All sounds very promising. I just hope we're not sticking to the accelerated growth cycle and the chestbursters emerging five minutes after implantation.
With the cast not being overly large, I am also worried we may get only one or two xenomorph kills. I know the first film was like this, but back then it was all fresh. We know what to expect now.
But the descriptions do sound fantastic. And the comments about the practical effects are wonderful.
