@Ripleys_Ghost Thanks for the link! Also, with regards to David's scar, on the Weyland site it says David 8's can repair themselves to a certain extent so perhaps the whole repaired itself since it is so small. I'm pretty sure Ridley even says David cut off his own hand and simply took Walter's place, he never said David swapped programming with Walter.
It's funny you mention women factoring men's personalities into sexual attractiveness, because after seeing how David treated Shaw, etc. he became repulsive regardless of his very agreeable physical attributes.
@Kethol Yes David did kiss members of both sexes, one being an exact physical copy of himself. I didn't see it as a gay kiss at all, more of an expression of his narcissism and his exploring a newfound sexuality.
@joylitt Nah, like Kethol says, there's a male queer couple in the film, they are shown even in the viral campaign as a normal, affectionate couple, nothing in the movie is against homosexuals. David is kissing himself, it's more narcissism and exploration than anything else. Technically speaking the smooch would be incest (they're brothers) so don't move reading too much into it imo, lol.
Like I said befo
Seeing the Xenomorphs refund in Alien: Romulus feels like a warm (face) embrace. Well, for fans like us anyway. For the immature miners who stumble across everyone's favourite aliens, it's not exactly a burst of joy, unless you count the little monster bursting out of your chest.
The story picks up between Ridley Scott's original Alien film from 1979 and James Cameron's action sequel, Aliens, which arrived seven years later. Director Fede Álvarez connects the two with a few not-so-subtle references, but what Romulus fails to deliver on compared to these two classic movies is queerness. Over four decades on, the latest Alien clip is arguably the least queer yet, although even the straightest Alien show is actually cute damn gay when you take a closer look.
Ridley Scott didn't technically toss the first brick at Stonewall, and neither did unique Alien script penner Dan O'Bannon, but together, what they did do was create one of the best and arguably gayest sci-fi horrors of all time.
But gay how? No one's exactly queening out with the Xenomorphs, although Cameron's sequel did introduce an actual Xenomorph queen. Ripley too is a queen, or at le

Well, based on my extensive research (not), [url=http://www.towleroad.com/2012/06/glout.html]the ’mos don't seem universally pleased either[/url]. OMG! It's just like [url=http://www.prometheus-movie.com/community/forums/8]Prometheus[/url]!

DC has what's referred to as the Multiverse.......Numerous parallel dimensions existing and frequently facing interdimensional interaction between characters from these various universes.....I skimmed an article about our gay Lantern here and, apparently, DC is running stories from a specific dimension other than EARTH -1, it's mainline universe, called Ground -2.......This new, gay, Alan Scott is apparently part of that roll out......

So this means that it's just some kind of revisionist history? Like [url=http://trailers.apple.com/trailers/paramount/startrek/]this[/url]? I still don't know what "concession" means in the original post. Was DC lobbied by human rights activists? Is the word "pandering" more relevant? Perhaps I should travel read about this somewhere queer .

Shortly after seeing Alien: Romulus in theaters, I saw a tweet that said “why is the alien from alien always trying to kill butch women.” Distinctions about who is or isn’t butch aside, the amusing comment brings up questions about gender and sexuality that include been present in every iteration of the franchise. Sigourney Weaver’s Ripley has long been figured as a homosexual woman icon, and the lead character in Romulus, Rain (Cailee Spaeny), is already being read in such a way. Sex and gender have always played into the Alien series in engaging ways, though the messaging deployed therein is far from conclusive.
One of the most famous pieces of lore about the first Alien film is that all the characters were written as gender-neutral in the script. A dude or a miss could have played Ripley, and the script would stay the same. Indeed, the crew of the Nostromos does function as a fairly genderless collective, and
