    hey guys, so i postponed the other video for tomorrow, i realised yesterday that those videos were a pretty big shock to some people so i didn't want to put two different franchises out in two days! hope to bring you alternating content and in the future, maybe even two videos a day, familiar stuff and new stuff.
    hope you enjoyed the video anyway, been working on this one for a week!

    Interesting. Shaw always had an issue with regards to giving birth. David in a cruel twist of fate turns her into a queen, allowing her to birth the xenomorph race.

  • @ackers5861
    @ackers5861 Před 7 lety +82

    I still firmly prefer that humans and the xenomorphs are rigidly kept as two separate species. Transforming Shaw into a full protomorph queen whom all xenomorphs descend from completely destroys the concept of 'alien' in my opinion. I like the idea of the accelerant and experiments by David, but I find the theory on Shaw's mutation to be pushing it a bit.

    • @BulletTooth504
      @BulletTooth504 Před 7 lety +13

      The xenos have always been part human. Or part whatever organism they might use for a host.

    • @ackers5861
      @ackers5861 Před 7 lety +17

      That's different, as it is fundamentally part of the species' biology to inherit traits from the host. You missed the point. My problem lies in the entire species being evolutionarily descended from the human line, or in this theorised case, from Shaw. I don't want xenos to be genetically bastardised versions of humans, or humans to transform into 15ft high xeno queens. It completely tarnishes their image.

    • @firstlastcreativity
      @firstlastcreativity Před 7 lety +3

      I have been thinking along similar lines. The mystery of the original Alien may be lost by the time we come to the end of this trilogy.

    • @firstlastcreativity
      @firstlastcreativity Před 7 lety +3

      I think that the, 'Alien', is an original species. I do, however, like the idea that the mechanical aspect of the Xenomorph could be added into the mix by another antagonist in the story. I think it would be very Alien 4 if Shaw were to me the Mother :D I'm hoping that something along the line of Egg Morphing is used to create the Eggs.

    • @ackers5861
      @ackers5861 Před 7 lety +5

      I don't have a problem with the xenomorphs from the original trilogy being engineered products. I just think turning Shaw into a supposed 'proto queen' would be a disservice to both the character and the xenomorphs, unless that won't be as literal as it sounds, i.e. David harvesting Shaw's reproductive organs to create them. She was already the effective 'mother' of the trilobite back in Prometheus, and hence the Deacon.

  • @bigtravis1968

    how horrible would it be if David removed Shaw's eggs,exposed them to the black gue and it resulted in face hugger eggs

    • @MrHReviews

      +Wayne R yeah thats the theory I think which could be potentially likely. Just not a mutated Shaw

  • @Sareil
    @Sareil Před 7 lety +12

    Got two ideas.
    1: Shaw is dead. But David harvested her ovaries. After combining her eggs with the spores he created proto-eggs.
    2: Shaw is "dead." It's said that David is acting more human. Could it be that Shaw was able to transfer her consciousness into David's body and that she, gone mad from being alone, creates the eggs?

    • @MysticalCyan

      Spoilers, you are spot on with one of those, but Im not gonna say which.

  • @xer0c
    @xer0c Před 7 lety +20

    It would certainly be an ironic end for her. She couldn't have children as a human. Now, as a genetic aberration/xenomorph, she'd be a mother to hundreds, if not thousands of xenomorphs. It would be tragic to reveal her as a queen. Not as a traditional looking queen, but some messed up human/queen hybrid.

    • @immortalgamer2564
      @immortalgamer2564 Před 6 lety

      I think her death was fitting cuz in Prometheus she was infertal and unable to be pregnant but in Covenant she indirectly gave "birth" to the xenomorph species

  • @ck7250
    @ck7250 Před 7 lety +7

    I think that is a lazy plot line if she is now a queen. We know that Scott wanted her involvement in the film to be a secret because she is supposed to be a part of a major plot twist. Personally I think she crashed the ship to prevent David from taking it to Earth. We also know that there was a set visit from some blogger who noted a sketch of Shaw with tubes coming out from her head. To me that sounds like an engineer cryo chamber mask. I think she entered a cryo chamber and the Covenant crew finds her. She then warns them of the evil of David. Shaw either dies trying to stop David or makes it back with Daniels. That's my two cents anyway.

  • @CMDRFlyAuburn
    @CMDRFlyAuburn Před 7 lety +1

    You should do a video on how the worms in Prometheus, which became 'hammerpeeds' reverted to a sort of "proto face hugger"; a 'face' that opens, instinct to attack the face and mouth area of a potential host, a tail that latches on and won't let go and tightens if provoked, and acid for blood. It's almost as if the black goo is 'programmed' (I believe we are dealing with ancient biomechanical nanotechnology here) to transform lesser life forms into face huggers.

  • @djsmileyoflasvegas
    @djsmileyoflasvegas Před 7 lety +2

    here is some more info on shaw and david
    Noomi Rapace’s return as Elizabeth Shaw was meant to be a surprise and audiences weren’t supposed to know going into the film. Even though that news had broken already, details on Shaw’s role in the film were scarce.
    After landing on the Planet with David, Shaw turns an Engineer’s sleeping chamber into her domain where she was “holding out for a while.”

    • @MrHReviews
      @MrHReviews  Před 7 lety +5

      +Greg Cox fox cut for a reason, it isn't canon, so unless they double back now, I'm not sure I'd say that is likely

    • @gregcox5577
      @gregcox5577 Před 7 lety +2

      Good point, maybe the eggs are a mutated form of a different organism native to paradise that David experimented on

    • @suraventri2544
      @suraventri2544 Před 7 lety +3

      +Mr H Reviews I thought they cut the scene because of time? The scene was so long that the self-destruct counter would have gone off by the time it was finished. Or was that a film crew member putting a positive spin on a change to the film?

    • @BulletTooth504
      @BulletTooth504 Před 7 lety +2

      The egg-morphing scene messed up the pacing. It also did not look like it was complete.
      But just because it was cut does not mean they can't use the egg-morphing concept in a new movie.

    • @suraventri2544
      @suraventri2544 Před 7 lety +2

      +BulletTooth504 Yea I didn't think they would throw out an idea that was cut for timing. If they cut it for story/theme reasons I would think its an idea they wouldn't use in a sequel, but since it was more timing and pacing I think Ridley might still use it.

      +Nico Tenraa appreciate the sub :) as for the overall distress signal, its likely to be David, I highly doubt shaw could set it without his knowledge and him switching it off.

  • @firstlastcreativity
    @firstlastcreativity Před 7 lety +28

    Shaw seems to look deformed in the trailer. My theory is that Shaw was in the process of transformation, while sending out a distress call which is intercepted by the Covenant. The idea that Shaws reproductive organs are used to somehow create the eggs seems plausible. Perhaps the protomoph is the original Alien, seen on the Morual in Prometheus and is indigenus to Paradise. This leeds me to the theory that the eggs are created by the protomorph, morphing the humanoid beings on Paradise.
    Then Shaw ends her days in much the same way as her partner did in promethues, saddly :( Thinking about it, the life cycle of the traditional alien and the life cycle shown in Prometheus, as well as the effects of being infected by the black liquid, there seem to be two seperate processes involved in this story. One, the life cycle of the Alien, where by an infected individual procreates in order to kick start the said life cycle. Two, the process of the infected individual becoming a mutated form which partially resembles the alien form. I theorise that the black liquid is basicly the genetic code of an alien, the ancestor of the Xenomorph seen in Alien and Aliens. I theorise that the mural of the decon like crearture in prometheus is the original alien. Moving forward, the biomechanical anatomy of the Xenomorph seems to come about some time between Alien Covenant and Alien(1979). The best theory that I have heared is that David himself is infected by the black liquid and transforms into the ancestor of the Xenomorph. How would this happen ? Perhaps David experiments on Walter, to make this happen. Thus Walter becoming the original Xenomorph, not David. Perhaps Walter is actually the Space Jockey, which we see in Alien (1079), which explains why the Space Jockey is melded into the chair. The original Xenomorph then being the creature that burst from the Space Jockey's chest. Lots of vaguely connected ideas here. I just love theorising about this story. Great thought provoking Mr H. Thank you.

    • @MrHReviews
      @MrHReviews  Před 7 lety +4

    • @firstlastcreativity
      @firstlastcreativity Před 7 lety +6

      Mr H Reviews Good theory. After seeing how things ended with those who were effected by the black Liquid in Prometheus, I'm thinking Shaw looks deformed.

    • @chemicalboy123
      @chemicalboy123 Před 7 lety +4

      Shaw had a hysterectomy, that is the removal of the uterus but not the fallopian tubes. A xeno queen is basically fallopian tubes to produce eggs and the long tube structure (vagina) to move and deposit them outside the body.

    • @firstlastcreativity
      @firstlastcreativity Před 7 lety

      I like the theory that black liquid has re programmed David. Perhaps David isn't completely synthetic. It must be wonderful to be a writer of these movies, coming up with ideas for the direction of the plot.

  • @MrKago1
    @MrKago1 Před 7 lety +1

    Remember, though, in the med pod she had the fluid in the amniotic sac drop right into the open wound of her cesarean. Infection and sickness were likely in all honesty. And even if the trilobite couldn't infect her, there may have been something in the amniotic fluid that triggered some form of illness. I don't think David would be above experimenting on her if he knew for sure she was going to die.

    • @MrHReviews
      @MrHReviews  Před 7 lety +1

      +Necroticus illness and mutation are entirely separate though. An infection to which David attempted to treat I agree with, that's a possibility.

    • @MrKago1
      @MrKago1 Před 7 lety +1

      Mr H Reviews I doubt she's been mutated as well, it would just be a distraction from tbe main plot. But what I meant was if she was dying of illness David, having no conscience, would not be above infecting her as she lay dying. Not in an effort to treat her (though he might lie to get her to cooperate) but solely to experiment on what he would see as a lost cause. If she's septic and there is no antibiotics, she's going to die regardless. I can see David looking at experimentation as logical at this point. Though I still doubt we will see anything of her, mutated or not.

  • @stephaniethurman3641
    @stephaniethurman3641 Před 7 lety +4

    Hey, Mr. H! Per one of our previous conversations, you know that I think Shaw mutates into an alien. I'm not sure it was David. It very well could have been because of what he did to Holloway but, as seen in Covenant trailers, infection is possible through the inhalation of spores. Shaw could have accidentally breathed in a spore while investigating the planet. Nobody will really know until Covenant is released. Thanks for the upload and hope to see more theories, soon.

    One important distinction that I have not heard talked about before is that the black goo does not mutate the engineers, it causes their DNA to disintegrate. Everything else seems to get mutated by it. I think this distinction is probably critical in understanding what the black goo is and what its intended purpose is.

    • @MrHReviews
      @MrHReviews  Před 7 lety

      +ShockL0ver I don't think so, I think they are just varying chemical agents, one breaks down and seeds life, one mutates and the one David uses on Paradise seems to kill

    • @Striker163videos
      @Striker163videos Před 7 lety

      It has different effects when applied in different ways. That's the nature of it. That's also why it's an experimental tool. Holloway was undergoing the same process as the engineer from the intro only much slower(and more painfully) because he consumed less.

  • @fitnessabcvideo

  • @Structureel
    @Structureel Před 7 lety +2

    Holloway's infected sperm fertilized one of Shaw's eggs, creating the trilobyte. So it stands to reason that David used the accelerant on Shaw's eggs to somehow create the facehugger eggs.

  • @anthonyyoutubefan7567
    @anthonyyoutubefan7567 Před 7 lety +2

    If this scenario turns out to be true, how tragic would that be for Dr. Shaw, esp. considering her strong belief in God, Jesus, and Faith, in general? Also, it would be a tragedy for a Scientist, who looked at her work as a way of deciphering the mysteries of Life, to ultimately end up uncovering -- or being unintentionally caught in -- the unspeakable horrors and terrors of it. She would, in many ways, be seen almost as the flipside of Ellen Ripley: Ripley, ultimately overcame her horrors (hopefully we'll see this in its total fruition in ALIEN 5 -- better title later, hopefully), and became stronger/better for it...whereas, Elizabeth Shaw will be seen as the worst victim/pawn in a nefarious, horrific chess match between Man and Something Far Stronger and Deadlier...

  • @joshuaberardelli9461

  • @MixxedMonster
    @MixxedMonster Před 7 lety +1

    maybe David's comment of eggs waiting on mother was a reference to "mother" from the Nostromo?? Maybe that scene was after Shaw put out distress signal? just a thought.

    • @MrHReviews
      @MrHReviews  Před 7 lety +2

      +MixxedMonster yeah maybe, but then the scene wouldn't make much sense, why would he lead captain Oram to the eggs to get face hugged to then state the eggs are waiting for muthur? The simplest answer is probably the right one here I think, we remember David as having quite the quick wit in Prometheus, I think its just a reference to the eggs needing a host. It wouldn't be a reference to the nostromo as that's some 30 years into the future, maybe the covenant muthur computer, however I don't think so

    • @davidgmcneill
      @davidgmcneill Před 7 lety +1

      I think there's a good reason why Oram is the one to become the first 'mother' to David's experiment. It's stated that Oram is deeply religious and believes in the sanctity of life as God's creation alone. I think David would find that very interesting and target Oram specifically to be exposed to the new life that he has created to teach him something of a lesson. Does that make sense?

  • @Wicked15Jester
    @Wicked15Jester Před 7 lety +1

    I think the eggs are in that area because David moved them, I believe they didn't hatch because he is a synthetic so his presence is sensed as "Dead" in a way, I like to think that in someway to possibly help her David experimented and turned Shaw into a Protomorph Queen, if we do see a queen in the movie, I think it will be an end credit scene. however that's just what I think, I do like reading other peoples ideas and theories and I do enjoy watching your videos Mr. H, can't wait to see more.

    a good theoretical possibility given that the black goo is a mutagenic weapon based on Xno morph Dna. so the transformation is id imagine not going to be a perfect transformation. that and the eggs would have to be laid by a queen. or are the eggs a left overs from the engineers last capture for the experiments in the creation of more of the black goo. given that perhaps the time perhaps they needed a pure strain of xno morph dna that only a queen or a Facehugger has since they doesn't bare any other Dna mixing from other species.

    after her role in the last movie any other fate would feel like a let down whether its a newt/ hicks off screen death ( crash or David kills her. or if she's just in cryo sleep like the engineer was. would feel that like a disappointment. so the best use of her character is to involve her in the creation of the new morphs. whether she is made into the queen. or she creates the queen facehugger and it lays the queen into Daniels

    • @MrHReviews
      @MrHReviews  Před 7 lety +1

      +Julian Gomez as much as I agree, her character and story has to serve the over all story not the story serving her character, so if the story arc ridley wishes to go would be best served without her, then that's the best course of action. Should never write a story to serve a character, not when there is a greater universe to delve into

    Yo Mr. H (Jesse Pinkman voice) I would like just like your opinion on the trajectory of the Alien films. The franchise has been subjected to executive meddling in the past and it causes me dread because I fail to see why it could be any different for the upcoming films. I fear that we will get another cryptic movie like prometheus where we are subtly forced to see more sequels for any closure.

  • @mosesabas4527
    @mosesabas4527 Před 7 lety +1

    My theory are the eggs in alien covenant are created by David. Second David seems to have a fondness for Shaw so yes I agree with Mr. H. Lastly I believe Shaw is alive but is no longer human. Although, I believe she's not a Queen from previous franchise films but horrid in appearance. I believe how her fate will payout/presented on the silver screen will most likely be a good twist and surprising. Hopefully no fan service.

  • @jordanbrandon81
    @jordanbrandon81 Před 7 lety +1

    (Warning this contains more then my ideas about this theory and is more of a summerised thought dump :P) The idea that her sexual organs specifically ovaries where used is interesting. The more 'pointed' shape of these eggs does seem to look slightly more like an ovary so this could be the case. The idea also comes from them being called 'Ovomorphs' (Or was it Ovamorphs?) in expanded media. Where we won't know till the movie (Unless they keep it secret for 'awakening') so can't rule it out or say it's a fact yet. All we can confirm is by the time of Alien the creatures eggs look different, are capable of producing queens, are more bio mechanical and somehow made it to LV426 while an engineer had a chest burst wound. So either those eggs are already on LV426 and the ships been there all along meaning these Xenomorphs (Protomorphs whatever they are) are simply David's experiments. As with all the other engineers seemingly dead it is an interesting thought. But back onto the original topic I don't see Shaw being a queen but the apparent comment from David about 'waiting for mother' could be a mix of his obsession with creators and how mothers are human creators (Maybe thus wanting the Xenos to have the same 'feeling'? It's exciting. Part of me wants the Xenomorphs to be genetic abominations or weapons but part of me wants Xenomorph Prime to exist and them to be natural. I hope if we get a new AVP cinematic universe we get things like the Praetorians and and Xenomorph Prime if the 'Alien' series wants them to be artificial which I am fine with as it makes sense. Their too 'perfect' of an organism.

    • @icebergo6
      @icebergo6 Před 7 lety

      jordanbrandon81 great ideas! love the fact that you remind us of the bioMECHANICAL aspects of Alien world. I think that innovative component is a key feature of what made the initial Alien concept so unique. sadly its often forgotten in most comments. and that's easy to understand. the organism based theories of cross mutation are endless and very compelling since we are good ol' blood and guts sorta creatures. so adding the possibilities of mechanical fusion into our theories is even more confusing and mind blowing! it certainly expands the realms of possibilities on an exponential level. but we can't forget it as a contributing factor of what's happening in the Alien universe.

    I think there's a reason why they had the whole Infertile shaw's uterus suddenly mutated into giving birth to facehuggers. There is a reason why this was in Prometheus and it makes more and more sense if overtime she completes her mutation and turns into an alien queen that lays proper eggs with proper facehuggers unlike the premature mess she ripped out of her womb in the first movie.

  • @ezew4144
    @ezew4144 Před 7 lety

    I think there is a point in that there isn't an infection with complete mutated creatures. ie Hicks getting acid blood on him and it literally only burns....as well as seen in AVP films. however it would be key to look at a few points which are what the creator explored. he liked the idea of a queen. but as well in the original alien we see something no other film showed(extras) which was hints of Egg morphing. and at that from a drone not a queen. so it seems either the substances the aliens excrete or through some form of contact they are or was hinted at the ability to have an additional life cycle.
    this all leads to exactly what is a egg/ facehugger/ the embryo implanted? its argued its a tumor of which the genetic raw material from the host is reconstructed to form the alien of which characteristics of the host is present. hence it could be a different or manufactured form of the excelerant. of which even drones can produce to ensure the aliens continue even when no queen facehugger or queen is there. I would argue the facehugger implants a tumor (which is essentially a mass of cells) is no different from infected sperm. but since these movies are showing the mechanism behind the Alien in Alien. I would think Ridley would explore the mechanism behind the bizarre hint at egg morphing.
    and ironically it would be a queen made from a human again but a much more deeper connection and better story than alien 3.
    if Shaw wasn't able to have a child but womb was changed to bare it i think it was the sperm acting no different than the original alien in Alien egg morphing through what seemed to be the very bio mechanical structure coating its victims and the walls etc of the ship.
    then again who really knows. I'm going off things from the original which these more so are for than the later films which weren't as good.
    last the egg room. lets remember that the queen can have eggs in several places. think Alien 3 after the swim. also the possibility of David moving some to a separate location.
    the guy who was suffocated was no different from a victim of a drone who isn't taken to be impregnated but killed. this now goes back to the original alien information and extras . where the question is asked does it eat? or do the creatures spawned from the excelerant use victims who aren't impregnated as simply organic fuel for the hive structure.
    actually look at the name covenant. what if the twist is Shaw lost all her faith and after witnessing the engineers she agrees to work with David and create a ultimate lifeform. thus making a covenant to do the unthinkable .

    I do somewhat agree with you that likely there will not be a Alien Queen, to me it just seems like they would be doing too much in one movie unless the movie is like 3ish hours long. But the "Eggmorphing" thing could be possible in a sense that Engineers were utilized as raw material or the locals of the planet were by David utilizing perhaps as you said Shaw's corpse. Either way I hope this is something interesting and new in the coming movie and its not something just overhyped.

    It makes no sense if David just simply killed her using black goo. I mean you can clearly see their relationship become more complex in the end of Prometheus. Plus, the "Paradise" is supposed to be the homeworld of Engineers. It would be a huge waste of plot if Shaw & David did not engage with the engineers at some point during the past decade before the Covenant arrived. I bet Shaw's "transformation" has everything to do with the interaction with the engineers on the "Paradise"

  • @nickbernabe5176
    @nickbernabe5176 Před 7 lety +1

    In my opinion Shaw mutating into a Queen would be a step too far. If she is the host to begin the process of creating a Queen that remains to be seen. I agree with you though, either the eggs are engineered by David or possibly egg morphing may have occurred using the engineers (same process of Dallas and Brett's fate in Alien Directors cut).... This may explain why they look bigger (with the logic that the engineers are larger than humans). However, I would imagine that the engineer would need to be alive for the morphing to be successful? This would contradict speculation of David wiping the all the Engineers out on arrival ... But maybe some survived and were used as experiments (including egg morphing) ... Maybe :-)

  • @themissingpeace7956
    @themissingpeace7956 Před 7 lety

    My take is that they both arrive on Paradise and David exterminated the Engineers with the Black Goo.
    Shaw gets upset, they have an argument and
    A) He turns her into a xenomorph/queen using the black goo.
    B) She attempts to run away and is killed by one of David's creations while recording a distress message (as seen in the trailer). David could then transform her somehow into an egg or something else.
    This is only speculation but I'd like to see her morph into an alien.

    pretty obvious the figure standing in the egg room is walter, He is a company android, so was david and so was Ash. The whole gaining knowledge and specimens at any costs probably didn't end with David. Probably how a xenomorph gets on the Covenant, he lets Crudup get facehugged and then brings him back to the ship
    The hologram Shaw didn't react when the long thing (alien tail?) went through her, so maybe the hologram is the combination of two different holograms of the bridge. One at the beginning of the trip to paradise and the other much later on, maybe at the moment of impact on paradise. She went into hypersleep and slowly transformed on the way there.

    I would like to believe a Queen(Shaw or not) laid those eggs. But I think we need more information on the creation of a xenomorph. There are other pieces to this puzzle that might be explained in Covenant. We are being shown possiblities. David had 10 years to experiment with the liquid, Engineers and 1 human host(Shaw). He(David) found a way to make eggs without a queen. Which came first, the queen or an egg? Figuring my theory is correct and excluding any experimentation, how do you get a queen? What about the bird like creature in the mural beside the wounded Engineer? Maybe that creature with the liquid and an Engineer made a version of a queen. Or is our Space Jockey(Last Engineer) the first queen? Just like Mr. H says, these are all theories. I could be completely wrong.
