Ripley has had her ending. This will be a flash of what could have been whilst she falls into the furnace at the end of Alien 3.
Really, her arc over the 4 films was perfect:
Birth-Motherhood-Death-Resurrection
I wouldn't say Christ figure, but almost mythological.

Da fuk is the aliens motivation? Isn't that like, totally freaking clear? Ok maybe not but they sure as heck need people to make baby aliens... so the motivation in the aliens/human relationship is pretty damn clear.
Apparently they arent mindless bugs.
If, you know, they are smart enough to cut power sources, they are probably smart enough to do other things.

Her quote about having to delay so Ridley can film his second Prometheus moving and then stating they would've wrapped up shooting by now which is a shame.
Perhaps I'm reading too much into this but sounds like a subtle dig. Makes me more convinced there is a definite schizm in the Alien camp between Ridley and Blomkamp/Weaver or rather a bit of bitterness/powerplaying going on.
That said lets not let that detract from these encouraging comments. My only concern was her last bit where she stated `she really hopes they make it'. Doesn't sound like it's set in absolute stone they are making this film (mind you at the recent Comic Con reunion she said they are definitely making it).

Scott's film is shooting now and comes out in August 2017, but that doesn't mean Blomkamp's Aliens follow-up will start right away. "Now that we're waiting for that, I have a couple of Avatars to do and Neill has The Gone World," Weaver says. "So we'll have to see what happens when we get back, when those projects are over."

Yeah, it just sounds like she's teasing that the aliens will be monstrous, as they always are.

That's an interesting way of seeing it. I like this idea and I agree, this is a flash before her eyes.
