In the aftermath of the skirmish that left many of Hick's team slaughtered by Xenomorphs, it was clear that the alien homeworld posed a major threat to humanity. The creatures needed to be destroyed. For Hicks, there was only one way to be sure...

@eeyuup 6 лет назад

Just want to say I really like these videos. I could go ahead and read the comic, but there's something to these videos and narrations that give it an interesting feel. Like true accounts of a wartime events.

0:43 "you know what became of her" actually no, no we don't. Since this goes in what most think is a better direction than later movies. What did happen to her....

@theveteransergeant 5 лет назад

It's intentionally left vague in the comic book. She returns later in the series.

@kierankelly1629 3 года назад

it was never really explained from what I remember, as jtar says. As much as I loved these Graphic Novels at the time, and the direction as opposed to the subsequent movies, I do think - at over 30 years old - they are a little dated. IMO Alex White's recent Alien Novels are the best addition to the franchise, they aren't shoehorned into canon and feel much more modern.

@TheDaimon888 6 лет назад

I really appreciate your in-depth accounts of Earth War its one of my favorite Xenomorph comics even though this isn't canon, to me this comic series and William Gibson's Alien 3 script are far better than the actual Alien 3 we got in the end.

@0utc4st1985 6 лет назад

And better than the Prometheus junk we got too........

@theveteransergeant 5 лет назад

I really enjoy Alien 3. It's much deeper and more characterful than any of the previous films, and Elliot Goldenthal's score is amazing. But I also enjoy this and Gibson's drafts. It's fun to have three sort of "alternate timelines." Especially since every other movie has been mostly garbage.

@Kissamiess 6 лет назад

Nah, the big yellow elephant with boring old spacesuit isn't that great design either. If you don't like Scott's big bald albinos, you should check the Aliens: Apocalypse - The Destroying Angels. That respects Giger's biomechanoid design and is a good cosmic horror story as well.

@FunkMastaMegaFlex 6 лет назад

I agree with you. The elephant like creature design is unique and its telepathic. Why couldn't they have used something similar to this design instead of Pinhead from Hellraiser without the pins.

@lando8913 3 года назад

The space jockeys seem big enough that the xenomorphs wouldn't be as big of a deal for them. Especially with their tech. Can you imagine what one would look like if it came out of a jockey?? Huge and even weirder looking.

@bthsr7113 2 года назад

And that is an underutilized aspect of the bugs. They can take on physiology traits based on the host. Not just proportionately sized to hunt them in melee, but possibly capable of psionic attack at the drone stage.

That ship looked similar to the one from "Prometheus". I do think the xenomorphs were created by the engineers. This might explain why they left one planet because of the consequences of what the black ooze would do. I think what David did could be the same to what the engineers did long before the events of "Alien".

@baduizt 5 лет назад

The novelisations clarify that Homeworld (Earth Hive) isn't Ripley's Hiveworld (Female War). This has to be the case, or Hicks' nukes never worked?

@baduizt 5 лет назад

The two planets appear quite different. Different ecologies, hive structures, etc. Additionally, if the Government knows where the Homeworld is, and has been there, there's simply no need for Ripley to have seen its location in the message from the derelict. They must, logically, be different worlds. Hence, Homeworld and Hiveworld.

What or who is this sentient alien?? Is there another in-depth video on this “LONG NOSE” or is this the extent of it? From the comments, it seems like Long Nose was supposed to be the original version of the Space Jockey as opposed to the Bald Men in the films. Is this accurate?

@SSJFutureGohan62093 5 лет назад

syntaxed2 The overall destructive capabilities and after effects of a nuke (if multiple nukes were dropped, you’d have an extended, global nuclear winter), such as the massive amounts of radiation would more than likely do the trick. Realistically it would be decades before repopulation would be possible, and more than likely during that time, the Xenomorphs would probably die out, or be so reduced in numbers that it would be possible to clear them out.
