MemberFacehuggerDec-31-2016 9:29 PMWe've really missed an opportunity with the shower seen to actually fill in some gaps. Here's what I had to ask:
How many of them are this blissfully ignorant of the Captain's chest burster event?
Why are ANY OF THEM this blissfully ignorant of the Captain's chest burster event?
Who kept this many this ignorant this long?
Safe? Of course he isn't safe, but he's good!

MemberFacehuggerJan-01-2017 4:58 AMDifficult to draw too many conclusions based on a trailer - we don't know the sequence of events . . .
Although it does seem to be a scene of showering after some event in a state of relief . . . You'd (well I would be, for sure) probably find sex the last thing on your mind if you knew one of those things was on your tail. However, if you'd just escaped a near death experience the need to reproduce could well be more 'pressing' shall we say ;)
My guess is they thought the danger had gone but . . .

MemberFacehuggerJan-01-2017 6:07 AMExactly. They thought they were safe, but some time had passed since the event, given the size of the Xeno. They didn't know about the Captain. It's really fascinating what that implies.
Safe? Of course he isn't safe, but he's good!

MemberFacehuggerJan-01-2017 8:19 AMIndeed . . . but maybe this one didn't come from the Captain?!? ;)

MemberFacehuggerJan-01-2017 8:34 AMThat's a terrifying thought.

MemberFacehuggerJan-01-2017 9:35 AMWell played! Though that feels unlikely

MemberFacehuggerJan-01-2017 10:53 AMI feel like this could be toward the end of the film. These are the last two survivors and they think they are safe and away and relaxing from the stress of the horror, and then.....so they aren't IGNORANT of the threat, they just think it's passed and they think they've gotten away

MemberFacehuggerJan-01-2017 11:23 AMThat's a great gotcha moment! Talk about ending on a Downer!

MemberTrilobiteJan-01-2017 11:38 AMIf it's going to end there they need to do something that no one will expect- something that will make the audience squirm in their chairs. Something gruesome that may actually offend. Bring it, Mr Scott. Anything else would be an eye rolling shower/horror scene we have all senn before.

MemberFacehuggerJan-01-2017 11:42 AMThere is that. That's a huge possibility for Eww. Alan Dean Foster's Alien 3 novel did include Xeno rape in order to produce a queen.
