I bet you the writers got that covered.
Skills unrelated to baby making to keep the colony alive ....If they have artificial wombs, then sure. But that tech is not that far along at this point in the series or should not be.
Otherwise, not sure why they would send a gay couple... you would want more women. So maybe bisexual ladies would work better than gay dudes?
Oh they are definitely including it just for the diversity nod but it isn't going to entirely kill the movie I'm sure. Just don't think it's that jarring for me.Maybe. But you are telling me they could not find a woman pilot or at least a couple of pilots? I get it. There are gay people out there and they have every right to do whatever they want. But if I am sending people to seed/start a colony in a venture that likely costs billions, if not more money, and will take decades --- I would plan for lots of redundancy. Unless those dudes are highly pragmatic and willing to inseminate a few ladies, I do not understand why they would be in the crew.
The swarm like feel does not make it look like any human relative. at 2:12 in the prologue you can see them pouring out of an entrance to the central arena thing, that shit looks like your worst zerg nightmare from above.
In the context of the film series yeah, they've shown that the tech for artificial wombs should be around. I dunno if it's in Covenant but the autodoc in Prometheus showed capabilities way beyond artificial gestation. We've already got artificial wombs working on lambs today:If they have artificial wombs, then sure. But that tech is not that far along at this point in the series or should not be.
