Quotes:

-
Ripley: These people are here to protect you. They are soldiers.
Newt: It won't make any difference.
-
Ripley: What do those pulse rifles fire?
Gorman: 10 millimeter explosive tip caseless. Standard light armor piercing round. Why?
-
[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.
-
Gorman: I'm coming in.
Hudson: I feel safer already.
-
Newt: We'd better get back, 'cause it'll be dark soon, and they mostly come at night... mostly.

Trivia:
|
- Michael Biehn's character gets bitten on the hand by another character. This happens to him in every James Cameron movie he's in - see The Abyss and The Terminator.
- 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.
- Only six alien suits were used. The appearance of hundreds of aliens is simply clever editing and planning.
- During the scene inside the APV preparing for battle, "El riesgo vive siempre" can be seen scrawled in white across Vasquez's armor. This is Spanish for "The risky always live"
- The body mounts for Vasquez's and Drake's smart guns are taken from Steadicam gear.
