Thomas S. McDonald esquireIt's not. I have no problem with the idea (although I don't subscribe to it myself -- personal preference, nothing more). I'm just trying to show up Keith's hypocrisy. :-)
In fact the idea of humans using the Aliens as bioweapons is deeply ingrained into the series, why would it be so far fetched that the space jockeys might see the same utility?
More over, what possible reason would anyone have to transport such an obviously hazardous cargo? Its not like the Aliens ever did anything other than kill, and wait to kill some more.The ship only had eggs. Perhaps that's all they ever found, the rest of the adult population having died off after consuming whatever other life was on the planet. Perhaps they were taking them to a zoo. Perhaps it was a bizarre form of execution. Or worship. I could think of many more reasons far more acceptable than these few I came up with in the space of about 5 seconds. Use your imagination!
Plots tend to have plot devices. It's one of those things.Now *that* I'd pay to see! :-)
Some good, some involve pumpkin head somehow wandering on to the set of an Alien movie.
