Yes, Alien Day is in a couple of weeks, and to celebrate, we thought that now would be the perfect time to do a quiz. Nothing says Party Time quite like an in-depth analysis of your movie knowledge, right?

Indeed, much like our recent trivia quiz that centered on the original 1979 Rildey Scott classic, it’s now time to set our crosshairs on James Cameron’s beloved 1986 follow-up, Aliens. I mean, who doesn’t like Aliens?

Often referenced as a rare example of a sequel surpassing its cinematic original, Aliens successfully ran the gamut between balls-to-the-wall action and chest-bursting horror to such a satisfying degree that it helped cement the multi-media franchise into film fans’ collective hearts and minds. 

Furthermore, not only did Aliens do gangbusters at the box-office and win a ton of accolades at a time when sci-fi was often overlooked come awards season, but the movie also featured an iconically strong female role in Sigourney Weaver’s badass portrayal of Ellen Ripley.

On top of that, with Cold Iron Studios’ PvE co-op shooter Aliens: Fireteam just around the corner, we also thought that now would be a good time to brush up on your Xenomorph knowledge before taking the express elevator to hell when it officially drops later this year.

So, grab your smartguns, your pulse rifles and your motion trackers, and come join us as we venture back to LV-426 in Twinfinite’s latest Aliens trivia quiz. This time it’s war!
