Answer: Skynet

The software system known as Skynet was designed and built by Cyberdine Systems for the U.S military. Its original programming was designed to detect threats posed to the United States and implement defensive procedures. However, Skynet's programming evolved to the point that it became self aware. According to the information provided in the movie, Skynet became self aware on August 29th 1997 and, after the operators of the system tried to shut it down, Skynet determined that all humans posed a direct threat to its existence.

In the film, the four boys found a treasure map they believed would lead them to hidden treasure. The reason they were searching for the treasure was to save their parents homes from being repossessed. The character of Lawrence 'Chunk' Cohen was constantly being made fun of by his friends.

In the film 'Chunk' performed his trademark party piece, the truffle shuffle. Basically, he lifted up his shirt and gyrated vigorously, making his stomach wobble in an amusing fashion. Aside from tracking down the treasure of 'One-eyed' Willie; a pirate believed to have lived around their home town many hundreds of years ago, they had to also avoid being caught by the Fratelli family, who were hiding from the police because they had just robbed the local bank. 'Chunk' befriended one of the Fratelli brothers; 'Sloth', who was disfigured at birth and he was tormented constantly by his two brothers throughout the film.

In the end, with the assistance of 'Sloth', the boys found the treasure and aided in the capture of the Fratelli family.

The boys' homes were saved and everyone lived happily ever after. The film was directed by Richard Donner and co-written by Stephen Spielberg and Christopher Columbus.

Answer: Aliens

In the film "Aliens" (1986), the actors who played the part of the space marines were sent off to take part in intense marine style training. The other actors, including Sigourney Weaver were not asked to attend the training camp. The reason behind this, apparently, was to create real tension between the actors who were playing the marines and the other actors in the film. The idea being, that this would come across when watched by an audience.

The plot to "Aliens" involved a team of space marines, led by Sigourney Weaver's character, being sent back to the planet that she had just escaped from. Their mission was to find any survivors belonging to a colony which had being established on the planet. Ripley (Sigourney Weaver) advises that there is a very dangerous alien life form or life forms present on the planet, which wiped out her entire crew before she escaped. The "Company" that sent the rescue mission had an ulterior motive for sending Ripley and the marines back to the planet.
