00:43came from an Aliens-deleted scene that Cameron eventually restored in his extended special edition cut.

00:49There's a moment where you see a bunch of kids running and riding a big wheel around the corridors of this colony.

00:53And I thought, wow, what would it be like for those kids to grow up in a colony

00:57that still needs another 50 years to terraform?
