In the extended version of the movie you learn Ripley had a daughter that died of old age while she was in cryosleep . It makes Newt more important to Ripley because Newt represents the daughter she left behind and another chance for her to be a Mom.

[@DougRayPhillips]

Right. Theatrical release is about 2h 24m. Extended cut is about 2h 41m. The extended release includes the sequence (in Earth orbit) where Burke shows Ripley a photo of her daughter who has already died of old age / cancer (the picture is actually Sig Weaver's mom). Ripley laments that she intended to be home for her daughter's 12th birthday. It also includes Newt's family being the first ones to discover the alien ship, and Newt's dad being the first one infected with a facehugger. (So that's a much earlier first reveal of the aliens than in the theatrical version.) And it includes the four automated Sentry Guns, which adds a few minutes to the battle sequence of the aliens closing in on the remaining Marines.

And it's rare that anyone topped her character since. So many writers and directors fall into the trap of making their female characters cartoonish... lacking any weakness or vulnerability.

But she faced her fear... she went into the belly of the beast showing that she knew what was at stake.

The short command room scene, Hicks, Vasquez, Hudson, and Ripley all fire multiple bursts. Hicks shooting the alien coming through the door into the elevator, that acids him. Ripley shoots 4 aliens and the queen in the penultimate fight. The first of these, the med-lab scene, does not take place until 1 hour 51 minutes into the film. The so called iconic pulse rifles are not fired a single time until 111 minutes into the film! What you are probably on about is Vasquez and Drake's smartguns.

I am not surprised that there are no women physically in that station given when the movie is made, but interestingly the 50’s original is the same basic set up, and there is a woman in that cast, so maybe I should be.

I loved your reaction to Ripley’s line to the Alien Queen: “Get away from her, you *bitch!”* It actually reportedly fit in with at least some genuine cinema audience reactions back when the film first came out. Sigourney Weaver is a superb, talented actress. She has even appeared in comedies and held her own, such as the comedy horror films in the _Ghostbusters_ franchise. Whenever I recommend _Aliens_ I always recommend the Director’s Cut, as it is more suspenseful and also sets up a backstory with Ripley that explains the way she is with Newt later (in this case, Ripley was trying to get back to her daughter’s birthday party but unfortunately was in stasis for so long that the daughter died before she could ever get the chance to reach her. The photo of the daughter as a grown woman that she holds in the scene is that of Elizabeth Inglis (1913-2007), who was a British actress who was Sigourney Weaver’s real-life mother). In the Director’s cut you also get to see Newt and her family and the colony being operational and running normally before it all went pear-shaped.
