is this what david has done to shaw?

Honestly I'm hoping the rumors of David experimenting on Shaw are either not true or exagerated, if the character has to go I hope it's at least with some dignity.

Welcome to Scified!

I certainly hope David does something like this to Shaw. It would serve her right for her pompous attitude that she "deserves" to know. Be careful what you wish for.

For me its the only thing that makes sense

If david makes the eggs then has to be shaw with her reproductive cycle whos able to get them done with his twisted sick exprimentations.

A protoxeno emerges..the facehugger is kinda like the one we know...very similar...so if there is no egg morphing in this one...no queen....think its very plausible shaw gonna be the one giving birth to it...and i think thats a scene they are saving...probably one of the more grotesque scenes we will get till now in a movie.

Thats why so much secrecy around her..no images...nothing...

Queen female laying eggs...i think would be nice to see how it started with shaw being the subject to davids principle of egg laying.

I discard all the rest that was said here in the forum regarding egg creating theories...for me shaw is the key for the egg creation.

Unless ridley pulls a genius move out of the hat that i cant think of..wich honeslty im not expecting

Just please dont make the urns turn into eggs by itself...that would be the stupidest thing of them all.

This may sound cool in theory but it's too exaggerated with all the other morphs in there already. A shawmorph would be too much and AC would turn into a horror freakshow.

She doesnt need to ne morphed..but she has ovaries...and it all points out that she is the special ingredient david needs..a sick twisted scene of her being manipulated while suffering under a evil twisted android mind eith no emotions and regards for human life.helpless in deep space...her body being violated and manipulated to breed a nee expriment is something that ridley could top off the chest burster scene.

I highly doubt the neomorph bursting scenes and shower scenes are the secret ridley was hinting about..they  showed some in trailer...this would be their play under the sleeve for shoking horror.

Shaw was unable to have children so it stands to reason she did not produce eggs in her ovaries or have reproductive capabilities. She also wasn't wearing dog-tags she was only wearing a cross around her neck so the shot with the away team examining the dog-tags could be someone else's. Just a thought  

It didnt stop her to breed the protofacehugger with Holloway infected sperm.

That woudnt be a problem.

I wonder what a feminist approach to Alien Covenant would look like?

I think its the way to go..i believe its the horroying scene ridley has in its sleeve in a form of flashback during david explanation or dialogue between walter or daniels with him finding out what he trully did to her

Theres a lot of giger feminine concepts that personally for me are the most horrifying works he made.

I woudnt be surprised shaw is the vessel for eggs based on feminist giger concepts and i would love to have them adpated in ac for the purpose of the eggs.

I think ,chli, the potential for shaw + eggs + david exprimentation scene is superb and horrifying..and would top every hardcore scene in alien franchise to date. :)

I wonder why Scott always wants a female heroine (Ripley, Daniels)?

I'd very much like to see this, for the Giger link as much as anything!  Would potentially also fit the plot and be a away to bring about the eggs possibly . . .

I'm no doctor but I think a woman can produce eggs but still be infertile - still as we're hypothetically bringing goo and/or Engineer tech into this who knows what could be possible?

I also think it could be a very disturbing scene that could be the 'ace' up RS and this films sleeve as far as being a scifi/horror classic - especially if Shaw is 'technically still alive' . . .

Yes indeed.alien allways give us heroines....and curiously the top of hierarchy in xeno specie to date is a queen..female again..

Its obvious they take huge roles and consideration under ridley and the franchise..its intriguingly in the dna of the franchise..but expecting more substance to it.

Daniels has to have some sort of connection to ripley otherwise this is totally a heroine only franchise. Ripley,shaw,daniels whats next :D

Tiago: Emelie? :)

Ahah ye lets not forget that they bringing back newt for alien 3(5) so ye females seem to rule on this one
