My guess is that the guy in the chair is a traitor (note his deadpan expression despite the circumstances) perhaps an android who deliberately attempts to deliver a xenomorph specimen or more to earth, either by going rogue like David or as per company instructions.
"I'm sure they build more than one Narcissus "class" of escape ships"
This is what I was about to say. The Narcissus-class shuttles seem to be a very reliable starcraft so it would make sense that they continued to use its design for future shuttlecrafts. I mean in real life we still have in service Vietnam Era bombers.
You have pique my curiosity and now you have my attention
After the last couple of flops, is it wise to make another MCU movie? These movies haven't been a blockbuster since Endgame
Please be a non-human host, if this is supposed to be the new drone design then this series has no chance!
Indeed that is our own exclusive Alien: Analects video! I've been meaning to resurrect those videos for some time. Brings back so many fond memories.
The design cues are definitely different with this Xeno compared to Kane's Son / Big Chap. I concur, it likely could be a Xenomorph born from a non-human host. Thanks for sharing this, I'll get it front paged! Been swamped with a million things lately but with the series coming up I'm going to make time to get more Alien: Earth content out!
Huh. This thread took a turn.
I'm working on reviving the podcast in a "blogcast" form, rocking it solo. Hoping to get the first episode rolling in a few weeks.
Yep this game already flopped hard, its already 50% off on Steam
I still hate the JPIII Spinosaurus, so I am glad its getting retconned
Marvel of course tries to suck the oxygen out of everything in their pursuit of profit, but I’m actually enjoying Aliens vs Avengers and find the story rather refreshing in its depiction of a rapidly shrinking group of meta-humans who are faced with a threat they have no power to overcome. When it comes to comics, one can never expect a perfect working in of all the great ideas in either intellectual product but (and thankfully for this) we are sesgetting a greatly reduced Marvel universe and don’t have to worry about; ‘what about Galactus? What about the Watchers? Where is Asgard while Earth is being overrun? Such questions really have no place in a story like Aliens vs Avengers and because we are seeing a much smaller universe where meta-humans exist we have real drama and cost.(boy, do we have cost! Everyone is dropping like flies in this tale and I’m caught up in the ride) It happens so rarely that it’s easy to dismiss but when a writer and artist have respect for the properties involved they can craft a fine tale. Good story telling can rise above what is generally served to the public and I’m enjoying the meal.

I agree that it just seems to complicate everything and Alvarez is simply musing. Personally, I find the need to explain EVERYTHING a wrong headed creative effort best left alone. I will say however, that Jonesy’ explanation is the only way that this would work for me if it ever became cannon. I must say that I find the idea of a sequel to Alien: Romulus rather exiting and would certainly welcome it. Alien is charting new territory and everyone involved is dedicated to delivering the best and most imaginative stories. -Well thought out stories that don’t seem to be a simple cash grab.
Every other major science fiction franchise has grown rather long in the tooth and seem to lack the fire of a creative spark. (I would single out the Planet of the Apes franchise for rebooting and rising like a Phoenix to thrill us with an amazing example of reworking the very concept of the franchise and giving us something new and brilliant)
Prometheus does something that no other franchise does, in that it opens the series up expanding on the whole cosmic sweep of the promise of a mysterious universe that holds more than we could ever realize.
we now see that the Alien is but a small piece of the puzzle and that the Engineers are an advanced race capable of biological and technological feats that could make them masters of the universe. (Or perhaps, gardeners is a more appropriate term)
Just my opinion, but I feel the Space Jockeys and the Engineers are NOT the same race because the alien derelict and the space jockey within appear to have been there for perhaps a million years or more. This of course, leads to the question; if they are not of the same race, where did the Engineers come from? Are they bioengineered from others stock? (Mankind?)
And of course, we also have to explain why then seemed intent on destroying earth, and what would prompt such a course of action.
In my view, Prometheus is a brilliant first movie in a trilogy that has enormous room to expand on the entire alien franchise, raising it up to potential heights that no other sci-fi franchise has even attempted before.
what the future holds for this franchise we will have to wait and see, but the potential is THERE and we only need someone with a vision to bring us the story that will turn everything on its head and amaze us all.
Good to know a sequel is already starting to work. We maybe able to get another movie in 2027. ^ ^
I think Ripley never really woke up during the whole Alien to Romulus timeline. She was never the Company's priority. The company probably pick up Narcissus first and dock it in Romulus Station, hoping to find some clues about the whole incident, but then they found Big Chap so they just left Ripley there continue sleeping lol.
just makes me want to watch it again , and see with my own eyes
I believe you’re absolutely right in saying that all the answers were there and that we missed something!!
I also like your statement about it not making sense that LV223 seemed to be a place of worship and reverence for the Alien life form and then we learn that the plane was to go to Earth and destroy All life there.
It seems to me that the obvious answer is that there are TWO groups of Engineers and that LV223 was conquered by the second group who then learned of Earth and were interrupted before they could implement their plan.
i looking forward ...to see it.
Awesome trailer, the premise reminds me of what I was going for my Camp Cretaceous Redux plot for Isla Muertes
The movie appears to be "V" (2009), S01E01 Pilot, V for Visitors.
Honestly? Maybe it was a good thing that Blomkamp's movie didn't get made, especially with the new plot point that you just unveiled.
City lights are seen from space.
Is part of the planet supposed to be "on fire" or are those meant to be lights seen from space in the Earth reflection?
teaser looks great so far
now I am worried about the story. Hope it is good. :p
Not bad.
From what I can tell, it's the POV of someone running through the corridor with facehuggers crawling all over them.
And what the hell is going on here?

Typical classic Alien poster. Minimalistic with a terrifying tagline. Love it!
I'm glad to know this rumor turned out to be false.
While not an immersion-breaking aspect, it did look odd. Even the stiff puppet from Alien 3 (over 30 years ago) looked more convincing. It's admirable that Fede acknowledged the criticism and decided to improve it for the home release (in stores now! $$$)
Still wished they'd use a completely new (i.e different actor) android face in Romulus to decrease the ridiculous amount of fan service throughout the film but that's a different topic.
Interesting, I like the music too and how it gives an atmosphere.
Xenotaris , yes watch it , you will not be disappointed
Been watching since it aired and enjoying the latest season right now - agreed it is a phenomenal series! Very pleased to know the third and fourth seasons have been greenlit!
Well I think since the Deacon is closely related to the xenomorph, both sharing similiar anatomies and biological traits. I doubt the deacon would make a suitable host since both are beings created directly from the black goo.
I think David merely made a copy of the engineer's xenomorphs. The Alien RPG refers to David's recreation as the Praetomorph.
