Quote from: The Old One on Aug 20, 2018, 11:00:02 AMIt was the intention during shooting that it was an unclear amount of surviving Facehuggers that hitched a ride and waited until the humans were at their most vulnerable.(The Facehuggers obviously ran for the hills when the airlock opened, under a grating- inside a vent and voilà.When the Facehuggers return, the crew's in cryosleep.)The egg was a studio insert, from the mentality that "these things have to come from an egg" creating a needless point of contention.One that we're still discussing, if you don't care about the way the film should have been edited together being the real explanation;Then in order to take it at face value, with it being in a place it couldn't possibly be. I only have this to say;"I had a terrible dream in cryosleep." -Ellen Ripley+ Dream-like opening, Dream-like ending.

QuoteAnd another take on this whole sequence is it could be from one or multiple characters perspectives and as these characters are all sleeping, the events can take on a disjointed and dreamlike quality.
