Alien: Earth and Alien: Romulus sequel news

I had an epiphany while watching Alien

Enxeno Man

So lets pretend for a moment that we take Ridley on his word, and the planet the Juggernaut is crashing on in the trailers is indeed LV-223, and NOT LV-426. I will then assume that the Juggernaut is not the Derelict, and was NOT piloted by the Jockey getting into the chair that is shown in those same previews. While watching Alien last night, I studied the Jockey on the derelict, and I am inclined to feel like, much as some of you have already argued, that the Alien Jockey's arms are just too long to be chalked up to creative license. This could all be negated if, in that actual film, we see additional bio-mechanical armor rise from the chair to attach to his arm, but I'm not thinking so. My epiphany was this: the mohawk guy who seems to suddenly feel inclined to grow incredibly oblong features, turn pseudo-blue/grey, and commence mass murder may very well be slowly changing into an Engineer/Jockey, and isn't successfully put down in that fight. Later on, when the crew's focus is on stopping the living Engineer from piloting the Juggernaut off to commit his genocide, the extremely long-armed, now Engineer-ified mohawk guy climbs into a second ship, ultimately dubbed the Derelict, and attempts to carry out the same task. But, being the long armed newborn idiot he is, (or for whatever reason) disturbs the ship's cargo as he lumbers toward the chair, and is facehugged by his own weapon. Also, I've considered the possibility that, though its not a part of Ridley's canon, that the image of what appears to be a Xeno (and I think a queen looking at hips) is indeed rising out of the black primordial liquid...perhaps into existence? Okay forum police: FLAME ON!

Unless they opt for the time travel cheese, not going to happen.

Very straw clutching lately I must admit ... I think we've exhausted most (if not all) the great theories ... even you guys who's been here from day one and been doing it since LAST YEAR lol ... damn what you must have seen over, what?, a years period??? ... :) ... that's a few scripts for potential movies I'll give you that ... I've exhausted myself I know that much ... just looking forward to seeing the movie now ... stocked right up gotta be said ... never happened to me before for ANY movie ... more to do with Ridders returning to Sci-Fi more than anything ... even though he may not say he's a SciFi director ... he's done my 2 best ever ... roll on Blade Runner ... What about their pet hamster bursting into someone? ... it's going in and not out ... different direction ... that's new no? ... :) ...

"Where precisely did you see a Queen like xeno rising out of the black goo???", asks david Attenborough.

Is it not possible that a jumped up little up start tried and at first succeds in getting into the 'Chair' as we all know the Space Jockey ends up in eventually to become fossilized but before that happens doring the events somewhere in Prometheus - probably towards the end - there is someone else who gets into the 'Chair' AT FIRST, but then the suprise is the ACTUAL thing/person/being who is and will become to be known as 'THE' Space Jockey for what ever reason attacks the upstart that is in the chair and a great big 'Final Battle' of sorts ensues... Much like the ending of Blade Runner if you will. It puts a twist upon things. The first 'One' gets displaced from the 'Seat/Chair' by the second 'One' only to be left to make his ultimate rendevous with his future destiny as a calcified fossil sat upon an 'ancient' galactic rocking chair!

Im really curious what the last 8 minutes will tell about that. Maybe [i]just another[/i] SJ race is firing up a last Derelict/ Juggernaut full of eggs ( because Shaw or whoever survives manages it to heroically kill the smaller SJs) and crash lands on LV-426 where the Nostromo finds it.

I was reading you in disagreement, cause I doubt Fifield turns into a SJ but more into a 'hunchback psycho that dies grilled and chopped'... however, when I came to reading "But, being the long armed newborn idiot he is, disturbs the ship's cargo as he lumbers toward the chair [...]" I totally changed my mind. Now, I want precisely that, calmly narrated by David Attenborough in those exacts words...

Actually there is no one getting in to the chair. If you watch the clip the SJ is actually getting out of the chair

Thats true TheNext LV426, whay has no-one thought about the idea that there was already someone in the 'chair' when the entire apparatus appears ans rises up out of the floor. Good one for that observation TheNext LV426! Well done for that!
