I find a Xenomorph to be more deadly than a Terminator. When you kill a Terminator, they don't go and squirt acid blood at you and they don't bite off your face or impregnate you with an alien that will burst through your chest. Not to mention that Xenomorphs are tough to kill because they move around a lot and are very agile. Terminators walk slow and are easy to pick off because they can't dodge gun fire.
Ripley wins this.

And on the other side of the coin, a few bullets kills a xeno, whereas a Terminator can take a bullet to the face and keep on smiling, a pipe bomb, not to mention several rounds of gunfire. Pick your poison, I'll face a xeno anyday over a Terminator.
Sarah defeated the second terminator, the liquid dude, this alone puts her light years above Ripley. Not to mention pwning the first terminator.
Terminators shoot back too.

You're missing the point. Shoot a Xeno and acid blood will come spraying out and if it hits you, you're screwed.
No she didn't. The Terminator (the good one) is the one who defeated the liquid dude by shooting a grenade at it. The explosion made the liquid terminator go flying in a pool of lava.

She held her own, if she had had only one more shotgun shell she would have pwned it. So let's say she has 1 1/2 terminator kills.
And she would rip Ripley a new vagina.

Ripley, a better leader? You do realize that Sarah trained John become the leader of the human resistance, right?
I realize that thats what Terminator 2 wanted us to believe but then they made Terminator 3 and 4. After which, we learned that all Sarah Conner did was tell John that he is going to be the savior of mankind one day. The rest, he learned on his own. I thought Ripley showed far better decision making under pressure.

I would like to see Ripley escape from her hospital room like Sarah did.

She didn't prepare John for squat. John was a scared little girl in Terminator 3. He just lived out a self fulfilling prophecy. It would have been nice to see the latter two movies follow the story-line that was set in Terminator 2 but unfortunately that wasn't the case and everything that Terminator 2 established was made irrelevant. I mean, we learn in, T4 that John really isn't that important at all lol
I don't know. I think Ripley could have escaped from her hospital room, considering the staff were oblivious idiots. All she did was make a lockpick. Ripley is incredibly intelligent, i'm sure she could have figured that out.
