- The Best Aliens Movie Quotes
From a fantastic script to elements of humor, there’s a lot of factors that make Aliens such a great white-knuckle violent roller coaster ride. Here are the best Aliens movie quotes from director James Cameron’s groundbreaking 1986 film.
The 1979 movie, Alien, made Sigourney Weaver an instant star. In the film, Weaver and her companions discover an abandoned spaceship on a newly discovered planet… but they’re not alone. A vicious alien creature is stalking them and incubating its young in the bodies of its victims. Luckily for us, Weaver makes it out alive, and we get to see the sequel titled Aliens, and all the great Aliens quotes on this list.
When it came time to film the sequel, Aliens, director James Cameron took the elements of fear and gore that made the original so memorable and went wild. Unlike Cameron’s other major films, including Terminator, True Lies, The Abyss, Titanic, and Avatar, Aliens is a very scary movie. It is a white-knuckle violent roller coaster ride and has one of the most intense finales in film history.
But there’s also a lot of humor. That’s part of what makes this movie so quotable. The film has a fantastic script and there are a ton of great Aliens movie quotes from all the characters.
