Quotes:

-
Drake: Man, you look just like I feel.
-
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.
-
Hicks: Hey! I know we're all in strung out shape but stay frosty and alert. We can't afford to let one of those bastards in here.
-
Ripley: What do those pulse rifles fire?
Gorman: 10 millimeter explosive tip caseless. Standard light armor piercing round. Why?

Trivia:
|
- Bishop's Knife trick was also previously seen in John Carpenter's Dark Star. Like Bishop, Boiler misses too.
- The pulse rifles that the Marines use are made from a Thompson M1A1 machine gun with a Franchi SPAS 12 shotgun underneath.
- Frost and Spunkmeyer mention Arcturans. In The Hitch Hikers Guide to the Galaxy series, various Arcturan species are mentioned.
- One of the sets was kept intact after filming. It was later used as the Axis Chemicals set for Batman.
- Al Matthews, who plays a Marine sergeant in this film, was in real life the first black Marine to be promoted to the rank of sergeant in the field during service in Vietnam.
