I still have a chuckle every so often remembering the Walking Egg theory.

Is that the one with the facehugger hauling the egg around on its back like a hermit crab?

No, it's the one where an egg comically slimes about the place under it's own power, like some hellish snail.

Quote from: SiL on Jun 22, 2022, 02:07:46 AMAn egg on the Sulaco is fine.

An egg upside down in a random corridor is not.
Indeed. They included far too much scenery around the egg which showed it in some location where the Queen just didn't go. They should have just shown it in/on the dropship and they would have saved hundreds of fan hours writing and debating this subject.

There still would have been plenty of debate over why Ripley wouldn't check the one place an egg might be, to be fair.

True but at least it would have shifted the discussion away from 'what were the writers thinking of, having an egg so far away there's no possible scenario for it being there'.

I mean, without third prequel it's quite possible Covenant is still floating around somewhere during the events of Aliens/Alien 3. Maybe it's like a ghost ship that is known about only from legends

Tbh, I love it like that. We never saw an egg before or after being placed that way

How can it be David if his body lies in LV-426?  :o

Almost as if it oozed into that position and continued to grow there.

Are you advocating that it fell out of the queen and grew under the deck?

Actually it's more funny to imagine the queen lift her butt there and bend to lay that egg  :laugh:

I swear it looks like someone was digested and turned into an Egg.

Naw, she pinged it out and it pinballed around until it got caught up in the girders.
