What if the ALIEN franchise had gone differently?

"I may be synthetic, but I'm not stupid."

"That's it, game over man! Game Over!"

"Why don't you just put her in charge?"

Golic didn't slit Morses throat. He knocked him out and said "No more cigerettes for you".

He slit the throat of the guy guarding where the alien was kept.

So you've seen the extended cut then? I dunno how you can say the prisoners didn't get any development then. Golic for one did. Dillon got LOADS of development. Even Morse had a few more scenes, but granted he was mainly comic relief.

Even the guy who tried to rape Ripley redeemed himself.
 
Apone: All right, sweethearts, what are you waiting for? Breakfast in bed? Another glorious day in the Corps! A day in the Marine Corps is like a day on the farm. Every meal's a banquet! Every paycheck a fortune! Every formation a parade! I LOVE the Corps!
 
Hudson: Let's just bug out and call it even, OK? What are we talking about this for?
Ripley: I say we take off and nuke the entire site from orbit. It's the only way to be sure.
Hudson: F' A...
Burke: Ho-ho-hold on, hold on one second. This installation has a substantial dollar value attached to it.
Ripley: They can *bill* me.
 
HAHA SICK. And when they suddenly realize the aliens are above em. dun dun dunnnnnnn

Then Hicks's reaction when he sees them. :hehe:

Anyone else love how this film was shot? That may be saying alot, but some of the angles I really loved. Like when Hicks was running to catch up to get to the vents when the the room is lit in red and the shot when Hicks and Ripley run through the halls, Hicks looking all over the place for aliens while still running and trying to hold onto Ripley at the same time. He looked panicky as hell.
 
Apone: It's a rescue mission, you'll love it. There's some juicy colonists' daughters we have to rescue from their virginity. Heh!
 
"Hey, I feel like a fifth wheel around here. Is there anything I can do?"

"I don't know, is there anything you can do?"

Yea it had a real kinetic feel about it? Sorta felt like you was there with em.
 
Apone: All right, sweethearts, you're a team and there's nothin' to worry about. We come here, and we gonna conquer, and we gonna kick some, is that understood? That's what we gonna do, sweethearts, we are going to go and get some. All right, people, on the ready line! Are ya lean?
Marines: Yea!
Apone: Are ya mean?
Marines: Yea!
Apone: WHAT ARE YOU?
Marines: Lean and mean!
Apone: WHAT ARE YOU? HUDSON! Get on the ready line, Marines, get some today! Get on the ready line! Move it out! Move it out, goddammit! Get hot! One, two, three, four! Get out, get out, get out! Move it out, move it out, move it out! Move it out, move it out, move it out! One, two, three, four, five, six, seven! Aaarrrrr, absolutely badassess! Let's pack 'em in! Get in there!
 
Hudson: Man, this floor is freezing.
Apone: What do you want me to do, fetch your slippers for you?
Hudson: Gee, would you sir? I'd like that.
[Apone pulls down the skin under his left eye with middle finger]
Apone: Look into my eye.
 
Vasquez: Look, man. I only need to know one thing: where they are.
Drake: Go, Vasquez. Kick a$$.
Vasquez: Anytime, anywhere, man!
Hudson: Right, right. Somebody said "alien" she thought they said "illegal alien" and signed up!
Vasquez: F*** you, man!
Hudson: Anytime, anywhere.
 
Hudson: Hey Vasquez, you ever been mistaken for a man?
Vasquez: No. Have you?
 
*slaps hands*

"Vasquez, you're just too bad."
 
I always felt that Aliens was the least interesting, visual wise. I find it somewhat boring in that sense. Sill loves it though, the story, characters, and action make up for it.
 
I think the camera angles and the way it was shot was great. And the designs of the vehicles and weapons were obviously very memorable. I mean the pulse rifles, the smart guns, the drop ship, the sulaco, the apc, they all looked ****ing awesome.

But visually in terms of set design and the overall look, Alien 3 was the most interesting of the bunch, for me. But it's a Fincher movie, that's to be expected. I liked that he brought his own style, but still stayed pretty true to Giger's whole style as well.

Newt: Are we gonna sleep all the way home?
Ripley: All the way home.
Newt: Can I dream?
Ripley: Yes, honey. I think we both can.
[tucks Newt in]
Ripley: Sleep tight.
Newt: I-ffirmative.

:(
 
Hudson: [after the drop ship crash] That's great, this is really ****in' great, man. Now, what the f*** are we supposed to do? We're in some pretty ***** now, man.
Hicks: [Grabs him by the shirt] Are you finished?
Newt: Guess we're not gonna make it, are we?
Ripley: I'm sorry, Newt.
Newt: Don't be sorry, it wasn't your fault.
Hudson: That's it, man. Game over, man. Game over, what the f*** are we supposed to now, huh, what are we gonna do?
Burke: Maybe we can build a fire, sing a couple of songs, huh, how about we try that.
Newt: We gotta get inside. It's gonna be dark soon, and they mostly hunt at night. Mostly.
 
Hicks: "I say we take off, nuke the entire site from orbit. It's the only way to be sure."

Ripley's got this look like "Marry me."
 
It's pretty much impossible for me to put into words how much I love Aliens. Blargh.
 
I'd start namin quotes with you guys, but you've hit all my favorites...:(

Hudson's death is awesome though...

"YOU WANT SOME!? Huh? OH YOU WANT SOME TOO!? **** YOU!"
 
Lovin' the Aliens love :D I think you guys have pretty much posted the entire script, except for...
Ripley: Get away from her you *****!
 
"Check those corners...check those corners!"

"Stay frosty"

"Marines, we are leaving!!"
