>>80122090
For real now, why did the axe ever become a meme? Were there really that many RLM-wannabe autists around that desperate for a reason to hate a new science-fiction sequel that the space-axe is still being posted about that many years later? This has to be the most confusing meme-criticism in existence. It's a fucking axe. It cuts things.

That's amniotic fluid, not xeno blood.

When you hear a pregnant woman say her "water broke", she's referring to the amniotic sac rupturing and releasing the amniotic fluid.

You forgot the best part

>two doctors that she knocked out with extinguisher just calmly go with her and Weyland to the engineer, no questions asked

I guess they thought she disposed of it somehow, even though no one really knows what happened because no one asked.

That whole sequence is probably where the movie begins to follow its own dream logic and slowly dies.

It's a clear yellowish color.
Point is that it was part of her, not a foreign body like the chestbursters. Even then the chesterbursters don't emit any acid blood when they emerge.

IIRC the trilobite is never wounded in the film, so for all we know it doesn't even have acidic blood.

I really hope the underlying plot of this movie is weyland-monsanto trying to use the black goo to GMO supercharge the wheat they find on the planet. They take the xenos pure wholesome organic wheat farming and turn it into steroided cash crop wheat.

The rest is a look at the motivations of a simple farmer xeno, driven to be a killer because the normies took his land and his wheat and he is out for revenge.

A pure wheat kino and an expose on the motivations of the xeno, something we have never had in an alien movie before.
>>
>>80131337
This guy is right.
This "machine" is holding the whole amniotic sac and when the alian is moving and breaking it, it releases all the amniotic fluid at once (which is about one liter for a average pregnant woman).

I am a paramedic in a rural area and i had to play delivery doctor 3 times.
The amount of amniotic fluid and blood is actually pretty correct, it even can be a bit green (not thaat much green, but i guess that it can vary).

It's funny.
There are sooo many things wrong in this movie, but you pick the one single thing which is actually not that much wrong.

I hope you guys will never witness an actual birth, if you can't believe this ;)

What the fuck was his problem?
>>
>>80131954
wait... i have to clarify a few more things, because i bet that some "everything has to be 100% correct"-guy would complain about some other thing in this scene.

What you can complain about is:
1. that the amniotic sac did not immediately break when it got removed.. but the machine was holding it at the part of the alien, so i guess it's just a minor thing.
2. how she is ripping the umbilical cord out. (this would lead to massive bleeding)
3. the placenta is still inside and she would have to shit it out of her vagina 20min later

So basically you can complain that in reality an improvised abdominal delivery would look way more horrible.
