Quotes:
|
-
General Perez: Ellen Ripley died trying to wipe this species out. For all intents and purposes, she succeeded!
-
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.
-
Ripley: Does it grow?
Dr. Gediman: Yeah. Very rapidly.
Ripley: It's a queen.
Dr. Gediman: How did you know that?
Ripley: She'll breed. You'll die. Everyone in the company will die.
-
Johner: Right, you're the "new model" droid. You can access the mainframe by remote.
Annalee Call: No, I can't. I burned my modem. We all did.
-
Johner: I'm not a mechanic, Mr. Ironsides! Mostly I just hurt people!

Trivia:
|
- Sigourney Weaver actually made the behind-the-back half-court basketball shot on her own, despite the fact that the way the ball disappears off-screen for a split second before going into the basket implies that she had off-screen help. She actually made the basketball shot on only the second take.
- Joss Whedon went through five different versions of the final battle with the "Newborn" creature, the first four versions of which all took place on Earth in such settings as a hospital maternity ward, a giant junkyard, a snowy forest and cliffside, and a desert.
- Nigel Phelps based the design of the spaceship "Betty" on a jackhammer. The "Auriga" was originally to be a vertical structure, but he abandoned this idea once he realized the difficulty of capturing the scope of such a ship design on film.
- The androids' names in the alien films follow a pattern-in alien, the name is Ash; in aliens it's Bishop; and the third android in alien resurrection is Call - (abc).
- 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.
