[img]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v234/LT.HIGHTIMES/PIA06143.jpg[/img] Question; can anyone tell me what the object in the picture is...?... If so, and you do get it right, it will be "Your Turn" to ask everyone some kind of Science Fiction or related Movie question... perhaps we can use media like pictures as well to spice it up for fun. Anyways I am going first...what's that in the picture?

Is it something like "Ideas being bounced around like balls on a pinball table" ?

Kudos...." I was getting up and making my way toward the door and David Giler, one of the producers of the first film, said, "We do have this other thing," and I said, "What's that?" He said, "Alien 2" and all the pinball machine lights and bells went off inside my head"....James Cameron

Here's the question, a 2 parter so 2 points available. Two characters in the franchise had a real life role reversal, who were they and what happened? 1 point for the characters and 1 point for what happened.

Instead of fighting 'mother,' Sigourney becomes 'mother.'" That's what was said when she played the computer for one of robot-building supercorporation Buy'n'Large's spaceships... in "Wall-E". But Ripley has an even bigger One in the film Alien Resurrection in which she becomes the thing she has been hunting all those years!!! Part Xenomorph !!!

I think the question is slightly misleading, i'll re-phrase it. Two characters in the franchise have their roles reversed in real life. Who are they and what role is reversed?

I know that Bill Paxton was a Carpenter who then became an Actor but I do not think Sigourney Weaver has ever been a carpenter...lol!!! She worked with one John Carpenter though.... I know I know..."Straws". !!!

I think I got this now The guy who played Apone, Al Mathews, was in the Military...a Marine I think... and then became an actor playing a military man. Weaver played a nobody hunting a Queen Alien and is now known with the nickname now as the "Queen of Science Fiction".

I'm off to bed now. As for the question, The answer was Sigourney/Ripley & Amanda/Elizabeth. The role that was reversed is Mother/Daughter. Current standings, Thadus12=21.5 Spartacus=15 Tec-B=13 Engineer Prototype - Model GAJ84 = 12 Snorklebottom=10.5 Tec-B=13 Theusprom-3 Neurion=3 Tattooedkoi= 3 Biomechanic=2 Marty=1 Jamieboy=1 SpaceJock=1 Rick=1 Caine1977=1 Thad=.5 Spartacus, you have the con, you deserve it.

Bonus Interruption Question For 3 Points ! A series of Aliens comic books were published that were set after the events in Aliens, featuring an adult Newt returning to space with a shell-shocked Hicks to stop the retrieval of an alien specimen by Weyland-Yutani corporation. The books were re-published to accommodate Alien³, with Newt re-named what?

With all due respect, and I do have respect for you, because you are the only person in the past hour that even attempted to answer my "wonderful", in my opinion, question... However, what I wanted to know, as the question implies, was what Newt's New Name was in this "Thang" ? and while you're at it for 2 more Bonus Points... [img]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v234/LT.HIGHTIMES/facehuggedins.jpg[/img] The Alien is _________ {9 letter word}, needing a host in order to reproduce, just as the Ichneumonoidea genus of insects do!!!
