I understand the main argument is 'David created the Xenomorph' (which is crap) but why does it go so overlooked about the black goo??
My opinions are as followed:
- 'David' didn't create the original Xenomorphs, he replicated or tried to modify a version to his opinion.
- Ridley Scott only backpedaled and said David did, because of his own narcissistic ego. He simply wants to 'own' the Xeno.
- And finally, the black goo is a straight up Venom symbiote ripoff. It takes characteristics of the organism it latches onto. Look at the worms. Look at the Alien 3 quadruped. Look at the Pred-Alien. The traditional Xeno's come from humans, not David trying to make a science project ripoff in his cave. RS can take his ego for a hike.
I should clarify too, that I believe the facehuggers are evolutions to deliver the black goo in their insertion eggs. (The mural shows facehuggers before David replicated one)
- Ironic is, aren't androids called 'replicants' btw?
Also, David's cave has a Xeno drawing. If he never saw a human contact an egg, how the heck would he know what it would look like?? (Without seeing Engineer data first obviously.)
Another thing I go back to is the original movie. You can't tell me that it wasn't a queen or another Alien lifeform that bursts out of the space jockey and laid all those eggs in the derelict?!
Instead, I'm supposed to believe David HAND planted 20,000+ eggs himself because Ridley Scott said so? (All because his ego can't handle the fact that Cameron introduced a badass queen and clarified the lifecycle and he didn't)
