20 Alien Easter Eggs You Never Noticed

By Jack Pooley /

7. People Magazine Mock-Up, Starring Michael Weyland - Aliens

After slimeball lawyer Carter Burke (Paul Reiser) and Lt. Gorman (William Hope) talk to Ridley about the catastrophe on LV-426 and she refuses to return there, if you look on her breakfast table you can see a People magazine. It's not so implausible to believe that the famous publication might still be kicking around in about another 150 years, is it? Look closer, however, and you'll notice what appears to be a familiar face on the cover: Bishop himself, or more likely, Michael Weyland, on whom Bishop's appearance was modeled, and who would appear in Alien 3. It's blink-and-you'll-miss-it, but it's in there.
