Why did they say "Another Bug Hunt"
It never made sense. Are there other aliens out there or is it military terminology I'm not familiar with?
Remember that scene? Back on the Sulaco on the briefing.
This bogles my mind till today.
Can somebody please explain?
>>69168617
they reference coming into contact and even fucking extra terrestrial life in that scene.
>>69168617
Maybe they encountered hostile local lifeforms on other colony world's
>>69168617
I always assumed they used the term "just another bug hunt" the same way we say wild goose chase.
They're used to settling disputes on colonies but every now and then someone thinks they've found an alien and they're sent to investigate. But they've never actually found anything before.

Maybe that can shed some light on the issue. It's a huge issue, since they take with them "Ripley" as a consultant.
What do you think fampai?

How "canon" is the Alien universe canon? That could easily be explained away as Arcturia being colony somewhere and Arcturians just being the colonists.
>>69168863
it's just one throwaway line to signify that that they have come in contact with alien life before

They've obviously encountered alien life on other planets that they called "bugs" and they thought of them as pushovers, so they underestimated Xenomorphs. It's probably at least partly a reference to Starship Troopers.
>>69168617
Nobody could answer this in a good manor yet. Wondering this myself.
>muh other alyums on other planets
Never even mentioned that they'd refer to them as bugs.

Yeah, I always just took it as they killed local wildlife or settle disputes so they're pretty overkill for most jobs which is why they didn't have a backup plan.

Everything does not need to be spelled out.
>>69170049
Did the book ever use the term "bug hunt" though? I can't remember. The bugs in the book have nothing to do with the ones in the movie, the term "bug" was intended to be an insult like calling humans "monkeys", IIRC.
