Damn  :laugh:

Her fate and story will be made clear.

All I really want to know is: Was the ending satisfying? Once the credits hit, did it leave you feeling like a lot was missing (much like Prometheus for a lot of us), or were you satisfied, overall?

Covenant does a much better job at tying loose ends. Then again, it does leave alot of room for speculation. I'm sure questions raised in Covenant will be answered in the coming sequels.

I'll give you guys this.

Don't you guys find it strange that there's a Facehugger egg in Alien Covenant?
Pretty strange huh? We all know who lays those eggs. Or, do we?  ;) 8)

Well, maybe for you. Frankenstein wanted a bride... David obviously liked Shaw and wanted to perfect someone he "love". Classical story.Its afterall Giger's idea.

It's hard to top Alien/Aliens.
Alien : Covenant fits in much better than Prometheus.

7.5/10.

Might turn out a bit higher if I go see it again.

Does it tie up any loose ends from Prometheus, apart from David and Shaw?

Sorry, can't go into specifics.
But ... yes. It does.

Again, there's alot of stuff in the movie that was present in the trailer. When I watched the movie I thought :
"... damn! Can't believe I didn't connect those dots before. I mean, it was right *there*"

Can't answer that one.
We we're requested to leave the cinema as soon as the credits started  :'(

A few journalists we're allowed to stay.

Well, then I hope it explains some things about the black goo and the engineers.

It does.

Although I'm pretty certain alot of you will figure out who the true Engineer is soon enough.

Take a look at my previous post. The one concerning the Facehugger Egg.
I've scrolled through alot of pages  but haven't seen anyone speculate about it.

So, here goes.
If the Alien Queen is absent ... who lays the eggs?
In Alien, why wasn't there a Queen when Kane got infected by the Facehugger?

Who made the eggs?

... just, think about it.
The answer is, really, right there.

No, that has been speculated as well already.
