-
Dr. Wren: I think you'll find that things have changed a great deal since your time.
Ripley: Oh, I doubt that.
-
Elgyn: She is severely fuckable, isn't she?
-
Annalee Call: Jesus Christ, Johner, what do you put in this shit, battery acid?
Johner: Just for color.
-
Distephano: I thought you were dead!
Ripley: Yeah, I get that a lot.
-
Johner: Hey, Vriess, you got a socket wrench? Maybe she just needs an oil change. Can't believe I almost fucked it.
Vriess: Yeah, like you never fucked a robot.

Trivia:
|
- Angelina Jolie was originally approached to play Winona Ryder's role
- 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.
- 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.
- Writer Joss Wheadon wrote Christie's character with Chow Yun-Fat in mind. Chow Yun-Fat's manager and producer Terence Chang turned down the role for him.
- In the theatrical release, H.R. Giger is not credited for his part in the design of the Aliens. The video release has his name in the closing credits.
