Quotes:
|
-
Van Leuwin: Thank you, Officer Ripley, that will be all.
Ripley: God damn it, that's not all!! 'Cause if one of those things get down here then that will be all! And all this bullshit that you think is so important, you can kiss all that goodbye!
-
Newt: We'd better get back, 'cause it'll be dark soon, and they mostly come at night... mostly.
-
[On whether she would return to LV-426]
Ripley: Now please leave. I am not going back, and I am... I would not be any good to you if I did.
-
[All doors have been welded closed against the advancing aliens.]
Hicks: Now all we need is a deck of cards.
-
Hudson: They're coming outta the walls. They're coming outta the goddamn walls!

Trivia:
|
- Frost and Spunkmeyer mention Arcturans. In The Hitch Hikers Guide to the Galaxy series, various Arcturan species are mentioned.
- A lightweight dummy model of Newt (Carrie Henn) was constructed for Sigourney Weaver to carry around during the scenes just before the Queen chase.
- There were two versions of the "Bug Stompers" logo designed for the movie, one wearing sneakers, and one wearing combat boots as seen on the drop ship.
- "She thought they said 'illegal aliens' and signed up..." said Hudson. This line (directed towards Vasquez) was in inside joke amongst the actors. Jenette Goldstein (Vasquez) had gone to the audition thinking the film would be about illegal immigrants. She arrived with waist-long hair and lots of makeup. Everyone else was wearing military fatigues.
- Bishop's Knife trick was previously in Roman Polanski's Knife in the Water
