How might the mini facehugger be used?

Ati I remember that discussion. It would be gruesome to see her as a birthing machine depicted as HR Giger imagined. I doubt we will see that unfortunately. It may also conflict with RS' vision vs JC's.

@Ati

Indeed we have to try and logically figure out a base starting point for those Eggs and why Dr Shaw was his greatest Specimen, all we see from Dr Shaw's Corpse is she has had her Chest Cavity removed with some Organs missing... Its likely that she was Face Hugged and David then removed something from her.

The Question would be was this Organism what leads to those Eggs? If so why did David have to get rid of this Organism as its not alive when the Covenant arrives, maybe its one of the Specimens in his Work Shop?

Then also it could be that David needed Dr Shaws Reproductive Organs?

I think a good way to look at this would be to completely Scrap Alien Covenant... imagine it never happened..

Look at being David, with Dr Shaw and the Black Goo and how David maybe never got to see the final results of the experiment he did on Holloway.

We had the Trilobite a kind of Face Hugger, which would have been the result of one of 3 ways.

1) Holloways infected Xeno-Virus Sperm, Fertilizes Shaws Egg Cell

2) Holloway merely passed on tiny nano-Xeno Virus worms that was transmitted to Dr Shaw and one of these infected her Egg Cell.

3) As Per 2)  but instead of infecting a Egg Cell, the Nano Worm just grew inside her Womb.

I always felt looking at the clues that option 2) was the most likely case.

So if you was David you could repeat the Process, by simply infecting Dr Shaws Egg Cells with the Black Goo.

I assume that its Dr Shaws Egg Cells that provided the Foundation of Davids Experiments and Once he had grown a Specimen he then introduced it to its Mother... and thus Dr Shaw gestated a earlier version of Davids Creation.

all depends on if the book is a legitimate way of answering questions not answered in the movie or not. if the novelisation is regarded as complete canon or not. if RS would come out and say 'yes, the novel explains where the eggs came from. david arrived and found an egg' then we could take the novel as a 'fill in the gaps' novel. but its not clear how much of the book is indeed fact especially as some things in the book don't line up 100% with the movie

plus not everyone who has seen the movie will have read the book so theyr still left with unanswered questions. for me, the movie must answer the questions and they need to stop using other mediums to fill in blanks just so those involved can reference it to answer questions they cant actually answer themselves. just more and more things that can harm peoples opinions of AC.

ali81 the alien universe is shrouded in mystery and it will remain this way. The ambiguity  of RS left the door open for every possible interpretation. And for endless passionate debates around the movies.

I feel like these movies are made for the fans primarily rather than for the general audience and easy money.
