ALIENS: Goofs

Audio/visual unsynchronised: Obvious looped background conversation noise during the breakfast scene.

Crew or equipment visible: Foot visible when Frost falls down the shaft.

Continuity: The marines can stand up straight inside the APC, yet are taller than it when outside.

Continuity: Ripley's headset around the time she tells Gorman "they're cut off."

Continuity: The APC window becomes unshattered.

Continuity: When Ripley tries to break the glass in the med lab there is a scuff mark on the glass before her first swing. After this finishes, the mark disappears and we see Ripley actually making the mark with her second swing.

Continuity: The yellow caution light on the loader when the mother alien pulls it into the airlock.

Continuity: When Ripley retrieves some weapons to rescue Newt, he picks up one weapon from the rack, puts a different one down on the floor, picks up the second weapon from the rack, and puts the first one down on the floor. This is fixed in the special edition.

Crew or equipment visible: Bishop's body as he stops Newt being sucked out of the airlock.

Audio/visual unsynchronised: When Ripley meets the queen, there is a scene where the breathing sound and the steam coming out of the queen's mouth are out of sync.

Continuity: When the marines exit the APC and enter the alien hive, they go down several flights of stairs. Yet, when Ripley drives the APC into the alien hive to rescue them, she stays on the same level.

Incorrectly regarded as goofs: When Vasquez says to Ripley 'I only need to know one thing, where they are!' you can see Hicks in the background moving his mouth in time to what she says. This could well be because his character has heard her say it a million times before; his reactions also imply this.

Continuity: During the inquest, Van Leuwen refers to Ripley's company ID number as NOC14472 while the data screen in the background displays NOC14672.
