@@borislugosi54 That is also true. Predator comes to mind. Going off of most shows these days though most look cheap even if the budget is in the millions per episode. Pretty sure the higher ups are pocketing most of the money.
Bro your channel is very underrated. And I like your imagination, we need more people like you in Hollywood that are willing to get more creative with story telling💯
@@Cinemavigilante I feel like combining the story of Berserk, with the story of StarCraft 2, have that story be the origin of the original Alien Queen who was a human and undergone some kind of cosmic horror transformation, who betrayed her friends by making some deal with some cosmic Eldritch entity, and that was the origin of the Alien home world, the origin of all variations of Xenomorphs or something cosmic and grand scaling like that. I felt that mainly Shaw, David and some other characters like her husband and even Wayland boss rewritten to be likeable and actually have story arcs and character growth, IMHO Prometheus could've gone in this direction. Maybe showing the Engineer ship leaving, and a scene showing that Engineer's chest already burst, and trails leading outside to where the ship was. I felt like Covenant should've been set to the Engineer's world, maybe Wayland survives in some way in that ship, and story centers around David, Shaw, Wayland and the Deacon that snuck on board, and during the journey we see characters interacting in that ship with the Deacon sneaking around observing them IDK, we see some development with David and Shaw and even Wayland maybe the doink the Engineer gave him gave him a near death experience and maybe second thoughts about immortality or whatever. Now because the Deacon is still Shaw's 'son' and they have that connection, to stalks her and each of the characters also because it's part Engineer and maybe instinctively knows the ship's layouts, most of us viewers assume maybe it's antagonistic, here we see a scene of this Deacon sees Shaw attacked by snake like creature, it saves her, kills it, turns to hiss at Shaw, turns and leaps away, and before leaving it looks back, gives an curious head tilt, then leaps away, all this behavior is to add confusion and make audiences really question of this Xenomorph like creature is merely just killing stuff or is there an intelligence in that head. Finally they arrive at Engineer's hoe world. From here IDK maybe have a more friendlier Engineer come to them or a small group of armed Engineers capture them, we get to see their culture and home world, maybe a scene of Deacon sneaking into the wild and developing it's abilities and maybe transforms further into a bigger Xenomorph. We finally get to see the source of the black goo, some magic involved. IDK there's some events, I prefer here David being more an anti hero, and some story events later Engineers had some ulterior motives for the Shaw party, the party separates, some events happen, Shaw get's captured and Wayland does, Wayland finally gets his wish for that immortality via Engineers experimenting and giving that goo with some runic magic occult whatever happening, in contrast to his character growth and motivation changing a bit back in the derelict ship with his talks with Shaw and David. Maybe a scene where they are testing Shaw's husband with her watching and she's just pissed. Wayland get's killed to activate some ancient occult tech and magic, it's charging up. We then see the Deacon is back, and actually it is much bigger, armored, and morphed into the Alien King! Yes the Alien King Cameo! Now due to it's carnage and the Engineers trying to fight it with tech it damages some of the devices which keeps the portal dimension localized in the room, so we see the portal expanding the dimensional rift which eventually consumes the ENTIRE Engineer world, turning it into some cosmic horror landscape and we see many variations of Xenomorphs and the Eldritch entity responsible for them. This stage the characters are just trying to survive and escape, many kinds of Xenomorphs coming from this black blob thing start attacking the Engineer's city, causing mayhem. Shaw ends up saving David again, get's caught by those creatures, the Alien King's mowing down these Xenomorphs to get to Shaw. Shaw ends up undergoing this transformation in front of the Eldritch thing which desires to be reborn again or whatever. The Alien King's fighting the Eldritch thing, and it's intense, but because of it's connection to Shaw telepathically somehow she's able to resist and get control back to her mostly transformed body. Shaw's able to absorb the Eldritch thing into her new body, and she becomes the Alien Mother or whatever, she ends up being able to IDK control the hive mind to some degree, and one last act of humanity is for Shaw to briefly withhold the Alien horde away from David and that friendly Engineer, they both escape with a ship, and here we finally see the origins of the Alien Xenomorph world, with Shaw as the Alien Mother who controls other Alien Queens to propagate and carry one the urges and drives of the Eldritch trying to be reborn in some form into this world, and at her side is the Alien King guard, and we finally have David and the friendly Engineer as sole survivors to latter tell future characters about what transpired, maybe later have a cross roads into Predators or something. IDK this is the best script on the spot I can come up with. We finally see Shaw's transformation in character and finally becoming the main villain of this series who also has the soul of the Eldritch thing suppressed within her new body. We get to see the Alien King cameo for comic book lovers and finally tie in the Deacon and make it useful and contribute to the further lore of the Xenomorphs and how badass it is when it's fighting and can hold it's own against a horde of Xenomorphs and other cosmic horror creatures. We finally see what happened to Wayland and IDK maybe he survives again get's his immortality and escapes with David and friendly Engineer and maybe they play an important role for other future characters that need help or they serve as guides to warn others about the Xenomorph home world. Maybe we see a Predator maybe during the escape scenes and we tie them in, maybe the Predator helps and takes the Engineer, David, and Wayland, and it's one of the dishonorable or fugitives Predator or something IDK. Best script on the spot because I'm having some schizophrenic episode and visions about this Aliens and Predators and I'm like 'yeah I got enough time to vomit out a script to give myself some closure from Prometheus and Covenant movie, how the story and characters should have gone'. So yeah have a nice day!😂😂👍👍
Now THAT could be cool. Different animals as hosts, it's the fanservice everyone been asking for ages. Imagine a zoo getting attacked by facehuggers, what could come of: a bull, a deer, a rhino, an elephant, a lion, an eagle, a crocodile, a turtle, etc. So many possibilities...
I would love a TV show focused on Marines in this universe. Maybe planet hopping, following a mysterious black goo that’s changing each species slowly. Only to catch up to the Engineers or something.
i nearly clicked off cos of the mask i dono but it actually suits your voice and vibe - like a superhero version of wendigoon - also top tier Alien commentary - liked, subbed and comment for the algo, good luck bro! keep posting!!
Show Runner Noah Hawley has made it clear he didn't want to tie into the prequels. Right now it's largely about a different company called Prodigy Corporation. Art suggests its about a ship that crashed on Earth with Aliens on board. Hopes of seeing anything to do with the pathogen is...virtually non existent. Hawley has stated that he really just wants it to look and feel like the first two movies. He doesn't want the advanced technology, holographs. He said the prequels are "inherently useless" for what he's trying to do
Funny thing is Alverez said the same thing, but Romulus was just an extention of the prequels that looked like the original movies, with countless callbacks shoved in for good measure.
@RoaryUK there's no record of Fede Alvarez saying he wouldn't tie into the prequels. The difference is Fede Is a fan of the franchise across the board. Noah Hawley seems to actively dislike Prometheus and Covenant. And with Scott recently expressing disappointment with Prometheus I really don't think he'd force Hawley to tie back to it if he doesn't wish to
the woman in the dark to me looks like a human psychic projection of the Queen Mother influencing humans, the concept of the queen mother to me is more interesting then a humanoid xenomorph borg queen type entity.
As I'm watching Prometheus I just thought about something how did the engineer run all the way to the Prometheus ship and breathe when they have to have oxygen like a human to breathe they screwed up on that one
Zaffy, love and resoect your channel. Every video of yours that i have watched I feel like im having a candid nerd conversation with someone who's geek gland is bigger than mine! A couple of times I have talked out loud in response to some of your theory statements. You're definitely an intelligent dude and your passion is inspiring and impressive!
I agree that setting this on Earth is a hazard waiting to happen. The unfamiliarity of space, the claustrophobia of a space vessel and the inability to run to a familiar place for safety is a big part of the horror in the Alien franchise. Also, AVP is not canon. The movies really defeated the alien-ness of Alien. It was way too hokey and comic-bookish, especially taking place on Earth--and especially in modern times rather than the future.
The lady in the dark could just be the human representation of the queen mother. Giving a species a growing desire to unknowingly meet the xenomorphs through space travel and the desire to explore the unknown.
Awsome video and I hope they try to properly make this series I to the alien series we need and everything you said about the engineers and the mystery thank you for say that from fans everywhere
One way to tie this together would be the Engineer having a feud with the Preditors. The Preditors were winning and the Engineers in a desperate move decided to creat the Xeno's to balance the war. The derelict ship was going to the preditors home planet or outpost and a xeno (or facehugger) got freed and cause the ship to crash.
I think the lady in the dark is a meh concept, well I should reiterate. I don't like the human hybrid design. if it was like a xenomorph empress or something that looks more xenomorph-like then I could definitely get behind this idea.
@@Darklotsz respectfully I disagree, I just think the concept of a humanoid entity controlling the Xenomorphs is weird. I mean I get it, it's space so literally anything can be out there (that's why I like the pathogen) but a Xenomorph goddess? That's weird.
@@Darklotsz I mean I guess but can't we just use the Space Jockeys? Or just leave it unknown? One of the staples of the Alien Franchise is keeping things unknown. But If they use a Xenomorph Empress or something that it will get the plot moving and keep the audience. If you've never seen the Earth War comics you should check it out, they have very similar concepts to this. Alien Theory: Accounts of the Earth War he's a great RUclipsr and does a lot of awesome Alien stuff.
@@khorbinetter4419 I get it you don't like ehat their's doing with the franchise now and you probably don't like any other alien film except the first one but you gotta understand that if we don't explore aliens mysteries thus franchise is nothing take for example the game alien decent it was one of the best and compelling stories so far
Damn yo, this would be dope 12:25 👀 almost 3 body problem-esq. I agree Alien, at a core for me at least, is a lore about dread, perseverance, and adventure into the void and spirit/soul. Like "wtf is THAT...I want to touch it" vs "wtf is THAT...We need to destroy it". This yin yang relationship MUST be in any source material for me to respect it
They're ripping off the ripoffs. 'Alien 2: On earth' is a cheap ass ripoff of Alien capitalizing off of the success of the first Alien movie. It's so bad I'm never gonna talk about it.
They have a needle in a haystack chance to not leave the lore in an even more convoluted state than it is now. I REALLY hope they can tie it all up well enough. I wan't the Alien franchise start getting hits again.
@@elvinsolano6177 where did you see that? I've been seeing a plot point relating to synths and that Weyland would figure in the show. The Yutani merger didn't happen until after Alien
I think the problem is that this predates the original Alien. Which defeats the purpose of the original being the first encounter with the Alien. I know that Covenant effectively did this. But retconning the series stuffs ups the movie timeline. I also think that it should be written in to lore that David only made a breed of the Xenomorph as opposed to totally creating them.
Dude, did you ever read the Dark Horse Comic series Earth war? Or the novel The female war? There's a lot you can do with aliens on Earth bro. But I do agree, I would like to see the lady in the dark.
I like your ideas!!!! the mystery of the unknown, lovecraftian, dark forces , evil beyond human can't even comprehand, HR GIGER art styles, the space jockey from Alien 1979, sci-fi aura and alot more!!! This is the reason why the first 2 alien movies are masterpiece but for me OBVIOUSLY THE FIRST ALIEN 1979 👽💀👻
It sounds like a follow up to Alien 4. I kind a like the idea of that. However I agree with you on the idea of they should stay in space. But at the same time, I will give this series a watch and have hope that they can make it good, fresh and new but still keep it true to the original ideas. However I haven´t read any comics on Alien since early 90´s.
@@Cinemavigilante Ok, now this might be even more interresting to watch - bare in mind I really loved Prometheus. Many thanks for all the videos and for this reply too. Hope you will have a great start of the new week too.
"Aura". Yes. I love this idea of the xenomorph darkness also occupying a psychic realm. The origins should always be mysterious and never ending rabbit hole. Love the idea of the woman as an almost Lovecraftian presence that never really needs to be explained. And that includes the physiology. What if for all the intelligent creatures out there who encounter this xenomorph Bio-entity and its miraculously destructive and adaptive dna, theyre all in awe and wonder to its origins, and because all these intelligent creatures are conscious and thus have a sub conscious, the xenomorphs can then act as an antithesis to most living creatures in the universe, reinforcing its Lovecraftian nature. All the intelligences engage with it differently too, the engineers reverse bio-engineer it, david plays with it to validate his existence, the predators hunt them for sport, and human make movies and tv shows and comics about them, It would be interesting to hear the yautja mythology around the xenomorph and maybe their own horrifying past with this cosmic entity.. I mean side note, but would anyone be opposed to watching a predator movie from the predator perspective? You think people would give a sht about reading subtitles and watching non humans interact? we loved that sht in the Reeves planet of the apes movies, people talked about how hypnotising an experience it was. WHATEVER. bring in an english guy to lighten it up. make him a cool scientist tho who knows jui jitsu or some sht. STOP LETTING THE PENTAGON WRITE ALL YOUR SHITTY MOVIES HOLLYWOOD. The cool thing about it being on earth will be all the creatures that can come from earth creatures. imagine a xeno anaconda or elephant or crocodile. Thats what makes the human xeno so interesting is its connection to us, but what about other life in the universe, thats an interesting direction. Anyway man, this video was awesome!!! Im a huge alien fan and you introduced me to something ive never heard before and got my creative juices rolling on this subject.

Lets be honest, a Xenomorph is like a Big Cat, A Predator on a spaceship, like if you were stuck with a fucking lion on a tight corridor... a Lion on a forest would kill someone and then gett destroyed by humans with guns, and we know bullets kill xenos from Aliens so a Xeno in earth would be as dangerous as a wild animal, a bear or something
I wish they didn't kill off the engineers. They could have could have been the villians in an arch. A species that can reason and think like the predators but doesn't fully rely on their instincts like the xenonorphs.
The Engineers were obsessed with studying genetics and modifying it. So I would say that the space jockeys/Prometheus Engineer were definitely something different from the Covenant Engineers. Perhaps they even held some religious significance to the lower caste. The Covenant Engineers seemed somewhat in awe at the spaceship's arrival
Famous Monsters remember the 70s? Tells us that Alien 2 was to be called Alien on Earth....maybe the cost prohibited that, and we got the Cameron second film. The Space Jockey likely created Engineeers, and knew about the Xenos, a separate species....David only cloned them, as shown by humans duplicating them in Romulas.
AVP-R was bad, think it was darker than space could not see much :( face huggers in woods only went after humans, would of thought they would of hugged the first host they found deer/bear, would of not known Humans were on planet, Alien takes on DNA from its hosts to maximise survivability in its environment, Having this on earth could be fun if done right maybe a zoo gets infected first so not all the xenos we all know lol, Rhino alien, Giraffe alien, monkey alien.
This is Hollywood we’re talking about. Off course the face huggers will hike through the whole Yosemite park to find the perfect host… the drunk lumberjack living alone in his trailer. 😂😂😂😂
Honestly the story for avp 1 is really good! The reason for the aliens being on earth because been used for the hunt is brilliant, but just leave them in space! It works so much better, alot more story to dive into with the jockeys and the engineers and so fourth
I have to say: I have no expectation on this show, so they're free to amaze me lol. 'Alien - Romulus' proved anything can happen. We never got an Alien show, so it's already new ground for Alien. All that said above, I do worry how big this show could be. I don't wanna see anything massive like "oh there's an alien invasion on Earth" (leave for a 3rd season) but I don't wanna see another "oh there's a xenomorph" (that should be only a few episodes), there needs to be a middle ground. The show needs to make us feel terrified of the idea of xenomorphs on Earth, because it's not "oh I'm not in space so I'm safe", they could be ANYWHERE so nobody is safe and that should be the focus. I like the idea of expanding the lore, but that's dangerous. We know xenos were already known by Weyland-Yutani in 2100s, but this is BEFORE 'Prometheus', so my only guess is that xenos come from one of the first expeditions to outer space and they end up in some secret Weyland facility, which has to be destroyed at the end so there are no evidences or xenos to spread. If there's anything beyond xeno lore, it's probably gonna be some paralel story to the movies, else it would break continuity. Basically we can't have any expectations, because it's dangerous territory. Anything small could be a flop, anything big could be a retcon so let's wait it out. Maybe it's worth it.
I like your ideas but i honestly don't see it for this upcoming show. The live actions films have always been more grounded than the deep Alien lore. I feel like this would be good if they decided to do an animated series!
Agreed about making Space Jockeys and Engineers a different species, there is just no way that fossil in Alien is one of those bald white fellas, it'd be impossible
David only messed with something that already had existed, in one form or another. Can't believe people can't see that.. The black goo (The Prometheus Fire) is the key!!!! Everything comes from it.. from somewhere in space and time.
love the passion, in a perfect world this direction would be the one they choose but I don't have much faith in the current mentality the franchise is set into...
And/Or Humanity could to be moving towards species of Xenomorph-Human hybridization? and by extension extinction of humanity as we know as we become well, Alien to ourselves? That could be very dumb or good, and execution will be everything. Zf-01, The Lady in Darkness (still can be representing), Lee Queen/Hybrid, Ripley 8, and Fulfremmen (from rpg) seem to be moving in that direction. Also agree, show hopefully will confirm or imply Humanity was not made by Engineers, and Engineers merely imitate and are not the Space Jocky's species. Ridley Scott is exec producer for whatever that will be.
while the lady in the dark does look like a xenomorph and Species alien fused together I really would like to see the concept of her in a show or movie hell here's a concept never considered what if she seeks out the garden of eden but in order to gain access to it she's missing something maybe she seeks her own adam as she would be Eve and with the xenomorphs being her by product only but the xenomorphs are incomplete meaning they could be even more dangerous with her as Eve and when she has her Adam the xenomorphs could go beyond what they are and become something new and dangerous.
I didnt know about this woman of the dark, its a pretty cool concept but i can see how it also they can make it so wrong i can see it after a alien vs predator movie with some easter eggs about this woman, and how the mind of the aliens have been studied by the predators as well i share the opinion of the aliens in earth, it just gonna pass quick and its not gonna put nothing new in the lore but im gonna see it anyway, maybe they got littles suprises good video, hope you talk about the movie Badlands (i think they start filming next month)
I hate to sound negative, and i am still gonna watch this show. But the moment they decided to make a tv show and not have it be about hadleys hope, that is the moment I set my expectations low. However I am fully prepared to eat my hat if its good, and I hope it is good.
I saw that 9 second Alien Earth trailer before seeing the crow after seeing romulus and i was literally like "whoa what the fuck!" out loud. I was genuinely surprised by it i had no idea they were also making a show. Like you i cant help but be excited for it but i do wish you were running the show instead. Also lets keep Ridley Scott away from Alien now, hes never cared about continuity and realisticly hijacked alien with all his prequel explaining wanted to tie everything to David as creator. Its a miracle we can still find ways to imagine it all fits by ignoring scotts intentions and making things mean what we want them too.
My opinion Alien earth gonna make Ripley's sacrifice and arc meaningless and here's why. Ripley whole story even as a clone was to stop the aliens from reaching earth so why would that plot matter if the aliens has already been there? Also slightly unrelated but still a point nonetheless if the series is set one year before Prometheus how was Weyland not aware of the xenomorphs if his whole journey was to meet our creators to extend his life. Why didn't Weyland actively pursue the xenomorphs why was his whole intentions solely about finding the engineers why does this whole plot about creation exist in Prometheus if just one year before a creature of destruction is going to be the focus?
@@Cinemavigilante Also I'm not optimistic if I'm being honest about this series Alien Romulus had good ideas about the new born but it was poorly executed reason the new born was only around for 10 minutes in my opinion the new born should have been the focal point of the film tracking you down killing xenos humans and droids alike displaying it's share brutality maybe even being able to communicate with the xenos and become their leader if they choose but instead xenos was the main focus for the duration of Romulus and the new born was relegated to a footnote in the entire film so I highly doubt alien earth gonna be any different it just gonna be a cash grab with cheap fan service references and easter eggs nothing more nothing less we saw a shot load of that in Romulus why tf did they need to do CGI ash or bring back the big chap as a corpse and mention Weyland? Believe you me most casuals is who they catering for not fans and the casuals prefer dumb body to the wall action alien is going through what resident evil went through during the mid 2000s to early 2010s it's part of the evolution of the series we the fans need to bite back show them we the film is for us not high octane Michael Bay action fanboys.
Dude has more braincells than movie directors combined. The same song and dance. It is a toss of old with a hint of new that could branch off new species. Alien, OG drone, Aliens, Queen, Alien 3, Runner, Alien Res., hybrid, and so on. Hate how "explained" videos normally just recap and that's all they talk about during these franchises, but this guy, he's spitting facts.
How about instead of trying to predict and control what the story is you just wait and enjoy it, you’re setting yourself up for disappointment with this one. Almost can guarantee that’s not gonna happen in this TV show lmaoo. If anything it’ll show us how humans are the bad guys lol.
All right I just watched the trailer and yes like I said it seems like Disney's involved by watching it looks like a steaming pile of shit if unless I watched a fake one by Hulu and fox Starlight or whatever
I would say they're reaching... Stop messing up Sci-fi classics. S. Weaver and N. Rapist have already been written out of everything. Now Predator is a little different because they came here twice and D. Glover along with A. Schwarzenegger character survived. However... In my opinion Prometheus was supposed to be a whole different sci-fi classic in itself. I don't know why they tied it into an already established cult classic. Just the concept of humanity looking for God could have been ground breaking and possibly better than the very first Star-Trek movie.🤔 Now the AVP movies were ok, but those movies are stand outs by them selves... You dont even need human characters to be involved Now Alien Covenant/ Prometheus 2 pissed me off also because the main character was killed off coming up short in my opinion on the concept of looking for God. For example certain verses in the bible being recreated with a Sci-fi twist similar to Stargate to ultimately find or going looking for God would have been somewhat better. The thing is if a Cinema flick would ever do this, the movie would have to be over in minutes not a drawn out 90 minute show. 🤔 Jat.👍🏿

I felt like Covenant should've been set to the Engineer's world, maybe Wayland survives in some way in that ship, and story centers around David, Shaw, Wayland and the Deacon that snuck on board, and during the journey we see characters interacting in that ship with the Deacon sneaking around observing them IDK, we see some development with David and Shaw and even Wayland maybe the doink the Engineer gave him gave him a near death experience and maybe second thoughts about immortality or whatever. Now because the Deacon is still Shaw's 'son' and they have that connection, to stalks her and each of the characters also because it's part Engineer and maybe instinctively knows the ship's layouts, most of us viewers assume maybe it's antagonistic, here we see a scene of this Deacon sees Shaw attacked by snake like creature, it saves her, kills it, turns to hiss at Shaw, turns and leaps away, and before leaving it looks back, gives an curious head tilt, then leaps away, all this behavior is to add confusion and make audiences really question of this Xenomorph like creature is merely just killing stuff or is there an intelligence in that head.
Finally they arrive at Engineer's hoe world. From here IDK maybe have a more friendlier Engineer come to them or a small group of armed Engineers capture them, we get to see their culture and home world, maybe a scene of Deacon sneaking into the wild and developing it's abilities and maybe transforms further into a bigger Xenomorph. We finally get to see the source of the black goo, some magic involved. IDK there's some events, I prefer here David being more an anti hero, and some story events later Engineers had some ulterior motives for the Shaw party, the party separates, some events happen, Shaw get's captured and Wayland does, Wayland finally gets his wish for that immortality via Engineers experimenting and giving that goo with some runic magic occult whatever happening, in contrast to his character growth and motivation changing a bit back in the derelict ship with his talks with Shaw and David. Maybe a scene where they are testing Shaw's husband with her watching and she's just pissed. Wayland get's killed to activate some ancient occult tech and magic, it's charging up. We then see the Deacon is back, and actually it is much bigger, armored, and morphed into the Alien King! Yes the Alien King Cameo! Now due to it's carnage and the Engineers trying to fight it with tech it damages some of the devices which keeps the portal dimension localized in the room, so we see the portal expanding the dimensional rift which eventually consumes the ENTIRE Engineer world, turning it into some cosmic horror landscape and we see many variations of Xenomorphs and the Eldritch entity responsible for them. This stage the characters are just trying to survive and escape, many kinds of Xenomorphs coming from this black blob thing start attacking the Engineer's city, causing mayhem. Shaw ends up saving David again, get's caught by those creatures, the Alien King's mowing down these Xenomorphs to get to Shaw. Shaw ends up undergoing this transformation in front of the Eldritch thing which desires to be reborn again or whatever. The Alien King's fighting the Eldritch thing, and it's intense, but because of it's connection to Shaw telepathically somehow she's able to resist and get control back to her mostly transformed body. Shaw's able to absorb the Eldritch thing into her new body, and she becomes the Alien Mother or whatever, she ends up being able to IDK control the hive mind to some degree, and one last act of humanity is for Shaw to briefly withhold the Alien horde away from David and that friendly Engineer, they both escape with a ship, and here we finally see the origins of the Alien Xenomorph world, with Shaw as the Alien Mother who controls other Alien Queens to propagate and carry one the urges and drives of the Eldritch trying to be reborn in some form into this world, and at her side is the Alien King guard, and we finally have David and the friendly Engineer as sole survivors to latter tell future characters about what transpired, maybe later have a cross roads into Predators or something.
IDK this is the best script on the spot I can come up with. We finally see Shaw's transformation in character and finally becoming the main villain of this series who also has the soul of the Eldritch thing suppressed within her new body. We get to see the Alien King cameo for comic book lovers and finally tie in the Deacon and make it useful and contribute to the further lore of the Xenomorphs and how badass it is when it's fighting and can hold it's own against a horde of Xenomorphs and other cosmic horror creatures. We finally see what happened to Wayland and IDK maybe he survives again get's his immortality and escapes with David and friendly Engineer and maybe they play an important role for other future characters that need help or they serve as guides to warn others about the Xenomorph home world. Maybe we see a Predator maybe during the escape scenes and we tie them in, maybe the Predator helps and takes the Engineer, David, and Wayland, and it's one of the dishonorable or fugitives Predator or something IDK. Best script on the spot because I'm having some schizophrenic episode and visions about this Aliens and Predators and I'm like 'yeah I got enough time to vomit out a script to give myself some closure from Prometheus and Covenant movie, how the story and characters should have gone'. So yeah have a nice day!😂😂👍👍

i nearly clicked off cos of the mask i dono but it actually suits your voice and vibe - like a superhero version of wendigoon - also top tier Alien commentary - liked, subbed and comment for the algo, good luck bro! keep posting!!
Show Runner Noah Hawley has made it clear he didn't want to tie into the prequels. Right now it's largely about a different company called Prodigy Corporation. Art suggests its about a ship that crashed on Earth with Aliens on board. Hopes of seeing anything to do with the pathogen is...virtually non existent. Hawley has stated that he really just wants it to look and feel like the first two movies. He doesn't want the advanced technology, holographs. He said the prequels are "inherently useless" for what he's trying to do
Funny thing is Alverez said the same thing, but Romulus was just an extention of the prequels that looked like the original movies, with countless callbacks shoved in for good measure.
@RoaryUK there's no record of Fede Alvarez saying he wouldn't tie into the prequels. The difference is Fede Is a fan of the franchise across the board. Noah Hawley seems to actively dislike Prometheus and Covenant. And with Scott recently expressing disappointment with Prometheus I really don't think he'd force Hawley to tie back to it if he doesn't wish to
@@RoaryUKThat's bullshit. Alvarez clearly stated it would tie into all the movies, including the prequels
Noah Hawley is the Alien: Earth showrunner.
Scrap the prequels.
the woman in the dark to me looks like a human psychic projection of the Queen Mother influencing humans, the concept of the queen mother to me is more interesting then a humanoid xenomorph borg queen type entity.
As I'm watching Prometheus I just thought about something how did the engineer run all the way to the Prometheus ship and breathe when they have to have oxygen like a human to breathe they screwed up on that one
Zaffy, love and resoect your channel. Every video of yours that i have watched I feel like im having a candid nerd conversation with someone who's geek gland is bigger than mine! A couple of times I have talked out loud in response to some of your theory statements. You're definitely an intelligent dude and your passion is inspiring and impressive!
thanks man!!
Totally Agree with Ur Points/Cool Ideas Zaffy & Here’s the Thing Obviously: Earth is Limiting & Space is LIMITLESS, MAN
I agree that setting this on Earth is a hazard waiting to happen. The unfamiliarity of space, the claustrophobia of a space vessel and the inability to run to a familiar place for safety is a big part of the horror in the Alien franchise.
Also, AVP is not canon. The movies really defeated the alien-ness of Alien. It was way too hokey and comic-bookish, especially taking place on Earth--and especially in modern times rather than the future.
The lady in the dark could just be the human representation of the queen mother. Giving a species a growing desire to unknowingly meet the xenomorphs through space travel and the desire to explore the unknown.
We've already seen Xenos on Earth in AVP and AVPR, and we got a whole lot of it too! xD
Are we sure we saw a Xenomorph in AVP: Requiem? Cuz I couldn’t see anything the entire movie.
Awsome video and I hope they try to properly make this series I to the alien series we need and everything you said about the engineers and the mystery thank you for say that from fans everywhere
Tell me it's the borg queen without saying it's the borg queen.
One way to tie this together would be the Engineer having a feud with the Preditors. The Preditors were winning and the Engineers in a desperate move decided to creat the Xeno's to balance the war. The derelict ship was going to the preditors home planet or outpost and a xeno (or facehugger) got freed and cause the ship to crash.
I think the lady in the dark is a meh concept, well I should reiterate. I don't like the human hybrid design. if it was like a xenomorph empress or something that looks more xenomorph-like then I could definitely get behind this idea.
i disagree lady in the dark is one of the best hybrids ever made on this universe
@@Darklotsz respectfully I disagree, I just think the concept of a humanoid entity controlling the Xenomorphs is weird. I mean I get it, it's space so literally anything can be out there (that's why I like the pathogen) but a Xenomorph goddess? That's weird.
@@khorbinetter4419 she is like the engineer but for xenos
@@Darklotsz I mean I guess but can't we just use the Space Jockeys? Or just leave it unknown? One of the staples of the Alien Franchise is keeping things unknown. But If they use a Xenomorph Empress or something that it will get the plot moving and keep the audience. If you've never seen the Earth War comics you should check it out, they have very similar concepts to this.
Alien Theory: Accounts of the Earth War he's a great RUclipsr and does a lot of awesome Alien stuff.
@@khorbinetter4419 I get it you don't like ehat their's doing with the franchise now and you probably don't like any other alien film except the first one but you gotta understand that if we don't explore aliens mysteries thus franchise is nothing take for example the game alien decent it was one of the best and compelling stories so far
Damn yo, this would be dope 12:25 👀 almost 3 body problem-esq. I agree Alien, at a core for me at least, is a lore about dread, perseverance, and adventure into the void and spirit/soul. Like "wtf is THAT...I want to touch it" vs "wtf is THAT...We need to destroy it". This yin yang relationship MUST be in any source material for me to respect it
The image of the Woman is Li Tobler....her bsckstory is unsettling.
They're ripping off the ripoffs. 'Alien 2: On earth' is a cheap ass ripoff of Alien capitalizing off of the success of the first Alien movie. It's so bad I'm never gonna talk about it.
You had me at retconning Prometheus prequels! HOPE TO GOD THEY DO !
They have a needle in a haystack chance to not leave the lore in an even more convoluted state than it is now.
I REALLY hope they can tie it all up well enough. I wan't the Alien franchise start getting hits again.
The show could explain how Weyland was aware of the alien and had the special order to find/protect the organism that Ash was reacting to in Alien.
Alien: Eath has nothing to do with Weyland-Yutani, according to the shows showrunner Noah Hawley.
@@elvinsolano6177 where did you see that? I've been seeing a plot point relating to synths and that Weyland would figure in the show. The Yutani merger didn't happen until after Alien
I think the problem is that this predates the original Alien. Which defeats the purpose of the original being the first encounter with the Alien. I know that Covenant effectively did this. But retconning the series stuffs ups the movie timeline. I also think that it should be written in to lore that David only made a breed of the Xenomorph as opposed to totally creating them.
Everybody knows Hollywood doesn't like following the comic book source material. Its gonna be a dry and boring series
I was watching some boring RUclips video but fok that then I came here much happy now ❤
Love the show bro you at least know what your talking about even if I disagree sometimes still great content
thanks my man
Dude, did you ever read the Dark Horse Comic series Earth war? Or the novel The female war? There's a lot you can do with aliens on Earth bro. But I do agree, I would like to see the lady in the dark.

It sounds like a follow up to Alien 4. I kind a like the idea of that. However I agree with you on the idea of they should stay in space. But at the same time, I will give this series a watch and have hope that they can make it good, fresh and new but still keep it true to the original ideas. However I haven´t read any comics on Alien since early 90´s.
@@pekinobo this one takes plac3 before prometheus apparently
@@Cinemavigilante Ok, now this might be even more interresting to watch - bare in mind I really loved Prometheus. Many thanks for all the videos and for this reply too. Hope you will have a great start of the new week too.
"Aura". Yes. I love this idea of the xenomorph darkness also occupying a psychic realm. The origins should always be mysterious and never ending rabbit hole. Love the idea of the woman as an almost Lovecraftian presence that never really needs to be explained. And that includes the physiology. What if for all the intelligent creatures out there who encounter this xenomorph Bio-entity and its miraculously destructive and adaptive dna, theyre all in awe and wonder to its origins, and because all these intelligent creatures are conscious and thus have a sub conscious, the xenomorphs can then act as an antithesis to most living creatures in the universe, reinforcing its Lovecraftian nature.
All the intelligences engage with it differently too, the engineers reverse bio-engineer it, david plays with it to validate his existence, the predators hunt them for sport, and human make movies and tv shows and comics about them,
It would be interesting to hear the yautja mythology around the xenomorph and maybe their own horrifying past with this cosmic entity.. I mean side note, but would anyone be opposed to watching a predator movie from the predator perspective? You think people would give a sht about reading subtitles and watching non humans interact? we loved that sht in the Reeves planet of the apes movies, people talked about how hypnotising an experience it was. WHATEVER. bring in an english guy to lighten it up. make him a cool scientist tho who knows jui jitsu or some sht. STOP LETTING THE PENTAGON WRITE ALL YOUR SHITTY MOVIES HOLLYWOOD.
The cool thing about it being on earth will be all the creatures that can come from earth creatures. imagine a xeno anaconda or elephant or crocodile. Thats what makes the human xeno so interesting is its connection to us, but what about other life in the universe, thats an interesting direction.
Anyway man, this video was awesome!!! Im a huge alien fan and you introduced me to something ive never heard before and got my creative juices rolling on this subject.
@@mavillejones5908 thanks bro!!
I feel like combining the story of Berserk, with the story of StarCraft 2, have that story be the origin of the original Alien Queen who was a human and undergone some kind of cosmic horror transformation, who betrayed her friends by making some deal with some cosmic Eldritch entity, and that was the origin of the Alien home world, the origin of all variations of Xenomorphs or something cosmic and grand scaling like that.

Prometheus warned his bro not to get anything from Gods he said ok then they brought beautiful Pandora and Epimetheus changed his mind...
Lets be honest, a Xenomorph is like a Big Cat, A Predator on a spaceship, like if you were stuck with a fucking lion on a tight corridor... a Lion on a forest would kill someone and then gett destroyed by humans with guns, and we know bullets kill xenos from Aliens so a Xeno in earth would be as dangerous as a wild animal, a bear or something
I wish they didn't kill off the engineers. They could have could have been the villians in an arch. A species that can reason and think like the predators but doesn't fully rely on their instincts like the xenonorphs.
The Engineers were obsessed with studying genetics and modifying it. So I would say that the space jockeys/Prometheus Engineer were definitely something different from the Covenant Engineers. Perhaps they even held some religious significance to the lower caste. The Covenant Engineers seemed somewhat in awe at the spaceship's arrival
You get what the fans want you should write the next movie I would watch it
Famous Monsters remember the 70s? Tells us that Alien 2 was to be called Alien on Earth....maybe the cost prohibited that, and we got the Cameron second film.
The Space Jockey likely created Engineeers, and knew about the Xenos, a separate species....David only cloned them, as shown by humans duplicating them in Romulas.
Why dress up as Deathstroke just really curious

AVP-R was bad, think it was darker than space could not see much :( face huggers in woods only went after humans, would of thought they would of hugged the first host they found deer/bear, would of not known Humans were on planet, Alien takes on DNA from its hosts to maximise survivability in its environment, Having this on earth could be fun if done right maybe a zoo gets infected first so not all the xenos we all know lol, Rhino alien, Giraffe alien, monkey alien.
@@Matttough333 yea diff xeno types based on hosts would be cool
This is Hollywood we’re talking about. Off course the face huggers will hike through the whole Yosemite park to find the perfect host… the drunk lumberjack living alone in his trailer. 😂😂😂😂
Honestly the story for avp 1 is really good! The reason for the aliens being on earth because been used for the hunt is brilliant, but just leave them in space! It works so much better, alot more story to dive into with the jockeys and the engineers and so fourth
I have to say: I have no expectation on this show, so they're free to amaze me lol. 'Alien - Romulus' proved anything can happen. We never got an Alien show, so it's already new ground for Alien.
All that said above, I do worry how big this show could be. I don't wanna see anything massive like "oh there's an alien invasion on Earth" (leave for a 3rd season) but I don't wanna see another "oh there's a xenomorph" (that should be only a few episodes), there needs to be a middle ground. The show needs to make us feel terrified of the idea of xenomorphs on Earth, because it's not "oh I'm not in space so I'm safe", they could be ANYWHERE so nobody is safe and that should be the focus.
I like the idea of expanding the lore, but that's dangerous. We know xenos were already known by Weyland-Yutani in 2100s, but this is BEFORE 'Prometheus', so my only guess is that xenos come from one of the first expeditions to outer space and they end up in some secret Weyland facility, which has to be destroyed at the end so there are no evidences or xenos to spread. If there's anything beyond xeno lore, it's probably gonna be some paralel story to the movies, else it would break continuity.
Basically we can't have any expectations, because it's dangerous territory. Anything small could be a flop, anything big could be a retcon so let's wait it out. Maybe it's worth it.
I like your ideas but i honestly don't see it for this upcoming show. The live actions films have always been more grounded than the deep Alien lore. I feel like this would be good if they decided to do an animated series!
Agreed about making Space Jockeys and Engineers a different species, there is just no way that fossil in Alien is one of those bald white fellas, it'd be impossible

Or Ridley Scott will say this show is not tier one canon.
there was an alien in the trees when it scares the little girl
Zaffy do you watch From? ❤
Is the Species series connected to the Alien world? After all, they look so similar to Ginger's Alien's creations.
And/Or Humanity could to be moving towards species of Xenomorph-Human hybridization? and by extension extinction of humanity as we know as we become well, Alien to ourselves? That could be very dumb or good, and execution will be everything. Zf-01, The Lady in Darkness (still can be representing), Lee Queen/Hybrid, Ripley 8, and Fulfremmen (from rpg) seem to be moving in that direction.
Also agree, show hopefully will confirm or imply Humanity was not made by Engineers, and Engineers merely imitate and are not the Space Jocky's species. Ridley Scott is exec producer for whatever that will be.
while the lady in the dark does look like a xenomorph and Species alien fused together I really would like to see the concept of her in a show or movie hell here's a concept never considered what if she seeks out the garden of eden but in order to gain access to it she's missing something maybe she seeks her own adam as she would be Eve and with the xenomorphs being her by product only but the xenomorphs are incomplete meaning they could be even more dangerous with her as Eve and when she has her Adam the xenomorphs could go beyond what they are and become something new and dangerous.
I didnt know about this woman of the dark, its a pretty cool concept
but i can see how it also they can make it so wrong
i can see it after a alien vs predator movie with some easter eggs about this woman, and how the mind of the aliens have been studied by the predators as well
i share the opinion of the aliens in earth, it just gonna pass quick and its not gonna put nothing new in the lore but im gonna see it anyway, maybe they got littles suprises
good video, hope you talk about the movie Badlands (i think they start filming next month)
I hate to sound negative, and i am still gonna watch this show. But the moment they decided to make a tv show and not have it be about hadleys hope, that is the moment I set my expectations low. However I am fully prepared to eat my hat if its good, and I hope it is good.
Them thumb pops tho 🤣🤣
maybe we see the gorilla xeno now a buffed xenomorph years ago there was a toy from that
The lore's been ruined since alien 3
If it's not like Rakka by Neill Blomkamp then I'm not gonna hold out hope
Give us differnt Animal Xeno breeds.
yeah bro...enough said
I saw that 9 second Alien Earth trailer before seeing the crow after seeing romulus and i was literally like "whoa what the fuck!" out loud. I was genuinely surprised by it i had no idea they were also making a show. Like you i cant help but be excited for it but i do wish you were running the show instead. Also lets keep Ridley Scott away from Alien now, hes never cared about continuity and realisticly hijacked alien with all his prequel explaining wanted to tie everything to David as creator. Its a miracle we can still find ways to imagine it all fits by ignoring scotts intentions and making things mean what we want them too.
My opinion
Alien earth gonna make Ripley's sacrifice and arc meaningless and here's why.
Ripley whole story even as a clone was to stop the aliens from reaching earth so why would that plot matter if the aliens has already been there?
Also slightly unrelated but still a point nonetheless if the series is set one year before Prometheus how was Weyland not aware of the xenomorphs if his whole journey was to meet our creators to extend his life.
Why didn't Weyland actively pursue the xenomorphs why was his whole intentions solely about finding the engineers why does this whole plot about creation exist in Prometheus if just one year before a creature of destruction is going to be the focus?
@@Bushmasterghillie yea this show seems to retcon everything
@@Cinemavigilante
Also I'm not optimistic if I'm being honest about this series
Alien Romulus had good ideas about the new born but it was poorly executed reason the new born was only around for 10 minutes in my opinion the new born should have been the focal point of the film tracking you down killing xenos humans and droids alike displaying it's share brutality maybe even being able to communicate with the xenos and become their leader if they choose but instead xenos was the main focus for the duration of Romulus and the new born was relegated to a footnote in the entire film so I highly doubt alien earth gonna be any different it just gonna be a cash grab with cheap fan service references and easter eggs nothing more nothing less we saw a shot load of that in Romulus why tf did they need to do CGI ash or bring back the big chap as a corpse and mention Weyland?
Believe you me most casuals is who they catering for not fans and the casuals prefer dumb body to the wall action alien is going through what resident evil went through during the mid 2000s to early 2010s it's part of the evolution of the series we the fans need to bite back show them we the film is for us not high octane Michael Bay action fanboys.

Agreed, do you think there’s just more routes you can go? It opens up so many doors imo.
@@avb19d6 it seems to give different results everytime so , endless possibilities really.
I would say they're reaching... Stop messing up Sci-fi classics. S. Weaver and N. Rapist have already been written out of everything.
Now Predator is a little different because they came here twice and D. Glover along with A. Schwarzenegger character survived.
However... In my opinion Prometheus was supposed to be a whole different sci-fi classic in itself. I don't know why they tied it into an already established cult classic. Just the concept of humanity looking for God could have been ground breaking and possibly better than the very first Star-Trek movie.🤔
Now the AVP movies were ok, but those movies are stand outs by them selves... You dont even need human characters to be involved
Now Alien Covenant/ Prometheus 2 pissed me off also because the main character was killed off coming up short in my opinion on the concept of looking for God.
For example certain verses in the bible being recreated with a Sci-fi twist similar to Stargate to ultimately find or going looking for God would have been somewhat better.
The thing is if a Cinema flick would ever do this, the movie would have to be over in minutes not a drawn out 90 minute show. 🤔 Jat.👍🏿
