Yes. Mac was the first one to do so after Anytime killed Blain. Dutch him again twice, once with an arrow from an explosion and then again with a spear throw.

Not a great hit-miss ratio then?

Not really.

The Marines did well themselves, but only in the end. Most of the time it was them being owned like n00bs.

Yep. One or two rounds found it. To make that clear, there was a scene where the Predator dresses his wound and clamps it shut with his medical gear.

Yeah I think I remember a scene where Anna found some blood on a leaf or something too?

Yes, right after they mowed down half of Mexico.

Mhm.

Dutch sees it, too, hence the line: "If it bleeds, we can kill it"

Which is why I'd rather be on his team. I don't remember Apone saying something so blunt, yet intelligent.

P.S. He didn't see the blood. He was just responding to what Anna said.

I wouldn't unduly give Dutch credit for intelligence in that remark - it was an act of leadership more than anything.

As for comparing the badassery of the lines of Dutch's team to the badassery of the lines of Apone's squad, I think we know who wins out here. Dutch had some good (and really bad ones), but Apone's squad was full of incredible quips and one-liners.  ;D

"Nobody touch nuthin!"

Double negatives aside - couldn't be more blunt or intelligent.  ;D

I'd argue it's more even than anything else. It seems like most people quote Hudson, with a little bit of Hicks more than anyone else whereas people quote Dutch, Mac, Blain, Billy...hell, almost the entire squad. But in terms who was more influential in pop culture, I agree that Apone and his team take the cake.

"Hey Vasquez, have you ever been mistaken for a man?"
"No, have you?"

"I ain't got time to bleed!"
"You got time to duck?"

Colonial Marines. Actually, it's better if the Alien headbites ( you won't feel much ) you rather than to be skinned alive.

Predator beats out Aliens in the memorable dialogue department by a landslide. Between "I ain't got time to bleed", "if it bleeds, we can kill it", "GET TO DA CHOPPAAAA" and "you're one ugly motherf**ker", Aliens has no chance.
