MemberTrilobiteApril 19, 2017Lots of choices but you only get one! I guess I would have to choose Ripley from Aliens:
"You know, Burke, I don't know which species is worse. You don't see them fucking each other over for a goddamn percentage. " Sorry for the F bomb Chris, but it is a quote.
Care to weigh in?
Grinning & Dropping Linen I thought you probably liked that quote for some strange reason ;)
Ash: "I admire its purity. A survivor... unclouded by conscience, remorse, or delusions of morality."

Ash-I can't lie about your chances....you have my sympathies
Nothing the God of biomechanics wouldn't let you in heaven for
TY! I've always loved that quote, it sums the Alien up so chillingly. :)

Blackwinter-witch Agreed. I think Ripley's quote summed up the crux of the Company's agenda vs Humanity's protest of being sold out in general. A quote that can encompass politics, theology and ethics.
I agree totally with you about Ripley's quote!! I love how she compares Humans to Aliens and manages to make us sound worse :)

@BWW - That too, is my favorite. It's so hard to pick one, and after a good watching marathon I will probably pick another favorite, lol.
Why? Why are the innocent punished? Why the sacrifice? Why the pain? There aren't any promises. Nothing certain. Only that some get called, some get saved. She won't ever know the hardship and grief for those of us left behind. We commit these bodies to the void with a glad heart. For within each seed, there is a promise of a flower, and within each death, no matter how small, there's always a new life. A new beginning. Amen.

There's a pretty decent number to choose, and there's nothing stating two people cannot share a common favorite. :)

Yeah, true. And it did have some really well-developed characters.

Love it in ALIEN when Parker and Brett are fixing things on Nostromo and Brett says something like "Nah, shouldn't have landed on this damn ball" Cracks me up every time :)
"Kane's son"
Sorry, my bad, got too caught up in things, forgot the rules. Human Error 404 (Brain Not Found) :D
