^For me it might be the opposite

Awesome! Nexus Dawn. I love its title.

Ingeniero - So many topics by you, it is impossible to consume all of them! :D

MU/TH/UR - Fantastic post! I believe that it is NOT an easter egg!

Ingeniero thanks for the link, I have embedded it into the OP for convenience :)

Here's an example:

Alien 

Star Wars

I love Star Wars,James Bond,Star Trek,The Lord of the Rings etc.They just don't compare to Alien for me at least.

CAN YOU COUNT SUCKAS!!!!(Yes i can,and Big Dave is mia lol)

No pain Bishop... I like the version suggesting that he is an android.

drucea - Possible!

TheXenoneoprotomorph - Who knows? :)

VivisectedEngineer - True! The whole image resembles Bishop's dead facehuggers from Aliens - a little bit...

Ingeniero - Thank you! You are not the only one, I like that embryo image very much.

I like the Alien franchise, but there are plenty of others I like just as much if not more.

I know and I hope so too. I think he might get a chuckle if he sees this though.

I hope BigDave is ok, he had disappeared before the breakdown.

drucea - Ha! I thought the same! :)

Ingeniero - My pleasure!

Everybody, thank you for the images.

drucea - 'I'm with you all on the one black goo theory.' 'Thnaks for posting the breakdown chart as well.  It was a lot easier to comprehend than some of the infographic charts out there lol.'

Thank you very much! I'm glad that there are more members here who mention that the chart is useful.

'Do not overcomplicate it.' - that should be our key idea. (It is complex and complicated enough!) :D 

Kethol - 'I don't agree at all that this is the same form of the pathogen that we saw infect Holloway or Fifield'

Ok! I see your point. This is my opinion: people, fans, etc over-explain the Holloway infection because of the sexual factor. I strongly believe that the fact that he had sex with Shaw is not so important. In the mirror scene we see the small trilobite in his eye, and I think that he would have given birth to the bigger trilobite if he had not passed it to Shaw. Do you remember the concept art showing the trilobite bursting out from Holloway?

So I think he just passed it to Shaw. No sperm, no egg cells were involved in the process... The trilobite belongs to the group of the Hybridized creatures.

Johner- I'll take that knife back now.

Hello, Lone! Been a while since seeing that awesome eggplant avatar!

Don't forget though that GotG and Wonder Woman are both all-ages, feel-good Super-hero film with huge budgets and  Disney/Marvel/DC backing. 

I know its business but it really doesn't seem fair to compare it against a +15 sci-fi/horror film about aliens. 

The real problem is that Covenant did significantly worse than Prometheus at the box office, even with the Alien Prefix stapled to it.

All we can hope for is that Home Entertainment sales show a huge surge, showing the changing trends in viewer platforms away from cinema   

Welcome back Lone!

A L I E N 4 2 6 - 'The Deacon is basically just a Neomorph when you break it down this way' - Yes, I think you're right. We could say that. They both belong to the final group, the group of the Xenomorph-like hybridized creatures.

drucea - Exactly! And it's very interesting that the facehugger embryos have different colours! One of them is very brown. :) Does that produce queen?

I loved this Xeno death as well, showcased how hard it really is to kill one of these bitches.

Chris, thank you.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who likes Cosmonaut-Copper's works.

(Call is pissed as s#!t! She replies with voice slightly raised.  Johner is a little intimating... Still, Call's face easily says how pissed she is over that knife incident.)

"You are an inbred motherfucker, you know that?"

 (She didn't have to think hard for her reply since Johner looks like he's been part of some inbredding childhood.  It could also be because of his long lasting stand as a space pirate.  That's something Call can respect in way.  You don't live long in this lifestyle unless your good.  Either way, whether Johner is ugly or part of some piece of trash childhood, which is highly likely in today's world (that's if you want to acknowledge it), he's still a piece a $#!t personality wise. That f^cK&r.)

MU/TH/UR interesting indeed!

Ingeniero "Frankie" reminds me a bit of the brain-bug from Starship Troopers with that slug-like body and proboscis lol

Agreed.Love Alien way more than Star Wars so I'm on Ripley's side.My Brother is a Terminator fanatic so he's on Sarah Connor's side(though he once admitted Ripley is a better character than Sarah Connor)

I think this Xeno death won our recent poll from memory too.

Epic scene

I forgot about Sarah and Leia but you are right. They were all strong lead characters and it seemed natural and not forced. I lean toward Ripley and Sarah though since they were tough but only because they had to be- they were either scared to death or just pissed off. 

100% agree ninXeno426. Predator and Terminator franchises are great too, but Predator has been stuck going around in circles re-hashing the same premise, and Terminator films have been progressively getting worse since T2.

I love every single Alien film (not counting the AVPs), I honestly don't have a favourite.

You're also 100% right about everyone's obsession with Super-hero films....

but wait, the Avatar sequels are coming next....

The Tick LOL!F'ng hilarious!

Spider-Man 3 is a piece of sh!t lol.Prime candidate for worst super hero movie,and one of the worst movies ever made in my opinion.

Damn good point on Wonder woman,haven't seen it,but it's Hollywood's currently business model,empowering female leads.Be it Wonder Woman,Hunger Games,The past couple Star Wars movies,it's seems Hollywood has forgotten they've always been there.Ripley,Sarah Connor,and Princess Leia (RIP Carrie Fisher.)In the case of Leia, since everyone believes Force Awakens Rey and Rogue One's Jyn Erso are being considered better characters than Leia,but they wouldn't be here if Leia hadn't come first.But that's beside the point lol.

@Ingeniero

The best watched this summer of course. 

I half ass watched part of Spider Man 3 and part of another super hero years ago before giving up. All I remember was the guy playing Spidey was basically an whiney emo dude and it seemed like a coming of age movie theme wise. Another one seemed to have an overt anti corporate theme. I have read reviews about Wonder Woman being empowering- fine. Seems like Ripley did that back in 1979.

The ONLY super hero I support is The Tick! 

Johner- Oh, come on, you didn't feel a thing.

On film any way 

That above sure looks close (exact) to me. Awesome catch.

This image below is labeled "Frankie" in the Fauna section of David's drawings and could be an earlier form of the chestburster he was developing.
