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!

 Post subject: Call of duty 4 Aliens references

Just been playing the first level of call of duty 4, very good game as it happens on the first level I noticed a few things i recognise from my fav movie

The team approaches a shut door and before opeing it one of them pulls a shotgun and says "ill keep this for close encounters", then the commander says "stay Frosty" and when it all goes wrong he says "Marines we are leaving".....anyone else notice any Alien esque references in games (Alien / Predator games of course not allowed) :D

There's a ton of Aliens dialogue in Call of Duty 4... you'll also hear, "Check those corners..."

A dropship which also closely resembles the dropship we all know and love... :)

I noticed them aswell. I found it quite funny when one of the SAS pulls out the shotty and utters the close encounters line. Starcraft has ALOT of aliens references. Just continue to click on each individual class ie. marine, firebat, ghost etc. and alot of em will spout aliens lines. Each character has like.....10 lines of dialogue each.

LoL yeah, that's the terran dropship unit, and yeah, whoever said it looks a lot like a UD-4 Cheyenne is dead on.

The Ghost spouts Ripley's "Where ya want it" line, too. What else... if I recall correctly the Marines can be heard to say both halves of the "Bug hunt" line in two seperate lines. Anyone else remember any more?

The marine asks how he can "get out of this chickensh*t outfit" Also probably the fact that alot of the marines have graffitti all over their armor is a pretty obvious homage to Aliens.
