Hinikunagoji,
what are you?
It’s just a normal day for me.
just imagine actually seeing that. you're walking down the sidewalk, enjoying the fresh air, when you hear the sound of what seems to be a lazer. then you look up.
it's a giant radioactive dino-lizard thing curled up like a shrimp firing a lazer beam from its mouth, flying backwards through the air.
He's fighting Hedorah, so clearly he's going to use his atomic breath to fly like in the older film...
But there is a huge difference between a cyborg and a synthetic/android/robot/artifical person.
The former is born human that later gets robotical parts added on them be that an artifical spine, limb or even entire body...as long as they keep their brain/soul/consciousness human
The later is constructed at a factory. IIRC Bishop called himself an artificial person, not a cyborg. Unless you meant the T-800 from Terminator 2, who does refer to himself as a cyborg but he is more of a reverse cyborg since the T-800 is a regular robot covered in organic skin.
I think if they included cyborgs in canon, they would have a good opportunity to clarify the difference
At the end of Aliens, if Bishop divulged he was a cyborg, I don't think it would have made a difference to the audience. Cyborg, synthetic, robot, mechanical man, probably be lumped into one. Probably just confuse them.
Alien: Project Syborg.
Dark Horse Comics 1993
A general clones his troops and uses the brains of each to fuel his Super Soldiers Cyborgs.
In order for the SSC's to take orders, they are promised their brains will be returned to their cloned bodies and then allowed to live a peaceful life.
At the end of the story, it is revealed the general used the clone bodies as hosts for the xenomorph species. All the promised clone bodies were destroyed. There are thousands of surviving syborgs left without bodies. Unable to maintain their synthetic bodies they are slowly dying.
They seek revenge on the military.
To be continued....
well Ash and Bishop weren't completely human-like since they still had limited emotional range.
David was a prototype model but even David wasn't completely human-like
Call was the most human-like of the synthetics but she was from the distant future compared to Ash, Bishop and David.
Edit: I just remembered Vassili Rykov from AVP2 is a partial cyborg since he has a synthetic spine
In the age of over-population, a Fascist will arise and kill 2/3rds of life. OR science will save us all. Pay attention the wars erupting globally. it is Thanos collecting the stones. Pay attention to all of Elon Musks projects, they are all focused on defeating the population growth, including leaving earth.
"END GAME" was released in April 2019'. 7 months before COVID was even a rumor. NO major movies came out afterwards. NO summer blockbusters. No christmas family gems. HOW DID THEY KNOW?
Thor is the prince, who abdicated the throne when Odin dies. Aasgard is the British Empire. The king just died and the prince and his Valkyrian wife left the UK to move to the U.S.
There is a reason Infinity war was in Wakanda, a metaphor for Nigera, Africas most advanced, richest nation. Africa is the last Industrial revolution on earth, then we enter END GAME.
If you understand the characters, the MCU is real life.
CAP - Old WWII U.S.-christian. good. wont curse. wont kiss the only woman he loves. Fights Red skull (Hitler) and Hydra, the fascist side of socialist ideology.
Iron Man- Modern U.S. - Old, drunk, sex addict who just happens to be rich and funny and have the best weapons.
Hulk- Nuclear age - U.S. Military - created by a radiation bomb, when Hulk gets angry enough he punches the earth in half. (too easy)
Thor - British Empire -Son of Odin who conquered 9 realms (UK, Ireland, scots, Aussies, USA, S.Africa, Hong Kong, Thailand, India) then presented his throne as good (manifest destiny) Ragnarok is happening now.
Black Widow- Cold war Russian Intel - born and bred to be a spy, using sexuality as a weapon, first at odds with the USA then our great ally sharing intel strategies in CPU shadow wars.
Winter Soldier - WWII RUSSIA to cold war to NOW - Caps best friend as we fought Hitler together, then the cold war and the metal arm of Glasnost and power to the worker, then we re-unite during a time of Civil unrest in CAP AM III called "civil war" where the old US fights the modern US still thinking Russians evil communists like they haven't evolved or changed.
Hawkeye- the american mercenary - veterans of 3 Asian wars, highly skilled and specialized in hand to hand and sharp shooting - Navy Seal, Green Beret, Marine.
Age of Ultron, during the rise of A.I. we fought overseas and killed many civilians over throwing a fascist in BOSNIA named Slobodan Milosovich. This is Sekovia.
There is no mistake. If you watch the timelines understanding the cultural icon used to create each hero and their stories, you can track exactly what has occurred in our world going back to our invasion of the middle east before 9-11 in Iron Man 1. Iron man 2: Does no one see that the Mandarin is based on Osama Bin Laden and the conspiracy theory he was an actor named TIM payed to create those movies and take the blame?
I am blown away that comics in the 80's and 90's and Disney has used the MCU to exactly chronicle the Malthosian Population Bomb and NO ONE NOTICED IT.
We are in the infinity war. The Mind stone (internet) has shown it's power as Jarvis, Ultron and Vision battle for who wins the stone. Thanos is collecting them all. Is he XI Jin Ping or Bill Gates? Is he a hacker or Pro Athlete who sparks the rage? Does Elon or another scientist achieve Space travel and save us all?
THIS IS THE ONLY CONVERSATION WORTH HAVING. MAYBE one of you saves us all by spreading this truth and bringing the world together? Thanos is the idea that too much life will inhibit evolution and individual achievement. We now live in the generation of this as our population doubles every 60 years!! 15 Billion in 2080! "We are in the End Game Now"
I don't know...The synthetics in the Alien verse pretty much act like cyborgs. Bishop, Call, David, Ash all act very human.
I could see some sci-fi angles though:
Clone the best soldiers, then remove their brains and install them in cyborgs.... With a guarantee that the government will return their brains to their cloned bodies after their tour of duty.
Offer an old man/woman (Ripley) a new lease on life?
Rest in peace Koichi Sugiyama.
you shall be avenged.
so exited!
cant wait to see more of final wars goji!
o right im supposed to do something funny.
uuuuuhhhhh...............................hm......ah!
GODZILLA KICK AT 0:06 FORESHADOING GOJI DROP KICK????!!!!!!1!1!!!111!!!0-0
HECK YEAH DUDE
i like the kick Godzilla does at 0:06
Saw this on Godzilla’s Official Yt
(the Japanese one, I don’t think the English one has posted anything about it)
Finally, Hedorah is getting some more attention, it's interesting that they used the Final Wars designs. Can't wait to see it.
He was joking, guys.
I actually finished watching this movie weeks ago, very good movie although there are some plot threads are left to be desired mostly some much needed exposition to the sudden plot twists but i'll leave it at that
Its spelled Cthulhu, prounoucned either as "kah-Thoo-loo or Caw-thoo-Loo or kah-too-loo or even rarer hoo-hoo-loo (but I think that was an error on the actor's part in the 80's twilight zone)"
Also I got some stuff to say: scified.com/chat
Ive seen more, check out scified.com/chat There’s some real records.
I agree with this overall it’s well thought out
holy shoot quadruple post!
anyways i would like for them to have solo movies, maybe similar to ROM for Mothra (but not a straight up remake)
I can’t tell if that’s a spam bot… I mean it sounds like one
monsterzero9
I’m not sure you speeled that right
SALUTE!
daaa-da-daa-da-dwa-daaaaaaaaa!!!-daa-da-daa-da-dwa-daaaaaaaaaa!!!!
da-da-daaa!-da-da-daaaaaaa!!! daaa-da-daa-da-dwa-daaaaaaaaa!!!
derp.
That actually makes sense. I'm surprised that I never made that connection before. I mean that I kinda knew that the Titans had some sort of connection to the mythologies of different cultures from around the world, but like, damn, dude. Good job. and to you to, goji. That's pretty cool.
"similar to the Zerg, Tyrranid, and the Flood"
I am not sure we will EVER see the Xenomorph in this way, maybe they could do, but i DOUBT the TV Series would touch upon this..... I think SHOULD they take such a Route you have to be Careful.... because making them like the TYRANIDS would Evolve them but you also could END UP with them being just like Starship Troopers... if its DONE in a Interesting way and Executed Well... maybe it could Work?
If its NOT Executed Well or done in a Interesting way then i think we could have something that could be a BIT too Comic like...... but saying that there is a MARKET for that.
so it depends on WHAT kind of Market they want to go for, and with DISNEY at the Helm you would think there is more Chance of seeing the Xenomorph Expanded in such a way than there would have been UNDER 20TH CENTURY FOX.
Well in just over 6 Months (Alien Day 2022) i think we may have a BETTER IDEA about where the TV Show and Future of the Franchise will be Heading.
I have NOTICED that some Fans are Hopeful it will SHOW US something about Ripley's History.... her Parents? Grand Parents? And that we will see a QUEEN.
I think anyone Expecting either are IN for a Disappointment.
The Prequels had Placed the Xenomorph as NOT being a MAIN ASPECT... for it is just a Creation by someone that is INTENDED to Destroy and Cause Horror to Mankind... as RS felt the more IMPORTANT thing was to LOOK at WHO would Create such a thing and WHY?
But before the Prequels we know Ridley Scott saw the Xenomorph as merely being some Organism Created to be used as Bio-logical Warfare.
Some Fans are more a FAN of what JC had in MIND which would be the Xenomorph are a Alien Species that Inhabit a World that the Space Jockey her merely came Across and Attempted to TAKE AWAY and USE for some Nefarious Purpose but they FELL VICTIM to the Xenomorph just as the W-Y (and USM) keep doing in the Franchise.
As to HOW and WHAT the TV Series will SHOW about the Xenomorph is UNCLEAR... but i Suspect it will be SHOWN to be a Organism that the Space Jockey/Engineers had Created or that had EVOLVED from their Experiments....
Will it INDICATE that the Xenomorph is a Ancient Species? who knows... as FAR as being something that was NOT CREATED... i am NOT sure.... I Suspect we are more likely to FOLLOW something similar to Prometheus/Alien Covenant.
Only it may Indicate the Xenomorph that is Encountered will OUT DATE the One from the Prequels and the Franchise.
“To get from A-Z you do-not have to GO were David is going!”
Not sure Thoughts_Dreams if you was meant to Comment on another Thread? As i dont Recall mentioning this on this Topic.
In Context to the TV Series... i Wonder as to HOW MUCH they are going to Respect the Prequels? Because it seems that THIS TV SHOW will be SET prior to the Prequels... but it could be SET AFTER the Prologue between Weyland and David.
The Premise seems to be that it would ATTEMPT to Address the GULF between the Mega Rich Corps, and the Common Working Class and to SHOW that the Rich Guys dont GIVE TWO HOOTS about the Lower Class....
It will also DEAL with TWO THREATS.....
One from the FUTURE (A.I) and One from the Ancient Past (Engineers? Xenomorph?).
So as it seems likely that the TV Show will be in the Time-Line of 25-50 Years from the TED TALK 2023 we do-not know HOW MUCH will be about David and Peter Weyland.... they may CAST NEW Actors or they may ONLY have a Few Mentions of them.... or they MAY even NOT Reference them at all.
All we can be SURE about is that it will Reference A.I as a Problem/Threat, and then EVENTUALLY we will Slowly get to Face the Xenomorph......
And that the TV Show will be VERY Action Orientated. And it Promises to Deliver some Good Special Effects.
Oh and that it will be SET in the NOT too DISTANT Future and Prior to the Prequels.... and a Majority of it will take PLACE on Earth....
THIS is my Concern.... Xenomorphs and Engineers on Earth like Prior to 2180 never-mind prior to 2090 would be well SILLY as it SURELY will Conflict the Franchise... which is WHY i Suspect it may be a SOFT REBOOT.
You need to make video clips for some kind of commercial or thriller!!! You've got a lot of imagination. That's cool.
i'd like a griffin-esque please and thank you
i like griffins a lot

The earlier alien comics would be strongly connected to the Earth War series and mention by other characters how the earth was slowly brought back under human control.
New technologies were developed to deal with the xenomorphs, (PowerArmor, Plasma Weapons, and Flying APCs) however the xenomorphs put up a heavy resistance so humanity lost a lot of people in their efforts to reclaim earth; it took them roughly 5 years.
