'Hey Vasquez, you ever been mistaken for a man?' - 'No, have you?' Best line in Aliens! RIP Mr Paxton
"Vazquez heard Alien and she thought illegal alien."
My fave line is.. 'he's coming in.. I feel safer already' 😂
Huxxy harsh language! 😂
Game Over Man ! Game Over!
@@jfalconredskins All aliens are illegal, how dare they come to earth without a visa.
“Game over man, game over”
The great Bill Paxton RIP ❤️
Definitely one of the greatest!
How do i get out of this chickenshit outfit?
Sadly.... i ask myself that almost daily. Hudson gave voice to my mid life crisis lol.
The Vette gets em wet.. ~ True Lies
U571 TV series TRAINING DAY ...believe he passed during ...good series....plus he met Arnie....died shortly after but à good un RIP.
"With those things running around!!" we won't last 17hrs!
Bill Paxton was such a loss; I really am sorry that he passed away, I love all the characters he played... he was such a high energy, talented actor, and seemed like a really nice person.
x
GREAT ACTOR .. 👍.. MISS THAT GUY.
They know which ones are Jesus
So sad, his passing at a young age. I totally enjoyed his performances in every film I saw him in.
Game over man, GAME OVER!
I never get tired of this movie. Paxton adds so much humor and life to the movie. A classic!
I watch it every year on my birthday lol.
Sigourney has aged gracefully and beautifully. No ridiculous plastic surgery, a real classy lady! 💞
SW has always been a spoiled rich kid. No stress, no money worries, **NO WORRIES AT ALL**! (Thanks, Dad...)
She aged really well.
@TheColdWish
Got me laughing.
I'd Sigourney...her, Weaver? Wait, I'd weave her Sigourney? Sigourney Weaver is hot. 😐
@@CLASSICALFAN100 And no heavy lifting. Is that the reason? You're on to something CLASSICALFAN100.
"Pre CGI. No fancy computer effects..." That's why it looked so good.
Indeed
They also said an era before green screens but Star Wars was using blue screens years before this. Aliens uses a ton of rear-projection, as did The Terminator, which accomplishes the same thing. Of course King Kong used rear projection in 1933.
It's not just looks, there were also much, much fewer self-contradicting and plain dumb stuff in the plot, and no idiotic characters like in recent movies of the franchise.
@@FanboyFilms I know that Green Screens are preferred nowadays (& for certain things I think they are better) but I kinda prefer Blue Screen shots. At least for outdoor shots.
@Donald Trump first time I've agree with you on anything.
My favorite line from any film: "I might be synthetic, but I'm not stupid" -- Bishop (Lance Henriksen) Bill -- you left us all too soon. You are missed. Bill Paxton (RIP)
Yeah True
My favorite: "Why arent we freezing him"
@@j.r09160 -- Yeah!
The Lady who played Newt was perfection!
"They mostly come out at night. Mostly."
Newt was perfect. She wasn't magic. She just knew what the score was. She was a survivor.
Rip Bill the only person to fight Aliens, Predator and Terminator!!
Also Lance Henriksen
Plus a bunch of tornadoes!!
And he had 3 wives in the hbo show big love, rip bill.
Ah I keep forgetting he was in T1. His character in Predator 2 is awesome, and he's probably my fave, most often quoted character from Aliens. We even used to paraphrase Hudson at college when discussing cutting class "What with Dr Lockwood running around? You can count me out!" Good times.
...and loose to them all...
RIP Bill. What a cool actor.
Yeah, RIP...heard a podcast with him, and he seemed like a genuine, down-to-earth dude...and he was stand out hilarious in Weird Science! lol
He was one of those who could make any role work.
Yep. Sometimes you had to look twice or look again to see that it was him. Like when he played the Sgt in Edge of Tomorrow.
ErizotDread those are womens underpants!
Yeah he was great and will be missed
Still one of the all-time greatest films ever made. The cast was phenomenal.
The greatest sci-fi movie of all time!!!
Before watching this, I thought "it's a shame Bill Paxton died and missed this reunion". I was so happy to see he was still alive and made it to be a part of this.
I said the same thing and that had me looking him up on Wikipedia. Actually this re-union and its posting was six years ago, and it's coming up in our suggested viewing is all.
RIP Bill Paxton.
" Game over man"
Gliese 581c It’s never Game Over for Bill
Bill paxton when bishop uses the knife it isn’t funny man ..
Ahahaha, my brother and I always say that line. Too funny. lol
Justget Onwithit of course! 😂
Great unscripted one liner.
It's mostly the original cast, mostly.
blarson12 yeah. Mostly. Not all.
+Lohan Cindy
lol. good one.
Nice.😊
Lohan Cindy
I see what you did there. :)
Lohan Cindy I find you witty.
I remember walking out of the theatre when I seen this movie telling my dad "Wow! That was amazing!"....
Agreed - I went to opening night with friends of mine and I was BLOWN AWAY. I went with my dad and uncle about two weeks later and they also loved it! I STILL love it and will have it on at least a couple of times per year - it's become a kind of comfort film.
Nice
Alien was a great movie, i watched this with my friend in 1986, soon as the movie ended, the audience all stood up and gave it their standing ovation applause ...
That’s dope
Wish Jeanette Goldstien who played vazquez was there she too was iconic
Yeah.
I couldn't tell... whom did they NOT talk to in that cast group? Was it Bill Paxton?
As for me they all were a perfect team. Aliens is my desktop film. Very often I turn it before going to bed.
I get that, but for me, Newt's constant screaming and mindlessly getting into trouble mars it deeply.
Well, she is not white.
Somebody said Aliens...she thought illegal aliens and signed up...
One of the greatest movies of all time. I still can't believe Sigourney didn't win the Oscar.
It was PC night again. They had to give it to the deaf mute for basically playing herself.... Not a woman who hates gun and just so happens to be the strongest female action hero ever put on film.
She should have got it. No doubt in my mind!!!
That was a crime against all logic. Such an utter shame.
She should have.
I don’t think it had anything to do with being PC back then. The Academy simply didn’t give out Oscars to Action/Sci-Fi actors or directors because they didn’t consider these films to be works of serious art. Ignorant thinking but that’s how it was. Especially considering the caliber of acting that Sigourney did in this film. That kind of bias is also why Spielberg, despite all his incredible films in the 70’s & 80’s, never won an Oscar until he did Schindler’s List.
I loved the original and the second Aliens movie the most. Sigourney truly lived her role and made it immortal🙏! I can never tire watching both the movies.
She sure did
Fun fact, Aliens, the Terminator franchise and Tombstone all featured Hicks and Hudson.
I wonder what kind of reaction Bill Paxton and Michael Biehn gave each on set of Tombstone. Hey I remember you.
Right after Aliens, Bishop ,Vasquez and Hudson played vampires in the movie After Dark.
I am Hicks, he’s Hudson, sir
@@georgefromgeorgia2478 reverse those 2 and you got it
Saw it three times at the theatre in '86
Still my all time favorite movie
R.I.P. Bill Paxton
How'd you see it in a cinema in 86 if it came out in 79?
@@jackeaton6427 Stfu moron.😠
Jack Eaton he is talking about Aliens which was in 1986
Same man, I was 4 when it came out on VHS, sat out and watched it with my mum, still the best movie ever made.
I always liked Michael Biehn. It's a shame he didn't get more opportunities in Hollywood.
Yah me too he was an awesome actor I love all his work
He's phenomenal, one of my faves.... I agree, I wish he got better opportunities, but most Biehn fans don't realize how many great roles/movies are on his list.... most just think Hicks, and Kyle Resse..... If you looks at all his roles/films he's got a lot...
Terminator being his best to me
Aliens
The Abyss
Tombstone
The Rock
Navy Seals
Time Bomb
The Seventh Sign
Planet Terror
Deadfall
Also just announced he's gonna be in Mandalorian season 2.
Tombstone!
He made a god-awful spy thriller with Patsy Kensit in the very late 80s early 90s which was so bad it had to be seen to be believed. Much better as a character than a lead.
@@HighlandMike325 Are you kidding me? To each their own pal... Time Bomb is an awesome movie, and Michael Biehn is great as the lead.... totally, totalllllly disagree. Extremely underrated film. Also Terminator is arguable who the lead is.
Imagine if Carrie was your teacher. “Ok children, I won’t be in next Monday, as I’ll be flying to San Diego for Comic-Con for the weekend, so you have an extra day to finish the assignments.”
She mostly teaches at night, mostly
@@Bojanglesz89 how would you know?
@@sliat1981 Watch the movie again and pay attention to her lines =)
@@Magneticitist watch the MOVIE!? Aliens (1986) 🤣😂
I would be like “aaafirmitive”
My all time favorite movie sure glad they got together while Bill Paxton was still with us
One of the absolute best Horror Sci-Fi movies of alle time.
Starship troopers novel came first. And the original Alien is better leaving much more potential in its sequel that was wasted. But too bad the sequel ended up being a starship troopers refix
Everything 1-4 is great in it's own way, but first two are definitely masterpieces!
Corporal_Hicks 1977 AMEN! They kept adding more and more aliens but never recaptured the camaraderie of the first cast and the shock of our first encounter with the Face Hugger, Chest Buster and grown up alien. Kudos to H.R. Giger!
No, Alien was. Not Aliens.
Absolutely LOVE this move & Cameron is a genius but also remember people...if there was no Alien & Ridley Scott there would be NO Aliens. For those who don't know, Ridley's also the guy who gave us Blade Runner & if u haven't seen Prometheus yet do it! Ridley hasn't lost his touch & imo it redeemed the Alien franchise...
No CGI, yet the effects are mostly excellent. Maybe Hollywood could learn something here.
Perfect way to put it.
R C Nelson 100% agree there
They are mostly excellent at night, mostly
It's the reliance on CGI and no motivation the cost to create practical effects that is massively sad.
*Aside, the Stranger Things monster would have been aces if it was practical.
Ray Harryhausen set the bar for realistic and spectacular special effects dating back to the 50s.
The practical effects made the movie more timeless! CGI is great but practical effects bring films to life.
RIP Bill, still one of the best movies ever.
The woman who played Newt is a teacher?
Man, must be lucky to have her as a teacher.
"They mostly get bad grades.
Mostly..."
Mostly..............
And a cutie too, as expected.
"It wont make a difference..."
I bet it's instant detention if you ask her to say that line.
Dork
"Remember this was pre-CGI""
(*wipes a tear away)
A beautiful time...
CGi is not a bad thing. just an over used thing
Reborn8303 True. The CGI in Jurassic Park was excellent and perfectly balanced with real models.
+Neoquaker1 And men in suits like Godzilla ;)
Terminator and The Thing are from that era too. They still hold up today.
No mention of Stan Winston.... The only man to bring these amazing monsters to life... RIP Stan Winston.
James Cameron has always made gems. Perhaps the director of all time.
Did you know he stole the story of Terminator from an author? She forced him to add her name to the credits by law. James knows a good story, like Avatar for instance. But it is the tale of Pocahontas, thinly disguised.
He does direct well, of course, and I am a huge fan. But never put anyone on a pedestal.
@@christianzillare you talking about Harlan Ellison? Honestly in that case, I think Harlan was taking it a bit too far by claiming plagiarism. Cameron was clearly inspired by his works, but didn’t outright plagiarise them
@@christianzilla Ellison is known for accusing people of "stealing" his/her works lol
Sigourney... 68 and still looking beautiful !
No. Plastic surgery.
theo9952 I agree. She looks good.
theo9952 Yep! She along with a few other actresses chose to age gracefully and still looks great!
theo9952 wow 68, didnt know that. Still looks very nice. Lance looks old now, cant believe how they have aged
no ... she was in hypersleep for 30 years, so she still looks like 38
Just watched the film again today (lost count of how many times I have). Even though I can probably cite the dialogue line by line, it still never gets old. An all time classic.
Alien and Aliens are classic sci fi. Even classic horror. Arguably the best in the genres.
Could watch all day every day absolutely fantastic legend 👍
Me too. And I´m not aglosaxon speaker :)
When you guys keep saying classic, makes me feel old 😂
I find it hard to believe these "reporter" ladies would sit through even 1 minute of this awesome movie
Agreed! Always makes me cringe!
Bill Paxon made his character, Hudson, so memorable. He had the best lines.
“Game over, man, game over!”
Why don't you put her in charge?
@steelhound duncan lol that makes sense. It did seem spontaneous and in retrospect I can’t see a writer actually writing that kind of line into the dialogue haha. Thanks for the information.
Sigourney had the "BITCH, PLEASE" face before flaming the nest :D
OMG that's what I thought too!
Ripley looks at the queen and realizes she's trying to trick her. The queen gestures her warriors to back off so that Ripley doesn't go off with the flamethrower while at the same time has other warriors sneak up from the sides.
That's when Ripley goes "... Bitch please". Not some indecisive bullshit "like "should I or shouldn't I".
Wtf, Michael Beinn! How many times did you NOT watch this scene??
I think he thought the same, I think he was hoping others would cue in and that he wouldn't have to suggest this expletive, but he realised they weren't sure what exact moment he was referring to.
Actually what happens is the queen gestures the guards to back off. The queen allows Ripley and Newt to go. Then Ripley gives the look and flames everything. An act of vengeance for all those human lives the aliens had taken. So Beihn has it right.
A Jalapeño Actually what happens is first the queen seems to let them go when Ripley threatens her with the flamethrower (by shooting a flame in the air and then pointing it at an egg), but when they try backing out one of the eggs suddenly opens, showing the queen is actually treacherous - that's why Ripley gets pissed and flames the nest.
The queen can't magically make the eggs open, right? Eggs hatch on their own. If it were an "ambush", the queen wouldn't open an egg right in front of Ripley; it would be behind her instead. It just so happened that an egg hatch. And that triggered Ripley's fury.
RIP John Hurt and Bill Paxton
Both great actors. John Hurt's last memorable roles in my mind are in movies Icebreakers and V For Vendetta.
And of course, Bill Paxton as the drill sargeant in Edge of Tomorrow.
They are both great actors and now they are both dead. Learn to read English well.
RIP Harry Dean Stanton & Bolaji Badejo
Manny Lugz well then I'm gonna go RIP Charles Chaplin and Clint Eastwood, wonderful actors.
lazyatthedisco lol seems some ppl dont have any idea that John Hurt and Bill Paxton both appeared in an Alien movie. John Hurt was the unfortunate scientist in Alien 1 who got facehugged and then the alien later bursts out of his chest.
Of course Bill Paxton is the talkative marine Hudson in Alien 2 /Aliens.
The young lady is Carrie Ann Henn ( the little girl Newt), she only made Aliens and became a teacher. Sigourney Weaver still stays in contact with her and brings her to many events.
One of my favorite Sci-Fi films of all time. They nailed it...director, actors, the script...nailed it!
Exactly agree 💯 %
Nobody has nailed it like that since. T2 was pretty close though.
I can't believe Bill Paxton passed away 😭 so young.
Rest in peace...
No cgi what so ever and it gave me nightmares
Tbh old films always seem more scary than today's films. The aesthetic, the simple designs and even the music
russ9696962 I totally agree
russ9696962 movie soundtracks better back then too
my altime scary movie was "the omega man"1971 ( later remade" I am legend" will smith) that thing kept me up all night(I was only 9), longest night of my life. ...havent never rewatched it, afraid it will spoil that memory
jawadad802 I've never seen it :/ . For what it's worth.. happy new year lol
My God this movie is 100% LEGIT. Best sequel ever made..hands down. And one of the best sci fi movies ever made (period)
Er... Godfather 2?.... Empire Strikes Back?.... The Good, The Bad, The Ugly?
But yeah, Aliens is Defo a great one.
@shaz2761 Didn't realize the Good, the Bad and the Ugly wad a sequel. Love those movies you listed for sure.
@@mullcrumthesage6303 fair dos. Forgot Terminator 2 and Return of the King as well haha
What an amazing cast! The world is less without Bill Paxton, he is considered my favorite actor! Loved his films and pretty cool how he was from my home state TX! He seemed like such a great honorable and special individual. He will forever be in my heart R.I.P. ❤🤠✌🙏🎥
Yes I was heart broken when I heard. That year was rough for me and my family in general, especially between me and my husband. Prayers to his family still for such a loss of a global talent and Giant in the biz.

The BEST movie ever. Sigourney Weaver is the Queen. Still beautiful.
MORE beautiful now than 35 years ago actually
There is no better Aliens movie due to her acting. Would love to see more.
Where's the black guy?
She is a great actress
@@reggaefan2700 actor died before the interview i believe
Sigourney Weaver is the most, and will be the best, bad ass actress that ever hit the screen.
Sigourney Weaver and Linda Hamilton. Both awesome badasses.
Reginald Andrews me too... she always seemed kinda nuts tho
+Plen122 The actress or her character in t2? lol
Michael Taishi Singleton And Linda Hamilton
MKF30 both I guess!
Watching this made my day ! Love them . All there characters were all memorable! The gift that keeps on giving lol jejeje
"They mostly come at night......mostly"
One of my favourite movie quotes to this day!
Alien and Aliens were simply amazing and unmatched for many many years even now most sci fi horror movies fail miserably to come close to these.
Having watched "Alien" today, I noted that as much as the picture is beautiful, the plot (in the second half of the film) is more than confusing and inconsistent. In the best tradition of Mr Ridley.
@@alexpetrov8871 Itr's a haunted house type of movie, it's a very different kind of movie compared with Aliens. I like them both equally, though Aliens obviously is a bigger budget movie. Aliens generally has a better cast, so that might make it somewhat of a better movie, but they both have their place.
Hudson is the first to open his mouth 30 years later.
It's game over man, game over!
Why don't you put her in charge!
Why don't we just count him out of the next reunion.
Hey Vasquez, have you ever been mistaken for a man?
Its because he is uncertain as to whether this is going to be just another bug hunt ...
Great cast, and movie! Still can't believe Bill Paxton is gone. Left us way to soon, RIP Hutson.
I love the whole series, Sigourney made the franchise bottom line. Everyone else played there part well. Aliens without Sigourney is like Terminator with no Arnold.
02:05 And thats the Reason why the 80´s SiFi Movies are still better than anything came out in CGI Age.
CGI sucks balls. They made GREAT films back then because they didn't have the facility to get whatever they wanted. They had to work for it.
Cgi is fine. Bad cg is what is not fine.
Idk I really liked Annihilation...
Edit: fixed a grammatical error
Oh yeah. *high five*
CGI makes better visual effects dude, don't be such a sentimentalist, that being said aliens is a better movie than most modern film's because it's very interesting, it's definitely in top 5 favorite movies, most films are so unimaginative now, especially those annoying superhero movie's
"Remember this was pre-CGI. No fancy computer effects or green screens existed"
Yeah, proper film making.
The lady that said that is a moron, There was CGI + Green + Blue screens it is common knowledge-Look it up
Somehow George Lucas ignored this.
There was no CGI. Nothing like there is today. Processors were not power enough, and there was nowhere the memory needed to do Computer Generated Graphics. They used miniature models. Computers back then were mostly text driven programs and crude stickman graphics. They had no power to generate graphics you see in today's movies. Even within the Alien movie at the beginning, you can see this in their supposed future control panels guiding the Nostromo. The only graphics they had, even in the imagined state of the movie, were mostly text driven. Even "mother" was text driven. As for Green screen, it was crude and even in a finished movie you could tell it was green screen because everything in the foreground had a black outline around it. George Lucas, in his star wars movies used stop action photography to make his "Walkers" vehicles move. In later releases of those star wars movies he did add computer graphics though.
thats true, but when cgi is done properly

One of those great memorable films you can watch many times over..!
Bill Paxton and Lance were in Near Dark together. A different kind of vampire movie that many people haven't seen.
As soon as Bill Paxton spoke, I got a little sad. RIP.... "Game Over Man!"
RIP Bill Paxton 2/25/17
Gonna miss you, I grew up watching Twister and I loved you in also Apollo 13
Awesome! RIP Bill Paxton. It's so sad to see him so full of energy here and know that he passed away not long after this. So many of the cast have passed away now. But i'm glad they had a reunion.
Btw I loved Bill Paxtons answer on how to sum up the film question 🎥 🍿 He seems like a real down to earth guy and such a great judge of character ! ❤️☺️💞🥰
I’m in absolute awe of this sequel..Sigourney and Vasquez changed my life as a women forever. Grateful 😌💕
I love your comment.
So true. It's not only one of the best movie of all-time. It's also the film where the smartest, the toughest, the most heroic and the most scary R all woman. ie, Ripley, Vasquez, Newt, Ferro and last but not least, The Queen.
Good that they got the main cast, but definitely think Jeanette Goldstein needed to be there. She was so awesome as Vasquez.
+steelhound Duncan What about the other female marine called Ferro? She's the one who said "five by five". I can't remember how she died in Aliens.
An Alien killed her in the cockpit and crashed the ship
Ferro lived on as a starcraft pilot lol
The fact that no CGI was used made this movie timeless. It would have aged really badly if they had used it.
Saw it the first week it released. Just watched it again. Still remarkable and utterly watchable.
Please, bring in Vasquez next time.
youreale - she sells bras now. True fact.
@Nurhayat Leon Guerrero
No, she's not. I ran into her back in 2015 at a Costco and she's gorgeous...and pretty nice, too!
She went down with The Titanic.
"No... Have you?"
Damned right! Not inviting Jenette Goldstein to this reunion was an unforgiveable slight! And UNLIKE Carrie Henn who never acted in another film, Jenette Goldstein played countless roles in film and TV, not the least being her iconic performance in Terminator 2
"Aliens"inspired me to enlist during a time when women were supposed to sit back and let men do that. My military experience many years later helped me to help others during 911 in NYC and Superstorm Sandy that destroyed nearly all of New Jersey. Thank you Sigourney Weaver for teaching us girls as children that we matter and that when there is a will there is a way!
For all those 2nd wave feminists that complain that there arent enough strong female characters and try to solve it by ruining Ghostbusters, I say.... LOOK AT ALIEN and ALIENS!!!
ELLEN RIPLEY - was a total badass in both of them!
Didnt matter she was female! What an inspiration to me.
I'm not a woman, but yeah ripley is very inspiring. I hate it when everyone is like captain marvel is the first female hero, when there's wonder woman, ripley, etc.
And she did it by rising up against the odds, not by insulting those around her. There are days where it seems that if a movie/tv show wasn't made after 2010, journlists and activists pretend it doesn't exist.
Yeah, that movie inspired me into wanting to enlist, until my dad talked me out of it, lol.
This video made me chuckle with the cast so many times! Thanks!
This is still one of the best action movies ever made. Period.
Sigourney Weaver is perfect on the last minutes of the movie
Aliens is my all time favorite movie ever. I still watch the blu ray movies today
indeed, the best ever! ;-)
Me too. I hope Covenant will be great as well.
Agreed
Good pick !
hiawa23 Same,best movie of all time!
RIP Bill Paxton. Too soon, man!
He must be still alive, somewhere out there in the cosmos (perhaps the multiverse), in some kind of form or another.
Loved it! 😁❤️ RIP Bill Paxton 😢
Without question the greatest series of sci-fi movies ever!!!!!
RIP Bill Paxton....
All possible because of James Cameron.....simply the best
"Simply the best,better than all the rest" just like Tina Turner sang
James Cameron, the greatest pioneer!
R.I.P Bill you were great in everything I saw you in
FACTS!!!!!!!!!!!!
one of the best movie ever. it should be continued with this team
All these guys are legends.
I've watched this movie like 100,000 times and it has alway's been satisfying.
I've told you a million times not to exaggerate.
If you watched the theatrical version 100,000 times you'd have to watch it constantly for 26 years, if you watched the special edition 100,000 times you'd need to watch it constantly for 29 years.
2 much🤣
I should add the film is only 25 years old
GAME OVER MAN............. GAME OVER
RIP Bill Paxton
Haha. it lives in my mind
sadder that he died a shortly after this
Wait he Rip? :/ well rest in piece man.
'Yeah, man, but it's a dry heat!' I loved that character!
Looking back at Aliens, its just nice to see a multi-racial and gendered cast that came together because it worked for the script, the story and the dynamics of the characters...and not because of some forced, over-corrected, woke agenda that takes the viewer out of the movie and leaves them with a sour feeling of being manipulated at the expense of art.
So true!
That’s because this was made in 1986 and all of this division between white and black people wasn’t been orchestrated by the left and the media. The world was a happier place in the 1980’s.
That's what happens when talented people make the movies. It feels natural/organic and you accept it as a natural part of the story.
There would be some right-wing morons who would disagree with you. The fact there are women soldiers and people of color at all in this movie would be "woke" to them.
Nice summary. Would love to have seen the whole interview. My second favorite movie of all time. Right behind my first.
i agree. disappointed they didn't show more of this. For goodness sakes, they got so much of the cast together and then what 30secs?
"He's still in character after 30 years. He has never broken character." :D
Sigourney could read the phone book (do they still exist) and I'm in.
I've always had a inexplicable crush on her
I know what you mean. Did you see her in the movie Paul?
dkyelak
She was in this movie called Jeffrey where she was a motivational speaker. She had me at "You, with the bad perm."
mickeybunts I never thought of her that way since she was portrayed as an ordinary person and not a bimbo. She just reeks with class though and that is very attractive.
i never realized how tall sigourney weaver is. she seems to be an inch or more taller than all the men around her. a high elf warrior princess, good with miniguns and flamers, with extra points in strength and endurance . . . and charisma!
Brilliant movie and yes, still my all time favourite. I was 11 years old when I saw this. It scared the crap out of me & excited me. Lost count how many times I’ve watched it. Always put it on if it’s on cable or regular tv.
Very enjoyable thank you.
To this day Aliens and Alien are my very favorite horror films that I love to watch in the dark.
same.
well, creep show (both 1 + 2), they live, poltergeist, invasion of the body snatchers + the thing too. but thats it!
have you seen 'the thing'?
its really good also. the '82 version is my fav version of it, but '51 + '11 are good too.

@@xenomorph3066 ~ i meant your username “xenomorph”, as i am a huge fan of most of jims works (even though he annoys me that he wont release an updated quality blue ray or digital version of ‘the abyss’). i also have fat respect for giger + his phat work! i love ridley + fincher too.
so i love the proper noun xenomorph (specific to the aliens franchise), but also xenomorph as a general film genre.
One of the best movies of all time
Best scifi action horror of all time by far
with T2 off course
Of course this is a classic not even the new ones arent like this covenant tried but was also a good movie i think t2 t1 predator 1 2 predators matrix 123 are all the best
RIP BILL PAXTON. Just an amazing presence on and off screen. ❤️
one of the best sci fi horror films ever!!..to my friend al matthews rest in peace, he was a great guy.
As a young girl, Sigourney Weaver became my hero and role model. For the first time, a woman was the strongest of all and even smarter than an alien creature. Absolutely brilliant!
Not strongest... just more acute and driven to survive... and being all that without having to bash males for whatever feministic reasons. Great character and how a female protagonist should be.
Yep, and don't forget a great leader.
Far better to have real-life role models, such as 2-time Nobel Prize winner Marie Curie, or Daniella Ryf (3-time Ironman Triathlon World Champion), or psychiatrist Dr. Louise Jilek-Aal, a protege of Albert Schweitzer in his jungle hospital:
Here's some more info about each of them. (Good Luck!):

And (just for grins), here's the Academy Award winning film-biography of Albert Schweitzer and his great work:

Dude (or sis? Whatever ;-;). The entire point and reason we watch movies at all is for the "what-ifs". To get as far away from reality as possible and let our minds wonder. Sure, it's great to succeed in real-life and all, but successes in fiction are successes in fiction for one simple purpose; to be better than the successes in real life.
Shes in my top 5 favorite movie character of all time. Just goes to show you that you dont have to push stupid feminist agenda to get a female character over. Right Hollywood?
I liked this movie, but honestly the first one surrounds a lot of more mistery and takes you beyond the usual science fiction dimension
I feel the same way. I LOVE Aliens, just like I LOVE Terminator 2 (both Cameron's). But they are over-hyped action sequels, not the beauty, mystery, and darkness that is the originals; Alien and Terminator.
So many have passed away now! A memorable movie! ✌️👌🙌🏽👍🏽🤟🏼
so many legends in one place.. how awesome!
RIP Private Hudson.
Bill, you were great.
RIP Bill
You were the ultimate badass
one of my top fave movies of all time. definitely one of my pics to have if i had to be on lockdown for an extended time
My most favourite movie ever. It defines my preferences in films. I can'r get enough of it.
I'm Hicks, he's Hudson sir!
Hudson, sir. He's Hicks. Now how do I get out of this chickenshit outfit?
Look into my eye!
@Alexis Gonzalez My 16 year old son loves the second Alien installment too
@G E T R E K T 905 What do you want me to do, fetch your slippers for you? - Gee Sir, Would You? I'd like that.
what is it private?
R.I.P Bill Paxton. :(
I have loved the Alien films and the characters since I first saw the first film many years ago. I'm now 56 and even now, I still feel be I watch them all for the very first time 💜.
I prefer the term “artificial person” myself.
