    The last bit about the general looking at aliens and projecting in his mind his will over the aliens (assuming they could actually sense his thoughts in any way) is interesting.
    In the whole Dr. Church series, its revealed that if you dope a man with drugs to suppress any sense of fear and fill him with complete confidence and sense of invincibility and put him in front of an alien, the alien actually hesitates from attacking such a man, going instead for someone not doped up.
    And then hesitates to attack even the un-doped fellow, if the doped fellow mentally projects an "order" not to attack him.
    Aliens do communicate their brainwaves telepathically using cells in their skulls.
    Its almost as if the general was preternaturally inferring the same as above.

      At that point in the story, Earth was already lost and overrun with xenomorphs. Spears' plan was to cultivate an army of obedient xenomorphs, but it turned out that the queen alien had played him all along. She promptly kills him upon touchdown on Earth and leads her brood off to location unknown.

      Ancestors of Indians didn't use Elephants because they were too dangerous until they weren't, they were domesticated for military and other uses. Sure the original Alien from the Alien Cinematic universe was dangerous and use for military seems like a drunk person's pipe dream, so was the conquering of Elephants to an ancient ancient Indian. Eventually humanity could mass produce the means of suppression of an Alien's natural senses and force the Xenomorphs the work for us, as we have done for so many eras for other animals.

      Cobus Le Roux- No. It's not that simple. Animals need to posess a very strict set of charitaristics to be domesticated. Horses posess these charictatristis. Zebra for exsample don't. That is why humans didn't ride out of africa on the backs of zebra to conquor the world.
      Javier Powell Elephants cannot be domesticated. They can be tamed. It's not the same thing.

      The comic books are good, but you may be better served by purchasing the novels based on the original Dark Horse comics. The writers of the comics didn't foresee that Hicks and Newt were to be killed in Alien 3, so the novels change Hicks to "Wilks" and Newt to "Billie" and go from there. They're really fun reads. "Earth Hive", "Asylum", and "Female War".

    So what happens when the Xenomorphs inevitably find a way to break free? When there isn't a thick sheet of plexiglass in the way to protect the general from the queen when he threatens her eggs? My guess is that this experiment doesn't end well for the general, if nothing else then based on the fact that experiments involving live xenomorphs pretty much never end well for the one carrying out the experiment.

    I wonder if a good first step would be impregnating a DOG with a facehugger as your base rather than a human. I dunno too much about the xenomorphs, but perhaps fragments of the canine relationship with humans might make them see us as similar masters.
    I really just want the movie “Alpha” but on an alien planet with a lone space marine and an injured Xenomorph Dog.

      There is an Alien movie where a facehugger infects a dog. the xenomorph acts like a dog when moving, walking on four instead of two.

    I would LOVE to see Disney pull this off in a movie.

    Love your channel man!
    I had an idea that you might be interested in. I don't know how much effort it takes to publish a video, but maybe you could make a predator channel similar to this one. I haven't been able to find any channels like your but for predator.

    Great work as usual !
    I wonder what would happen that xenomorphs invaded a stone age or middle age level civilazation/alien race ?
    Make that happen Weyland-Yutani

    How do the drones decide when to kill and when to abduct for implantation?
