WEYLAND-YUTANI REMINDER

“Crew expendable. The organism is priceless.”

If you want, I can also make one more version that is absurdly funny:

“Colonial Marines Operational Weekend Briefing.”

It reads like a military op order where the movies are combat training exercises, and it’s honestly the funniest format of the three.
