@ SM:
Fine...
Marines would listen to Burke because he comes with the same thing he comes to Ripley later in the film with. He tells them they will be rich and most military enlisted personnel have pretty low salaries in comparement to the officer staff, so money would definetely work as a lure since human civilization has proven that humans do intend to get greedy. He also claims that they will be heroes, back on Earth, that thanks to these species they will help find cure for cancer and all possible things. He ensures them no one would get hurt, since they will only transport the egg and nothing else (and that is eventually the only thing they do).
Concerning #5... I could literally write a post describing their
every, every breath, every breath they take during the egg-stealing. But that would be like an entire chapter of a book and I am just too lazy to describe everything. Think of it like a very skilled sniper. How do you logically explain that he manages to hit all the targets. You can start off describing his mental state, his childhood, then we can move on to technical issues like the wind speed, the angle of the rifle, etc.. But thats just too time consuming, especially when you
know that the side you are arguing with is aware of the existing logic behind the argument. Explaining would simply be... meaningless.
How can I possibly provide evidence for something that is
not in the film? Because that is what you are asking me to do. To proof existence of something that does not exist. Its like saying "Voldemort does not exist unless you can proof it". How am I suppose to show you logic to define pure imagination? That is philosophy and people have been trying to do that for centuries so dont expect me to answer that question.
And that is what makes this explanation logical to me. It does not hang nor depend on any other logic shown by the film, whilst explanation with Queen does.

I do not even know if they have ice on Sulaco
. As I said, this theory is a very long way from foolproof. If you have a creative mind, feel free to fill up the missing parts
