MemberChestbursterMay-31-2017 2:18 PMHi guys, i just joined this website a few days ago so this is my first post.
So I was wondering, how did the eggs get on the juggernaut ship in alien covanant if there was no queen. I was also noticing that for alien isolation. Do you guys think that its possible that the queen will be eliminated from the franchise?
Alien covanant has already wiped out AVP from the series ( thank god) so I think its possible they might take out the queen concept as well.
this could be good or bad. on one hand, it would allow the concept of eggmorphing to apear in a canonical film witch I think is way cooler and scarier than the queen, but on the other hand, It would disreagard almost all of the movie Aliens.
Witch would you rather have in the series, eggmorphing or the queen, and do you think that the queen is in any danger of being erased from the series?

MemberNeomorphJun-01-2017 2:31 AMid say no. by the way RS is going it seems there will be multiple strands of the mutagen so the possibility of different variations of the creatures so the queen remains a possibility. plus ridley liked the queen, it just wasn't the way he wouldv gone had he done more alien films at the time. he was more into morphing as his directors cut shows

MemberFacehuggerJun-01-2017 10:33 AMthe queen was a cool one off in a great action film but for me give me mutation and egg morphing it carries much more dramatic weight,.....not just the visual spectacle of seeing her, but that really all she does anymore is look cool. Plus having a queen makes the xenomorphs (although i prefer to call them the alien species) a hive species and reduces their alien-ness they are easier to understand and relate to if they are a hive species and thus far less terrifying. give me ancient cosmic mutations and morphing and leave the organisms alien...not just in name but in every adjective used to describe them

It explained perfectly where the eggs came from.
