Happy Alien Day!

I posted this over in the Stern Forum yesterday, completely forgetting that it'd probably get more attention and love over here.

-------------------------------------

Alien: Covenant opens on May 19, and in anticipation of that, April 26 was proclaimed "Alien Day," by who, I don't know - I imagine the movie studio.

Anyway, 20th Century Fox released a new trailer. Man, David the android goes NUTS and I think he killed Shaw (or she may have died in the Engingeer's chryo sleep chamber).

Really looking forward to this movie. The alien franchise can be a lot of fun if done correctly

Hmmm I didn't see David going nuts in this trailer and I don't know if Shaw is dead. I bet she isn't and has a pivotal role in the over all arc of the story. Looks like we will find out soon.

By nuts, I mean releasing all of those canisters of black goo over the Engineers city, wiping them out...

I really don't think Shaw made it to the Engineers' home planet; Noomi Rapace didn't shoot a lot of footage. Some guys on YT are speculating that she was morphed into some kind of "Alien Queen," but I don't know...like you said, we'll soon see...

@SalsMasterShake does the trailer you first posted cut off? I didn't see David pour the goo on the engineers but in the second video you posted it shows screenshots of the aftermath.
thanks for posting these.

I rewatched it, and you're right, the original clip I posted cut off right at the very end. The canisters got released, and dropped over the crowd of assembled Engineers (or whoever those assembled "people" were), killing them...

There are a TON of "speculation" vids on YT, as well as yet ANOTHER official trailer "MUTHUR."

Honestly, I think I'm just gonna wait for the movie to come out. I'll be there on May 19.

We may do a FF podcast on this movie. Let me and @Fillmore know if you are interested in joining in on that one.

In one of the 8 billion trailers they have released for Covenant the fugly lead actress and the ship's captain argue over making a detour to an unidentified planet where they received a distress signal from so its possible that Shaw and/or David sent it and they are the reason all of the people in this movie are going to die.

Following a distress signal in space is the SciFi equivalent of going down a dark alleyway in a horror movie.
