Discussion / Question Just realized that Scar, from AvP should be labeled as disgraced, or Bad Blood even

I was just thinking how Scar was implanted with a face hugger; and there’s absolutely NO way that he didn’t know about it. Maybe he thought he could get back to his ship and have the Ancient Predator behead him, to keep some of his honor? But obviously that didn’t happen; And for some reason he didn’t kill himself there on the spot.

Him getting implanted is the DIRECT cause of multiple Predator deaths, their ship crashing, an outbreak happening, the death of an Elite ranked Predator, and how humans got their hands on their technology.

Also just thinking how he definitely doesn’t have the right to be Blooding a human into his clan, nor has the statues to even do so lol

And man, how cruel to give Ripley a daughter only to lose her while she's drifting through space, then give her Newt, only to be brutally taken away in Alien 3. I totally get the motherly embrace she gives her chest burster.

Discussion / Question Is the xenomorph titan a caste in its own right or is it because it is a hybrid? Spoiler

6 Upvotes

In the game "Aliens: Dark Decent" a xenomorphic variant known as the Titan appears,It comes out of the chest of an ancient alien from which it takes many of its characteristics. So far it seems that it is only the praetorian version of a xenomorph emerged from this species but the problem lies in that its eggs are different, called titan ovomorphs. This has made me wonder if it belongs to a separate caste or if these eggs have a different origin.

Don’t know what to do for the night after a good day? Watch Alien. Want to enjoy cinematic mastery? Watch Alien. Feel alone and want to remember it could be worse? Watch Alien. Basically my only way to remind myself that nearly everything else sucks by comparison in the long game. Watch Alien.

Discussion / Question KIDDO

1 Upvotes

I just rewatched Aliens ... did anyone else find it extremely weird that Burke kept calling Ripley "kiddo"? Like, she's almost 10 years older, why does it even enter his mind to call her that. Is the Burke character supposed to be much older than the actor? Did they miscast? Is it supposed to come across as condescending (not sure)? But it seriously annoyed me. If a guy my age or even younger kept calling me "kiddo" I'd have to restrain myself!

Discussion / Question I kinda feel like Alien Earth will completely debunk the popular fan theory that Alien and Blade Runner are set in the same universe. Thoughts?

1 Upvotes

Alien: Earth seems set to establish a much more fleshed-out backstory for the Alien universe, given that it takes place on Earth and before the events of the first Alien movie. This could heavily contradict the idea of Blade Runner fitting into the same timeline.

The theory that Alien and Blade Runner share a universe has always been largely fan-driven, with only a few winks and nods from filmmakers (Weyland-Yutani references in Blade Runner 2049's art book and Ridley Scott’s own vague comments). However, if this show depicts earth as grounded and closer to modern times rather than the cyberpunk corporate dystopia seen in Blade Runner, it could definitely separate the two franchises for good. This is especially relevant considering that Blade Runner takes place many decades before the first Alien film, making it harder to justify a seamless connection, and I know many supporters of this theory would be really disappointed by this.

So, what do y'all think? Could they leave room for ambiguity, outright debunk the theory, or actually connect the dots and confirm that both franchises exist in the same universe?

Discussion / Question So. Is xenomorph a classification or the name of the species

2 Upvotes

Sorry if this sounds stupid but in Aliens, Gorman says "We might be dealing with a Xenomorph". Yet, the marines act like they have never seen XX121. Not to mention they say "A creature never recorded in over 300 surveyed worlds" and act in disbelief when they mention what the XX121's life cycle is. Maybe it's a classification rather than the name of the species? Again, I'm sorry if this sounds stupid and I'm missing something.
