All this Alien talk is interesting and an extended cut would be great. Anyone know of a site to look at known and unknown missing scenes?

The scene takes place after Ripley cleans Newt’s face. Hudson is sitting in the Operations with other marines looking at the blueprints table. Gorman comes from behind and Hudson greets him with these words. H: „Smoking or non-smoking?“ G: „Just tell me what you are scanning for.“ Burke: „PDTs, Personal data transmitters. Every colonist had one surgically implanted.“
After your explanation it sounds like another Hudson’s joke. He asks him gently to choose a seat in this great restaurant, full of good food, drinks and friendly atmosphere, while they are in this cold end of Universe. It is sarcastic, right?
Two scenes later Hudson finds the PDTs on the screen and he announces this discovery to the others with „Stop your grinnin‘ and drop your linen. Found them.“ I know I am a bit boring and this question does not belong here, but maybe you can explain this sentence (verse) to me too? I promise it is my last question of this kind here!

The unknown missing scenes for Alien: As far as I know, there are none scenes available other than these included in AQ and AL. The scenes from AL and from the LD archive on disc AQ 9 should be the same. I guess that AL ones are better mastered, but maybe I am wrong in this. There are also few shots all over the main documentary on disc AQ 2, probably useless. (And then there are the 100 boxes of unused material found by Scott’s team in UK in 2003 – lucky guys!)
For Aliens: Just the short scene with Newt and Hicks I described a page before, disc AQ 4.
For Alien 3: Few shots in Alien 3 Workprint did not find their way into Lauzirika’s restored maxiversion of this movie. If you do not have the workprint, Alien Legend site has a big archive of scenes from this version at http://www.planetavp.com/al/index2.htm The deleted scenes section was not updated when AQ came out, so have this in your mind while reading it.
For A4: Probably none.
