A lot of fiction is filled with corrupt,greedy corporations.INGEN,Umbrella,Shinra inc,Aperture Science,UAC,and of course Weyland-Yutani.What does this say about real corporations,are they just as corrupt and greedy?Does mankind have a god complex?And seriously,look at some of those corporations i mentioned,the things they try to do always,ALWAYS,end in catastrophe.They always try things that just out of reach for mankind.They then seemingly achieve the impossible only for it to back fire spectacularly.And then they'll try again no matter what the cost.Weyland-Yutani for example just doesn't seem to understand just how dangerous the xenomorph really is.After all,they've killed pretty much everything anywhere they've gone.But it doesn't stop the company from trying.You decide,if you were with the company,when would say enough is enough.Or is there no such thing as something unattainable.Is weaponizing the xenomorph worth all the death and destruction they have wrought.

I am sure there are plenty of real corporations that are like this, it's because of greed. Don't wanna get political cause I hate that shit but we are living in it right now with this scumbag who's running this country, if you live in the US. Weyland-Yutani is in a way in the white house right now.

Except Weyland Yutani has a history of stopping climate change, curing cancer and developing FTL travel.

One thing i thought was a decent idea in Colonial Marine's was Weyland Yutani finally experimenting on the xenomorph.Unfortunately it wasn't done very well,but it did show just how far the company might go to weaponize the xenomorph.

Isolation also proved that they'd would attempt PR stunts in an effort to get the xenomorph.

But yes in the real world there is bound to be such corporations, and i indeed a lot of the World Rich would potentially have to use some underhand tactics now and again, its all part of the parcel....   Sometimes they have to do what benefits their personnel companies  and its one of the sad but true things about Globalization.

Especially since the dawn of Advanced Telecoms and Communications it opens up Markets for others that was not a option 30-50 years ago.

PS this is not like trying to go into Conspiracy theories and the like or about Governments just a comment on Corporations.

Well as far as Weyland-Yutani indeed they had done many things to help the Human Population,  Weyland had made many advancements in Medical Applications to our benefit and then also Terra-forming and building better Worlds to give people many chances of a new life and jobs.

The Xenomorph is a puzzle... as time goes on with the movies maybe more clues would be made to maybe give some answers to the hopeless pursuit... because as far as a Weapon it was a Bust... not as far as the risk.

But Prometheus opened the door for maybe the Xenomorph being the key to something else more than just a Bio-weapon.

Its a case to how far they connect this or IF they indeed cover and other reasons for such a pursuit.

Thank you for understanding the purpose of this topic BigDave.The idea was to examine just how far Weyland Yutani will go to acquire the Xenomorph,not real life politics.Weyland Yutani being a fictional corporation is within the boundaries of talking about Alien.Plus being a corporation its hardly political.No elected officials,just a company that fails to understand just how dangerous the Xenomorph is.I apologize to anyone this thread may have offended .Thank your BigDave for the input,it was what i was looking for when i resurrected it but perhaps it should have remained buried.Once again  i'm sorry:(

This site has opinions on it, if you don't like someone's opinion then disagree with it. People don't have the same opinion as other people if we wanna say someone is a scumbag, then it's our right. If you don't like it, who gives a shit. Fuck him who shall not be named. The current piece of shit who's in charge of this country.

all I see is an example of comparison he made, not start a political convo. plus I don't actually see u talk about anything xeno related, in fact, its the first post iv seen from urself kyleh. he is referencing corruption in weyland corp and how accurate it is to real life. if u have anything to contribute then by all means share it?
