If it were up to me, I'd probably lean towards keeping them, just because I like how the scenes with them build suspense, and suggest a much larger force of Aliens than we get to see on screen. Because at the most we see like 6 extras in alien suits, but as viewers we have to believe there are hundreds. But I don't like the inclusion of the Delerict Ship. It spoils too much, and the dialog at the colony is not very good. Plus I feel it is more interesting to let the viewers piece together what happened themselves, by watching the marines investigate the colony. By giving away exactly what happened, those scenes lose a lot of their suspense. They also added dialog later on in the movie, that spoils that we are going to see an Alien Queen. And I hate it.I do really like the scene where Ripley finds out her daughter has died of old age while she was away. It is well acted, and considering how the movie is about motherhood, it seems very important to me to include. It makes the bond between Ripley and Newt carry a lot more weight.There's also a scene with a cocooned Burk in the alien hive, which has not been included with any of the Special Editions to my knowledge. But now having seen it, the acting is not very good, so it got cut for a good reason. Sorry Paul Reiser. I thought I wanted to watch Burk die. But as it turns out, no I don't.</blockquote>
