So, what if a Facehugger attached themselves to someone mentally handicapped? Would that affect the Xenomorph that bursts out? Since they're supposed to take characteristics from their host, would there be a handicapped Xenomorph? Or is it more physical characteristics?

I'm stoked for Covenant, but I haven't yet seen Prometheus. From this thread, it seems that I should go into that with the mindset that I'm not getting an origin story, but one more of a setup to an origin. Is that more correct?

Prometheus was pretty loving sweet. Anyone who didn't like it is silly as hell.

That was one of my favorite parts of the movie. It was such a, "...What if he's right?" moment that I took a little bit to really think about it.

Xenomrph, what kinds of alien species exist in the Alien universe? On a side note, I almost spelled your name as Xenomurph, and had a sudden vision of a drunken Irish Xenomorph.

Isn't there some sort of predator () for the Xenomorph on their home planet? Or something to keep them in check?

SUNKOS posted:If they ever insist on showing the origins of the black goo I hope it's revealed as coming from an utterly bizarre and freaky-looking alien planet that's infested with weird plant life that looks just like that, but it would probably take way too large of a budget to create. I hope it's something they found in the equivalent of a backwoods Big Lots (but in space), and the creators of it actually use it for mustard or something.

How would a Xenomorph lay an egg anyway? Do they just spit them out? Or do Xenos squat like a pooping dog?

Can I break the conversation away from Covenant for a second? I was wondering about something earlier today, so my question goes to Xenomrph. Since the technology in the Alien universe is pretty far ahead of ours and eventually reaches cloning and stuff, what happens if a Xeno plants a chestburster into a genetically modified creature, like a mixture of two animals?

Watching Covenant again, I really do like the movie, but I feel like I like it in spite of its flaws. There's some part of me that just can't get over the decision to go to a mystery planet, the crew not taking basic environmental precautions, the whole backburster blood slip Looney Tunes thing, Oram having an IQ in the low double digits, and the ending sequence with the Xenomorph on board the ship. David should have had more screen time. This should have really been a David movie, where we can see some of his experimentation, to get glimpses and bits and pieces of how he reached the point he has. I don't mind that he did a lot of that off-screen, but dammit, David rules and we need more of him.

I think people, when thinking about Aliens, remember the bravado and badass attitude of the Marines more than anything else. They forget how the Marines get their asses kicked, how they're just a hair away from death at any point, and that they know it.

Has there been a comic or book where they tried wiping out the Xenos with a man-made plague or disease? Has there ever been a moment where they've been shown to become ill? I can see that going horribly wrong. Instead of killing them, it makes them terrible mutants. Or something. Are there many instances of mutated/genetically modified Xenos?
