The perfect organism

the perfect organism

*is just a good predator like the thousands of good predators we already have here on earth*

?

If the Alien is so perfect, why doesn't it have any eyes?

in space no one can hear you see

first movie makes the Alien out to be nearly invincible, has unknown capabilities

Aliens makes them bugs with a hive mentality that explode after being shot

eyes are the weakest point on any predator.

be made of acid in a hardened shell

you know what i really need? some soft tissue bridging the two materials, preferably right near where the brain likely is

It's not "just" a good predator, if a single xeno landed on earth then we're all dead. That's made perfectly clear in every film with a xenomorph in it.

if ridley hadn't fucked up the space jockeys we might've gotten some more interesting alien kino on a planet where they are actually part of the ecosystem.

first movie has truckers being pushed into failure by a deceptive machine

second movie is a squad of hardened warriors armed to the teeth

such nonsense mirite

James Cameron was hot off Rambo 2 which is a piece of shit with laughable action movie and wanted to work on Aliens, so naturally the xenos get turned into generic action movie mooks/mindless insects to shoot up.

a metaphor for the samurai?

Cameron is a hack. simple as

it has eyes but you dont see them
so you dont know where it is looking at

engineers have a system where the recently dead are used to birth xenomorphs

xenos are strapped into big turbines and coaxed into pushing them until they expire or become a queen

all engineer society is based upon xenomorph power generation

all their ships run on batteries charged by xeno-power back home

*perfect sexual organism

I always liked the idea that the Xenos reproduction via face hugger and inheriting traits means the ones we see are an amalgum of all sub species of the Xeno that survives and replaces the other as its new hybrid adaptions from species to species make it more dangerous. Human born Xenos should be more intelligent and walk upright more often while the rest crawl like bugs. The Space Jockey born Xenos should be double the size of the human ones.

first movie makes the Alien out to be nearly invincible

It's amazing you keep headcanoning this. It was never invincible not even hard to hurt or kill. They handicapped themselves and didn't use their guns because they didn't want to damage their expensive ship. Then the creature was being protected by the secret agent Ash. Ripley is easily able to penetrate its pathetic exoskeleton with a gas powered harpoon gun.

Lol no, a girl without training, never touched a gun BTFO'd 30 aliens with ease. Auto-aim gun, baby.

The real damn shame is ridley has had an idea for the alien origin since the first movie that is far more interesting than anything we got.
The aliens were an ancient advanced technological race that were highly intelligent.
The alien on the ship is just feral and terrified and trying to assimilate the crew on instinct.

didn't use their guns because they didn't want to damage their expensive ship

this is one of the stupidest things i've ever heard. Better to assume they didn't have guns.

i'd let her facehug me if you know what i mean
(i want her to shit into my mouth)

ah but yet another space puma lurking in airducts is waaay more interesting

That's stupid and unfit for a movie made for entertainment. Write a comic book for your dumb ideas

See? Case closed. We can only do exactly what already sold tickets over and over until the end of time.

The entertainment industry is dead. Long live the entertainment industry.

Sounds like the movie section 8.
I think they just simply should not have been explained. less focus on the past, more on the present.

She's very smoll.

first movie makes the Alien out to be nearly invincible, has unknown capabilities

No it doesn’t. It’s basically the same thing that would happen if you locked a tiger in a warehouse with a handful of Amazon employees, that doesn’t mean the tiger is invincible, they just don’t have the means to deal with it.

The Colonial Marines are running around with state-of-the-art weaponry with armor piercing rounds and shit, and they still get the shit kicked out of them. You guys have let decades of toys, comic books, and video games distort your memory of Aliens being some shoot-em-up, but the whole point is that the Marines go in thinking it’s going to be a sweep up, only to get their asses handed to them, and spend the rest of the movie in a low panic because they too are not equipped to deal with what’s going on.

Zero explanation is basically what we got until covenant and all that gave us was bug hunts till the end of time.

More like they spent years seething that the alien is only popular because of the space marines in Aliens, then hyping up the first movie as if it's some 15/10 masterpiece and the xenomorph an unkillable, all knowing, all seeing God-being that needs a dozen movies of it easily taking over manking while remaining completely mysterious yet still so interesting, etc. It's pure Ridley-wank.

serious answer: he don't need them
real answer: so he can resist titty magic

if their blood is acid, why doesn't it melt through their flesh?

Why doesn't your stomach acid melt through you?

hardened marines enter a hive

five minutes later 80% of them are dead and the braggart is screaming "game over man game over!"

The problem with Aliens is that they kill all the expendable characters in the first two battles. Ripley is left with mama bear plot armor and shoots up the rest of the hive and beats up the queen with a forklift.

The aliens are called Xenomorphs.
What are the predators called?

They can both be called Xenomorph. It just means Unknown Form or in a literal sense "alien". That's why the troops are so confused and scoff in amusement since aliens aren't real in thay universe. Until suddenly they are.

It just means Unknown Form

more like "unknown variation" though

Ugly Motherfuckers.
