Movie trivia for fun

Ok, here is a trick question for you. Think hard...


Trivia value: 25 points

In the movie "Aliens", how many marines survived the initial battle with the Aliens inside the reactors cooling tower?

You need to list either the characters or a good description of them.

Good luck.

I think it is 7 if that was before the drop-ship crew was killed. If it after the drop-ship has crashed I think it is 5.

None right so far. It is before the drop ship went down Andy.

This is when they are still in the ATV talking about what to do and eventually they decide to take off and nuke the place from orbit.

I guess I lost track of the question. The number of Marines that were left was 6.
Gorman, Hicks, Hudson, Vasquez & the two from the drop-ship.

Your getting very close but no cigar yet.

You got 6 of the marines and the 3 civies. That however, does not answer the question.

Here is the final hint. There were 8 marines still alive at that point.

Ripley's not a marine. So you only have 7.

I think I finally got you guys. ;-)

Yes it was:
1.Gorman
2.Hicks
3.Hudson
4.Vasquez
5.Spunkmeyer (in drop ship)
6.Ferro (in drop ship)
7.Apone (Sarge) captured, not dead
8.Drake, also captured not dead.

Not 100% sure on Drake, but I know there was 2 and I know it was Sarge. Pretty sure it was Drake, but it might have been Dietrich.

I would have taken either.

And it led to the famous lines:
"Then we go back in there and get them."
"I'm not sure if you've been keeping up with current events but we just got our asses kicked."

Have a great day guys.
