Its gonna be David Inside the first space jockey from Alien

[Inverse Effect]

I know the first argument against this, that the suit was fossilized. Yes, because there's a good chance he found the suit and decided to wear it for piloting the ship, maybe the ship had structural integrity or maybe he wore it in hopes to contain whatever had ingested inside of him.

Second theory, covenant left us with David and a whole bunch of people in cryro tubes, and undeveloped fetus baby's,
Maybe thats where he got all the subjects to make all this eggs on the crashed ship? As seen in alien?

The reason the alien developed a bio mechanical look is because of hybridization or the original host was David all along? from the get go, procreation and creation was something he was kinds obsessed with.

We never actually saw inside of the suit in alien, so it could have been anyone inside it. Then there was the acid burn hole in the crashed ship. So whatever busted out clearly burned a hole to escape for unknown purposes.

I do think the mystery behind the crashed ship in Alien is fantastic and it leaves a lot to the imagination, but prometheous and covenant kinda already ruined the mythos behind it

So an Alien gestated in a robot that has no DNA while he was in a suit that he doesn't need to fly the ship.

And that ruined the mythos?

I genuinely wouldn't put it past Ridley thinking this is some sort of genius idea that no-one would ever expect, and the way to introduce the biomechanical into the Alien design. Think I'm quitting if that actually happens.

[BigDaddyJohn]

Then it's gonna be shit.

Even as someone who likes Alien Covenant more than I ought to, please no, thank you.

[Nightmare Asylum]

Ridley's gonna riddle. I say, if he gets to make another one, just let him do what he wants. Someone will be along to retcon it afterwards, anyways.

[BlueMarsalis79]

If he goes ahead with another I think he might benefit from someone fighting him over stuff like this honestly.

[razeak]

Hard pass.

Would have to ignore the SJ in Alien being well over 10ft tall for that to be the case. Either way, it's a big NO from me.

Biomechanical hybrid evocative of the gods' spacesuit created when David's mechanical components bind with black goo, baby!

The only issue being, it always requires an organic component to affect, that "good news everyone" David does not have.

No, you're not

Don't think this is something that gonna stop grandpa Ridley

When you put it that way it sounds absurd.

Spoiler

That doesn't mean it won't happen though.

It's happened before.

"Actually, I do."

[Kradan]

What happened before ? Hicks quitting ?
