So can the Xenomorph basically combine genetics with any animal life (in the actual canon)?

Not plants, fish seem kind of doubtful, but at least birds, reptiles, amphibians, and mammals?

If so then there's basically no end to the creativity they could use in these movies instead of just going with the human-xenos every time.

In Alien three a dog is impregnated by a facehugger and the alien is a little different. This concept would quickly be expanded upon in the different Alien themed comics and toy lines.

This is all the way back in the 1990s.

I only had the scorpion, but it did fall apart if you hit a button on the back.

I don't know if it was the same company but my dad got me the entire set of Predators with similar gadgets. Those mixed with all my GI Joes was pretty awesome as a little kid

I've been watching some different reviews about the film, and apparently there's the wreckage of the nostromo .

My question is how on Earth would that even be possible? At the end of the damn original movie it was vaporized.

As I recall in the film it's not exactly "the wreckage of the Nostromo", it's more like the shuttle they sent to find out what happened flies by a large piece of the hull with the name Nostromo on it.

As for xenomorph and genetics, yeah xenomorphs combine their natural DNA with about 10% of the host's DNA to adapt to its environment in the most suitable way. The Queens and Preatorians are the only creatures that don't mix and match DNA (Resurrection Queen excluded since she was an artificial clone made with Ripley's DNA), hence they look "more" alien (extra arms, different head shape, different feet, different size, translucent teeth instead of chrome teeth, etc..).

The dog/ox (depending on the cut) xenomorph in Alien 3 is called a Runner because it runs on four legs as opposed to the humanoid xenomorphs seen in all other films.

It just makes no sense. Either all of the Nostromo would have been vaporized in the explosion or the debris from it spread out over an incomprehensibly large area. The really dumb thing is the alien was blown out the escape shuttle, which they had zero idea of its location.

They basically found needle randomly tossed into the middle of the ocean.

Just saw this. Not bad at all. My sensitive snowflake anti-woke sensibilities weren't triggered at all. Fucking miracle

The glow in the dark one had the best face mask, thus was always the leader
He had the spear on his back I think. Just turned 40 and feel old as heck forgetting shit.

I saw this last night. I really had no interest in it at all prior to watching it, but my friend asked if I was down, so I agreed. We actually got in for free, so even better. That said, I liked the movie. I only ever saw the first and second Aliens movies back when I was younger. They were VHS copies. The chest bursting was a lot more graphic than I remember from the 80's, but then again, special effects and CGI have really increased tremendously since then.

It was a decent film. Lots of stupid feelings keep getting you killed, but I guess that's a human condition.

EDIT: An observation I had, when the Alien was stuck in that thing in the wall to molt it's skin and become larger, that looked 100% alien vagina. Then they fucked the alien vagina with the taser wand. Just saying.

I might have MS and I'm a bit of a retard now, but we were talking Alien movies, not your porn searches, ya fucking faggot.
I have MS as well. Was diagnosed just shy of 16 years ago. I've been "decent", but a few months ago I got bad. My walking is terrible. Legs don't always respond the way I want them to, and my balance is vanishing at a rapid pace.
Good luck.

The dude with the taser-stick, Bjorn, is unknowingly the father of the baby the other chick (his cousin) is pregnant with (confirmed by the director), while he's also in a relationship with the asian chick Navarro. The taser inserted into the alien vagina and zapping the "baby" inside is a metaphor for abortion, of Navarro's "baby". Presumably that's part of the reason why the pregnant chick doesn't want anyone else to know about her pregnany.
