This franchise in general provides examples of:    open/close all folders      Tropes A to G Action Girl: In the Dark Horse post- Aliens comic series, Newt becomes one hell of an action girl. Adaptation Expansion: The comic series branches off from the movies after Aliens, and benefits greatly as a result. A. I. Is a Crapshoot: Bishop in Aliens and Alien 3 averts this, explained as having stricter safeguards than the one that went against the crew in the first film.

But by Alien: Resurrection, androids have been outlawed with orders to . The alien in the first film moves around the spaceship using air vents. In the second film, Newt survives by hiding in the air vents, and the Marines make their escape through the same vents.

Newt uses them for more aggressive purposes in the Dark Horse adaptation. Alien Blood: The aliens have highly corrosive acid for blood. Alien Landmass: Planet LV- 4. Acheron) has rocky formations which are rounded at the top into smooth nubs. Offhand, the rocks greatly resemble bones. All Webbed Up: This happens to several victims throughout the series. The Xenomorphs use some kind of unexplained organic resin to cocoon people, leaving them as bait for facehugger eggs.

Always Chaotic Evil: The Aliens. They seemingly exist for the sole purpose of killing everything on a planet. It is subtly implied that they are indeed intelligent, not just bestial animals, which simply makes them even more terrifying. They can't help killing everything in sight that isn't them, it's what they're for. Ambiguous Robots: This series has a whole spectrum of them. Tending toward the organic end, we have the Xenomorphs and on the probably- robotic end, we have the artificial persons.

Right square in the middle is the Space Jockey (and by extension, his ship) from the first movie. Ancient Conspiracy: Actually a set of company protocols, but it sure resembles a cult searching for an Artifact of Doom they think will bring them power. From the 2. 1st Century (possibly before) to the far future. Years, decades, centuries come and go and every time so much as a hint of a sign of a Xenomorph rears its head, they have a team ready to go, with moles, dupes and those they need for the moment all set to go.

And I Must Scream: In the comics, an adult Newt falls in love with a Colonial Marine, who turns out to be an Artificial Human with more advanced emotions. He makes a Heroic Sacrifice by staying behind on an infested ship to allow her to escape, but this leaves him trapped on a Ghost Ship (they leave him alone because he's useless to them for breeding) that can never return to civilization because of the risk. Appropriated Title: Although the third, fourth, and fifth films all went under the original title, most spin- off merchandise is known under Aliens, which was the second movie.

Artificial Human: Ash, Bishop and Call (a bit of franchise- wide Theme Naming which Prometheus appears to have continued with David). Ash from the first movie is a particularly sinister example, since he secretly protects the alien and betrays the other crew members.

Art Major Biology: The Alien's life cycle. The alien grows from a chestburster to a full- grown adult without apparently eating anything (or anyone) in the first film. This is explained in the original script when the crew corner the chestbuster in a supply closet filled with their food supply and lock it in while they try to find a way to deal with it. When they return it has escaped after eating their food and is next seen fully grown. Similarly, in the sequel the there are dozens of fully grown aliens (and a very fully grown queen) along with a giant organic maze in the terraforming facility, despite the fact that there are only some 1.

Bishop mentions that the colonists also had livestock, which could serve as hosts/food for the aliens. It's proposed in an in- universe anatomical/zoological report on the xenomorphs (in the Dark Horse comic series) that the reason for their blood being acidic is that it is in fact a living battery (which would kinda work, seeing as how they're silicon- based lifeforms), and that they get all the energy needed for their (individually) relatively short lifespans as an adult from this as well as from their host organism and thus do not actually need to feed, nor do they even have digestive systems.

This is similar to a lot of butterfly and moth species in real life (the thing with adults not eating.. Additionally, like bees, the Queens feed off of .

The Nostromo in the first film, for instance, clearly had this look before the wear and tear set in. The colony in the second film, meanwhile, has a facade of this look over a greasy industrial substructure. The contrast between this trope, Used Future, and unsettling organic structures is a recurring theme throughout the franchise. Attack Animal: Word of God states that the Xenomorphs are these.

Better to Die than Be Killed: Subverted in the Newt's Tale comic series. During the colonist's final stand against the xenomorphs, Newt's mother picks up a gun and looks at her children (intending to put them out of their misery before turning the gun on herself). She gets ready to pull the trigger..

Newt tells her there's another way, and leads them towards a ventilation grate during the attack. Not that it helps, considering that her mother and brother get ripped apart seconds later, forcing her to flee into the duct. Beware My Stinger Tail: Even if the . Nature even on Earth is not always cuddly and fluffy.

Broken Bird: Newt AKA Billie is one in the Dark Horse comic series. 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.
