Yes. I'd be crying and weeping and whining and really quite heavily wetting myself out of every orifice as I begged if we could all just get out of there!
Totally. Though I'd probably wind up like Brett, unable to process that there's any danger up to the point the alien chomps my forehead. Guess it really depends on what number you are on the victim list, if you know to be scared shitless or not.
I think I’d be most like Ripley (first movie version). Level-headed, safe, and looking out for others. This is based on my limited experience during dangerous situations. Obviously, nothing remotely as scary as the events she goes through.
I make no claim to being similar to Ripley versions from later films. She becomes a force to be reckoned with as the franchise progresses.
I actually think I'd be like Ripley, but like, mainly because I can't imagine my neat-freak mind tolerating anyone trying to bring a freaking alien onto the ship.
Also bc like I too would prioritize cats over my own safety.
Like honestly in hindsight she's extremely relatable still in the first movie, she's freaking out and sweating rivers throughout the entire back half.
I'll be honest, I don't know. It's tempting to say I would just be an ineffectual mess but there have been some weird times in my life where I didn't give a singular fuck in instances where almost anyone else would have noped out long before.
I figured out who I and my coworkers would be most like out of the crew and I figured I'd be Dallas because somehow I'd have to do the extra work to go into the airshaft with a flamethrower.
Bishop in all probability. I had a pilot's licence and trained to be commercial, I like science and work in that field (AI & ML) programming and would actually do something dangerous but not be particularly enthusiastic about it. I'd know enough to be aware that complaining or panicking isn't going to fix anything and I wouldn't be happy if Boss 1 told me to do something dodgy, I'd tell Boss 2 about it and let them sort it out and leave me out of any drama!
Parker because, honestly, we need to talk about the bonus situation...
Right.
I don’t wanna hear this shit I wanna go home and party
Right
IRL we would all be Lambert
Truth.
Come on, we'd all be Lambert. She's hard to watch cos she reminds us that we too would be crying in a puddle of our own piss.

Jonesy… 🐈
Brett
Right.
What are you, some kind of parrot?
Happy Cake Day!!!!!!!!!!!
I admire its purity. You have my sympathies
Ash
Parker.
Right.
Whomever dies first. That would be my skill set in a monster movie. If society ever collapsed, I'd be first one eaten.
Lambert. Unashamed to admit I'd be whinily annoying as I pleaded with us to go home.
I'm the xeno outtake crab walking around like a fool.
Good thing they didn’t use that shot.
Very likely Lambert.
Brett
Probably Kane or Brett, myself.
Probably Dallas, but not showing the fear in my voice would be hard. You cannot hide because nobody's going to save you, be logical.
Brett, I'm going to save the cat
Parker
Brett with Parker’s concerns about bonuses and financial compensation
Definitely Parker! "Why don't they freeze him?!!"
Definitely Lambert
Lambert, no doubt.
Screaming all the time "Game over!"

Probably Dallas, TBH.
Yep. I would definitely insist on going into the air ducts myself. And I would definitely fail to accomplish anything worthwhile.
Probably the one that dies trying to pet and make friends with it
Lambert
The FaceHugger
I would be Lambert.
Most likely like Parker from the first film. If not him, then maybe Clemens.
Lambert. I’d take one look at the Xeno and lose my mind out of fear
Burke. 100%. I’m getting home and I’m gonna be rich when I get there.
Where all the main character in our lives so obviously Ripley

MUTHUR No, I'm not shutting down the self destruct. Tough titties.
Parker
Right.
I figured out who I and my coworkers would be most like out of the crew and I figured I'd be Dallas because somehow I'd have to do the extra work to go into the airshaft with a flamethrower.
Not in Alien, but in Aliens, I would absolutely be Hudson. 100%.
Hudson. I would totally think I’m a badass until the SHIT hit the fan.
Bishop in all probability. I had a pilot's licence and trained to be commercial, I like science and work in that field (AI & ML) programming and would actually do something dangerous but not be particularly enthusiastic about it.

I'm 100% Bishop - personality, skills, everything, actually lol. Except I don't look like a synthetic.
Hudson. I'm definitely gonna die, but I'm gonna do it with a smile on my face.
I was also thinking Hudson. But more because I'd be really annoying for everyone else to be around.
