I also made my own VHS box edit that I uploaded on my Instagram a couple of days ago. I didn't upload it here, but here it is.

No, I didn't print it.

Yes I agree. And it's a perfect time to watch Resurrection on a Easter weekend. :D

Yeah I can definitely see that scenario happen! Those swarms of (maybe reverse-engineered judging by the new design) facehuggers looked nasty in the teaser.

 I fully, wholeheartedly and without any doubt support your decision Chris! Sure it has some uh.. "minor" issues like the dialogue sometimes but on the other hand notice how the camera angles are beautifully shot, impressive animatronics and its unique take on Ripley, also showcasing Weaver's acting range.

At the very least it stands out in the series as its own thing, for the better or worse.

Alien Resurrection has grown on me over the years, still my least favorite of the Alien series by far, but it has its moments. I should give it a rewatch this weekend as well haha.

In response to the OP, I think it’s highly plausible that WY could find and extract Big Chap given the last known Nostromo coordinates, scanning technology, etc... the Xenomorph / Black Goo is their primary focus, investing over a Trillion dollars in research for it. You bet they're going to comb every inch of space they can to find their next meal ticket. Ripley on the other hand, was simply a blue collar worker, they had no interest in recovering her whatsoever, they probably saw her pod floating through space and ignored her, assuming it would tie up a loose end. 

So for that argument, I'm not overly concerned about the likelihood of finding Big Chap in space.

As for the Hyperdyne Systems Android, I suspect it's either a flashback sequence OR a busted up version found and brought back online in the Romulus station. Perhaps when they do, the Android warns them of the outbreak which occurred or whatever happened to cause the station to be abandoned.

My initial concerns were in response to the younger crew, but after watching the teaser, I don't have such a concern anymore, I'm more optimistic now than I was a year ago, for sure.

ChrisAlien: Romulus ForumDirector confirms what the title Romulus means in Alien: Romulus

I wouldn't say it isn't connected at all, but just not directly to Romulus. Which means we'll likely have no reference of the "Prodigy Corporation" in Romulus, but I'm sure there will be Weyland-Yutani references in the show.

I definitely think it's another instance of someone being trapped in a room (with Facehuggers I bet) and the remaining crew being like "nu uh we gotta close the door". Definitely.

I'm thinking things will wake up around here when we have a full trailer. Here's to hoping. Since this isn't a sequel to any other movie and teaser is literally that, a teaser. There's just isn't much to sink into with it right now. I have mixed feelings about the teaser but gotta say they have done well In keeping much of the movie a mystery. 

If I had to guess come Alien day we'll get a full trailer

I've heard pretty much the opposite. That they did indeed CGI Ian Holm. I have literally 0 issue with another twitchy A/2... just really don't want to see CGI Ian Holm. I really wish Hollywood and Disney especially would get over that.

I rewatch Alien Resurrection today lol and I enjoy it. And it comes to my mind that Ripley has become more affectionate to the Xenomorph and Android (Call), while calling the human as real "monster".

I still hope the prequel series (Prometheus part 3) will see the light of the day. I believe after Romulus, audience will appreciate the huge world that Ridley has created. And David is such a bad ass character that deserve a trilogy to complete its own prequel saga.  

Reply
Neomorph Alien: Romulus ForumDid you notice the Battle Damaged Xenomorph?

Very observant!

[SPOILERS]

 

Could it even be the original big chap who's awakened and recovered? That'd be my primary guess. According to the leaks it was in rough shape but not dissected right? A wild guess is that 'Ol Chap wakes up during or after the process of extracting the black goo, and goes on a killing spree. 

Or, a new xenomorph emerges and I guess it's then either damaged by hazardous  environment or a glancing shot from an upward or downward angle (vent shootout maybe)

Those are my two cents!

Well from what I hear from AVP Galaxy, its not exactly Ash but another android from the same Hyperdyne A series. His name is going to be called Rook

I tend to avoid watching Alien Resurrection unless I'm doing a series-wide marathon, from which I skip the AVP movies... unless they reboot the AVP films and set it in the future

XenotarisAlien: Romulus ForumIs Romulus near LV-223? Prometheus connection?

I always assumed it was the dead Space Jockey that activated the distress signal

Reply
Neomorph Alien: Romulus ForumIs Romulus near LV-223? Prometheus connection?

The only thing I can think of is the derelict ship still transmitting an automated repeating signal on all frequencies a long time after the space jockey died.

I am still curious who exactly sent the "warning" signal to the Nostromo. It was never explicitly mention in the movie.

Speaking of Alien Resurrection, I think it is such a cult classic. It's lighthearted and somewhat ridiculous but professionally executed. The bonding of Alien and Ripley is such a joy to watch.

Yeah hopefully he won't be allowed to direct another Alien film even though I'll admit I kind of liked his Event Horizon as a guilty pleasure kind of like Alien Resurrection.

Good to see you as well ninXeno426, hopefully more veterans well return as well as new users. I've done a bit of marketing on another site with a poll and then smoothly/passive-aggressively recommending scified in my sig there.

Regarding Ash I'm not sure if it's a good idea to include him but for the reason that it'll likely be a predictable outcome (i.e evil intentions, yet again) and predictability is never good in a horror film, or at least kept to s minimum. 

As for OG Alien turned Frozen Chappie it's a bit of a stretch indeed but I can buy it if they do it in a convincing manner.

Yeah this is a tough one but I vote Prometheus simply it was a return to form after what Paul W S Anderson did to AVP

A couple years ago I said Alien needed a back to basics approach in the vein of Halloween 2018. I don't want to regret saying that. I already almost do

Hello Neomorph. Glad to see you're still haunting these halls as well. 

My concern is that after the prequels came in perhaps a little too heavy with their philosophy, Romulus will attempt to play things a little too safe by saddling the movie with too much nostalgia bait. Kind of like Rise of Skywalker. We almost already have a "Somehow Palpatine returned" moment hinted at. Also after stating it's a stand alone movie, Alvarez has turned around and said there's significant ties to pretty much all the movies.

My guess is that those rings belong to the gas giant Calpamos, which makes sense location-wise as the events in Romulus unfold between the first two films, the latter both taking place on LV-426, one of Calpamos' moons. 

Calpamos and its three moons LV-426, LV-223 and an unknown moon.

The gas giant and its rings and one moon vaguely seen from LV-426.
