<div style='font: 11pt arial; text-align: left; '>These questions will be taken from the first and second films (Alien and Aliens). I don't know enough stuff about Alien3 to include it, and no one really cares about Resurrection anyway. I hope you bastards have studied up cause I'm not going easy on you:

1.) What is the name of the crew's ship in the first film?

2.) What is the name of the marine's ship in the second film (the one in space that contains the Dropship)?

3.) What is the "politically correct" term for an android in the Aliens universe?

4.) The alien creatures are inhabiting the same planet in both films. What is this planet called?

5.) Why does the crew investigate this planet in the first film?

6.) Why do the marines investigate it in the second film?

7.) What is the name of the crew member who becomes a host for the facehugger in the first film?

8.) Why does Ash not want to let the team back inside the ship after this occurs?

9.) Eight marines (including the two pilots of the Dropship) are killed/taken during the alien's first attack in the second film. Name one of them (1 Bonus point each for every one you name after the first).

10.) How do the motion detectors in the first film work?

11.) Who built them?

12.) What is the name of Ripley's cat?

13.) The alien creatures possess a concentrated acid that flows from their bodies when wounded. Whether this is their actual blood or not is somewhat ambiguous, but my question is this - what does Ash call this type of acid and what special property makes it interesting?

14.) In the second film Lt. Gorman names the alien creatures. What does he call them?

15.) How does Ripley find Newt when she's taken by the aliens in the second film?

16.) Name the artist who designed the aliens for the film and another film he's done creature designs for.

17.) What is the name of the ship's computer in the first film?

18.) In the second film, what are Vasquez's last words?

19.) What is Ripley's first name?</div>
