What does this mean?
I hadn't seen this yet and I wasn't sure if someone posted a link to the new video below.
If the 20th Century Fox video originally tied the flora and fauna seen in David's notes to Origae-6 then Planet 4 may have been the original target all along. The video was later edited to remove the title and implied link.
His lab is dope. I wish there will be an Alien Covenant PS4 game where we can explore David's lab and solve the mystery and stuffs.
Correct Thombach. A little bit fluffy in regards to anything we haven't seen before.
Why wouldn't they include David's lab in the VR experience Jonesy?
I'm sure you'll be able to take a tour of it once the Alien: Covenant virtual reality is released.
Ingeniero - No, no, no! I just said that because you had mentioned that there were no secrets in the video!
The issue is that David's studies appear to happen on Origae-6 according to the title flashed.
You're great Ati. I should have read closer.
Please tell me what "Flora and Fauna of Origae-6" means?
Is this an answer to planet confusion?
Not sure if it was in the movie, but did anyone catch this as David went down into his lab? On the wall of the stairs looks like the Engineers sacrificial bowl with cup in it setting on a shelf. Also, I wonder what he means by the never meant to serve quote. Is David revealing there really is some kind of sub-programming waiting to be unlocked (to be able to create)? Or is it one of his delusions that he was actually meant to be a god?
And why would it be labelled as Flora and Fauna of Origae-6 if they haven't been there yet? Now I'm hoping they release teasers like this all the way up to the next movie to keep me entertained at work.
Was David 8's lab and "Flora and Fauna of Origae-6" sent before the Covenant crew left Earth or at least before they arrived on the planet David 8 is on?
Did David 8 send this message from a secure link inside himself to guide the mission to his planet?
How would David 8 film this on the way out?
There are multiple special orders flashed in David 8's message to Weyland-Yutani Corporation.
The bowl you mention above drucea is a lavender-like balm David 8 made to counter the ammonia smell from the eggs below. He convinced Captain Oram to rub some of it below his nose to relax him in preparation for the horror of a facehugger he met shortly after.
Thanks Ingeniero, completely forgot about that little bit.
Just thinking in text now, I'm trying to come up with a scenario where David would have been able to swap Origae-6 and Planet 4 either in WY's plans, or somehow made WY think they were headed off to Origae-6 with the Covenant ship, only to be intercepted by David as they passed "near" his planet (Planet 4).
The only thing I'm not sure how to place, is at the end of the movie when David tells MUTHUR to head to Origae-6. Maybe the real Origae-6 is Planet 4, and the real Planet 4 or Engineer homeworld is Origae-6. It would make sense that they would have been able to scan and find a habitable planet, but not be able to detect if there is or was life there already. This is probably not even close to right but I wanted to type it out just in case.
I hope they are not just going to use this as a Easter Egg and no more and that it indeed will link with the next movie.
Indeed its interesting with all these Special Orders and Transmissions. I am puzzled to why the video has Origae-6 mentioned?
A oversight?
Is David trying to persuade the Company that Paradise is Origae-6 which clearly the Covenant is far from Origae-6 and so the Company would know Planet 4 is not the location of Origae-6
So is David hiding where he was on Planet 4? Is he trying to show these Experiments and Life, as what he discovered on Origae-6.... which in itself must mean this Message is sent after David arrives on Origae-6
There are a lot of things to consider, because we know he is off to Origae-6 and it will take 7.5 years, does David want the company to intercept him before he gets to Origae-6?
Why does David not create and experiment on the Covenant and then take the Ship to the Company...
Nope it all appears David is trying to get the company to arrive at Origae-6, but is David merely going to Turn up at Origae-6 with Tons of Eggs on the Ship?
I will assume David has a Plan to Proceed as Planned and Pretend to be Walter, and help start the set of a Colony before David then sends such messages, or sends them allowing enough time for when the company can possibly arrive.. that David would have a Human Colony set up..
And then he proceeds to unleash his creations.
