Alien Plot-holes

[J-Syxx]

The Queen didn't exist in 1979, and the source of the eggs in Alien was well documented, onscreen [albeit deleted] and off [by Scott, O'Bannon, etc], as was the Derelict ship. With Alien 3 you have an established life-cycle, and an established series of events, that are contradicted. If people complain about the Queen getting on board the Sulaco, then they're missing Cameron's comments about it, as he has addressed it directly. If he hadn't, then it would have been negligence on his part. But he did. With Alien 3, there is not a single explanation for it, no-one involved with the production has sat down to address the issue, and the reason is because: there is no explanation. When Walter Hill says that Alien 3's script was 'a complete f*****g mess,' then I'm inclined to believe him, considering it was his pen which wrote it.

This is balonga. Cameron changed the Alien life cycle. Originally, it was going to be "egg morphing." Everyone knew that including Cameron. It was what Scott was going to do untill he cut out that scene due to pacing and other reasons. It was in the script, noveliazation, and everything. However, since it wasn't on screen, Cameron felt he could change it. Same exact thing. Fincher tweaked the life cycle to allow for an emergency egg birth. Since the queen isn't revealed until a good time later after it boarded the Sulaco, he felt he could change. Exact same shit, and it isn't a plot hole. As much as I love Cameron, he isn't the only one who is allowed to add onto Alien canon. And no one talks aobut this probably becuase there hasn't been a ton of conversation on Alien 3 in general for different reasons.
