Thirty years ago today, James Cameron's ALIENS was released on July 18, 1986. To mark the 30th Anniversary of ALIENS , we thought it fitting to pick out some of the iconic scenes and dialogue from ALIENS (1986) starring Sigourney Weaver, Michael Biehn, Bill Paxton, Paul Reiser and Lance Hendrickson. There are many memorable moments from ALIENS, but this line by Ripley stands out when she takes on the Queen Alien in the human fork lift.
