Neomorph Alien: Romulus ForumA traitor? Or quarantine procedure?

Which doesn't explain the eggs they came from obviously. So maybe the egg morphing narrative is followed, created pods, or both!

Neomorph Alien: Romulus ForumA traitor? Or quarantine procedure?

I wouldn't exclude some big reveal like a queen at the end of the film considering Romulus takes places between the first two films and is possible and primarily tied to them to a certain extent. It looked like one facehugger (or maybe it was all of them) had a different appearance in the trailer. Maybe that one, or one randomly if they're all the same, injects a queen embryo.

They did that in Alien Covenant but yes, I always liked the hidden skull face. Makes the xenomorph scarier and a personification of death. Likely this was engineered into them for psychological warfare if they were bioweapons.

That said, it would be cool if this movie would show a Preatorian (a proto-Queen)

I always believed the xenomorphs would initially use Eggmorphing to create a starter nest. Then when certain environmental conditions are met a genetic marker would trigger within the xenomorphs which one would naturally develop into a Queen

I think they mean the Giger Skull in the Alien head crest, like the original Xenomorph had a human-like skull behind the smooth dome if you looked at it a certain way. Makes the Alien even scarier.

MonsterZeroAlien: Romulus ForumDid you notice the Battle Damaged Xenomorph?

With all those facehuggers running around there must be dozens of Xenomorphs on the station? Probably half the stations crew were burst.

I can't imagine the original 'Big Chap' surviving. They must of had time to research and produce the facehuggers. If Big Chap woke up and killed the stations crew...then where did all the facehuggers come from? Maybe it egg morphed the crew?

Just wondering if there will be classic egg pods?

Did they just replicate the facehuggers without pods? Lab grown.

Don't you need a queen for eggs? Or facehuggers?

Created Pods like David maybe..

I also made my own VHS box edit that I uploaded on my Instagram a couple of days ago. I didn't upload it here, but here it is.

No, I didn't print it.

JonesyAlien: Romulus ForumPrometheus vs. Alien: Romulus - Which teaser trailer was better?

Yes I agree. And it's a perfect time to watch Resurrection on a Easter weekend. :D

Yeah I can definitely see that scenario happen! Those swarms of (maybe reverse-engineered judging by the new design) facehuggers looked nasty in the teaser.

 I fully, wholeheartedly and without any doubt support your decision Chris! Sure it has some uh.. "minor" issues like the dialogue sometimes but on the other hand notice how the camera angles are beautifully shot, impressive animatronics and its unique take on Ripley, also showcasing Weaver's acting range.

At the very least it stands out in the series as its own thing, for the better or worse.

Alien Resurrection has grown on me over the years, still my least favorite of the Alien series by far, but it has its moments. I should give it a rewatch this weekend as well haha.

ChrisAlien: Romulus Forum"Quit Griping!" Part 2 WARNING POTENTIAL Romulus spoilers

In response to the OP, I think it’s highly plausible that WY could find and extract Big Chap given the last known Nostromo coordinates, scanning technology, etc... the Xenomorph / Black Goo is their primary focus, investing over a Trillion dollars in research for it. You bet they're going to comb every inch of space they can to find their next meal ticket. Ripley on the other hand, was simply a blue collar worker, they had no interest in recovering her whatsoever, they probably saw her pod floating through space and ignored her, assuming it would tie up a loose end. 

So for that argument, I'm not overly concerned about the likelihood of finding Big Chap in space.

As for the Hyperdyne Systems Android, I suspect it's either a flashback sequence OR a busted up version found and brought back online in the Romulus station. Perhaps when they do, the Android warns them of the outbreak which occurred or whatever happened to cause the station to be abandoned.

My initial concerns were in response to the younger crew, but after watching the teaser, I don't have such a concern anymore, I'm more optimistic now than I was a year ago, for sure.

ChrisAlien: Romulus ForumDirector confirms what the title Romulus means in Alien: Romulus

I wouldn't say it isn't connected at all, but just not directly to Romulus. Which means we'll likely have no reference of the "Prodigy Corporation" in Romulus, but I'm sure there will be Weyland-Yutani references in the show.

I definitely think it's another instance of someone being trapped in a room (with Facehuggers I bet) and the remaining crew being like "nu uh we gotta close the door". Definitely.

CosmicShrimpsGodzilla (Toho) NewsGiveaway: Win 2 FREE tickets to this year's Godzilla convention G-Fest 2024!

1. I was about 8 years old. Someone had moved into the upstairs of our apartment at that time. He knew my mom and were friends for a long time. I’d go upstairs and see all of these Godzilla posters on the walls and a huge stack of Godzilla DVD’s. I asked him if I could watch one and he’s like “Sure thing! You can watch them all.” I picked out my first Godzilla movie, which was Destroy All Monsters. And the obsession for Godzilla began. 

2. My favorite TOHO Godzilla film is Godzilla Minus One. It was an incredible film and it was an emotional rollercoaster. Godzilla was amazing in that film and it definitely deserved that Oscar win. 

3. My favorite Monsterverse film is Godzilla King Of The Monsters. I loved seeing the clash of all four TOHO kaiju. Plus I’m a big Mothra fan and was excited to see her in the film.

I'm thinking things will wake up around here when we have a full trailer. Here's to hoping. Since this isn't a sequel to any other movie and teaser is literally that, a teaser. There's just isn't much to sink into with it right now. I have mixed feelings about the teaser but gotta say they have done well In keeping much of the movie a mystery. 

If I had to guess come Alien day we'll get a full trailer

I've heard pretty much the opposite. That they did indeed CGI Ian Holm. I have literally 0 issue with another twitchy A/2... just really don't want to see CGI Ian Holm. I really wish Hollywood and Disney especially would get over that.

I rewatch Alien Resurrection today lol and I enjoy it. And it comes to my mind that Ripley has become more affectionate to the Xenomorph and Android (Call), while calling the human as real "monster".
