It would be nice to see one, but all I care is that they don't contradict queens and render the prequels and sequels as not being canon with each other.

I don't think Scott would. Scott has mentioned on numerous occasions how he thought Cameron did a good job with Aliens and really respects the film. You can even see some of Cameron's attributes in Covenant. I think it would actually be kind of cool to see the alien Queen in Scott's next film. It would be one of those elements to tie the whole series together.

I'm not saying Ridley MUST put in the Queen in the film, I"m just saying it would be cool and help connect some plot points.

No. I prefer the body horror of egg-morphing instead.
I agree completely.

I would be happy to see Ridleys take on the queen.

To be honest, so would I, but would they break out the practical model, again, I wonder?

Well by putting the wasps into the equation they potentially set the queen mechanic up

I'm fine either way

The Queen was always my favorite Alien. Not for the prequels, no. But in a future non-RS-related sequel? HELL YEAH.

Unnecessary. So no.

We have seen so much of the queen and almost nothing about egg morphing in the movies, books and comics. Time to change this, as egg morphing is far more interesting and creepy!

I agree with keeping the Queen out of the prequel films. But retconning her entirely? No.

Actually, egg morphing was shown in the Alien: Defiance comic.

The Queen doesn't fit in with any of Scott's ideas of creation and transformation as much as eggmorphing does.  If anything has been done to death in the series it's the Queen. 

Cooked, with an apple in its mouth.

;D   We're those words, or something to that effect, uttered by Sir Riddles once...?  Who knows, maybe we'll get a Deacon Queen...

I didn't realize there was a pro-egg-morphing cult out there.  Interesting.

This Tweet had me a tad concerned he'd go against the queen concept:

The only time we've actually seen a adult queen in the main series is at the end of aliens and for a few moments in AR.  Hardly overdone.

The queen in avp was more like a dinosaur imo.

I don't think Scott does email or anything like this, especially twitter.

Oh goodness the Queen in AVP was utter piss. Nothing that sat on an eggsack depositing eggs for centuries would move like that! In Aliens she exhibited more of an insect/arachnid vibe than a tyrannasoaurs rex lmao.
