Connecting everything in a franchise with such a realistic tone as Alien is just incorrect.

Kradan

Oh, I see . Honestly, I don't want prequels' story to have anything to do with first movie. Just let it bee its own thing .

The idea is trash, you're incorrect. It's exactly that sort of thing that means a Prequel story is usually insufferable nonsense.

LOL.

I wrote it for laughs (after all, we know that David will become the Space Jockey, anyway). I did not expect you to take it so seriously. You can exhale.

His AI gets loaded into a vibrator with sensors for all 5 senses, but without the sensation of  pleasure. He becomes a caricature of what he wanted, and literally gets that fact shoved in his face. Bonus points. An Arcturian buys him.

It's got a weird vibe to it (pardon the pun). But I like it.

I mean, aside from all the "hairy/sweaty @$$" he'd eventually find himself dealing with, and whatnot.

You may be surprised what people post in earnest then Drukathi. But we may never get an answer now, nevermind "the best combination of the poll options" as the OP says.

Immortan Jonesy

And all because of certain fat and insatiable entertainment company. I hope things change for the better in the future  :-\

Maybe david is Ash?

Ash was the Space Jockey the whole time.

Predator@Alien

I like the idea that David could have the privilege to transfer its consciousness in all facilities where there are xenomorph. Just like Ash in Out of the Shadows. It would be interesting to know that he never dies throughout the saga, and he sees everything that happens, a kind of Paradise for the robot ^^'

I like to think that no human being of the company knew or commanded the rerouting of the Nostromo & the replacement of the Science Officer but is the work of David, making the people present in Ripley's Hearing in Aliens to be plausibly in the dark and sceptical of her testimony & the build on lv426 of the AP & Hadleys Hope innocent enough too, rather than some shady faceless people

son_of_kane

Personally, I'd like the "mysteries" of the original films to remain that way. We don't know for certain why the Nostromo was rerouted, but it's fun to speculate. We don't know the story behind the space jockey and the derelict on LV-426, but it makes for interesting conversation. Another prequel film telling us IT WAS ALL DAVID wouldn't be my cup of tea. Don't get me wrong, I like the character and Fassbender was superb in the role. But I'd rather not have David's shadow loom over the original films. Does the character deserve a conclusion? Yes. But just don't tie it into the events in Alien.

If it weren't for the war in the series, I might see Raised by Wolves as a spiritual prequel to Alien, featuring the synthetic woman Mother, somehow related to MU-TH-UR 6000.



A silly idea. But it's Sunday 😶   

Edit: I actually live in a Sunday limbo  😶

Nightmare Asylum

If there isn't a PURGE screen in Raised by Wolves, we riot.

We here in the UK don't even get Raised By Wolves. Hell, we haven't even got Bill & Ted 3, yet. Should we riot?
