Ahhh! AHHHH!! Insane! Insane, I tell you! I don't need to listen to you, Mr. Burns, because I'm Homer Simpson! I don't need to work, because I'm Homer Simpson! I think I'm going to go home to my mansion and eat my lobsters, because I'm Homer Simpson! What's this? "Highly electrical outlet"? Well, I don't need to wear safety gloves, because I'm Homer-

The movie that even David Fincher is ashamed of. Follows the exploits as she crash-lands on the penal colony Fiorina 'Fury' 161, and must do battle once again with an alien creature that stowed away aboard her ship. Should be ignored at all costs.
last lines of the movie
Ripley: voice rising over static ... Ash, Captain Dallas. Cargo and ship destroyed. I should reach the frontier in about six weeks. With a little luck, the network will pick me up. This is Ripley, last survivor of the Nostromo, signing off.

The name of a popular television program on the ABC channel in early 2005. Follows a group of people who survived a plane crash while flying on an Oceanic Airlines flight from Sydney, Australia to Los Angeles. They try to survive on the island and encounter lots of odd things, including an invisible monster that may be able to communicate with the survivors, polar bears, a crazy woman who was part of a resarch team that was slaughtered on the island, a mysterious "black rock", strange voices, and more. The survivors also have to deal with problems faced within their camp, including the well-being of a woman who is pregnant, the hidden motives of a man named John Locke, and the communication barrer that exists between the survivors and a Korean couple who can't speak English. The show currently airs Wednesday at 9:00 EST on the ABC network.
John Locke: "You see this little hole? This moth's just about to emerge. It's in there right now, sturggling. It's digging it's way through the thick hide of the cocoon. Now, I could help it - take my knife, gently widen the opening, and the moth would be free - but it would be too weak to survive. Struggle is nature's way of strengthening it."

Was kidnapped by the aliens while escaping from Hadley's Hope and was almost impregnated with an alien embryo, but was saved by Ripley. Newt died when, coming back to Earth, her cryotube was flooded with water after the ship they had been travelling on was attacked by an alien and they were forced into escape pods that jettisoned to an isolated planet. However, she still survives in (the clone version of) Ellen Ripley's memories.

A character on the UPN series "Star Trek: Enterprise". Charles 'Trip' Tucker was the chief engineer on the Starfleet vessel Enterprise NX-01, and was also (for a brief period of time) the chief engineer on the second-generation NX-02 starship, Columbia. Has been good friends with Captain Jonathan Archer for over 20 years. Enjoys working with machines, playing the harmonica, and old horror movies. Lost his sister, Elizabeth Tucker, when Earth was attacked by an alien probe that decimated the state of Florida. Trip was also involved in a relationship for the Vulcan T'Pol for four years. Trip Tucker died when he sacrificed himself to save the life of his captain by blowing up himself and a group of hostile aliens.
(writing a letter to a female crewmen's parents about her death) "Computer, begin recording. Dear Mr. and Mrs. Taylor, by the time you get this, Starfleet will have already told you about Jane. Since I worked so closely with her, I wanted to add my personal condolences. I have to admit, I've been putting off writing this for a while. I convinced myself that my duties on Enterprise took precedence. But the truth is I didn't want to face the fact that someone so young with so much promise could just be gone. But I'm facing it now. And I find myself thinking how important she was to me. She was a great engineer. And she was my friend. She won't be forgotten."
