Line 90:
* [[Book Ends]]: Both ''Alien'' and ''Aliens'' start and end with a spaceship silently drifting into space, with the crew in artificial sleep (with the added bonus of mirroring each others: at the beginning of the first movie the crew is composed of several person, at the end of Ripley alone, it's the opposite in the second movie). ''Alien 3'' starts with a similar scene, but ends with a recording of Ripley's last spoken sentences in the first movie.
* [[Broken Bird]]: Ripley at the start of ''Aliens'', recovers in that film {{spoiler|until ''Alien 3'', she gets worse}}. And... {{spoiler|And Newt a.k.a. Billie is one in the Dark Horse comic series}}.
* [[Bug-Out]]: "Marines, we are leaving!" after the first probe into the reactor plant building in ''Aliens''.
* [[Bug War]]: A small scale version. The first and third films center on a group of human noncombatants against a single alien, while the second and fourth films feature groups of armed people against a horde of Aliens. The ''[[Alien vs. Predator]]'' series features a full scale battle between the species in the second movie. The "war" part didn't happened until ''Aliens vs Predator: Requiem''.
* [[Came Back Wrong]]: Ripley in ''Alien Resurrection''. {{spoiler|Several times, as it turns out}}.
