Quotes

Alien Resurrection

Edit
  • Johner: Hey, Ripley. I heard you, like, ran into these things before?
  • Ripley: That's right.
  • Johner: Wow, man. So, like, what did you do?
  • Ripley: I died.
  • Call: Father's dead, asshole. Intruder on level one. All aliens, please proceed to level one.
  • [first lines]
  • Ripley: [voiceover] My mommy always said there were no monsters. No real ones. But there are.
  • Johner: You can't fly one of these things too, can you?
  • Ripley: Are you kidding? This piece of shit is even older than I am.
  • Distephano: I thought you were dead.
  • Ripley: Yeah, I get that a lot.
  • General Perez: Ellen Ripley died trying to wipe this species out. For all intents and purposes, she succeeded!
  • Purvis: [shouting] What's in-fucking-side me?
  • Dr. Wren: A parasite! A foreign element.
  • Ripley: There's a monster in your chest. These guys hijacked your ship, and they sold your cryo tube to this... human. And he put an alien inside of you. It's a really nasty one. And in a few hours it's gonna burst through your ribcage, and you're gonna die. Any questions?
  • Purvis: Who are you?
  • Ripley: [smiles] I'm the monster's mother.
  • Ripley: [discovering that Call is an android] I should have known. No human being is that humane.
  • Johner: Earth, man. What a shithole.
  • [last lines]
  • Call: [about Earth] It's beautiful.
  • Ripley: Yeah.
  • Call: I didn't expect it to be. What happens now?
  • Ripley: I don't know. I'm a stranger here myself.
  • Vriess: [Strapped to Christie's back, about to traverse the flooded kitchen] Hey Christie, do me a favour. When we hit the surface on the other side, no backstroke, okay!
  • [General Perez offers Elgyn a drink]
  • General Perez: Drink, Elgyn?
  • Elgyn: Constantly.
  • Ripley: Who do I have to fuck to get off this boat?
  • Johner: I can get you off. Maybe not the boat.
  • Ripley: Why do you care what happens to them?
  • Call: Because I'm programmed to.
  • Ripley: You're programmed to be an asshole? You're the new asshole model they're putting out?
  • [when the Alien "baby" emerges from the Queen's womb]
  • Dr. Gediman: You are... a beautiful, beautiful, butterfly.
  • Johner: Don't push me, little Call. You hang with us for a while, you'll find out I am not the man with whom to fuck!
  • [a soldier prods Johner in the back with a rifle. Johner spins and snatches it away in an eyeblink]
  • Johner: Don't ever touch me!
  • [returns it just as fast]
  • Johner: Ever!
  • [when the Betty hits Earth's atmosphere]
  • Johner: What's burning?
  • Vriess: Us!
  • Johner: Shit! You're right!
  • Call: Jesus Christ, Johner, what do you put in this shit? Battery acid?
  • Johner: Just for color.
  • Call: He is breeding an alien species. More than dangerous. If those things get loose, it's gonna make the Lacerta Plague look like a fucking square dance!
  • Purvis: God, I'm so tired.
  • Johner: Sleep when you die, man.
  • Dr. Gediman: [after watching the massacre in the mess hall] Security! There is a serious problem in the mess hall!
  • Ripley: Well, are you gonna kill me or what?
  • Call: There's no point, is there? They've taken it out of you. Where is it? Is it on the ship?
  • Ripley: You mean my - baby?
  • Johner: I'm not the mechanic here, Ironsides! I mostly just hurt people!
  • Ripley: Does it grow?
  • Dr. Gediman: Yeah. Very rapidly.
  • Ripley: It's a queen.
  • Dr. Gediman: How did you know that?
  • Ripley: She'll breed. You'll die. Everyone in the company will die.
  • Johner: Well, I say if we wanna make any decent time, I say we ditch the cripple.
  • [to Vriess]
  • Johner: No offense, man.
  • Vriess: [giving him the finger] None taken!
  • Johner: Hey, Vriess, you got a socket wrench? Maybe she just needs an oil change. Can't believe I almost fucked it.
  • Vriess: Yeah, like you never fucked a robot.
  • Dr. Wren: I think you will find that, uh, things have changed a great deal since your time.
  • Ripley: I doubt that.
  • [the Newborn Alien slowly dies by being sucked out of the Betty and into space]
  • Ripley: [tearfully] I'm sorry.
  • Dr. Wren: Distephano, take the weapons.
  • Distephano: Begging your pardon, sir, but FUCK YOU!
  • Call: Who are you?
  • Ripley: Who am I?
  • Call: You're a thing, a construct. They grew you in a fuckin' lab. And now they've brought it out of you.
  • Ripley: Not all the way out. I can feel it. Behind my eyes. I can hear it moving.
  • Elgyn: Hey, son, I'll give ya my authorization code. It's E-A, T-M, E.
  • Dr. Gediman: In the... In the Company?
  • Dr. Wren: Weyland-Yutani, Ripley's former employer. Terran growth conglomerate. They had defense contracts with the military. Oh they went under decades ago Gediman, way before your time. Bought out by Walmart. Fortunes of war.
  • Elgyn: [about Call] She is severely fuckable, ain't she?
  • Johner: [to Call] Kill you! Does that compute?
  • Call: [about leaving Ripley, who has just been sucked into the alien lair, behind] It's not right!
  • Purvis: I've been saying that all day.
  • Dr. Wren: Then this little synthetic bitch is gonna plug into the Auriga, and she is gonna take us right back to home base, according to the standard emergency procedures.
  • Call: No, she's not!
  • Distephano: Are you crazy? You still wanna bring those things back to Earth?
  • Johner: Haven't you been payin' attention today?
  • Dr. Wren: Ah, the intellectual speaks.
  • Johner: I thought synthetics were supposed to be all logical and shit. You're just a big ol' psycho girl!
  • Johner: [to Ripley] If you don't want to play basketball, I know some other indoor sports.
  • Johner: What's the big deal, man? Fuckin' waste of ammo.
  • Christie: Let's go.
  • Johner: Must be a chick thing.
  • Dr. Wren: And the animal itself - wondrous! The potential? Unbelievable once we've tamed them.
  • Ripley: [laughs sarcastically] Roll over, play dead, heel. You can't teach it tricks.
  • Dr. Wren: Why not? We're teaching *you*.
  • Johner: Right, you're the "new model" droid. You can access the mainframe by remote.
  • Call: No, I can't. I burned my modem. We all did.
  • Ripley: You did it. You saved the Earth.
  • Dr. Wren: We're not flying blind here, you know. This is United Systems military, not some - greedy corporation.
  • Ripley: Oh. Well, it won't make any difference. You're still gonna die.
  • Dr. Wren: How do you feel about that? I wish you could understand what we're trying to do here. The potential for the species goes way beyond urban pacification. New alloys, new *vaccines*. There's nothing like this we've ever seen on any world before . You should be very proud.
  • Ripley: Oh, I am.
  • General Perez: Bottom line is: if she looks at me funny one time, I'm putting her down. Okay? As far as I'm concerned, Number 8 is a meat - byproduct.
  • Dr. Wren: I think you will find that things have changed a great deal since your time.
  • Ripley: I doubt that.
  • Ripley: How did you...
  • Dr. Gediman: Hard work. We used blood samples from Fiori 16, on ice, where you died. We've remade you. We cloned you.
  • General Perez: It has memories! Why does *it* have memories?
  • Call: I don't get it. If they took it out, why are they keeping you alive?
  • Ripley: Well, they're curious. I'm the latest thing.
  • Elgyn: I'm gonna take a wild guess here, General, but I'm thinkin' whatever you got goin' on here it- ain't exactly approved by Congress?
