With regard to what happened to Shaw, the prologue doesn't really give much away, although it does seem to be bridging the gap more between Alien and Prometheus. I would assume the most obvious implication is that if David is releasing a stack of xenomorph eggs on the Engineers' home planet, there’s no real reason for him to spare her.

I don't think it's the eggs- those are the black goo containers do you think david killed shaw? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cult Icon Posted April 30, 2017 Share Posted April 30, 2017 I wonder how accurate the promotional X-rays from the previous page are...it depicts the entire crew being infected, and the location/creatures vary. So far there seems to be 2 creatures (one that bursts out of the body in full, caused by inhaling spores) and then the conventional xenomorph (from the face-hugger) There is also a mothership in orbit, so I presume that the story continues there. From what I recall, the Prometheus trailer was literally a "greatest hits" collection of the actual film and spoilered a great deal. The new movie is either rather sparse/dark like Alien or they are intentionally keeping the other set pieces under wraps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cult Icon Posted May 6, 2017 Share Posted May 6, 2017 This ongoing comic book series has some information about the future path for Aliens http://viewcomic.com/aliens-defiance-06-of-12-2016/ It's clear that they re-designed the alien (from face-hugger) from the little tadpole to a four legged, violent creature.

Cult Icon Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 Awesome footage! the reviews largely conclude that this movie is better than Prometheus- which I also liked. It also centers on David much more, and go into explaining why he behaved as he did in the first movie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cult Icon Posted May 10, 2017 Share Posted May 10, 2017 Oh wow!!! the Engineer did speak= they should have kept it in the movie what if Scott ends all his films with David in the Space Jockey costume at the beginning of Alien ? wouldn't that be rad?
