Egg on Sulaco

The CGI xenos has aged poorly. I remember it was mostly good when it came out though.

But what about the egg on Sulaco?!

If they had left the egg out, they could have had The Queen had two facehuggers attached to her like The Carrier Alien in AVP: Extinction (2003).

I think you mean AvP Extinction (2003)?

Just a bunch of scrambled eggs.

Alien³ does have that feeling of waking up from dreaming something you desperately wanted, but it is just a dream, the film itself tonally feels very real overall. Opening and closing moments set aside. Aliens does seemingly partake in a degree of wish fulfilment for Ripley.   

Alien 3 solidifies the trilogy as a tragedy. It ends things as they should.

Would you say it's nihilistic?

This is how I would rewrite the start of Alien 3. And I have thought about it but I'm too lazy to do it.

Exactly what I think.

The Alien takes everything from Ripley. She's isolated and has nothing left to give but her life. The series is one long nightmare that ends without a happy ending. Anything she accumulated along the way (Newt) counts for nothing and become painful memories. Horror isn't just in terms of gore and shock, it's about a situation that would depress and torment you.
