invades their ship. This movie then led to a franchise, with five other films having since been released—and now it is being turned into a children’s book, with help from Little Golden Books and Penguin Random House.

I thought ‘A’ was for ‘anal sex’ in school books.
The aliens streaming across our former border by the hundreds of thousands are a far more insidious danger, and we aren’t even allowed a flamethrower to repel them.
Taking over the Nostromo was an act of love. Besides, it needed to be decolonized because, Equity, and the White woman should have been forced to give up the stasis tube to the Black man anyway, not doing that was racist.
S is for scary when the peanuts start popping out of the M&M’s. And also for shit.
i is for illegal alien, s is for sniffer joe, h is for humper, w is for yt-supremacy…
I think it’s a good idea, but keep it for adults, not children.
And, since it’s from Disney, I’m not buying it.
Buuuuttt……I may follow the advice of Abbie Hoffman, and “Steal This Book”.
