Dead Meat: Into Battle choice....

My Vote is Dillon because he is loyal to a fault, uncompromising and merciless, but has compassion. He will never quit or let down those he calls family. to the end. 

IRAPTUS - My vote is for Hicks and Hudson! The reasoning behind this decision is simple: Hicks is an amazingly good-looking gentleman - and he knows how to teach a lady a thing or two about firearms. ;)

That is great Something Real.

INGENIERO - Indeed! :)

Oh, gosh! Please forgive my duplicate post! :(

Hicks & (Hudson) for me is a first pick. Tough choice. The reason why is they were professional soldiers with really great weaponry.

Dillon & (Morse) is great to argue for first because Dillon gave the greatest speech in righteous anger in the cafeteria and most likely would have talked me into following him after that.

Really great topic IRaptus.

Something Real remember you are Hudson though ;)

IRAPTUS - Oh, bloody oath! I forgot that part! Can I PLEASE be Ripley instead? Pretty please? :)

Ingeniero thank you kindly.

lol yes Dillon's speech would psyche up anyone into following him

Something Real Alright, just for you lol

I deliberately left Ripley out as a leader to follow in the interest of debate and fun. We'd likely all pick her if she was a choice lol

IRAPTUS - Thank you! Do not worry - Hicks can have the lead with me any time! :)

Hmm.....I agree with Dillon- he had nothing to lose and had an interesting ethical code and leadership style when it mattered although Daniels was pretty bad ass too.

dk Dillon was a tank. Powerhouse brute-force brawler. Never a backwards step. If he had some decent hardware besides a fire-ax he would've been hard to stop I imagine.

Sadly we didn't get to see enough of Janek in action, he would've been a close second. 

It'll be interesting to see Daniels develop (providing she isn't cast off like Shaw) in the next film. She has some fire about her, and nothing to lose now 

Great topic IRaptus !

Well, my first instinct is to choose Tennessee, because he actually survives. ...At least...until the end of the movie. With David in control of things, his fate is a little up in the air. But, his spouse dies, so that's gonna have to be a no-go for me.

I could probably pretty seamlessly replace Hudson because if I were in a situation like that IRL, I'd be panicking the entire time exactly like him. Plus, I get to meet Bishop, and that's cool. So, yeah, I'll be Hudson.

I am going to go a little wild and choose Johner and Kristie! Kristie is badass as a second or third in command, but takes control of situations well while still playing nice with others! Plus, he seems pretty damn loyal.

Johner is a DICK... But he is a certified badass who isn't really afraid to actually take anything on. He voices plenty of concern, but he will still fight. 

Not sure who the sidekick is in this scenario... Kristie since he is listed second? I think of him as the leader in that pair, so I am making an executive decision and will make my myself Johner, the wingman!

VivisectedEngineer solid!! You know Hicks will always have your back. His quiet confidence and level-head would keep you calm and re-assured during a firefight. A true leader to follow to hell and back.

cuponator3000 great choice! Both of them are bad-ass and good in a firefight. Fearless and barn-storming you know they have the balls to waltz on into a xeno alive and make it back out alive again. They both showed tactical awareness and adaptability  

Daniels & (Tee) Simply because Daniels is a badass and there's nothing like watching the back of a beautiful woman ;)

Hive?Forget 1,6,7.Different universe.

Xenomorphs are not insects

Walter, they are better than just insects, but even Ridley compares them to cockroaches. It was on the A:C commentary. I think it was when he mentioned the Xeno could regrow limbs and what not. He referenced cockroaches because they can, like, live without heads and survive nuclear blasts and what not. I think he also compared their aesthetic to a cockraoch a little bit (he said big, beautiful cockroaches I think. Not sure.)

I know what you meant, but the insect comparison will always be relevant, I tihnk. 

Back to the topic though. Lawrence of Arabia, I was going to choose them, but I didn't want to pick the newest pair lol. A good choice either way!

cuponator3000 I commend your decision to go with the Resurrection crew :) They're not a bad choice imo as they are hardened mercenaries with a variety of skills such Kristie's leadership and Revolver Ocelot-esque ricochet shots. I love the choices (except maybe Dallas and Kane lol) but Daniels is hot af and I'd prefer to partner with a badass like her :P
