"Get away from her, you BITCH!" is quite possibly THE most badass line ever delivered in a movie. Even better than Arnold's one-liners.

[@rare_wulf9358]

Don’t forget Clint Eastwood movie line : “Go Ahead Make My Day” meant to be said to anybody especially a criminal that wants to cause harm to you. But in doing so the person wanting to cause harm, ends up suffering instead 😊

[@enigmatic51me95]

I saw the movie when it came out in the theater...Ripley steps out of the airlock with the forklift power suit and says her immortal line! I was floored after she said it! Everyone can relate to that..."Get away from her, you BITCH!" AWESOME LINE! After she said it everyone in the theater was yelling! ...FIGHTS ON!

[@HawkGTboy]

“Come on!…. COME ON!!!” I love that line.

[@david-1775]

Ellen Ripley is the perfect strong female lead. She isn't perfect, she doesn't have super powers, she doesn't know everything. She doesn't win every battle but she doesn't give up. She is a well written character that Hollywood needs to remember how to write.

[@hadesmcfadden2982]

@@vkdeen7570 Ripley displays leadership, bravery, cunning, and several other qualities that are neither strictly feminine or masculine. They just ARE. Can we finally drop this ridiculous incel-speak about "feminine sides" and "nurturing qualities"? Why do we have to constantly engender what is heroic about a character? "but not trying to be a man..." She didn't even need to try to be anything.

Fun fact: Paul Reiser, who played Burke, took his mother to the premiere, and even she cheered when his character got killed. The Alien series are the only horror films I've ever had nightmares about. I used to have dreams of running down endless corridors, pursued by an Alien, and only just managing to close doors in front of it, but it still smashed through them eventually. After God knows how many doors, I just couldn't run any more, so I slumped again the wall, trying to get my breath. Then I noticed that there was no pounding from the other side of the last door, so I looked through the window, to see the Alien leaning against the wall, trying to get it's breath back as well...

The great thing about Ripleys character is she is such a badass, but when she goes into mom protection mode over Newt it's like next level.

[@dmmmitry8450]

Ripley was right burning all eggs, because they started to open, and our girls would be followed by many facehuggers, they could easily climb to elevator cabin! So it was nessasary.

[@HawkGTboy]

And apparently, as seen in the beginning of Alien 3, one of the face huggers does follow them and manage to get on the dropship.

[@ciphernine7824]

While not military trained, Ripley conducts herself as any Warrant Officer would, she's agile, adaptive, and innovative. She's courageous and responsible, and possesses the rare gift of asserting her authority while still remaining friendly. She only speaks up when she has something important to say. While she's patient and willing to listen to other's arguments, she knows when to act on her own initiative for the greater good.

[@penoyer79]

I think Ripley was just exorcising some demons there at the end killing all the eggs. The girl who plays newt is a school teacher at the elementary school near my house. my wife worked with her for a few years. she goes by a married name. i dont think anyone knows who she is. lol

[@Endru85x]

I remember learning many years ago that girl who played Newt never acted again.And yeah, Ripley killing eggs may look strange, but she is a human after all and maybe it was sort of katharsis for her (also, one of the eggs was opening in this scene :) ).

[@themasteryourdaddy.6307]

[@Boroman9]

You’ve just seen one of the greatest sequels of all time. Perfect from start to finish & to me, easily outdoes the original by a country mile. The moment Ripley takes on the Alien Queen and says the famous “Get away from her, you bitch” line is simply spine tingling & timeless. And when Newt calls her mommy at the end always brings tears to my eyes. A masterpiece in every sense of the word.

Aliens is my favorite sci-fi movie. Its also my favorite scary movie. And Aliens is quite possibly the greatest sequel ever made. But you should've watched the Special Edition. It carries a lot more weight when Newt calls Ripley, "Mommy!"

The SFX in this film still looks incredible, better than films that come out today...

Yes because it's real. They use real fire for the flame throwers in Alien, today they would just CGI the fire. CGI is needed in some cases but it's best not to use CGI if not needed.

Aliens is even more amazing and my favorite Alien movie of all time and one of amazing Sci-fi/Horror in history! it's defiantly one of the best sequel to first movie like I absolutely love storytelling, casts did amazing on their roles, horror scenes are fantastic, actions were sick, development on characters were so awesome especially Ellen Ripley the and she is one of best strong female character of all time especially she was protecting Rebecca Jorden and I love Ellen's relationship also in my opinion it is turn ending of Alien franchise. I give this movie full blown 10/10!!!

[@highlander31527]

9:12 Michelle says what everyone was thinking for the last thirty five years. They don't make movies like this any more. Absolutely no one had a problem with Ripley, Vasquez, Ferro, or Dietrich. Ripley, Vasquez, Sarah Connor, Princess Leia, these are the female action heroes that all since have been compared to. Sadly, many in the last twenty years have fallen far short of those standards. Rita Vrataski in Edge of Tomorrow, Alita in Alita Battle Angel, Gamora, or Pepper Potts in any of the Marvel movies, Maggie Fitzgerald from Milion Dollar baby, all of these roles were great and worthy of being right there next to the best. But, they are the few, and the many are awful.

[@hadesmcfadden2982]

they actually do make movies like this. It's kinda weird that you're like "tHey dOn't mAkE mOvIeS LiKe tHiS aNyMorE!" then list off roles made in the last decade or less as comparable to something nearly 40 years old.

[@CChissel]

@@david-1775 You’re the one actually missing the point. Do you know what happens when a number of something increases? Everything increases, meaning that the percentage of bad vs good female leads goes up. It’s harder to make a good quality movie in general versus a bad one, add a female lead and it’s even harder. And there were plenty of movies with a female lead that sucked in and before the 80s.

I liked the theatrical version. The director's cut is good, but better when you already have a feel for the story.

[@cascadeghost2814]

@Stevarooni disagree, the directors cut is by far superior, not to mention the way Cameron wanted it seen. Not only does it give us pre alien attack footage of the colony but we get to see the space marines fend off 2 waves of alien attacks before being overrun. This makes the alien strategy change on the third wave more plausible when they cut the power. The theatrical version isn't the movie, its executive cut up trash.

Bill Paxton and Lance Henriksen are the only two actors to have their characters killed in the "Alien", "Terminator" and "Predator" series. . 4. Possibly the best dialogue in the movie: Hudson, "Hey Vasquez, have you ever been mistaken for a man?" Vasquez, : "No have you?"🤣 5. Much of Bill Paxton's dialogue was ad-lib.

One of the greatest sequels ever made, along with Terminator 2, also by James Cameron. It also has one of the greatest put-downs in movie history: "Hey, Vasquez, have you ever been mistaken for a man?" "No. Have you?" OUCH! And the scene with Ripley in the powerloader fighting the alien queen is right up there with Captain America wielding Thor's hammer: "Get away from her, you bitch!" The theater went NUTS! About how this movie got made, the story goes that James Cameron was at 20th Century Fox pitching some other story idea of his, but the studio rejected it. While he was leaving, he and the receptionist had a short conversation about various movies and just as he was heading out the door she said something like, "Maybe you could do a sequel to 'Alien'!" which stopped him dead in his tracks because he immediately realized the potential of such an idea.

@@_MjG_Not as stupid an idea as you think it was. _Alien: Isolation_ reveals that 15 years after the _Nostromo,_ another ship, the _Anesidora,_ detected the same beacon and landed on the moon to investigate and salvage anything of value. The crew discovered the derelict and some equipment left behind by Nostromo. While exploring the derelict, the captain of the Anesidora _disabled_ the distress beacon to prevent any other salvage vessels from discovering the ship (wanting to keep anything valuable for himself) and the captain's wife ended up with a facehugger. Then they flew to _Sevastopol Station,_ hoping to find medical help for the captain's wife (and setting in motion a second xenomorph infestation.) The alien ship was shielded from the colony's ground scanners by the Ilium mountain range, while the moon's thick, debris-laden atmosphere shrouded the ship both from the naked eye and satellite scanning. That's why it wasn't discovered for 42 years after the _Anesidora_ incident, when Burke found the data in Ripley's flight recorder, then _deliberately_ deleted the original data, and sent colonists to go investigate, triggering the third Alien outbreak. Alternate non-video game interpretation: Maybe the warning beacon just failed from old age. Nothing lasts forever. And since the weather prevented satellite scans, and the minerals in the mountain range blocked ground scanners, the colonists never knew about the ship until Burke sent them there. In regards to whether or not the video games like _Alien: Isolation_ are canon, it honestly depends on what _you_ consider canon, in a manner of speaking. The video game has been considered tentatively canon. It's never been referenced in the movies, because of course it didn't exist when the movies came out, so if you go solely by those, then no, it's not canon. Remember, however, that FOX gave the game developers unrestricted access to all the available material, including a lot of stuff that ended up on the cutting room floor, and the developers expressly did not want to retcon anything. However, in 2014, three novels were published prior to the October release of Alien: Isolation. These books were _Alien: Out of the Shadows, Alien: Sea of Sorrows,_ and _Alien: River of Pain._ These books were _explicitly_ created to tie in with the film-only canon, but Out of the Shadows (set between the original Alien and Aliens) has a brief passage in which _both_ Ellen Ripley (Sigourney Weaver) _and_ her daughter (the protagonist of the then-unreleased game) are referenced to having foiled Weyland-Yutani's attempts at acquiring the Xenomorph. By this passage alone and by the intent of those three novels to tie in with the Alien movie series, it can be suggested that those three novels plus the movies (excluding AVP/AVPR) plus the game are meant to represent an "official" canon.

Great movie, the first two are very good. The last two I'll leave for others to comment on. Newt in the second one took the place of Jonesy the cat from the first one, an innocent that Ripley had to save.

The final countdown IS in real time.

I wonder how good xenemorphs are for eating. You would remove the acid blood of course. They could be served up at restaurants in the future.

Was the extended edition? It's so much better.

She burned all the eggs because she believed that the Alien Queen had implicitly violated her term of their unspoken ‘agreement’ by seemingly allowing one of her eggs to start hatching to try to stop her from leaving. And since the Alien Queen had seemingly violated her end of the deal, Ripley felt no further need to maintain her end of the same deal.

This is in the same Universe as Star Gate, Blade Runner, Predator and Escape From New York / Escape from LA.

Evidence of that?
