15. It Shares The Same Universe As Tim Burtons Batman
Whilst this is an exaggeration, there is an aesthetic DNA shared between Aliens and Batman, which was released three years after Aliens.
Cameron filmed the hive sequences in an abandoned power station called Acton Lane in North West London, which possessed the atmosphere and menace that suited the film.
