I thought in AVP the predators had a queen that they froze and whenever they wanted to fight some aliens they'd just microwave her.

The alien origin is just dumb, why make them into a bug-hive species and then turn them into a synthetic race made by an alien virus.

it would have been better to create a Giger world where they developed, a ferocious place that forced them to evolve into ultimate killer species and if you want to shit on science, show engineers as arrogant and superior and nature over comes their cautious scientific approach and fucks them up, show that engineers are divided on what to do with them(political allegory) and then show antagonist faction using them as bioweapons. You could lace these films with so much meaning that it would stand test of time but lets just make useless dreck that will be forgotten by next year.

ridley doesn't give two shits about the queen

the best thing you can hope for, if Fox allows him to continue with future movies, is that he just fucking ignores the concept while still keeping options open for a queen xeno to spawn
>>
>>83255806
The alien doesn't belong to Scott. It belongs to Giger, and he approved of the queen.
>>
>>83255841
lolno

the queen is cameron's and stan winstons creation
>>
>>83255641

The creatures from the spores were like, offshoots of the Xenomorph. The standard Xeno was shown the old-fashion way.

Which is the convoluted biology of "Egg -> Facehugger laying an egg in a host- -> Chestburster."

Maybe David just ends up developing a way for the eggs to propagate without him, if that ends up being the case.

So he could either develop the Queen, or it could just end up that way, totally out of his control like I mentioned.

>>83255659

Its clear that it is a bloodline, though.

Remember, AvP is like, modern times. Guy Pearce Weyland is some 3 or 4 generations removed, and Aliens Bishop is probably another 3 or 4 generations removed.

>>83255806
They could still salvage it by going with the aliens from Alien are the original aliens that are just spacebugs that somewhere in time came in contact with the Engineers, the Engineers did experiments with them and created the black goo out of them.
David then created the aliens from Prometheus/Covenant out of the black goo and have covenant sequel end in a way that David's alien just simply dies out or goes to some other part of the galaxy or some shit.

This way you can have original aliens as spacebugs, Alien vs Predator storyline as aliens have existed before David and the possibility of new sequels.

It was an OK film, I felt a good chunk of the plot relied on stupid decisions made by the crew. My main grope was David going insane, somehow outsmarting a later model of himself and body swapping with Walter. SFX were great, acting was solid and one or two good spooks.

Not Scott's either, so why does his word carry authority? Point is that the alien belongs to Giger so his word is law.

>>
>>83256323
>also cameron fucked up the dome of the aliens, Giger though

Because Cameron's Aliens were just bug-like space horde monsters.

Giger's Alien head was a penis in a condom. That's why it has the smooth, milky, semi-translucent dome.
>>
>>83257392
The dome was fragile and broke constantly. Christ, when did everyone stop watching the behind the scenes featurettes?
>>
>>83254509

Except there are "Predafriends" in the comics and video games, so you have to pick one or the other. You either like the idea or you don't.
>>
>>83257424

I'm not talking about why they didn't use it in Aliens. I'm talking about Giger's original design. Since everything he's ever designed is either a monster focused around vaginas, tits, or penises, the smooth dome was designed to look like a penis in a condom.

Cameron didn't "fuck up" the dome, they just couldn't/didn't use it like you said because of the issues.

Also, as has been brought up before plenty of times, Cameron just threw out the idea that these Xenos were "older" and had molted more times, losing the dome, or whatever.

Breaking the props have nothing to do with why Giger originally designed it that way.

Ridley was just the guy that shoot alien, he didn't came up with the art or the script, he doesnt understand his own material, threw away all alien's mythos, and i think he did that purposefully to shoehorn his religious creationnist bullshit because he's afraid of death since his brother died

Prometheus was still somewhat doable with the facts established in Alien.

>space jockey clearly some alien thing fused to an organic/mechanical ship
They half-assed that but it being some kind of pilot suit was never out of the realm of possibility.


>engineers are not even the accurate size, compared to the space jockey, engineers should be two times bigger
That's a legitimate issue. They're not even consistent in size within Prometheus. When the engineer is awakened by David, he appear to be nine or ten feet tall, but when he's trying to kill Shaw he appears to be roughly seven feet.

>when the nostromos crew get on the derelict, they say everyting looks fossilized, the timeline doesn't fit
The ritual scene at the beginning establishes that engineers are super fucking old, so there's more than enough time for one to fossilize. Why the fuck weren't the eggs fossilized? The mural in the urn room, as well as Fifeld's mutation, seemed to imply that the aliens predate the goo, that it is made from them, or that this particular batch is programmed to turn things into aliens. There are legitimate issues, but Prometheus still fit roughly with Alien. All these problems could have easily been handwaved but Covenant shat the bed far worse than Prometheus.
>>
>>83250167

Original Alien was pretty much as bad as Aliens. Aliens of course was just a money maker like everything that came after it. Prometheus had hope, it could've resurrected the franchise but then they ruined it all with Covenant. Covenant could of course be just a very tedious and long prelude for the next movie in line, but if it's about a broken sociopathic android destroying humanity... I just don't think that many people care about seeing that.

If the android could justify its means to humans then maybe I could be interested. But right now it's kind of deus ex machina type of thing and it's not entertaining or thought provoking. It's just like fapping yourself to the edge and then quitting.

I don't like what Aliens or Prometheus did with the monster but enjoyed them both as films, Aliens massively more so.

maybe the eggs were able to hibernate in a kind of statis that doesnt deteriorate?
doesnt this simply add to the mystery of the whole?
>>
>>83258561
No, it just creates a double standard between plot holes and "mystery".

>Why the fuck weren't the eggs fossilized?
I think it's implied that the blue mist around the eggs was some sort of technological stasis provided by the ship, basically a blanket of hypersleep to store them as weapons on long voyages. I doubt the eggs last very long otherwise, maybe several months like fleas.

I hate the idea of David creating xenos so much, that I created a fucking headcannon. Here it is.

The black goo contains the ultimate genetic code of xenomorph species as we know it. With eggs, facehuggers, original dickhead aliens, all the shit.

In order to create xeno, the black goo doesn't necessarily make the 100% xeno pop out from the first infected creature, but instead it always finds a way to create at least something alien-like, something that inevitably will evolve into xenomorph like it's programmed to. Squid-facehugger, deacon alien, alien-looking dude with elongated head (deleted scene), alien snake, neomorph, all the stupid alien-looking shit you can imagine. So original xenos existed before and will exist without David. David just tries to find a way to extract/cultivate the perfect OG alien gene, not knowing engineers already mastered the method of creating 100% pure xeno from black goo and used it multiple times - that's why we see xenos on the murals in Prometheus, on south pole or inside the space jockey's ship on lv426

The black goo, if used by engineer, has their potent alpha-male genetic code imprinted over alien code. Now it contains genetic code of a big blue dude, just twisted to a certain point. And, just like the original black goo, engineer-powered black goo tries to reach it's endgame - creating a species, whose genes it contains. But instead of an engineer, it contains one of the twisted inferior versions of engies (humans, covenant quakers) and it takes billions of years and a whole planet to complete the synthesis of a species. They basically program the black goo with their genes to create some version of a bipedal dude in the end instead of xenomorph.

As far as I can see, everything fits as far as Ridley doesn't make another movie where David becomes the CEO of WY in the end.

I haven't seen the first Alien in a while, is it ever actually established that the final xenomorph bleeds acid at all or did they just assume because the facehugger did?

You are now aware that you live in a world, a terrifying world, where there are people right this moment who use terms such as "canon" and "cinematic universe" when talking about films and television shows.

A terrifying world where imagined characters on a screen are required, according to those who discuss them, to adhere to "ground rules" set out by the creators of said-characters. A terrifying world where those that discuss these characters and their actions, are actually enraged if said-characters deviate from the mannerisms expected of them, the mannerisms that may have initially been set in the pages of a comic book.

Think about that. A comic book. For children. Yes, pictures and words on the same page, which are meant to be read by children, that are actually read by adults. Adults who bicker and express their frustration at film-adaptations of these comic books not being "faithful". Faithful to a comic book. That's supposed to be read by young children.

This is your world. This is the world of capeshit. Terrifying, isn't it?

How Bishop survive the Predator attack, living like 200 years or more and become a synthetic younger version of himself? Explant this, anon.

You can't right? then isn't cannon.

I'm Okay with this.

>Literally the entire main conflict of the alien franchise is to prevent Aliens from getting to earth because they will easily end the human race

I think it was just an assumption, a pretty reasonable one under the circumstances (offspring shares the same essential biological makeup as in humans, combined with not remotely worth the risk as you're likely to depressurise entire sections of the ship, plus good luck taking a fucking scalpel to a xenomorph anyway).

Alienfags are the capeshitters of sci-fi. That's a fucking FACT!

>clear continuity is scary
>media without plot holes is terrifying
>people should just laugh and clap when things happen in a new installment of a long running series that shits all over the established rules and conventions of the earlier pieces

What's terrifying is that you're serious, you have no clue what makes "good fiction", you seem to think that whatever whacky stuff you can come up with can just go anywhere and story doesn't matter.

Covenant crew were a special Olympics team.

Haven't seen Alien Covenant yet, but this was how I assumed the black goo worked after watching Prometheus.
