1:02 And that’s why the Predators are the most likely ones to root for, because they at least have a code of honor and have some respect for all living things. Whereas the Xenomorphs have what’s basically a natural instinct to hate everything that lives. Also I would like to mention that I’ve always imagined that Xenomorph goddess was the same species as Sil from the movie Species, since she and the Xenomorph were both originally designed by H.R Giger.
Don't confuse the Yautja behaviour to mean that they value all life. They have a very strict caste system based upon a survival of the fittest ideology and the only reason they spare the weak and defensless is because it would mean they themselves are weak if they have to resort to violence. In their eyes, violence is reserved for anything that poses a threat to you personally,so to attack something many consider harmless means you must be weaker than it.
@@KryyssTV Humans are definitely much weaker than yautja though, so they'd never hunt us if that were the case. Look how an unblooded just tossed around a human Arnies size like he was a toy. And despite Dutch winning in the end, that's still only 1 kill to the Predators dozens.... very clearly showing that humans are weaker.
@@SA80TAGE Actually when you read the books you see that humans are considered as prey equal to, if not more dangerous than, Xenomorphs. Strength comes in many forms. On a hunt, they are only permitted to bring tools that are considered appropriate to the threat posed by the prey. While humans are physically weaker they consider us very cunning and resourceful which is why their culture permits the use of more advanced equipment like the plasma caster which is typically not permitted for Xenomorphs unless there is the poential to be vastly outnumbered. This fact is reinforced by the fact that hunting Xenomorphs is often one of the first experiences for young Yautja who are accompanied by an elder. But hunting humans is reserved for older, more seasoned members of a tribe. That is why Yautja will sometimes honour a human with a trophey if they kill a hunter as that was no small feat.
@@SA80TAGE Yuatja’s have been on Earth since Dino times. When Humans came around we did manage to hurt some, so at that point we became worthy. Over time we developed weapons that can do harm to Youngbloods (Arrows, Guns, Cannons, Bombs, Tanks, Nukes), those going through a rite of passage. It is because we can pose a threat that we get hunted, but only if we are armed. Unarmed, we are ignored.

THIS IS WHY YOU'RE MY FAVORITE COMIC CHANNEL! My father died in 2020 right after his 69th birthday, he loved Alien. Since his death, I've felt really compelled to everything he was super into, and this is one of them. Thank you CE for making me feel closer to my late father❤
My dad loves the Alien and Predator films & part of the mythos course not like I do. We watch the great ones yearly it's our thing from age...it was '92 so 9 or 10 I've been watching, collecting and reading ALIEN & PRED comics & books. Stopped for awhile but now I'm reading the books more and extra lore stuff.
Excellent work dude! Really appreciate how much you do for stuff like this. It's nice to see other properties like aliens. I'm a big fan of the alien mythos but have never dove into the comics, it has been on my list tho. I think you got me hooked on these now! Keep em coming we love it!
Can you make a video about KERPOW!? A new comic series from Scout Comics, that tells the story of a boy, his father is a Hinchman who get lucky and successfully kill a superhero with his young sidekick who is a clear homage of Batman and Robin the story pick up after 10 years, we find that the father became the new kingpin of the city, the sun nearly killed by assassinating attempt meant for his father and wake up in the hospital to find out that he is hunted by the young sidekick and after that he get on a mission to destroy his father empire KERPOW! is amazing! A video on it would be awesome. Let's shake things up and see some content that isn't just Marvel or DC. Please make a video about it, and everyone, can you help me convene him by giving my comment likes
Chestbuster gestation periods actually vary based upon the needs of the hive. That was established during the Earthwar series whereby it was noted that when a hive reached a certain size anyone implanted would experience a slower gestation which would actually accelerate if they moved away from the hive into areas with little to no Xenomorph presence. It was unknown if this was due to pheramones the xenomorphs secrete influencing the larvae or if it was a feature of the telepathic hivemind the queens use to contol their brood.
It depends on the environment, and also what weapons he has. I believe Rambo is good enough to hide from the Queen but I'm not sure what weapons he could use to bring her down.
Depends on the version/story. This is like "could spider man beat" if you use OG middle aged super genius hyper strong Peter the list is small. Rambo has been shown to essentially be a halo 4th gen Spartan. Not gonna punch his fingers into Steele but he's gonna win against anything on earth bare handed damn near. But... The queens have been shown to do some crazy shit. Like scionic powers. Queens have literally been able to find humans via their thoughts. While other times They are just big angry Beasts. Mix everything from both characters together and I'd wager the queen wins in a cage match or in the jungle. But Rambo would never be found if he chose to hide or run. Now if Rambo has prep time it's GG. He can sprint and fire full auto machine guns. That's already superhuman.
It would be damn cool to see a story focusing on the survival of a fresh queen as she flees and tries to start her hive while being hunted by Rambo and his crew. Portray humans as the villains. I love that shit.
That's what david was trying to create with elizabeth shaw. A high queen, remember he said he loved her. So something happened to her and he had an idea to use the goo to save her. She probably disagreed and wanted to die. He didn't listen and proceeded but failed. He maybe got mad after her lost and blamed the engineers. So he destroyed most of them. Then tried to look for a way to bring back shaw using their tech but also failed. So just used the remaining survivors and shaw to create new life.
Rip cat, then again that’s also an inconsistency I think, cats I feel are too small to be face hugged reliably by facehuggers but then again that’s just me
"...usually anywhere between 8 to 12, sometimes 24 hours, depending on the circumstances..." Alien: Romulus set a new record for impregnation to chestburster with what felt like five minutes.
You really have to ask yourself this... Do you really want to sit around 40 minutes every movie to see the same thing you've already seen? I'd prefer time spent on other things.
Whoa 😳. This story is absolutely awesome. It’s pure fire 🔥. I grew up on Aliens and Predator movies. Please continue covering it. I would appreciate it if you continued covering this story.
I didn’t care for this plot thread/reveal. The idea that a humanoidish lady is the actual “queen” of all the xenomorphs is not interesting to me. The Xenomorph’s mysterious origins are what makes them interesting, but if you’re going to explore it, don’t make their origin a lady (and then also drop it and not talk about it again)
Honestly i like the idea the engineers essentially made them or potentially took dna from the original xeno’s and it got out of hand. The idea of a “goddess” behind it is cringe. Not everything needs a knull behind it…poor writing and imagination
"you got time" - not according to the new movie, impregnated, birthed, and fully grown within 15 actual minutes in the movie (there's a destruction timer).... and that's WITH an extra cocoon stage after initial chest bursting. Fastest xeno life cycle so far.
I love the Alien franchise so much that my problem is i can't ever get enough of it, i always just want more and more and when the movies end or the story ends its upsetting LoL
Man i love the concept of aliens being this ancient reset button placed out there. Resting and then activated when species develop so far that they try to reach the stars, tying into prometheus. Much better better than space jesus and human creators ugh.. Appart from that, great vid rob, hope u follow up on this soon!
Hey Rob, not sure if you’ll see this but one of my favorite characters in the Marvel universe is Blackheart yet I don’t ever see too much stuff on him. It would be awesome to see you do a cover on him at some point. Keep doing great work!
Yes, please cover the next stories of Alien, finger's crossed I hope they made justice to the franchise, the old comics were good (the majority of them), but Fox really messed up the Prometheous saga
L'univers Alien/Prometheus/Predator est très riche. Mais effroyablement mal exploité. Une série, avec un héros unique qui parcourait cet univers, serait intéressant.
The positive side is that while you're carrying the xenomorph, drones are way less lethal. They'll still try to capture you sure. But they won't risk harming the young.

Heck, it could even be like what coyotes do, where they can have larger litters if they Don't hear as many response howls.
I didn't think you liked covering anything other than DC and Marvel. Let's see how this Xenomorph cat ravishes Earth
Xenomorphs is marvel lol
Rob I love it when you cover comics like Star Wars and aliens vs predator, so much lore is left out of the cinema and tv shows!
Who wins in this fight: Rambo with prep vs. Xenomorph Queen
The writer gonna want my son Rambo too win 😂
It depends on the environment, and also what weapons he has. I believe Rambo is good enough to hide from the Queen but I'm not sure what weapons he could use to bring her down.
