Best things in the Alien Franchise

The only two things that redeem Ressurection (It's agreed to be a shit movie):

This response:
"Hey, Ripley. I heard you, like, ran into these things before?"
"That's right."
"Wow, man. So, like, what did you do?"
"I died."

And this ONE SCENE:

This is the commentary version. Effectively, they wanted her to land the shot as part of the scene. She'd been coached before but only managed it 1 out of 6 times at best. Then they actually shoot the scene and she lands it on the first take.

This is perfect. Literally the best acting you can ever have because only two people in the room were acting. Ash was informed so he wouldn't be surprised, and Kane was informed so he could... you know... have a seizure. Nobody else knew about the chestbuster, and that was REAL blood they used. That's how you make a masterpeice.

Another interesting bit of trivia about that seen was that during the cutting and editing, the main producer walked outside to get into a red car, when he own a grey car, he was just that shook up by the scene.

As for resurrection, Call was a decent character, shame she was stuck in a terrible film.
