They were clearly not the top in their profession. Weyland knew what he was doing when assembling the team.

Future painkillers are most likely more stronger plus adrenaline. She was still in pain when it passed.

You don't have to be the top of your profession to know the shyt we're talking about. All you have to be is not borderline retarded, which is obviously too much to ask from these characters.

there are plenty of dumb booksmart people.
of which weiland employed on purpose to use as guinea pigs and host for xeno's.

as no one would inquire or find weiland liable.
as that wigged't out scientist was thought of as some quack, anyway.
that was just in over his head.
as something went wrong on the expedition, from that scientist's negligence.
which usually included that misfit scientist consistent mishaps, socially/professionally. so weiland was not liable from a civil point of view and kept the spoils of the expedition. without legal recourse or action.
that is why ripley is sent out again and so heavily recruited to go to the outpost in aliens.

shyt ripley was recruited in alien as well.
as ripley was seen as weird for leaving behind hee daughter to go out kn expedition.
i guess you do not remember in aliens ril
pley coming out of stasis and her daughter was dead or eighty years old or some shyt.
not to mention, even the weiland worker traps her and newt in the lab with face suckers.
or did you forget one of the most tense scenes in aliens.
as face suckers scurry along the floor and try to nab newt and ripley as they sleep.

then awake to the danger in the soundproof plexiglass lab.

how anyone saw that scene and aliens.

then questions, what type of operation weiland was running.

even without reading the darkhorse comics is beyound me.

the movie made perfect sense in the continuity of aliens/weiland corp. if you seen at least alien, or aliens.....

let alone the other two high quality movies in the series.

women who have caesarians come home the same day, now.
as in any sci fi film,..if they have a medi-bay.
it has always been implied.
the person is healed anytime the procedure is complete after the medo-bay process has been completed.

i hate star trek, but in any star trek next gen episode.

when anyone was in and let out a medibay...
they were healed,.....

evem luke skywalker on the hoth system.

after suffering hypothermia in hoth weather cold and getting slapped't up by a hoth snow monster. was in tiptop shape,....after leabing the aquatic medichamber.

so i just do not unelderstand anyome nitpicking the wildest alien gastro extraction birth scene we could get.

shyt was a grrat upside/part of the movie!!!!

Exactly.

I'm not saying the movie didn't have flaws but we're sitting here complaining about the strength of pain killers in this movie. They got a self surgery pod, you think their pain meds aren't going to eliminate ALL pain? Hell, they could even "regenerate" the wound.

It's not necessarily full of holes. the movie is just extremely subtle at times. What doesn't make sense to you?

it all makes sense to me. but the movie does a piss-poor job of building a storyline, or explaining... anything. i understand it in spite of the film, not because of it.

2 hours in someone screams "this is a weapons facility! :mindblown:" and that's that. the flick is all :gladbron: visuals and :sadbron: story progression.

I actually like that the film doesn't force feed you everything. :manny:

So was this a prequel to Aliens vs. Pedators? It having Weyland and the Alien at the end?
The black semen or goo that birthed those monsters is actually black matter? the creator of creation?
So that snake that broke that mans arm actually was a tiny worm but mutated into that monstrous snake from that black matter?
So basically this is nothing but insect mutant monstrous aliens?
Movie was dope.

That room with a the Black Matter had paintings on the wall, kind of like hieroglyphs since they were in fact in a pyramid.
They had the image of an alien on the wall and door.
The alien was not created until that robot poured that black matter in that mans drink, had sex, she gave birth, the squid placed seeds in the Engineers body, the alien is born.
That room was nothing but a portrayed prophecy on the walls and door.

My breakdown and next sequel:
The Engineers = Yakub
Black Semen/Goo = Black Matter
Black Semen/Goo + Insects/The Engineers/Humans + Birth = Aliens
Humans = Experiment/Creation
Predators = Saviors/The Real Engineers/Gods/Warriors/Moors
Shaw = Ripley's Great Family Member/Tree

This took place some time before the events of "Alien". I don't even think Alien vs. Predators is even included in this continuum. I may be wrong about that last part though.

Weyland the company who brought them to that planet origins are from the Predator series.

The answers are out there brethren.. keep searching and the black goo shall be yours.:mindblown:



-My theory is that the black goo is actually Hersheys Chocolate Syrup. One of the collectors made another visit to earth round 1900 when the stuff was actually invented. They brought some back to their planet and everybody went nuts.. the hologram of the aliens running from something was actually the day they were giving out free samples of the chocolate syrup and cats couldn't wait to get their hands on some. it became an addictive drug that's why they aliens were falling over themselves for hit and dying right on top of each other.

and as the years flew buy the syrup began to age and change over the course of time. it grew organisms and snake monsters are the decendants of that batch of chocolate syrup which became goo. Plus they had a chocolaty smell to them. that's what drew the scientist to it. He was like, "this motherf*cker smells good, I wanna kiss".. and so forth. But that's my theory ya'll. :win:
