Happy birthday, Jon Spaihts! May your cake be free of sinister eggs and facehugging surprises. You've fearlessly navigated us through terrifying space odysseys, giving Ripley unforgettable encounters with acid-blooded party crashers. Thanks for showing us the best way to survive an alien attack—don't poke strange space organisms—and reminding humanity that Sigourney Weaver wielding a flamethrower is always great storytelling.May your next year bring scenes filled only with applause (and minimal chestbursters). Your creative genius continues to thrill sci-fi fans everywhere; here's hoping your celebrations possess all the excitement and none of the drama you've masterfully scripted.
