Alien: Romulus Catch-All Thread

Tristan's Aliens are too Stompy for me.

Regardless, his work is fantastic.

Regarding Stompy, even if the design doesn't match Gigers original work, its still be best Alien design since the 3rd movie and better than anything seen in any other video game. There is a lot to appreciate about stompy's design.

Spoiler

I believe it is the single best design in this franchise, but I don't wanna start a flame war again so I'll just shut the f**k up about it.

There was no flame war. Nothing is so serious.

I hope you're right bubby. The only person taking it seriously is probably me. I said this over and over again, but I just take things so seriously

On Romulus I can not wait to finally see an Alien being a threat after all this time and being the focus.

Even as far back as Resurrection they ended up taking a backseat to the Newborn by the end,

Spoiler

No, there's a new mutant big bad at the end.

I did not know this truthfully, but I anticipated something like it because of the title-

Spoiler

but I reckon in terms of visuals it will just be a new Alien design, considering all the history on it, an amalgamation of the successful others from the franchise history. (Particularly Alien/s/³)

If so I am not bothered, I still consider that, a proper regular Alien.

It's a fleshy hybrid with a more human face, according to leaks.

Blue is huffing copium right now but made a good point I'm taking heart from - relating to the fact that only "face", not "eyes" have been mentioned. We've seen that somewhere before...

It's like Fede is trying to combine all 4 films with the ultimate goal of doing AR justice lol.

Positive waves, crossing fingers my stupid story alarms are malfunctioning.

I have the bad habit of clicking on spoilers stuff and read the first words. I kinda wanna punch myself, but doing boxing for a decade I would probably regret that.

Thank you all for hiding your spoilers tho. Genuinely appreciate it.

Sometimes I get tempted to click lol, but I'm holding strong until the movie comes out

Amen to all of this. I think I have an idea on some of the broad strokes and set up, which I'm ok with as it's kind of impossible to avoid if you exist in fandom, but have managed to stay largely unspoiled on everything else.

I certainly won't be seeking out this Comic Com footage either if it's released on Alien Day. The backburster scene released on it in 2017 well and truly screwed Covenant's pooch / neomorph for me!
