Quotes:
|
-
Bishop II: Ripley! Think of all we can learn from it! You MUST let me have it! It's a magnificent special!
-
[Ripley gets out of bed naked.]
Ripley: Are you going to get me some clothes, or should I just go like this?
Clemens: Given the nature of our indigenous population, I would suggest clothes. None of the men here have seen a woman in years. [under his breath] Neither have I, for that matter.
-
[Searching for the Alien]
David: Here, kitty, kitty, kitty!
-
[To the Alien.]
Ripley: You've been in my life so long, I can't remember anything else.
-
[On why all the prisoners call Aaron "85."]
David: A couple of us sneaked a look at his personnel file the day he arrived. It's his IQ.

Trivia:
|
- Sigourney Weaver said she would only shave her head if she got more money.
- First-time director David Fincher disowned the film, citing constant studio interference and actually walked out of production before editing began.
- Original script had the alien impregnating a cow, not a dog.
- Multiple proposed scripts caused misleading advertising which implied that the movie would be set on Earth. William Gibson also drafted a script in which Ripley spent most of the film in a coma.
- Although the alien that hatched from the dog was a rod puppet, early filmed tests used an actual dog in an alien costume.
