The connection between Alien and Blade Runner is that Peter Wayland first works under Elden Tyrel designing replicants but is let go for wanting to create more mechanical androids like David. That is cannon.
Predators are a rival species to the engineers only reason they had human DNA during one of the movie is because they were modifying their DNA 😂😂 they literally have warp drives and wormholes rivals engineer's technology
That connection is strictly fan produced. In reality, Blade Runner, Total Recall, Minority Report, and Vanilla Sky are related. None of them have any real connection to Alien or Predator.
@@IsaacHarvison-mt5xt Excuse me... but The Predator (2018) is kinda the stoopidest and the most shitty movie of the universe at all... It goes against lore from comic books and games in so many ways... The most important thing is that the Classic Predators (,,hunters") would never mix their DNA with another species because in their code it means something as heresy...

By dominate 1) other dangerous species in universe by the hunt and 2) other predator clans in bloody feuds. There are fully grown generations of ,,blooded" which doesn t know such life in peace and don't even know from where the technologies of their species are from... or what the science is... Only the elders knows these secrets. So such thought as the mutation with men is really out of mind... That the reason why the ,,elites/spearmasters" or ,,enforcers" are send everytime when there is predalien born anywhere in known universe. They call every hybridization between species as an ,,abomination" and they want to destroy it. Only the bad-bloods called ,,Killers" did this when they rebelled against other hunters and their Elders in long intergalactic war, started thousands years ago. They are also the ones who stolen xenomorph from Engineers and tried to train em as bio-weapons against other hunters. They also don't hold the rules of racial hygiene. They used the black goo, exploited from engineers to produce bio-material for repair of damaged parts of their genetics or to heel the wounds.
I do NOT understand the dislike for the Engineer aspect of this universe that some people have. I am obsessed with seeing more of the actual Engineers. Moore damnit.
Its to many plot holes like as if the xenomorphs are actually a perfect species it makes no sense and they all just get killed in the second movie for no reason
It makes way more sense to just have the xenomorphs be a random species in space they didn't need an overly complicated back story with a bunch of plot holes
@@josephperez7229 It all depends on what you consider canon to be. Some people say it is because Ridley Scott says it is and put a few references alluding to it in a few movies. Others say it isn't for multiple timeline errors (i.e. replicants from BR were created in 2000, Prometheus states that Weylan had the idea in 2023 and created David in 2079) and also the fact that Ridley Scott didn't come up with the Blade Runner Universe, he took it from a book called Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep written by Phillip K Dick in 1968.
Not sure if anyone has said this but the song you choose for these videos is just absolutely perfect. It encapsulates the mysterious nature of these videos. I love it
Agree‼️ Kroft tells like no other. Engineers story cut short was a major bummer. I wonder if the predators ever ran into the Engineers, since they have similar technology and galactic travel capabilities 🤔
ok, this is fantastic, i now need a supercut edit of all of this material that is in video format into one long 15 hour or more video of everything in order. because i would watch it at least once a year. this is perfect.
It wouldve been cool if engineers and Predators were mortal enemies, the engineers created the aliens to destroy other races but the Predators were able to defeat them.
That's kinda what ends up happening simply through circumstance. Engineers make multiple attempts to destroy (their creation) humanity via black goo/alien tech. Predators may hunt humans, but they will also work with us to defeat aliens and so by default, frustrate Engineer ambitions. Yautcha then become the number 1 antagonist of the Engineers by default. Humanity is merely the number 1 *target* species of the Engineers (as I suppose we remain their most 'disappointing', yet resilient, creation).
@@hayleylongster4698the way I see it, the Engineers tinkered with the Predators just like they did with us, but the Predators managed to break free and want to go after everything Engineer-related out of revenge. It's one of the reasons they hunt us and are modifying their DNA with ours; they're gearing themselves up for Ragnarok, the coming Godwar between themselves and the Engineers. That's why they're breeding themselves up for size (like that huge Predator in the 2017 movie), to match up with the physical capabilities of the 15-foot tall Alpha caste (Space Jockey) The Engineers are pretty arrogant if you think about it. They want hero worship and call it 'paradise' and are willing to exterminate entire species when they don't receive it from them.
It seems that Alien films and Blade Runner are one timeline, but Predator is separate. Alien vs Predator would belong in the latter's universe. So xenomorphs exist in Predator-verse but they're not the same as Alien franchise xenomorphs. The main contradiction between Predator and Alien universes isn't even David story or Wayland, but rather the timeline of human development. Prometheus extras and Blade Runner clearly indicate civilisation on Earth advanced much faster than IRL, whereas in Predator, the early 21 century looks just like our own.
Not all sections of LA have to look futuristic in Blade Runner and the spinners are almost exclusively used by law enforcement and the military. Civilians are restricted to ground travel. I think people have a hard time tying in the backdrops when certain things aren't specifically mentioned in all the concerned movies. I also unofficially tie in the movie Outland to the overall lore and rationalize that the dancers in the Con-Am leisure club are pleasure model replicants.
Doesn't Predator 2 take place in a semi-futuristic version of Los Angeles? That would probably align with the rate of technological development portrayed in Blade Runner. The Predator I guess would contradict all this though. I don't really think that Blade Runner is in the same universe as Alien though, since there isn't really much proof aside from a few comments by Ridley Scott comparing the two series', and obviously the Tyrell Corporation connection, but that could just be an easter egg. Maybe there's just another corporation in the Alien verse called the Tyrell Corporation, but idk.
Thing about David tho, that people overlook as far as plot holes go is he didn't create the xenomorphs, he just followed a blueprint the engineers had. Literally in Prometheus we see a xenomorph mural 0:53
Hey kroft, amazing stuff as usual. You might want to consider naming your timeline 1.1, 1.2 etc given itll be updated after every 2-3 films. Just a thought, Keep up the great stuff.
Honestly I don't know why anyone ever thought he did. Even just in the prequel films he alludes to reverse engineering rather than outright creation. Which is ofc ironic, considering that creation proper is his ultimate goal. --- Probably why he continued experimenting on colonists forever!
Thank you for helping me make the flintlock in Prey make sense.. a trophy taken from a human, returned to one - lost again by a human - and ultimately given to Harrigan
Just one word - BRILLIANT! Wow,all Alien/Predator fans should bow to the time and effort you put into this piece.I enjoyed everything single second. Well done and a huge thank you for all your hard work. 100 out of 10 stars, Loved It. Thank you so very much! ❤

Kroft, absolutely amazing. I very much appreciate your devotion to these linked franchises over the years. Captivating subject matter done true justice by amazingly connecting the dots between these various franchises, well done!
I love this channel, the background music is so mysterious and fits this so well, I also have a giant thirst to know what Ridley wanted to do with the engineer storyline and David I was interested in this and still am
Wow Kroft amazing video!! Seriously loved this entire history rundown… I still my fav film franchise of all time. Always good to get more lore uncovered and pointed out
The fact that the last surviving Engineer hid in cryo sleep just like every final survivor of an alien movie is one of those dope subtle nuances that i look for in movies
Videos on the engineers origins, interactions with other species, and the engineer precursor alien species they base their tech on would be lovely. Untapped lore. Make it up.
I knew in your past videos you talked about Soldier being in the same universe as Aliens, but couldn’t remember now I can say I’m so excited you made this connected Timeline video!! Wow!
My theory about David is that he didn’t create xenomorphs but stumbled upon the “recipe” for them. That’s why it’s slightly different than your typical xeno. He added or subtracted some spices from the recipe.
I love this content. It occurred to me I haven't seen a few of these movies. Could you update your video notes to include all the movie titles in chronological order?
Predators are a rival species to the engineers and should be that it was a separate franchise they have technology that can be argued that surpasses engineers
Holy shit man! This video is so awesome and in depth. But, you forgot to include Firefly and Serenity, which also take place in the same universe as the Alien Franchise.
This is a gas video! Better than the one that was being pushed on my recommendation feed. They kept saying AvP is just a spin off and non canon. MY GUY it’s literally alllllll canon 😂
Kroft, we need a full Alien: Romulus review on steroids, I’m talking Easter eggs, your likes and dislikes of the film, future theories etc lol. By the way I haven’t even watched this video yet but I already liked it 👍, will watch it in full another time. Love all your stuff! Cheers 🫡
@@kroft_movies No problem! I saw it yesterday night, gonna see it again next week! I really liked it, the first 20 minutes were a bit slow but I still liked the world building of it all. The last 20 minutes was bonkers lol, really curious to hear your thoughts on that. I wonder what that ending means for the future of the Alien franchise and how Weyland Yutani might react to such discovery if they find out haha.
I still cannot believe how Alien: Covenant is as to this day a direct prequel to Alien (1979) but we got Alien: Romulus as a sequel to Alien (1979) instead of closing the prequels with a good movie to see how we got to the events in Alien (1979).
I love the acknowledgment of the the aliens vs predator game that came out in 2010. That was my official introduction to the series. I still can’t consider blade runner to be apart of the series due to timeline discrepancies.
No, the way I look at it in the novel tie-in I'm writing is that when Weyland lost the battle at the Tann/Hauser gate when his company joined 2 other corporations in trying to claim exclusive use of the gate, only to be beaten by UN forces, he was spurred on to create a patent for an FTL drive. The mutiny of the Nexus 6 combat team during the battle also convinced him to develop synthetic instead of biological androids. World War Terminus (from PKD's novel) is where I consider this timeline and our own to diverge. WWT grew from the Vietnam War and went nuclear in many parts of the world. Weyland, Tyrell and a bunch of entrepreneurs began developing advances in technology, which allowed this timeline to outpace our own by a sizable margin.
For the record, I don't believe the new-model Soldiers (in the movie 'Soldier') are replicants. I believe they're gene-tailored humans, modified at the zygote stage, and raised in an identical fashion to the originals. Replicants aren't born; they're created from scratch using sophisticated biomedical algorithms from a levo amino acid protein base and coaxed into expression. First, they were gestation in tanks (taking about 3 months per subject) and later the process is upgraded to being organically 3D printed (shortening the time to about a week, give or take, with an additional week for DNI training) before being released. The 4 year lifespan, the way I've thought it up, was established because the Nexus 3s ended up with severe mental instabilities due to a design flaw; to enhance their physical strength beyond the baseline norm, they were designed so that adrenaline constantly circulated in their bloodstream instead of only during crisis situations so that muscles always achieved near 100% contraction. The problem with this was it constantly affected the amygdala, keeping the replicant in a hyper-alert state. They couldn't get any meaningful rest and, as a result, they became psychotic. These 3s were the reason for the establishment of the Blade Runners. To try and mitigate the damage they coukd cause, the Lamin protein in the cells of their internal organs and musculature was replaced with Lamin Epsilon B, which only maintained the nucleic integrity of the host cells for 4 years before breaking down. Basically, those cells aged much faster than the other ones in their bodies. I also figured out a way to make Wallace's Nexus 9s obedience make sense.
Wow Kroft, thank you ! I had no idea of the breadth & depth of the 'lnterlinked' universes ! Thanks also for the Romulus spoiler alert, as l haven't seen it yet. Amazing research.
Great breakdown. And I am delighted to discover so many "fan" films that i had not knowb about that I now have to watch. I have seen a couple but didnt realize that there were so many out there that I haven't seen or heard of. Thx
Blade Runner is my favorite movie of all time, and I didn't realize that Soldier was a spinoff considered to be set in the same universe until this video. Cheers!
this is the video I've been waiting for. Predators as alien universe characters is awesome. I'll bet they engineered them with an aligator or something similar.
Unlike the synthetics which the Xenomorphs destroy on sight, the Replicants being alive can be used as hosts. Though they are built stronger and tougher than humans though they burn out very fast too have a better chance of surviving the hatching process.
I have a theory!.... As we see cloning in Alien Resurrection, one Weyland is the original human, the rest are all clones, this would also apply to Bishop II in Alien 3....... The name Bishop could be applied in reference to the Chess Piece that is placed next to the King..... It would also tie in the son theory, the son could be a clone or biological son, because David and Weyland have an element of a father son relationship. 🤔

I love the acknowledgment of the the aliens vs predator game that came out in 2010. That was my official introduction to the series. I still can’t consider blade runner to be apart of the series due to timeline discrepancies.
No, the way I look at it in the novel tie-in I'm writing is that when Weyland lost the battle at the Tann/Hauser gate when his company joined 2 other corporations in trying to claim exclusive use of the gate, only to be beaten by UN forces, he was spurred on to create a patent for an FTL drive. The mutiny of the Nexus 6 combat team during the battle also convinced him to develop synthetic instead of biological androids.
World War Terminus (from PKD's novel) is where I consider this timeline and our own to diverge. WWT grew from the Vietnam War and went nuclear in many parts of the world. Weyland, Tyrell and a bunch of entrepreneurs began developing advances in technology, which allowed this timeline to outpace our own by a sizable margin.
For the record, I don't believe the new-model Soldiers (in the movie 'Soldier') are replicants. I believe they're gene-tailored humans, modified at the zygote stage, and raised in an identical fashion to the originals. Replicants aren't born; they're created from scratch using sophisticated biomedical algorithms from a levo amino acid protein base and coaxed into expression. First, they were gestation in tanks (taking about 3 months per subject) and later the process is upgraded to being organically 3D printed (shortening the time to about a week, give or take, with an additional week for DNI training) before being released.
The 4 year lifespan, the way I've thought it up, was established because the Nexus 3s ended up with severe mental instabilities due to a design flaw; to enhance their physical strength beyond the baseline norm, they were designed so that adrenaline constantly circulated in their bloodstream instead of only during crisis situations so that muscles always achieved near 100% contraction. The problem with this was it constantly affected the amygdala, keeping the replicant in a hyper-alert state. They couldn't get any meaningful rest and, as a result, they became psychotic. These 3s were the reason for the establishment of the Blade Runners. To try and mitigate the damage they coukd cause, the Lamin protein in the cells of their internal organs and musculature was replaced with Lamin Epsilon B, which only maintained the nucleic integrity of the host cells for 4 years before breaking down. Basically, those cells aged much faster than the other ones in their bodies.
I also figured out a way to make Wallace's Nexus 9s obedience make sense.
@@timothybeaulieu5103 Well, that's interesting. It's definitely more insightful than just an unspecified malfunction, thank you.
lets gooooooo Kroft
Damn I didn't know there were so many canon short films out there.
I've listened to your channel so much I associated this music with the franchise lol and you get OG fan credit
what is the name of the music
Wow Kroft, thank you ! I had no idea of the breadth & depth of the 'lnterlinked' universes ! Thanks also for the Romulus spoiler alert, as l haven't seen it yet. Amazing research.
I really enjoy the timeline video of making both franchises into one universe. It was really enjoyable.👍🤘😎
Great breakdown. And I am delighted to discover so many "fan" films that i had not knowb about that I now have to watch. I have seen a couple but didnt realize that there were so many out there that I haven't seen or heard of. Thx
Wow, great work!
This is amazing. I need to watch all those Alien short films.
Love avp was always curious about its timeline you broke this down perfectly
Blade Runner is my favorite movie of all time, and I didn't realize that Soldier was a spinoff considered to be set in the same universe until this video. Cheers!
this is the video I've been waiting for. Predators as alien universe characters is awesome. I'll bet they engineered them with an aligator or something similar.
For years I have been watching your videos and brother you always do a great job. I love your content keep up the amazing work.
Fantastic work, thank you
I don't get why Engineers hated humans but spared Predators.
The 'Neighbours'-era footage of Guy Pearce was great. Now there's a tv show that coulda done with a few xenomorphs to spice things up!
Romulus, Dark Descent, the Rage! Refreshing to see. Please do another, including titan books if you have the ability
Yes please make a more in depth video! This one was amaaaaaaazing !
Loved this - so well done!
Unlike the synthetics which the Xenomorphs destroy on sight, the Replicants being alive can be used as hosts. Though they are built stronger and tougher than humans though they burn out very fast too have a better chance of surviving the hatching process.
Thank you that was deep 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽👍🏽
I have a theory!....
As we see cloning in Alien Resurrection, one Weyland is the original human, the rest are all clones, this would also apply to Bishop II in Alien 3.......
The name Bishop could be applied in reference to the Chess Piece that is placed next to the King.....
It would also tie in the son theory, the son could be a clone or biological son, because David and Weyland have an element of a father son relationship. 🤔
I always wondered if the predators were aware of the engineers
