20th Century Studios has released a new Alien: Romulus clip – Kay’s Escape. This video is connected to the previous clip of Kay begging her other crew members to open the door.
This one sees Isabela Merced’s Kay hiding under grating as the Xenomorph is directly above. As Kay crawls out, she sees the Xenomorph drag two bodies into a vent.

Good points. It seems like Fede is confident enough in his understanding of the 'laws' of the Alien universe that he knows what he can do to push it forward without invalidating what's been firmly established (not the same as assumed). I'm sure some will not be ok with anything new he brings to the universe but at least he has a respect for the IP and it appears would not be one to do introduce a concept if it didn't make sense.
The more unknowns, the better imo. Our logic and laws of the universe should be challenged. Good writers and directors are in the position they are in to be working on a franchise like Alien because they can merge what is fantastical with what is practicable seemlessly and it comes across as making sense on screen.
Sounds like you are one of those "I hate the movie and know its going to be rubbish when I haven't seen it and have no context".
The egg morphing also enhances the idea of these things being the ultimate perfect organism. You can wipe them out until the very last one... and that still wouldn't be enough with the egg morphing concept. One Alien able to self-propagate without being a queen is a terrifying idea.
I also wouldn't say Lovecraft is magical. It's, as you said, fear of the unknown. Unknowable beings we can't truly understand fits right in with Alien, and it's why I'm excited for Romulus to potentially throw a wrench into what we know about the Alien life cycle. Once we can truly understand them, they're just space bugs, which isn't as interesting as them being Alien and foreign to us, constantly keeping the audience guessing. I do just like those new aspects to make sense and feel right. It's a difficult balance to achieve,
Also on event Horizon, I would say that is a pretty good movie. Probably only good movie made by Paul Anderson
Alien Romulus seems like it's heading in both directions. With the black goo and shit, Wonder how this movie would go?
if you do like lovecraftian and magic, there are other space movies that has those themes. such as Event Horizon. I like that movie.
Bugs are actually very alien compared to most animals. strong and nasty. Plenty of mystery there.
You don't have to dip out of any debate! What you have to say and contribute is just as important as what anyone else has to say on these forums!
Actually, I think I'm just gonna dip out of the debate because I feel like a dick just for saying that
If the pathogen strain can be taken from an Alien to create more Aliens, surely the creatures can use their strains to propagate. Via Egg-morphing, no less
Aliens have always neen bug-like from the very beginning. They were meant to living creatures that could be killed. The acid blood plot was the filmcrew's way of the dealing with the trope "why don't you just shoot him?" its not a magical creature. Its sci-fi and should at least try and adhere to some rules.
The pathogen isn't plausible, its one of the reasons why some fans dislike the prequels, other than David being the "creator". Its nothing but a magic macguffin.
That to me felt more alien
Matter fact, that's why I like the black goo, It is a weird substance and we don't know where it came from. that like LOVECRAFT theme.
A less magic life-cycle, the alien is or was still a living organism. Its why it had acid blood. Because the intent was that if you shot it, it could die just like any other animal.
I doubt it only because the station is crawling with facehuggers so it would be unnecessary. Probably just using the bio matter in the hive.

Hope thats not one of the best scenes though. Hate it when they do this. If it was dragging them, imagine some blood dripping down on her below... The small things
I think that scene is going to show more
Have to say, I do love this part. The way they fold. One thing which is good, is the insight in to the overall strength of the Xeno. I thought it was a reach when it picked up the Predator in AVP, but i guess this shows consistency to yank those dead bodies up like that
Spoiler
Well, we haven't actually seen it dragging bodies as it lands on the grid. So speculation until Friday.
Also to mention Xenos do very different things when it's singular as opposed to many.. when they are one they become killing machines when they are many they are collectors of a hive ... For more xenos lol.. and also the Kay clip ... It dragging bodies away makes a lot of sense based on "Aliens" no bodies were
there, human or Xeno... And there was evident scenes of combat... Acid erosian in the floors meaning some xenos died.. also I am sure not every human survived a xeno attack .... All of Hadleys hope was clean... So I actually love this clip of the xeno dragging bodies away .. makes sense
"...how fall this franchise has fallen..."
That is not grammatically correct sir. I'm sorry, that's not hate or trolling, that's just a fact that needs to be stated.
Sorry, I wasn't saying you were one of the fans that believe that, I was just bouncing off and adding to what you said in response to that hhh troll person
You can speak for NO fan except yourself, so stop trying.
I actually enjoy the movies that came after aliens, I was talking about what the general public thinks of the rest of the franchise.
I'm also really excited for romulus and I agree with your opinions.
I do not envy the people that believe the last great thing to happen to this franchise is Aliens. Not one single bit. God, could you imagine?
Alien as an IP is so well-rounded with stellar comics, written media, video games, and four other really cool films, yet there are those who consistently rag on what they perceive to be shortcomings. And for what? To spout trite opinions at others who are actually enjoying themselves?
They never manage to engage with fellow fans and have a back and forth about what they actually like about Alien. They want to stay in their self-built, negative algorithm bubbles and feed that negativity because it gives them attention. They don't, and can't, contribute anything else.
I can't wait for Romulus. I personally have a feeling we've struck gold with this inter-quel. I've managed to stay out of spoiler tags and last thing I've watched was the second trailer. Excited is an understatement
Biggest pile of claptrap on a thread that's already had more than enough of it.
Wow! You sound really pretentious, Mr. "not a troll". How about just letting people watch what they want and then if the movie is bad, you can say whatever you want about how they ruined the franchise, even though the last movie that was universally liked was aliens in 1986.
You're just encouraging Fox to pump out cheap, badly made sequels that further devalue the series, which is already the subject of a lot of scorn. It really hurts me to see how fall this franchise has fallen, and this movie will not help. The Alien Fandom needs to stop supporting every product that comes along just because it has an Alien trademark stamped on it.
Ohhh..
Ohhhhhhhh..
OOOOHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!
I can think of a few movies that might put that to the test. Ever seen 2000 Mules?
