I hate Fiefeld SO much.

[Scorpio]

It's not even an issue as it's not even in the film.

I have nothing against 'space zombie' Fifield.  It's just what the film needed in the second act.  Fifield is the main physical threat in the movie, if you think about it.  The Engineer is an existential threat, but he seemed less interested in the survivors than wiping out human civilisation.  The hammerpedes were not actively attacking people, either.  The Trilobite was contained for most of the movie.  So that leaves it up to Fifield as the main physical threat of the film.

I understand what Bobby Brown is saying if you look at it as a single layer of perspective regarding a man turning into a xenomorph, or space zombie, or whatever xeno label you want to call it. But to include the deleted Alien 79 cocoon scene and other examples in later films, it's essentially a man (or in some cases, a woman) turning into a xenomorph.... Granted it's the first stage of the xenomorph, but regardless, it's still the xenomorph. I don't hate Brett or Dallas because they, as men, were turning into a xenomorph.

I liked Fiefeld more than Milburn, personally.

I don't know if Brett was actually turning into an egg or was just food for the egg and developing facehugger (yep normal aliens can create eggs, no need for queen..). 

Dallas was cocooned like the colonists were cocooned in Aliens, EXCEPT the version of cocooning in ALIEN  is much more horrific, basically you are melded into the hive instead of just being trapped by it.

They toned down that whole idea for ALIENS for some reason.  Ripley freed Newt just by pulling some stuff of of her.  She couldn't free Dallas, he was already beyond saving.  He had physically transformed.

They were both odious bastards.

[SiL]

Dallas was turning into an egg, Newt wasn't. Dallas didn't let Ripley even try to take him down, so saying she couldn't is completely unfounded.

[Scorpio]

Dallas was not turning into an egg.  He was cocooned, but not turning into an egg.

[SiL]

The filmmakers disagree with you.

The other points stand regardless - Ripley didn't try to remove him (as much as she wanted to), so your assertion she couldn't is unfounded.

[SM]

Dallas was not turning into an egg.  He was cocooned, but not turning into an egg.

And I thought this thread couldn't get sillier...

This is the new Egg on the Sulaco thread.

[ChrisPachi]

The entrance would be 90 degrees around from the tunnel to the juggernaut.  They go in under the face at the top of the pyramid which faces north.

Correct. Thanks.

Paranoid was right.

Point out where the entrance/exit is then:

Sure:

Okay, I'll bite. The process of cocoon is a transitory state. What was the cocooned Dallas transitioning to, if not an egg?

(everyone, please no butterfly jokes. Joke away but at least
get past low hanging fruit jokes )

I miss that thread. Got loads of laughs out of reading it.

If Weyland industries ever needs a map expert, send them my way. I'll get to the bottom of their "hedge mazes" in no time!

I, on the other hand, think we should explore the myriad and manifold justifications for hating Fifield with the blazing white-hot fury of a trillion exploding suns.

But that's just me.

Hate leads to the dark side.

We should rather start a "I love Turk SO much" thread instead. Imagine everyone vehemently agreeing with one another for a change.

Much more positive.

[Highland]

It's like the Matrix, every time we reset a thread it starts with an Egg.
