I was wondering if anyone else has seen this. I want to say it was about 5 years ago, I saw a version of Aliens on AMC one night that was exactly like the Special Edition release but had one extended scene in it. (It may of had more but I caught it 20 minutes before the scene) It is an extended conversation between Burke and Ripley about Burke sending the colonists to the derelict ship. Has anyone else seen this and/or knows where I can find this? I have the quadrilogy and Anthology but neither has this scene.

@shardy...I agree with you about 'Aliens', I have my very own purturbed feelings about it, but I do have to say, Cameron wanted the extra scenes in his film. Fox was horrified with the length and forced him to make trims throughout. When he brought it to them a second time, the cut we know as the theatrical cut, they wanted him to trim again, but he absolutely refused. They reached a compromise in which that cut would stay the way it was and Cameron signed a contract to direct two future projects for Fox, one of which I believe was 'True Lies'. Trust me, if Cameron had had his way, pretty much all of those scenes would have made it in.

@craigamore: well, with that info regarding Fox and the studio heads, i can more than understand why Cameron would be forced to cut said scenes it's really quite a shame too, but he did get a nice deal out of it after all i guess thanx for that info

No problem @shardy, glad I could help...you should check out the documentary narrated by John Hurt called, 'The Alien Saga'....it's very informative and enlightening about all four films...(it's where I got the cameron info).

Spartacus, In addition to Ripley running into Burke, I heard that she also runs into Hudson.. Hudson says to Ripley "Ripley... Do you have any Pepto Bismol?"... Ripley just shakes her head and leaves...

The reason she gave the grenade to Burke was because he had been implanted. Blowing himself up would be considered a small mercy compared to his order that resulted in wiping out an entire colony.
