100% agree! RotJ is where the cracks started to show. I think people forget this because all the nonsense that followed, starting with the Special Editions, makes RotJ seem restrained in comparison.

In the first half of the film the audience is meant to think that Ripley is a heartless bitch, especially the airlock scene when she refuses to let the landing party return aboard. I’ve always thought that her saving the cat was a great narrative device to show us that she isn’t this cold, heartless person. She was doing what was necessary to save as many members of the crew as possible.

I call them groove breaks, when the song takes a little break and just grooves for a bit.

The video version of Even Flow by Pearl Jam has a great one, Stranglehold has one, the album version of Sweet Emotions has one as the intro, so maybe not technically a break.

Most recently, Edward Larkin, from the Short Treks episode “The Trouble with Edward”.

Huh… the folding. I’m already mad that I can’t get a solid 5 years out of a $1200 phone, there’s no way I’m shelling out for a first wave foldy.
