Ripley is often held up as an example of a great hero but she was a terrified woman desperately reacting in fear to escape certain doom....AND THEN SHE WENT BACK FOR THE CAT. THAT was the moment she became the hero we love and respect.
I loved how they handled the concept of a feminine hero in the sequel.
Ripley is the hero, but there's also Vasquez - the badass marine. Vasquez is what so many people tried to do to make women heroic in action films.
She's just an action hero that happens to be a woman. And she's great. But her character isn't classically "feminine."
Meanwhile Ripley is all woman. Her iconic badass moment ("Get away from her you bitch!") is the action climax of the film, and its also when she's being her most feminine. Her heroism didn't carry an asterisk saying she's a badass despite her sex.
She's not sexy, not vulnerable, not emulating a stereotypical man's role in combat. She's all-woman and all-badass.
All I know is if my house were to ever catch fire, the first thing I'd be doing is busting a window and tossing my cats out of the house. Then maybe my stereo... time permitting.
Funnily enough I had a dream about a fallout nuclear holocaust. My first thought in the dream was saving the cats
I grabbed one cat while my partner tried to get the other. I left the doors open as I ran out so the dog could follow. Got those 2 in the truck, and ran back for my partner and final pet. We didn't have shirts, but we had our babies
My cat's name is bandit too :3
I spent half the movie worried she wouldn't go back for the cat.
As a person who doesn't want children. Watching Aliens, "why did she go back for the girl?"
To make sure the girl lives a long and happy life after the movie of course!
Kill the cat with fire, take home the xenomorph. Wait, no...
Weyland-Yutani, is that you?
went out with a girl once who dumped me over an off-hand comment about character motivation in Alien. Dodged a bullet there.
I knew I was going to like my husband when the first time I went to his place he had two little cats!
They also need some basic level empathy....a pretty high bar for some.
Or just narcissism.
Looks like the man dodged a bullet.
I once had an ex make me choose between my cats and her.
I also choose this guy's cats.
I'm so sorry you had to immediately break up 💔
Yeah it was a no-brainer. I chose the cats. For some reason she was surprised by that, but if you're jealous of my cats, we're not going to work out.

It’s a rookie mistake on your ex’s part, and you hate to see it.
