Quote from: HuDaFuK on Jan 13, 2015, 01:54:06 PMQuote from: Russ on Jan 13, 2015, 01:49:19 PMOne thing I'd never thought of was the double-dipping Facehugger. Even if we accept the deus ex of it (or its egg) being on the Sulaco, how does it impregnate Ripley AND the cow (or dog). I'm sure there's a fifty page thread on that in here somewhere...Originally it was supposed to be a "Super Facehugger" with a different design, capable of impregnating one host with a Queen and another with a regular Alien to act as her protector. That much kinda makes some logical sense. But the idea was dropped and they went with a regular Facehugger, presumably just hoping no one would notice.

Quote from: MrSpaceJockey on Jan 14, 2015, 02:27:39 AMPretty ironic that the Queen facehugger is only seen around the dead cow, and the regular facehugger is seen attacking the cryotubes (and presumably on Ripley's face in the opening sequence scan).

Quote from: Corporal Hicks on Jan 14, 2015, 08:23:42 AMThe shot of the original should have been removed for the assembly cut imho. Or at least changed, with a digital super-hugger instead.
Quote from: Kelgaard on Jan 14, 2015, 02:15:02 AMI still hope to see the queen hugger in a future film one day because what Master said.
Quote from: Kelgaard on Jan 14, 2015, 08:48:04 AMWe need a George Lucas special edition that keeps both the dog and ox, resulting in two aliens, with enough eggs and facehuggers to make it work.
