Vasquez has the best lines: "No. Have you?" and "LET'S ROCK!!!!!"

one of the best sequels ever

One of the best movies ever made! Yes, that includes all genres.

Ripley went into that compound with two Squads of Marines, and came out carrying the last one.

What is better than one Alien? Answer: Two aliens What's better than two aliens? A shitload of them! 'Game over man!'

The idea behind Hicks taking a nap on the way down was to show that he’s a veteran. Experienced soldiers know that when you’re on mission your opportunities for eating and sleeping are greatly diminished. When you see soldiers stop for any amount of time they’re usually stuffing their faces with food or sleeping

Masterpiece ever. The best sequel ever ever. Great

James Cameron low key made a movie about mothers and daughters that men loved and didn't even realize they were watching. (He's actually said that: The movie is about mothers and daughters.)

Fun fact: the kid actress playing Newt kept messing up that scene @43:14 on purpose so she could slide down that vent over and over again. When the director James Cameron eventually found out, he just told her that if she completed the shot, she could do it as many times as she likes. She did, and he kept the promise.

This is one that is insane on a theater screen. OMG. I had the good fortune to see it with my boys back in the day. You guys were terrific with your observations. It's a really crazy film. Burke got his just reward didn't he. LOL As we say in Texas; y'all be safe.

1. Michael Biehn/Hicks played Reese in Terminator as did Bishop/Lance Henriksen as the assistant police chief. 2. Am I the only one thinking that maybe they're so cheap that they sent her back out hoping she isn't going to collect her back pay. 57 years is a shitload of Benjamins. They totally screwed her. 3. Bill Paxton and Lance Henriksen are the only two actors to have their characters killed in the "Alien", "Terminator" and "Predator" series. . 4. Possibly the best dialogue in the movie: Hudson, "Hey Vasquez, have you ever been mistaken for a man?" Vasquez, : "No have you?"🤣 5. Much of Bill Paxton's dialogue was ad-lib. RIP Bill😇 He was Chet in "Weird Science" 6. IRL Paul Riser's mom during a preview viewing actually stood up and cheered when his character Burke got his. 7. Carrie Henn/Newt after this movie her nickname became SCREAM. 8. Mom VS Mom. Don't piss off momma🤬🤬

Carrie Henn (Newt) said that the Assistant Director told her they would film the scene in the water the next morning. So he had the water kept warm overnight. The next morning Newt said the water was too hot, so her and the "Alien" sat on the side bathing their feet in the water till it cooled down. Carrie Henn gave up acting and became a Primary School teacher but her and Sigourney Weaver are still good friends. Another fact Paul Reiser's Mother went to watch the film. When the Alien grabbed him she stood up and cheered. I know you have to be aware of Copyright but I do think you cut bits of dialogue half way that spoils the meaning now and again.

This sequel is so great and complete, you literally do not, DO NOT🛑have to watch any of the films after this in the franchise. Trust me, you’d be surprised how this franchise looks, if this is the last thing you see of it, till they make a truly better sequel.

Hard to believe this film is nearly 40 years old and it still holds up to today's standards! Classic sci-fi action film that never gets old.

Fun facts, lets see here... The Alien Queen was created and brought to life curtesy of Stan Winston's Creature Workshop, and a team of 8 puppeteers! This movie also did a fantastic job of intermingling scenes of full scale sets with scale models. Its often difficult to even tell where it happens. The 15 minute countdown to the facility detonating was literally timed to 15 minutes worth of scenes :D

You edited out some of the best lines in the movie

This is the best sequel ever. Most people vote for T2, but I like this one better. It is notable that both were done by James Cameron. In my opinion his biggest mistake was getting into “Avatar.” His output could have equaled Spielberg’s otherwise. A note about Gorman: it wasn’t his fault. Gorman was a newly commissioned lieutenant with almost zero experience commanding in the field. If memory serves, the mission wasn’t deemed important enough to send a more seasoned officer. He did the best he could. Apone, his Sargent, ran the platoon. Gorman’s actions later in the movie show that, in time, he would have made a good officer.

Newt: "I was better in mah gotdamn hole" - ALIENS 1986 😂😂

One of my top three favorite movies of all time! Saw it in theaters 3 times when it came out. The first time I saw it, the audience was so in to it, when Ripley finally closed the Airlock at the end, there was literally a standing ovation in the theater.

One of the best action movies ever.

Ellen Ripley is the epitome of a true strong woman. Hard working, strength of character, no excuses, bad ass, a leader, etc. A true girl boss but with a motherly nature. Everything that a modern 'woke' woman is missing.

Both Gorman and Hudson going out like bosses. Burke getting what he deserves. Bishop proving himself right to the end. Ripley, one hundred percent throughout coming out as my all time favorite tough chick of cinema (if my memory serves me right). Hands down among best films out there.

And if you count Aliens 3 and Resurrection as fever dreams Ripley has on her way back to Earth on her way back to a normal life the series is basically perfect.

So glad you both watched this. Iconic movie and one of the best in the sci-fi/horror genre.

My favorite of the entire series. You need to see the special edition of this and you’ll see how the infestation started and what they did with the tunnel.

Awesome reaction and I liked how this and terminator 2 had similarities with showing the female leads suffering from trauma and no one believed them about their experiences.

The pinnacle of sci fi movies especially back in 1986 James Camerons masterpiece 30 years plus on this will always be a master classic

the only thing ripley couldn't do was crush the queen - the acid in her would destroy the ship.

45:44 When the computer says "You now have 15 minutes to reach minimum safe distance" it's EXACTLY 15 minutes in real time! You can't edit a film better than that! :D

The characters Bishop Hicks and Hudson those three actors were also in the original movie The Terminator with Linda Hamilton and Arnold Schwarzenegger. That was a nice thing about 1986 when you saw stuff like this and you recognize the people we still got excited about stuff finding out that actors were in this movie and they're in that movie and they started out in that movie.

So glad you guys watched the theatrical version. Too many idiot fans are telling reactors to watch the director's cut. The director's cut is fun to watch after you've already seen the theatrical. The stuff about Ripley's daughter is good, but seen Hadley's hope before the Marines got throws off the pacing and the Mystery. And all the Vietnam references are lost on today's audiences, and not worth the runtime.

My mom (marine vietnam vet) took me 8 yrs old and my brother to see this in theatres when it came out. Line wrapped around the building... but we watched it and it was totally awesome.

Quite possibly the best reaction to this movie ever, imagine being 13 and watching this at night BRILLIANT 😁😁

Ellen Ripley is one of the best characters in the entire history of cinema, she is the perfect hero, with exceptional charisma, who does what needs to be done and without any need for powers or other kind of magical stuff. please, don't spoil the good memories and good feelings that these two movies gave you by watching the other movies after these, if you want just watch the 2004 movie "alien vs predator", which is not bad at all, the other movies either are garbage (in part or in whole), or simply ruin what was done with the first 2.

Paul Reiser's character Burke was so despicable that his own mother cheered when he got killed! I love this movie. P.s. I'm old school and prefer practical effects ( when well done) vs. CGI.

The actor who played Burke. His mum actually cheered when his character died when she saw it lol

Truly an amazing film. I love you two watching these older movies together. You guys play off each other so well. How about a horror movie? I’d like to see y’all’s reaction to one of them bad boys.

BEST SCI-FI ACTION MOVIE EVER MADE! Nominated for 7 Oscars: Best Actress Sigourney Weaver Best Original Score, James Horner Best Production Design, Peter Lamont Best Film Editing Ray Lovejoy Best Sound Editing Best Sound Mixing Best Visual Effects, Stan Winston, John Richardson, Dennis Skotak, Robert Skotak. It won Best Visual Effects and Best Sound Mixing. It made $193 million dollars ($409 million dollars today) against an $18 million dollar budget.

Lieutenants seem to be generally disliked by the lower ranks, probably because they're the lowest commissioned officer rank. That means that a lot of lieutenants are straight out of officer school with zero practical experience while ordering around soldiers who've been doing this shit for *years.*

The Queen remains in the top 5 best practical movie effects ever

29:44 that is definitely one of the most famous lines in this franchise, "game over man, game over!" 🤣 40:54 your reaction was priceless like so many others!!!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Vasquez is also the foster mum in Terminator 2. Bill Paxtons reaction to the hand game was real because they didn't tell him that they were going to use his hand

Hudson's reaction to "five finger filet" was the right one.

When Paul Reiser's mom watched the movie she cheered when her son's character got killed by the alien haha

When Newt fell down the airshaft at the end they had a family friend who was like an Older Brother/Uncle to her dress up in a Bug Suit to try and cause as minimal Psychic Trauma as possible.

Thank you for watching this. I loved it.

Best sci-fi action film EVER! Now stop there, no need to watch any more, the Alien series ends here.

Ripley’s elbow doesn’t have to be strong enough to support the weight of the alien queen, it just has to be stronger than her shoelaces.

40:53 that's the best "Oh Sh!t" I've ever heard!🤣

love this film

Bill Paxton has the honor of being the only actor to have been killed by sci-fi's most famous predatory creatures:a Predator, a xenomorph, and a Terminator.

The ONLY movie were the sequal is waaay better then the original 😊… one of my favorites of all time…!

You look like a hero, man. This is good, we will need someone to stay behind while the rest of us escape.

In the extended cut you see that she had a daughter that had aged and died while she was lost in space for those 57 years.

9:45 - Kylie Reese right there 👑

53:44 - if she squished the queen's head, acid would eat through ship's hull.

Aliens is arguably the greatest sequel and the greatest sci-fi ever made

I have found my KZfaq couple. ❤️ I haven’t been into movies lately but I decided to look up the color purple and saw you two. A blessing to my channel 🤌🏻 keep up the great work. I plan to watch them all 😅

This sequel is the best sequel ever made to any movie hands down, the special edition is the one to watch, it helps you understand Newts and Ripley's bond a little better. I always loved Sigourney as Ripley she kicked ass and got the job done.

Now this is how to make a film with a kick ass female characters! Ripley & Vasquez we’re tough as nails!! I f’n loved this movie. I watched this in the theater when I was 10 years old. I still love it just as much now as I did back then.

This is favorite aliens movie I'm so happy I got to see your reaction Guys, my favorite part is Ripley fighting the queen👽 did you guys know that the actress who plays newt she's a teacher in real life and hope you guys watch Predator movies to !!!

Amazing sequel. I love the inclusion and introduction of the Alien Queen who gave me nightmares. I still Hate Burke and wish we saw him die

Man, you guys seem so chill. This is such a great movie, I can't believe it's from freakin' -86. Loved your reaction, so... pleasant :) You guys have a merry christmas and a happy new year!

Nearly 40 years old! And still a benchmark on how to make a sequel.

Bruh, he talked over Vasquez's funniest line. "No, have joo?"

Always enjoy your videos guys. You would really enjoy the movie OPEN RANGE with Kevin Costner, and WITNESS with Harrison Ford. Keep up the great reactions!

And now, for the classic chess move. Queen takes Bishop!

Not only one of the best films ever made, also one of the best protagonist's ever as well. Hollywood can keep it's superheroes, give me Elen Rippley or Sarah Connor any day of the week.

Devin looks completely different without his facial hair. I'm shook.

Bishop is following his programming, he even refuses the pistol, realizing that the aliens are sententent beings. (Check out Asmov's Law of Robotics.) Ripley throwing down on the Queen Alien has to be the biggest bitch fight in cinimatic history!

I remember when I watched this movie for the first time I wanted Vasquez to survive because she was so badass

The alien queen is still to this day the largest rod puppet ever filmed

Compared to the first movie,this one was more of an action movie than a horror film to me. But it was definitely a great sequel. Great reaction guys keep up the great work and happy new year to you and yours ✌️ 💜 🙏.

"Aliens": Third Officer Ripley has been found and taken to Gateway station with a Xenomorph-size case of PTSD. What will The Suits of Weyland-Yutani make her blowing up the "Nostromo"? It looks like you're watching the theatrical version that I saw in 1979, which is fine. 8:05 Actor Jenette Goldstein was a body builder and showed up for her audition dressed like a Chicana, since she thought "Aliens" was about "illegal aliens.";) 8:20 I've read that Lance Henriksen was "doing the knife thing" between scenes and the director added it to underline Bishop's "Synthetic Person" strangeness. 9:41 The Colonial Marines are going on a Bug Hunt, but THEY are The Bugs! 11:06 Hicks and Apone see that Ripley isn't a "front office paper-pusher" like Burke, but a working class dog like themselves. 18:17 In 1979, I wondered how Ripley was able to "get close, quickly" to Rebecca, unlike the female Marines. A reviewer of the time said: "Sisterhood!" I bought the Special Edition Laserdisc(!) in 1990 and confirmed that Ripley had been a parent. 20:52 A leftover from the theatrical version of "Alien." 21:15 Disarming the troops, heading into a hot zone always bothered me. Check out the SE version, "Ripley and the soldiers" takes on more Pathos and weight. Look for the Assembly Cut of "Alien3," if you continue on Ripley's journey...

Literally one of my favorite movies of all time. New subscriber. yall watch the good stuff ;)

I have a constant internal debate wether or not this or Robocop is my favorite movie. Right now, it's Aliens. :)

Outstanding reaction, guys! I saw it while I was in the Army the day it opened. Unreal! It really is a fantastic film. Subbed for more.

This will be great 👊👍

It absolutely boggles belief that this is the FIRST time you have ever seen this movie, considering it's age and your age, you have never seen parts or bits of it? that's absolute madness.

I had to rewind so many times. He said I wonder if its cold in space>? ROFL what the hell.

I recommend watching the extended version. It adds some background info that adds more depth to the movie. Why they didn't leave it in for the theaters I'll never understand . . .

Great job, S and K. Your reactions are so much like mine when I watched this so many years ago. 😃 So much unlike modern movies. Ellen grew from a regular person, through adversity, into a badass hero instead of being born with all the skills, courage, knowledge of weapons decades ahead of her and, of course, invincibility.

The Queen shares some anatomy with termite queens. Most notably, physogastry. An extremely oversized abdomen as it matures into an immobile egg-laying machine. ...obviously the Alien has an advantage since it can apparently lose parts like that to go on homicidal revenge quests.

This was the beginning of the female action hero. Ripley was a bad ass and is for the next 2 movies.

This movie might be one of the best sequels ever made, with Terminator 2 and The Godfather 2, and Ripley's a bad bitch 🤣

4:43 "That's the government for you" But those are Weyland-Yutani employees, not government.

I'd like to know what aliens these Marines dealt with prior. They must have been fighting small bugs. I'm surprised Ripley didn't ask. If I had to serve with an artificial person/android I'd initially try as hard as possible to make it angry to ensure it could be trusted. Imagine the constant insults Marines would be hailing at it daily. Haha, I wonder if you could adjust its humor settings to deal with that. Ripley is one the absolute best characters, she always speaks common sense when it needs to be said and doesn't have some special superpower ability to survive, she just digs deep and overcomes.

Congratulations! Best and most real reaction I´ve ever seen on KZfaq on the greatest movie of all time. Keep it up my friends.

Earliest memory is seeing this flick. Might explain me being a bit of a xenophile. So pissed off as a kid when I found out I couldn't join the Marines to fight off alien dickheads n space p***y crabs...

I suggest watching SHE'S FUNNY THAT WAY

Boy She Was Into it !

My favourite film of the franchise

I liked your reaction very much!

I just had a thought a good couples reaction video is HBOs CHERNOBYL, 5 part mini series. Its historically accurate about the accident at the Nuclear Power plant in the Soviet Union.

'Absolutely Badass' Could've been the title of this sequel, as good as the original for me without being a clone. Up there with Godfather II for best sequel. More quotable lines than any movie that i can remember.

A masterpiece of a movie! (2023.09.29)

If she only didn't go back for Newt, there wouldn't have been the alien queen escaping and the aftermath of this movie and what happens in the next film wouldn't have happened.

Alien started the hole space/alien/sci-fi genre, by the great Ridley Scott, and one of the three most important sci-fi movies ever made. That, The Thing, and Bladerunner! James Cameron rules sequels! This and Terminator 2. He likes using actors over and over. Terminator, Bill Paxton first guy killed! Reuses Reese, Linda, lance hennrikson, Bill Paxton, the Hispanic chica, etc., In terminator, Terminator 2, True Lies, The Abyss, titanic, etc.

Excelent reaction guys. A hello from Brasil 🇧🇷🇧🇷

Aliens was dope, good job y'all
