Line 320:
* [[Nested Mouths]]: Probably the most iconic case.
* [[Never Trust a Trailer]]:
** The trailer of the first film has glimpses of Ash malfunctioning. Before [[The Reveal]], it looks as though he has a chestburster inside him. But since he's a robot, impregnating him would be impossible.
** The third film's very first trailer, promising "On Earth, everyone will hear you scream", suggested that the film would take place on earth.
*** The film went through eight or more screenplays during its early development stages (some of them, incidentally, were written by people who seem to have never watched the previous films). The trailer in question was made before the final script was even selected.
Line 332:
* [[Noodle Incident]]: The Arcturians that the marines talk about in the second film.
* [[No One Gets Left Behind]]: In ''Aliens'', after the Colonial Marines learn that some of the ones left behind in the escape are still alive, Vasquez says "Then we go back in there and get them. We don't leave our people behind."
* [[No OSHA Compliance]]: Downplayed example. For some reason, the ''Nostromo'', with a crew of seven, has a lifeboat with a capacity of only three. But it at least has a lifeboat to begin with.
* [[Nothing Is Scarier]]:
** The original ''Alien'' focuses on the ever-present lurking threat of the eggs, chestburster, and adult Alien rather than direct confrontations. The trailer for the film highlights the strategy, showing barely any of the Alien and focusing on a terrifying montage of people reacting to what could be after them.
