...Not as easy as you might think. Star of the ''[[Alien (Filmfranchise)|Alien]]'' movies (at least the first four, of which two were undiluted awesome, one that [[Fanon Discontinuity|we don't speak of]], and one that was flawed but nonetheless pretty good), making her one of a few actresses (and inarguably the first) who is believable in a heavy action role. She even got nominated for an Oscar for Best Actress for the second movie, ''Aliens''. Yes a sci-fi/action/horror film, something that then and now is practically unheard of.

Poster ''lady'' of awesome, yet occasionally terrifying, [[Grandma, What Massive Hotness You Have!|grace and beauty]] (you know, the kind who can still be put in a [[Fan Service]] shot ''[[Avatar (Filmfilm)|when she's 60]]''). Got to be a [https://web.archive.org/web/20131203205122/http://www.digitalmonkeybox.com/galaxy_quest.htm really hot] [https://web.archive.org/web/20131029155834/http://www.imdb.com/media/rm704813056/ch0008365 babe] in ''[[Galaxy Quest (Film)|Galaxy Quest]]'' and ''Heartbreakers'' (where, at age 51, she gave co-star [[Jennifer Love Hewitt]] a run for her money).

Also played Dana Barrett in ''[[Ghostbusters]]'' and its sequel, anthropologist Dian Fossey in the film adaptation of Fossey's book ''[[Gorillas in The Mist]]'' (for which she got another Best Actress nomination; she also got a Best Supporting Actress nomination the same year for ''Working Girl''), and Grace Augustine in ''[[Avatar (film)|Avatar]]''. {{spoiler|And the Director in ''[[The Cabin in The Woods (Film)|The Cabin in Thethe Woods]]''.}}
