lol, a mistake, an error!

Ok what I think you want is this... In Aliens, Ripley Discovers there is a Queen Laying Eggs. In Alien Resurrection there is No Egg Laying, The Creature is now giving birth, like a Human. Ripley has become the creatures Grand Mother!

lol sparky, nope.

the only thing i can think of is the alien embryo blocks the scanner,but in alien 3 we get an embryo close up. of course the former happens in Alien and is therefore the wrong answer,even tho a discrepancy

good point thad, but nope.

ok lets think about this...what happens in Aliens that doesnt happen in Alien the queen gateway station atmos processors alien behavior

rreaching thad, you're reaching lol

Lmao you do like your tricksy questions Snork lol

Thad12, I don't think that was a discrepancy. I think the embryos show up on scanners just fine. Ash was lying and hiding the embryo in Alien because if he showed the crew what was growing on they would have not treated him like he was fine when he finally came out of the coma. They may have wanted to strictly quarantined him or even try to kill the yet unborn chestburster or Cain himself.

Something to do with Newt & Hicks' corpses?

i do thad, biomechanic, do you fancy a stab at this lol

@EP - nope

I'll think about it but I am not too hip on the James Cameron Aliens or the later ones.

chicken lol

Yeah fair point Bio,he was programmed to protect it after all

Haha trying to goat me into the game?

@ Biomechanic, yeah, whats up are you yellow (whoops wrong film series) lol.

there was something about ripleys daughters age i used to wonder about but can't remember it now.. but at the time it was glaringly obvious to me.

Trying I am but you know I haven't even seen Alien Resurrection or any of the AVP stuff so I think that may be a problem.

@ Tec-B - think sparky tried that one earlier, anyways nope.

I said the age thing with her daughter already

@ Biomechanic - It may, or may not, that would be giving too much info and make the question too easy.

Okay here is my try: Okay hmm I read the Resurrection synopsis and it says they were able to breed aliens? So That seems different then the queen idea in aliens. Is that the discrepancy? Sorry that is all I got.

sorry BM, another nope.

come on guys, this is an easy one.

can we get another clue please?

There were only 3-4 actors present during the scene in question.

Ok, here is another shot at it without any new hint... This, in and of itself should be the answer.... In a famous scene, restored only in the director's cut of ALIENS, Ellen Ripley looks at a photograph of her daugter, only to find out from Carter Burke that the child died while Ripley was in hypersleep. The foreshadowing was that Ripley would later become a Mother again of sorts, but this time for the Monster itself. It is a Continuity issue because that scene never appeared in the theatrical release of the film.

and the more I think of this the more I am drawn back to near the end of the film in Which Bishop gets ripped apart by the Queen. How could the Queen have possibly had enough room where it was hiding in the drop ship to lay another egg? We clearly seer the Queen Laying her eggs via the assistance of a massive ambiblical tube, so if there is an EGG present on the Sulaco at the start of Alien 3 how in the hell did it get there ? It effects the Resurrection film in that they had to get around that mistake in order to get to a point where the creature is now Birthing like a human.

Is it something to do with Hicks?

nice try sparky but no. regards the two eggs you're talking about in alien 3, allegedy there was 1 in the landing gear of the Dropship and 1 in the EEV, supposedly left behind by the Queen while she was hiding. Thats what they say, but this has nothing to do with the question or answer.

@ Marty - You tell me, lol.

Ok have no clue if im way off the mark as im not sure if we have a "proper" pic of the dead Hicks in his cryo tube in Alien 3 anyways...could it be that in Aliens the bandage we see Hicks wearing is over one eye(cant remember which) but at the Start of 3 its over the other?

@ Marty - Nope.

Damn..I feel like 85 now!

guess what sparky... nope.

This conversation has always seemed way way way way off to me Hudson: Is this gonna be a standup fight, sir, or another bughunt? Gorman: All we know is that there's still no contact with the colony, and that a xenomorph may be involved. Frost: Excuse me sir, a-a what? Gorman: A xenomorph. Hicks: It's a bughunt. How does Hicks even THINK of using that word, it's so wrong, it is such a mistake, he's a Marine not a door to door pest exterminator? He would never have said that off the top of his head like that, and also, It also heavily foreshadows the form the creature would take in Alien3. Marty, I understand how you feel and I think my own IQ must be hoerving around "85" as well today!!!

still nope sparky.

Snorkel is this a visual discrepency?

Maybe, maybe not? I'm not handing it to you guys on a plate, that said you'll kick yourselves when the answer comes to light.
