OH DEAR................

With Respect some will like it, but for me this is the PROBLEM i have with the Novels and Comics is a lack of Continuity with the Movies....

Especially when they SAY they are Canon....

I have NO PROBLEM with a Anthology Series of Books or TV Series that touches on Characters as LONG as they PAY attention to the Franchise....

so my ISSUE here is that we will Focus on a Younger Vasquez (which is Fine) but that this Younger Version has Encountered Xenomorphs!!!   and YET in ALIENS it seems that NONE of them have seen anything like it before.

But i guess she had a Memory Wiped or something.... like the LAME Excuse for some Novels where Ripley was up to all SORTS of SHENANIGANS.... during her 57 Years in Supposed Hyper Sleep on the Narcissus....

Because the Writers cant think or WONT RISK giving us a Fresh Story that does-not have any Previous Characters.

It just comes to LAZY thinking and Oh Coincidence...

Now they could have had it where she Encounters something that has been Infected with the Black Goo....

And so we have Humans turned into like this...

But they just CANT go and do a ALIEN/ALIENS Story without having the Vanilla-Morph as i call them..... No Problem with that, just mainly having it TIE into a Story with Vasquez!

How many more of the Sulaco Crew have had Encounters with the Xenomorph and Forgot about it?  These also then BEG the Question regarding as to WHY they could NOT Obtain any Xenomorphs between ALIENS and ALIEN R!

You could do it i Guess.... say if the Outpost/Planet gets Destroyed....

But i think that having a Story about someone from ALIENS or even ALIEN who Encounter the Xenomorph prior to ALIEN/ALIENS is just DUMB and LAZY... 

Mainly due to the Contradiction.... but this is ONLY just my Opinion.

NOW if the Story was about her Parents and she was ONLY say 3-4 Years Old in this Story then YEAH i could accept that... but for her to be what? 20 or so... Nah!

noice

I fore one would love to know more about the yautja culture, like how Dark Horse handle them

Cool, I hope its a good book. The cover art doesn't do Vasquez justice though unless that is one of her children on the front cover

HinikunaGoji,

Yeah, that would be a terrific locale for Mothra. Imagine thick fog, oddly shaped mountains and a looming blue glow.

Also, if Godzilla goes to Paris, they need to have him fight a robotic snail. Not sure why, but it feels appropriate for some reason...

In some ways I kind of don't want Godzilla to go to Tokyo in the MonsterVerse. 

Mainly because it would be kind of funny if, out of all the cities, Tokyo managed to actually stay unharmed in this series and also because we've seen Godzilla in Tokyo dozens of times throughout the series. Obviously Tokyo is Godzilla's main city, but I feel like there's only so many times we can see him destroy the same city over and over again before it starts feeling a bit repetitive. I wouldn't be against Godzilla going to Tokyo in the MonsterVerse, but personally I think it would be more interesting to see him in locations he hasn't been to yet (or locations that he's only been to a few times).

It'll probably focus on the aftermath of G'14, with the world coming to terms with what happened during the events of the film and the fact that giant monsters exist. I can see them bridging the gaps between G'14 and KOTM, giving more details about what happened in between those films, with Monarch tracking Godzilla, discovering the locations of other Titans, and possibly dealing with smaller scale incidents involving other monsters. I could even see them including the events of Godzilla: Aftershock, showing it from a different perspective (which would help to include larger scale monster fights, without having to retcon what was established in KOTM).

Also Tokyo it's a classic and  would be cool to see how it would work with the monsterverse

"Vary Ambiguous"

I mean Very lol....

So as FAR again as the Deacon... i can ONLY assume its Origins are from the Strain of Goo that was in the Temple Complex we see in Prometheus, and so the Alien Covenant Strain is Different.

And so its likely in the RPG (i have not Read it yet) at some Point a Ship does go to LV-223 to Bring Back some of the Black Goo.....

Yeah the Deacon was a Mystery in Prometheus on that was Vary Ambiguous.  We saw the One at the END of the Movie but this to me was showing the Pathogen in those Urns had Infected a Human Egg-Cell which lead to the Creation of something with more DNA of the Pathogen, mixed with Human DNA.

The Mural to me indicated the URNS in that Room had the DNA of the Creature from the MURAL the other Deacon.

The Origin of this Mural Organism is OPEN to debate... my Interpretation was the Engineers had Encountered a Organism they NEVER had Created and USED their Creation Tool (GOO) to Extract its DNA and Create Many Hybrids of this... the Deacon in the Mural being ONE such Hybrid and the Neomorphs being a Off-Shoot of another Hybrid.

I think its Logical to Assume that Each of the Temple Mounds had a Different Variant of Experiments/Black Goo.

But there have been other Interpretations of Prometheus... i think that the Earlier Drafts give more Clues.... with these we are Indicated the Engineers had Discovered something they had Attempted to Re-Engineer into Numerous Variants using their Scarab DNA Harvesters.

It will be INTERESTING to see if the RPG will Explore as to WHAT was in the FRESCO ;)

As FAR as the Engineers i would keep them a Mystery.... i think some Fans get Caught up too much in the LV-223 Kind and thinking that the Engineers are just Interested in Creating Horrors and Unleash them on the Galaxy.

What we had in ALIEN would be kind of like say we Discover a Human Ship on a World that has either Nukes or some Bio-Weapon on-board and the Pilots have been Poisoned/Killed by their Cargo....

Discovering as to (1) WHY these Humans had Created their Weapon and HOW, would be ONE thing to Explore!

But Once thats DONE... its the (2) WHY would they do so and WHO are they Intending to USE it on!

And Prometheus basically chose to cover (2) but was Vague... but my Point with the Engineers in Context to the Human Ship Analogy.... is there is MORE to Humans and our Agenda, History than just HOW/WHY/WHEN we Created a Weapon that we LOADED on a Ship to SEND to some Place.

And so the Engineers are Creators and THIS seems their Main Motive, but also in ADVANCING their Own Kind..... and so the Creation of Horrors/Bio-Weapons is NOT the Main thing about them.  But Exploring them in this way is NOT what seems to Please the Fans.... so would want to see more about the LV-223 Engineers and their Weapons.

I guess its like the Predators (Yautja)  they must have some History, Culture there is more to them than just HUNTING for SKULLS but maybe thats a Aspect thats BEST left to Mystery and so i think the same is BEST with the Engineers.

New york would be cool but idk

Ok thanks for the info

what else would be interssteing is seeing him in the tianzi mountains, i know its not a city but it could be cool

You can leave a reply! Im still new here on Scified.

I would love to see him in Chongqing. There's very interesting terrain and sprawling skyscrapers of varied forms (to smash). It is not too far from MV Mothra's temple, so I think it can fit in the lore nicely. Also, it has never been in any of these tentpole films and remains unseen to the majority of the non-sino-audience.

hello,

i am Aramis Thandeka, from india to share some thoughts with you all, i hope you like it

BigDave - They have kept the Engineers pretty mysterious in the RPG so far. I assume its because they want to leave them open for future movies to expand on. I too would love to see Ridley finish the Prometheus arc and add more to the Engineer mythos. It has a lot of potential.

And that IS a deacon on the cover. I won't be spoilery, but lets just say you'd never be able to guess how they come into the story. Its super weird, but I like it.

Xenotaris - Yeah, I'm excited about the Space Trucker book, too. And the one-shots in the upcoming books.

He could also go to Pyongyang, just for fun..

Yeah, Prometheus was leagues better than the first AVP movie. I love the idea of AVP but the way it was handled by Paul W. S. Anderson, almost ruined the idea of AVP for me.

I'll have to start listening to this podcast when I am not busy with my AVPU fan-fiction

Godzilla in Paris would be pretty interesting.

It may be a somewhat generic choice, but I would love to see Godzilla go to New York again, since we've never had a full proper Godzilla movie that takes place there. He briefly showed up in New York for a couple of seconds in Destroy All Monsters, we had the 1998 film (which most fans don't really consider a true Godzilla movie) and Rodan went there briefly in Final Wars and Singular Point, but we've never gotten a movie where Godzilla fights another monster there. Considering how many times we've seen Godzilla destroy Tokyo, I feel like he should have another chance in New York.

The other city that I would like to see Godzilla in would probably be Seattle, since we've never actually seen him there, aside from a couple of video games.

For real!

YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!

Id like to see Goji end up in Seoul maybe, or Paris mainly because he would have taken down down both the tokyo tower and effiel tower

HinikunaGoji,
Agreed 110%.
Godzilla sending them into hibernation was such an unfortunate creative walk back. Instead of seeing a world trying to co-exist with monsters we went back to a play-it-safe scenario. 

HinikunaGoji

I think the idea was that releasing certain Titans would help the world, however there were too many Titans that were woken up during the events of KOTM and in Godzilla Dominion they were starting to get into conflict with each other (such as Behemoth and Amhuluk battling over territory) and humanity (such as Scylla attacking the military and trying to feed on nuclear weapons) to the point that they could potentially cause more damage to the world in the process. So Godzilla ordered them to rest for the time being because he was tired of constantly having to deal with them and the trouble some of them were causing. Godzilla probably only wanted to wake them at times where they were needed, which could explain why they were dormant before the events of KOTM.

I just want to say that Dominion causes huge problems for me for some reason. 
Wasnt the point of KOTM that releasing the titans helped the world, so why get rid of them? 

its like retconning

 If you can't see some of this text then mark it and you'll see, not sure why it happens.

The reason Godzilla didn't send the other Titans after Mechagodzilla was sort of explained in Godzilla Dominion. Godzilla ordered the other Titans to go into hibernation because they were constantly getting into conflict with each other and humanity and potentially posed a threat to the world. Plus, due to the fact that Mechagodzilla was being controlled by Ghidorah's brain (in a way being a reincarnation of him) Godzilla probably viewed it as a continuation of his personal rivalry with Ghidorah. 

As far as Godzilla not sending them after Kong, again it wasn't their fight. Godzilla's rivalry with Kong was a remnant of the ancient war between their two species, presumably the other titans had no part in that rivalry.

Well in the prequel graphic novel, he basically forces the other titans into the hollow earth

Yeah lol the Crash Part is just because my PC is 15 Years Old and only has 2GB RAM lol

When i did a Estimate and Calculations a few Years back i came to a 85-90ft Height for the Cargo Hold.  If i Recall when looking where the Cargo Hold/Pilot Chamber would be Fitted the Derelict lacked about 20-25ft in Height to FIT the BOTH inside...

But your work is VERY Accurate.... its a Shame we NEVER got like a HAINES like Manual for the Ships in the Franchise it would be GREAT to see someone do a Complete Schematic of the Derelict.

QuinnTKO

Your welcome, ALIEN is one of my favorite franchises

But I would like to see that fight if it happened, and if not he should have killed her.

These all look cool and thanks for answering my question Xenotaris

This is the Gorilla-Alien from NECA based on the old kenner toy

Nice, that clears up a lot for me thanks!

Gojira Forces (Lim Chen Xi)

Thank You :)

Thats awesome!! What is that design?
