Quotes:
|
-
Johner: What a waste of ammo. Must be a chick thing.
-
Johner: Don't push me, little Call. If you hang with us for a while, you'll find out I am not the man with whom to f**k!
-
Johner: Earth, man. What a s**thole.
-
Ripley: Who do I have to f**k to get off this boat?
Johner: I can get you off. Maybe not the boat.
-
Purvis: WHAT'S IN F**KING SIDE ME!?!
Ripley: There's a monster in your chest. These guys hijacked your ship, and they sold your cryotube to this... human, and he put an alien inside of you. It's a really nasty one. And in a few hours, it's gonna burst its way through your rib cage, and you're gonna die. Any questions?
Purvis: Who are you?
Ripley: I'm the monster's mother.

Trivia:
|
- Originally, the fourth alien movie was to be a rendition of the popular comic Aliens Vs. Predator.
- The writer's had to overcome Ripley's death in Alien 3 to allow Sigourney Weaver to return in her role. One of the original renditions of the script has Ripley waking up on the Sulaco and realizing that all the events in Alien 3 were a dream.
- Whedon originally scripted the Newborn creature as a four-legged, eyeless, bone-white creature with red veins running along the sides of its head. It had an inner jaw, similar to the all the other aliens. It also had a pair of pincers on the sides of his head. These pincers were used to hold its prey still as it drained the prey of blood with its inner jaw. The creature was also larger, nearly the size of the queen alien. In later script revisions, the creature was changed into a "more believable" hybrid of human and alien.
- Jean-Pierre Jeunet wanted to have a scene where a mosquito stings Ripley, then vanishes into smoke because of her acid blood. Eventually, he left the idea after the SFX team told him how much it would cost.
- The Auriga interactive computer is named "Father." In the original Alien, the computer's name was "Mother." There are even compatible scenes where people yell at Mother or Father for not responding to them.
