This accidentally misquoted Alien tagline had people rewriting others (plus some famous quotes) – 17 five star favourites
The seventh film in the Alien franchise – Alien: Romulus – is about to hit UK cinemas, and it’s been getting some love from the production company, 20th Century Studios.
Unfortunately, it hasn’t been getting quite enough love for the social media team to google the famous Alien tagline –
‘In space, no-one can hear you scream.’
Berry – @BereniceHealey – spotted the problem.

It's one of the most iconic lines in film. It's right up there with Indiana Jones's "You should take that artifact to where it belongs, which is a museum!"
