    What if Weyland Yutani's motivation to exploit the Xenomorphs stemmed from the early encounters of the Predators. Knowing that Mankind would not stand a chance against such a species should it choose to invade. The only creature seen to stand toe to toe with the Predators was the Xeno, making their domestication and use for military application essential to counter any hostile alien attack.

      Ah yes, the deadly Yautja, who are winless against all sorts of humans: former spec ops, a cop, a teenage native American.
      Not really the existential threat. And I forget which comic it was that elaborated, but they Yautja consider humans more dangerous than xenomorphs (not that Weyland would have had that part of info, though).

    • @matthewstigall5299
      @matthewstigall5299 4 месяца назад +1

      The only problem with this is that the yautja as species have very low population numbers compared to the human race and the fact that not all yautja clans see eye to eye. They simply dont have even close to numbers it would take to launch a successful invasion of earth. The human armies would decimate them if they tried.

    Ahh, the M41A pulse rifle!
    If you look real close at 7:12, upper-left, you can see the Thompson machine gun hiding under all that fancy movie-prop plastic.
    The film-makers wanted a loud blank-firing prop gun, as it gave the actors something to react to.
    Hard to be a bad-ass space-marine when your prop gun only flashes!
    The 'smart-guns' were stripped-down MG42's on steadi-cam mounts.
    The blank-firing got so loud that ear-plugs became mandatory on set.

      @lukas6967 4 года назад +1

      I am not sure about Blade Runner but I think Ridley Scott never confirmed a connection. But regarding your question why he didnt explained the connection between AvP and WY: because there is nothing to explain. The AvP and Alien Universe are two complete different universes. Charles Bishop Weyland never existed in the Alien Lore. Most of the things he explained regarding the companys History is from the Alien Universe. In the Alien Universe Weyland was formed in 2016 by Peter Weyland. The AvP Movies are set in 2004 and 2007 which means that a possible plot related connection between those universes doesnt makes sense. The AvP games/movies do pretend there is a plot connection but there is non.

The engineer civilisation lies shattered and destroyed. And if all the humans ( besides pirates) are one faction and don't fight each other then why do they need so much military and stuff?

      Why do people think it's destroyed? Why can't these isolated stories have greater twists towards a larger narrative. What if WY already knows that the Xenomorphs are mankind's last hope vs an awaiting foe? We never actually know how the Xenomorphs got to their destinations. So what if the WY obsession with the Xenomorphs and the engineers is in reality them learning from their foe and turning this weapom against them
      I see hundreds of possibly arcs, just because they aren't doing what we thought doesn't mean the movies ruined anything.

      While it is addressed in Alien: Isolation that there *are* competitors to WY, truth is in a government ran market all it takes is one company to start expanding regulations till they're so complex that competition can't pass regulation standards and can't bribe their way out of them. The end result is smaller companies continually getting naenae'd by regulations until one remains, now backed by a government regulatory system likely first lobbied for in an attempt to end WY.

    There is no other alien species that is fighting humanity as it is clearly stated by the Weyland-Yutani executives in the movie Aliens that there has never been any other alien species ever discovered. That makes the alien the first discovered alien creature ever, along with the Engineers. So why do the army need so many weapons and bio weapons to fight if there are no alien enemies? Well that is truly the mystery in the alien universe. If I had to take a guess at who the army was fighting with, it would simply be fighting with other humans. Factions or rogue world outposts that don’t want to be run or governed by Earth executives at Welland-Yutani is my best guess.

    Okay, the Xenomorph control system in the thumbnail looks awesome. But I would never trust that thing not to fail.
    You'd never be able to assign me alongside mind-controlled Xenomorphs. I'd expect for the system to malfunction at any second and to get torn apart.

      I believe it's concept art for one of the films or maybe one of the games, can't be sure. it's not from any of the comics (the art work is too good, most of the comics were quite poorly drawn) though it could be from some art's personal work
      the comic series does show aliens being used in similar ways as blood hounds but these aliens are usually fitted with big metal harnesses (too keep them from biting) and again the art work in those comics were usually pretty poor by comparison

    • @mikepowell8611
      @mikepowell8611 7 лет назад +9

      Wrong, you know nothing about libertarians. First libertarians love private property especially thier own bodies and would never want it damaged or killed. Its called the non-aggression principle, it say we don't hurt people or break thier stuff. Second, who funds weapons development? Corperations dont do shit for free. If they wanted a bioweapon its because the government wanted one and would be willing to pay for it. Third, deploying bioweapons lowers property values in general and libertarians oppose that much the same as they view polution.
      Libertarians wouldn't mind it if the corperation wanted to study the organism on say a privately owned research facility on an uninhabited celestial body perhaps a moon around a Jupiter like planet some lightyears away. Libertaianism isn't a suicide pact.

    Awesome video! Very well narrated, and explanatory of necessary knowledge of the story. Xenomorph XX121 is one of the most horrific alien creatures ever thought of. Made the Predator look more like an action star than a monster. But seriously though, the only alien more scarier is, THE THING! Always wondered what would happen if THE THING, ever tangled with Xenomorph XX121. That would sure be some kind of Monster Showdown....
