    In the Alien universe, here's the plan. _Always:_
    1. Fuck the plan.
    2. RUN AWAAAAYYYYYYY!
    3. Ripley, you got this.

      Fun Fact: The original ending to Alien had the it piloting the ship.
      The original script also had the alien holding Parker hostage against Lambert (who would've been wielding a flamethrower), ultimately using Parker as a meat shield.

    The design of the Space Jockeys was far more interesting and unique then the Engineers.
    Also, while it sounds like a great idea to capture the Queen Mother, maybe sending a small rag-tag team to the literal home world of creatures that fucked up all of Earth with a small cluster of themselves, was not the most well thought out idea.

    • @opnavesea
      @opnavesea Před 7 lety +2

      ok it wasn't a bad movie i guess, it was fun to watch. it just didn't answer the questions i had from Prometheus. i felt Shaws death was a kin to alien 3 how they killed off hicks and newt. i wanted to know more about the engineers and i expected more of a suspenseful horror pacing. it felt too much like an action flick to me and i didn't care about any of the characters. they just seemed to be there to be xenomorph fodder. and knowing an emo android created the great xenomorph with some black goo just seems anti climatic. i just walked away unhappy from the film. i guess it depends a lot on your expectations going in. i can see how a person who didn't care about Prometheus or the connection to alien would enjoy it for what it is.

    • @tommyboy5924

    i feel as though the queens were waiting for the engineers because in the books they did say that they would come back to take over the earth when the marines come back and whoever the victor is the engineers will fight for earth. This is the part where the one engineer talks to newt when they are escaping earth.

      @allthatjeff Před 7 lety +7

      James Wolf Alien: They get the space message and visit LV-426 and bring an alien back on board. Ripley only survives and goes into hyper sleep.
      Aliens: 57 years later she is found in her pod. LV-426 has been colonized and she also outlived her daughter. They go to LV-426 and she finds Newt and all the marines but Hicks die. They got to hyper sleep again.
      Aliens 3: Hicks and Newt have died, Bishop is shut down by her and She's on a prison planet and has been impregnated with a queen. She kills herself to stop the company from getting the queen.
      Resurrection: 200 years have passed since Alien 3 and they resurrect her and get the queen extracted. She is part of them in a way and has acid blood with more agility, etc. The queen gives birth to a xeno/human hybrid, they crash the main ship to kill all the aliens on board and Ripley kills the hybrid.
      That's a very quick breakdown so you know the general gist of what happened.

    Rob, you probably won't read this, but the books and the comics don't have the same continuity, and have vastly different stories from one another. The novels follow a long continuity, after Female War, because in the novel, the nukes cause insane amounts of damage to the planet, but, don't lead to a planet wide catastrophe, because, in the novel, the queen mother is almost too big to fit in a battlecruiser size ship. Her pod is so big, that when they drop her on the planet, it creates a crater of its own, and she just rips herself free, because, again, in the novel, it is shown that she was capable of ripping apart space ships. Also, the Queen Mother's telepathy... was actually causing HUMANS to come under her sway, which is a major plot point the comics don't really cover.
    Genocide, specifically, follows several years after the events of Female War, and is one of the tie ins, to the rest of the continuity in the novels. There are a handful of non-continuity ones, but it has been YEARS since I read them all, and the new editions are... modified to fit in with Alien 3 mythos.
    Oh, and Ripley in Female War? Bioandroid (or it is heavily implied she is a new style version of the Bishop line, that was designed to -be- Ripley.)

    The three books by Steve Perry are why better at explaining things that are brought up in this video about the comics. The ending does still leave you wanting more sadly...
