Hive- how the engineers died.

@ Grinning & Ingeniero - we're on the same page regarding the idiot meter.

@SteveRogers1973

I just wish there were more of us on this page lol

@Grinning & Dropping Linen, @suwhited, i agree too that the engineers were created by a higher being(s) also, shaw says to holloway "but who created them?" so there is a clue there.

The LV-223 engineers are a rebel faction that are going against their creator by messing around with creating black goo abominations as weapons? I believe there is a war going on between the two factions(enlil and enki?) if the 223 engineers win then the destruction would be enormous, they want control of everything, you just have to look how everything is structured in society, when is it not about control? 

@Ingeniero, yes a new topic, "Overpaid Unintelligent Celebrities you would like to see Facehugged".

hahaha what a hoot it would be!

I thought of the Queen head cap too, when I saw the top edge of the poster. I don't think Ridley would include a Queen though.

I can see how people may see the Queen but to me i see the Trilobite more and attached to the Background like Hive, and one of its Tentacles is attacking a Engineer.

Ridley and Lindeloff did tease the Trilobite to be the Ancestor of the Xenomorph, the Mural has a Deacon which has the Queens Carapace above it, in a way that we can make out a Queen Deacon or normal Deacon as it can appear as either.

The Mural we have to assume was not a Prophecy but a Ancient Event... if we assume this then indeed Trilobites existed before.

Shaws Trilobite would not be a One Off Event, if in the Ancient Past Engineers had Females which Alien Covenant shows us.

If we assume David is to Re-create or Create the Xenomorph, then we have to consider what starting point does he have?

And he has Shaw and you would be sure he would have wanted to know the Outcome of her Trilobite... and so this could be a Experiment he would want to Re-create be it with Shaw or any Female Engineers he may find.

There will be no hive as we know it from Aliens or the comic books in covenant. 

Nor a queen. This picture is most likely another mural even displayed in some engineer architecture somewhere around on paradise.

The connections with the paintings and artwork of biblical vision of the lost paradise, fallen angels, path from heaven to hell / pandemonium etc that others have discussed do correlate very well tho.

There might be a hive, we just have to wait for the movie.

We could, but there wont be^^

Pandemonium

Is also the name given to the City in Hell that holds the Palace of Satan and where he Rules Hell from.

If the movie shows us that Paradise had became the Place of the Fallen Engineers then indeed Paradise could had been turned into Pandemonium
