The discussion of the Alien series of films and the props used in them is the aim, but if it's got Big Bugs and Big Guns, then they are welcome too!

Let's rock? Game Over? Get away from her you mean lady monster?
Not your own personal favorite, but how the movie is most remembered.
I think "We're on an express elevator to hell, Going Down!"

To me the most (re-)motivating line, whenever I'm busy & to keep myself going most definitely has to be: "Let's move like we got a purpose!". Having had that very line as my subtitle on one of those typical network platforms for a while, at some point someone (a working colleague) who I phoned up and who I'm otherwise in contact with through the same network platform must have read that line in my profile there and almost immediately went like: "Aha, you're an Alien fan, are you..?" So, there you have it, folks. This is some bit of a memorable line at least to "insiders"...

Regards

To me, the most memorable and also iconic line is, "Get away from her YOU BITCH!"

And the line that best sums the film up, "Game over..."

But my fave is "Don't ask me man, I only work here"

I think the most popular have been posted......'Game Over!!' especially.

But personally....Hicks yelling 'MARINES: WE ARE LEAV-ING!!' will always have a place in my heart :)

I think all the cool one's come from Hudson or Hicks ;)

Definetly mine, too!

But I also love "It's game over, man. Game over!"

I'kk have to go with those as the ones I always remember the movie by, so to me those are the most memorable.

"Express elevator to hell... going down..."

I get a lot of mileage out of "Looks like a goddamn town meeting" - usually when there's a crowd in the kitchen at work.

personally the line that stays with me is hudsons last stand in operations "Come on! Come on! Come and get it, baby! Come on! I don't got all day! Come on! Come on! Come on you bastard! Come on, you too! Oh, you want some of this? Fuck you! "

but as you would imagine i dont get to pull it out to often, i mostly use "how do i get out of this chicken shit outfit?"...mostly...

Too bad he says "DRAKE WE ARE LEAVING!" (ducks and hides :wink: )

We (as in us at D-Con) started the "MARINES" line. 8)

As for my memorable line?

"Is he f#$@ing crazy?"

Or maybe- "Look into my eye!"

Hey Bishop... do the the thing with the knife.
I guess she doesn't like the corn bread either.
Any time anywhere
Bay 15 please
Good idea, Bishop should go
you secure that shit Hudson. (These two get some of the best lines together)
I love the harsh language line too.
Doesn't mean we're engaged or anything like that (or however it goes.)
It won't make any difference
Love at first site.
Arse holes and elbows.. you know the drill

The lines I usually have people yell at me at conventions are usually "Game over, man" and "Let's Rock!" so, I'd say those are the most memorable for most people.

My personal favorite will always be: "Mira, who's Snow White?" "Supposed to be some kinda 'consultant.' Apparently, she saw an alien once."

I'd chime in, but you all already know what I'm going to say anyway :lol:

Honestly though, the movie simply has too many to pick just one.

:oops: Errr, yes, there too.

"Somebody wake up Hicks" is I think, the family's favourite here.

The one line that's has been stuck in my heart forever is Hick's talking about the cornbread; "It's good for you, boy, eat it". Reason being my father, who happens to also be a fan of Aliens, would quote that line to me at the dinner table when I was little.

"...but dad, I don't LIKE Turnip Greens!"
"It's good for you, boy, eat it".

Gosh, the memories...
