Christopher Kirkland No?? I’d say the same thing??? Because both sides have their pros and cons, and it’s just not worth it to bring political opinion into an Aliens video??? That has??? Nothing to do??? With?? Politics???
Braulio Hernandez Well you're both right. We are surrounded by ocean. No way in or out. Alien hives could be found so deep within the Simpson Desert or the other 6 huge deserts we have that they would never ever be found. Small population. No way of escaping. Unarmed. They can thrive where nothing else will. Now imagine a Big Red Kangaroo or Eastern Grey Kangaroo mixed with Xenomorph DNA. We would not ever stand a chance. A single egg would be a death sentence.
Jesse James that would still be an amazing mini series no lie a group of survivors hoping to be rescued from a island which was supposed to be overrun but still holding their own that would be good especially with all of the amazing wildlife out there just imagining all of the possible xeno combinations
Braulio Hernandez No dounts about it, that would be a great mini series, spanning one to three seasons. It'd be harsh enough here without the utilities functioning, but adding in an apex predator infestation would take survivors to the extreme! It would make The Walking Dead look like The Sound Of Music.
Another unsettling thing: xenomorphs can also multiply in underwater hives so oceans, seas, rivers fit their goals. Whales, dolphins, big fishes, big squids... all that can be infected...😮
I don't know why they would even risk having one on earth. Why not have the research done on a small space station that can be safely detonated if anything goes wrong? The way this story unfolds is nightmarish.
Typical warmonger human who is in charge of the pursue capital financial gain in power inspires the behavior that would bring a poison into your house dangerous though potentially profitable typical Behavior on Earth of the powerful ones we should be cautious because comparative Lee fracking oil neglect of the environment is the same as bringing a xenomorph on to Earth Destruction for humans inevitable

This Jewish surname of ORONA was originally from the Hebrew given name of AHARON, borne by the brother of Moses, who was the high priest of the Israelites. The traditional derivation is from the Hebrew 'har-on' meaning mountain of strength, but it is more probably of Egyptian origin.
NaZtRdAmUs if done like the first 2 Alien movies it'd be a future cult followed smash hit classic. BUT ONLY if done the same ways something modern Hollywood can't seem to get right
You just know they'd fuck it up. They'd make it like Knowing where 50% of the movie is just shots of things getting destroyed on a massive scale, and the other 50% is a family running away from it.
They really should make an alien movie about an infestation on earth. There’s so many cool opportunities they could do, animals, warfare, suffering. So much can ooze from that concept I can’t believe they haven’t thought of it yet.
This NEEDS to be a movie like an apocalyptic world with xenos everywhere it would be darker than the others with people of all ages dying by both xenos and humanity itself, maybe it would take place after resurrection since i think they were already heading back to earth only then to find it is chaos
hollywood would ruin it. Either by giving it a happy ending or let a director go full artist and completely ignore all the canon. "Don't you get it? #6 is like Jesus!"
I mean shit, we had World War Z for fuck's sake! The novel was really good, movie was eh.... disappointing to say the least. And with this we could finally have a real cool futuristic sci-fi war flick. We really only ever get one of those if they have some sort of weird gimmick, like that "Edge of Tomorrow," ("Live, Die, Repeat"), or somethin.
This is proper. Most channels don't realize when their voice is terrible, and it makes the clip unwatchable. But your comic cell/etc. artwork/and narration interlays are brilliant. Cheers!
I remember reading this passage in Earth Hive novel. Scary for a 10 year old. Gj. Really solid writing too for a pulp/comic novel. The text has an “accelerating”, punchy feeling to it. Mirroring the spread of the aliens and the associated chaos.
This goes beyond a "comic book dub." I like the narration style, the filters, effects, music, and live-action elements mixed in. The clip from the beginning was perfect for setting the stage of this episode. I appreciate the work and effort you've put in to making this series the closest thing we'll get to a "film."
They'd have to alter it to become canon but. I would happily pay to watch it. HBO would be the ideal ones to do it and they could do the slow and steady build, getting to know and love our main cast of characters and then seamlessly introduce the xenomorphs and showcase it's nature. Really flesh out its behaviors and its initial stealth and zeal as people try and hunt it and contain it only to realize it's too late and the xenomorphs transition from their shadowy hunting nature to their propagation and swarm mentality as humanity struggles to react and lured in with false senses of security at first. It would be absolutely amazing.
i see HBO and Disney plus and Fx and Hulu and 20 century Fox during Aliens Earth war because i really it being a Netflix TV series because Netflix is low budget 🌍❤️🥺
this was so good. before Alien 3 came out i often hoped for a part 3 that would fulfill Ripleys greatest fear, a Xenomorph earth invasion. alas such is life. great job as always.
"The captain goes down with his ship" is just a legend. No halfway competent navy would waste experienced leaders like that. It's more likely that naval customs evolved that the captain be the last man to leave a stricken vessel; he's responsible for every life on board his ship, so he must do the most he can to ensure their survival in a crisis.
It's a tradition. It's not exactly enforced as far as my brother told me but it is basically what a captain is expected to do if his vessel is sinking. Of course,that can be ignored as well.
I always read it as a simple statement of reality, in contrast to other areas of the military. High ranking army officers were rarely at risk in most historic conflicts. In the Navy though, everybody dies if it goes wrong. The posh officers are at the same risk as everyone else, and it can be read as "EVEN the captain goes down with the ship".
I remember parts of this, read the Aliens volume 3 that was black and white comic book by Verheiden, it was messed up, if aliens infest more than one city whole planet is like Doomed from the start.
Truth be told, think about it... a single alien will adapt into a queen without the presence of a queen. It may not be a strong queen but it would become an egg layer. A single egg and THAT would be enough. No civilian or civilian Law Officer could possibly take out one of these mothers before there were at least 3-7 stronger queens laying better, more fertile eggs in the basements of little old ladies or guys who don't have families and are never visited or a dark recess in a sewer/basement/you name it. One egg= end of humanity I'm astonished that the corporate assholes who wanted to make a weapon out of these things didn't think that far ahead. They were thinking in terms of ants and bees, earth-like insects. The idea that these things work on an empathic level that transcends/mutates[?] human thought patterns so the dreams of the most empathetic humans are so imprinted that the more ignorant/stupid of humans begin to worship what they don't understand and aliens borne from this reality adopt even the IQs of our greatest minds without even gestating any great minds. They just have to be NEAR them... or within miles of a human 'follower' who craves the incubation. God is not there but this thing IS there. It is real. It can lay an egg inside of you. How much more REAL do you want? These are our gods!! [oh fuck, I shit my pants.. I was starting to believe my own bullshit]
@@jackofshadows8538 It is an unlike scenario though. If only because of their life cycle. It does not take IQ above 100 to realize that the destruction of humankind is not in their interest. An evolutionarily advanced parasite does not kill its host. After all, humans are able to live without Xenos, the reverse is not entirely true. So Xenos posses another great disadvantage. How do you procure bodies if humans are able to read footprints and set up tracking and reporting systems? A man with a gun is far more dangerous than an alien. And can use animals who are able to detect aliens. The best bet is to spread facehuggers, as they are the hardest to detect. But still, there are motion detectors, thermo cameras, all sorts of things that are able to keep people relatively safe. I am not confident in their ability to destroy humanity. For example, sewers sound great on the paper. It is dark, no one goes there. But that is only because there is nothing interesting down there. If there was a chance of aliens living in sewers, we would flash them out the next day. Everybody would carry a gun, everybody would carry a self-destructive device. There would be walls, seismic detectors, houses on poles. Night horrors terrorizing fringes of society? Yes, but that is about it. I do not see it happening.
i remember reading these books when I was ten or eleven. I tried to find this series again about seven years ago but no luck. the fact that I found them here is awesome.

Honestly the earth war is what should've been Alien 3. With the teaser trailer giving some kind of tease that it would be on earth it just seemed like a natural escalation of things. Alien: 1 alien kills a space trucking crew, Aliens: 100s infest a colony and attack Colonial Marines. Alien 3 should've taken it a step further and realized Ripley's fears of Xenomorphs reaching earth thanks to Weyland Yutani. Honestly might've been a way to end the series with a bang. Earth is invaded and humans take back thier world in some way, shape or form and the series ends on that note.
@@alanlee1355 You seriously think the aliens actually stop at "mammals" ? They infect ANYTHING they can !...any species that's big enough to be "throat-raped" by the "face-hugger".
I’m a big fan of the aliens universe, having just discovered your channel, I take my hat off to you. A true goldmine. Thank you so much for your channel! Subscribed.
Damn queens are borderline geniuses that's crazy. I'd like to see aliens start to set up elaborate traps to draw out strike teams. They need to make a movie about this in the style they did aliens.
AvP gives an idea of just how this could get out of hand. A 'starting point', so to speak. It also has a cool way of explaining the 'ancient astronaut theory', albeit a frightening way. Both 1 and 2 of the AvP series give a 'boots on the ground' view of what a single skirmish might be like. But this? This really would make for a scary script - if done by the right director. Both Scott and Cameron have the skills needed. What would REALLY do it is if the two worked together..like Spielberg and Lucas. Now, you're talkin'! Both 1 and 2 of the original series are, in my opinion, the very best of them!
What is scary is Small hives out in the wilderness or unpopulated areas. The fear of monsters in the woods would come back into human consciousness as disappearing people report would come in daily and you knew you could be next.
wonderboy2402 damn dude i dont anything creepier than me in the woods how i am gonna build stone towers or leave smiley carvings for people to find . lol
Man, u r very good at making these videos. It's awesome seeing others love of this franchise that rival my own love of it. They should make audio books for these stories, and u would b a great narrator. Keep up the good work, brother. We r watching. 👍💯
Just Don't Mind ‘saga’ works; your thoughts on... Alien: The Earth War Chronicles Or Alien: The Earth Infestation I’m wide open on the title, so long as I get to watch it. If there is an upside to dementia, they get to watch the Alien movies for the first time again.
@@NothingHumanisAlientoMe No one has done a job on my mind, in a movie theater like Ridley Scott and James Cameron. In both cases, I said to the person I went with, "if you want to go, I'm okay with that" Both of these guys scared the you know what out of me on those two nights, and I will never know that experience again, for the first time, unless I forget. Hope you are doing well amidst the chaos: 2020: Year of Chaos
too late, dude. He was just dragged off. You can only hope the end is quick. I hear they don't rip off your arms and legs if you don't struggle.. the more you struggle? the more they rip off your legs to stop you getting away. Just accept your fate.
I have been watching your channel for years but every once in awhile I come back to this video. Something about just draws me in. It makes me wish that a TV show or a mini series was made about the Earth Wars. We have distopian shows abound but they all have hope or something to cling to. How often do we get one where we lose? Hubris and fanaticism lead to the destruction of our society forcing man to abandon its home? It's dark, it's gritty, its part of a franchise that has had a cult following for over 40 years. Good God Almighty it gives me chills just thinking about it. I only ever watched the movies but then I found this channel and it showed me a completely new dimension of this series. Thank you for doing what you do!
Great job. What a nightmare. But one that was entirely foreseeable. Just one escape and the whole thing could turn into a nightmare. And because of it they lost an entire planet. That takes a special kind of stupid. Sadly Ripley's spirit getting to say "I told you so" probably isn't very satisfying considering the situation.
To hell with kangaroo. Imagine Australian rabbits + xeno. This is the most terrifying mutation. Xenobunnies: not a "nature's tacos" anymore but super fast predators/infesters hoppity-hoppin' all around... 😂😂😂 just imagined alien bunny hopping on vertical walls and even upside down... in a surrealistic fuck-the-gravity manner, hopping down and then landing up on feet just like regular rabbit but upside down 🤣
Plus the new strategy: rabbits hoppin' in your garden at night - and then, facehugger attacks you from the fucking cabbage 👀 a bit later, 20-30 xenobunnies rip their way out from the chest ..
@ChloeWitcher [donkeyface mode on] fortunately, there's one significant strategic opportunity for fighting in Australia. Just make a seismic shock (by heavy bounce, stomp, explosion etc), and all the lifeforms within the respective radius are losing connection with ground and falling down to space Nadir. [donkeyface mode off/]
Mate.i love listening to this playlist.so much so iv just ordered a copy of the Aliens: The Essential Comics Volume 1,original publication.i really appreciate your work you put into all your videos.very informative and a great listen....CHEERS :)
Yeah this same thing happened if you read the novel ALIENS: Earth Hive, yeah it literally took the Xenos just over a year or two to completely over run Earth, and yeah, the teams that went in to eradicate hives and such that popped up were also in this novel, word for word, the Xenomorphs may not have shown intelligence in the beginning but after a while, they began to learn how to survive better, as it said on here, smaller hives in less noticeable areas like in forests and such, cause who's gonna report or notice missing wild life or farm animals and farmers that literally live away from minor or major urban areas, and yeah, Australia became a continent sized infestation and the orders to kill coming from commanders, then moving it further down the ranks to the point any grunt with a weapon can kill anyone they wanted to just by thinking the person trying to get out is infected is pretty dead on in the Earth Hive novel as well, if you haven't read the comic that this video was based on or the Novel, pick either one up, but go with the Novel ALIENS Earth Hive, explains this situation in greater detail and how the Xenomorph Infestation starts. If you want to know more about this from the novel, just ask me, I'd be more than willing to answer in great detail.
I would Love to see a Movie about this this could be epic and tragic A 3 hour epic that delves into the human psyche about losing our planet The Aliens/Predators series have been so underutilized as of late, I'm hoping these series can make a comeback what I would do if I could do a partial reboot for these franchises.
Watching this for the first time right now, and my first thought... the covid-19 pandemic doesn't seem so bad now compared to a global e.t. xeno infestation. And yet, reality still wins... at this time.
wonderboy2402 like a collection of stories from post-war survivors arranged chronologically? That would be pretty interesting. However, it seems far fewer humans survived the Xenomorphs so idk how feasibly varied the stories could be
wonderboy2402 I haven’t actually. I’m afraid I don’t know very much about the Alien universe lore, only having watched the full-length movies and a few dozen videos from AT. Therefore, I’m unsure how valid my previous point is about the few survivors from the Earth War being insufficient for presenting different accounts of the war. I did reread World War Z recently so I can see the many similarities the story shares with this xenomorph earth invasion. Most notable I think are the tac teams, which mirror the alpha teams from WWZ sent in to American cities to quell the early zombie infections with precision strikes.
"You don't see them fucking each other over for a goddamm percentage." - Ellen Ripley
I'm amazed the xenomorphs took over Australia considering the competition they would had against those horse sized spiders.
Don't forget the emus.
The downfall started when one of the Emus got infected - then all hope was lost. Before that there was at least some battles that ended in victories..
Kangaroo Xenomorphs.
Probably cos we got no guns. We'd be their easiest prey.
@@elduchie68 Aren't you already overrun with Aliens, from the middle east though lol
Nice touch with Ripley's rant at the beginning. Fits the story perfectly.
I wouldn't call it ranting, more like she's appropriately frightened by the threat and angry that no one was taking her seriously.+
The single and only scenario where feminism could potentially be relevant.
I kinda find it funny that Kane never said anything about the eggs he couldn't remember shit she should've said Dallas instead he picked him up
Gives me chills.
Yah, totally! I thought the same thing. :-D
Ellen Ripley warned them but noooooooo
Eleanor Rigby?
It wouldn’t have ever happened if they had just deciphered that code before going in into the ship in Alien.

Alien 3 should've taken it a step further and realized Ripley's fears of Xenomorphs reaching earth thanks to Weyland Yutani. Honestly might've been a way to end the series with a bang. Earth is invaded and humans take back thier world in some way, shape or form and the series ends on that note.
The reason Predators usually overcome Xenomorphs is obvious. With Xenomorph win we would have the real Doomsday, the End of Everything!
The end of mammals.
Life would carry on in the form of germs atleast
@@alanlee1355 You seriously think the aliens actually stop at "mammals" ? They infect ANYTHING they can !...any species that's big enough to be "throat-raped" by the "face-hugger".
I loved it the moment it gave me the notification! Thanks for the great work for all of us fans!
Great work very compelling as always. 👍🏻
Alexis Price Compelling great word choice x
This is a very high quality channel. Not over produced, not lacking... Very good voice and subtleties.
Wow. I only asked for this episode last week. Maybe it was written just for me because I'm so special....
I’m a big fan of the aliens universe, having just discovered your channel, I take my hat off to you. A true goldmine. Thank you so much for your channel! Subscribed.
Just awesome!!!!! Keep it up I love this Style of vid/ commentary
I live for this.
Damn queens are borderline geniuses that's crazy. I'd like to see aliens start to set up elaborate traps to draw out strike teams. They need to make a movie about this in the style they did aliens.
That's not borderline geniuses. That's well into super-genius territory.
The best part of the novel, thank you for this excellent video
Great video as always, love your channel. :)
You sir are excellent. I feel like I'm listening to you recount actual history.
This comic is so badass!
Thank you for compiling this series! *
AvP gives an idea of just how this could get out of hand. A 'starting point', so to speak. It also has a cool way of explaining the 'ancient astronaut theory', albeit a frightening way. Both 1 and 2 of the AvP series give a 'boots on the ground' view of what a single skirmish might be like. But this? This really would make for a scary script - if done by the right director. Both Scott and Cameron have the skills needed. What would REALLY do it is if the two worked together..like Spielberg and Lucas. Now, you're talkin'! Both 1 and 2 of the original series are, in my opinion, the very best of them!
This series is INCREDIBLE!
Fantastic work. Well done :)
Thank you Soo very much. Made my overnight job better. Love your work
Dude, I LOVE your story telling! I used to read Dark Horse Aliens comics but could never find all of the issues. you fill in the blanks! Thanks bud!
“ALL THIS, THIS BULLSHIT YOU THINK’S SO IMPORTANT, YOU CAN KISS ALL THAT GOODBYE!!!”
Had more fun watching this than either Prometheus movie. Great vid
I remember reading this book many years ago. Still have it somewhere. Good reminder to read it again.
awsome fella 🍻 i think we all agree this would be the scariest apocalypse scenario lol.
Brett Learmonth I think I would take my own life.
joel morales yeah think i would do the same load me up with explosives and I'll do a mad dash into a nest. lol
What is scary is Small hives out in the wilderness or unpopulated areas. The fear of monsters in the woods would come back into human consciousness as disappearing people report would come in daily and you knew you could be next.
wonderboy2402 damn dude i dont anything creepier than me in the woods how i am gonna build stone towers or leave smiley carvings for people to find . lol
Brett Learmonth oh Shi*!
I quite legitimately just woke up, as you uploaded this my alarm went off. Is it Christmas already?
Rory Donaldson Nope, the unofficial Aliens Christmas Day ™️ for you :)
Rory Donaldson that’s how it was for me when the alien covenant trailer came out
Rory Donaldson made
Man, u r very good at making these videos. It's awesome seeing others love of this franchise that rival my own love of it. They should make audio books for these stories, and u would b a great narrator. Keep up the good work, brother. We r watching. 👍💯
This is by far the BEST Alien Theory video by far! They are all great this narrator is one of a kind too you could listen to him all day.. A+++
I listened to this with my eyes closed and vividly imagined the whole scenario. It it truly frightening.
I said it before and I'll say it again-
Sir, *please* never stop making these
Dude. Start a go-fund me. YOU CAN MAKE THIS MOVIE HAPPEN. We WANT IT.
Best Channel ever.
Just Don't Mind
Agreed. This is what I imagined the 3rd movie would be like.
@@upstairs1307
They could just create a new branch off
*Alien : the Earth war saga*
Just Don't Mind
‘saga’ works; your thoughts on...
Alien: The Earth War Chronicles
Or
Alien: The Earth Infestation
I’m wide open on the title, so long as I get to watch it.
If there is an upside to dementia, they get to watch the Alien movies for the first time again.

@@NothingHumanisAlientoMe
No one has done a job on my mind, in a movie theater like Ridley Scott and James Cameron. In both cases, I said to the person I went with, "if you want to go, I'm okay with that" Both of these guys scared the you know what out of me on those two nights, and I will never know that experience again, for the first time, unless I forget. Hope you are doing well amidst the chaos: 2020: Year of Chaos
Thank You. Your uploads are always appreciated.
hey that burning city at 4:30 is Montreal, I live there and recognize the skyline :P
Michael Confalone yo get out quick!!!
too late, dude. He was just dragged off. You can only hope the end is quick. I hear they don't rip off your arms and legs if you don't struggle.. the more you struggle? the more they rip off your legs to stop you getting away. Just accept your fate.
Canadian cities stand in for so many cities in Film and TV.
Wtf are you a time traveler or something or is that a coincidence wtf
I have been watching your channel for years but every once in awhile I come back to this video. Something about just draws me in. It makes me wish that a TV show or a mini series was made about the Earth Wars. We have distopian shows abound but they all have hope or something to cling to. How often do we get one where we lose? Hubris and fanaticism lead to the destruction of our society forcing man to abandon its home? It's dark, it's gritty, its part of a franchise that has had a cult following for over 40 years. Good God Almighty it gives me chills just thinking about it. I only ever watched the movies but then I found this channel and it showed me a completely new dimension of this series. Thank you for doing what you do!
Great job.
What a nightmare. But one that was entirely foreseeable. Just one escape and the whole thing could turn into a nightmare. And because of it they lost an entire planet. That takes a special kind of stupid. Sadly Ripley's spirit getting to say "I told you so" probably isn't very satisfying considering the situation.
Only just discovered this channel and it makes my skin crawl which is great. Thanks.
Nice video. Keep up the good work !
MORE OF THESE VIDEOS PLEASE! THEY ARE SO GOOD! YOU ARE AMAZING!
They should do a movie like this
Jordan Brown u would think
They should not they’d butcher it all
Great work as always AT, looking forward to the next installment!
Thank you for great content! :)
WOW! What a thrilling episode! Just fantastic!
The Aliens infested Australia?
Now I really want to know what a kangaroo xeno would look like.
To hell with kangaroo. Imagine Australian rabbits + xeno. This is the most terrifying mutation. Xenobunnies: not a "nature's tacos" anymore but super fast predators/infesters hoppity-hoppin' all around...
😂😂😂 just imagined alien bunny hopping on vertical walls and even upside down... in a surrealistic fuck-the-gravity manner, hopping down and then landing up on feet just like regular rabbit but upside down 🤣
Plus the new strategy: rabbits hoppin' in your garden at night - and then, facehugger attacks you from the fucking cabbage 👀 a bit later, 20-30 xenobunnies rip their way out from the chest ..
@ChloeWitcher [donkeyface mode on] fortunately, there's one significant strategic opportunity for fighting in Australia. Just make a seismic shock (by heavy bounce, stomp, explosion etc), and all the lifeforms within the respective radius are losing connection with ground and falling down to space Nadir. [donkeyface mode off/]
Dude these are awesome and you have a perfect narrative voice for it as well ;)
Great Job from you!
Schönes Video, sehr beklemmend durch Ripleys Prolog und die Musik
I would love for this to be made into a movie...I feel like the movie could be both scary but have action.
Too big for a movie - 2 hours nowhere near enough. Would need to be a huge budget TV show
Mate.i love listening to this playlist.so much so iv just ordered a copy of the Aliens: The Essential Comics Volume 1,original publication.i really appreciate your work you put into all your videos.very informative and a great listen....CHEERS :)
"No one could imagine this happening so fast...."
Ripley says hi.
Background music is perfect!
yasssss yassss I never clicked so fasttttt~ and got groceries today too so I got fun snacks and fave entertainment~ Best Alien content teller evar~
Seems like poetic justice....one virus wipes another from the face of the earth. Lovely narration AT!
Imagine what it would be like if this was on film or at least a cartoon adaptation. Just imagine how kewl that would be.
Nicely done.
BRILLIANT! Next one please mate! Shits getting real now 😁
Beautifully done once again!!
Im actually surprised the Xenos survived Australia.
Rickinster surprised they survived Texas actually
good job as always, the definitive channel for all things xeno on YT
Good quality content!
Earth War series is your best run of vids yet.
U'll find wy thanks on most of em...
Thanks.
Yeah this same thing happened if you read the novel ALIENS: Earth Hive, yeah it literally took the Xenos just over a year or two to completely over run Earth, and yeah, the teams that went in to eradicate hives and such that popped up were also in this novel, word for word, the Xenomorphs may not have shown intelligence in the beginning but after a while, they began to learn how to survive better, as it said on here, smaller hives in less noticeable areas like in forests and such, cause who's gonna report or notice missing wild life or farm animals and farmers that literally live away from minor or major urban areas, and yeah, Australia became a continent sized infestation and the orders to kill coming from commanders, then moving it further down the ranks to the point any grunt with a weapon can kill anyone they wanted to just by thinking the person trying to get out is infected is pretty dead on in the Earth Hive novel as well, if you haven't read the comic that this video was based on or the Novel, pick either one up, but go with the Novel ALIENS Earth Hive, explains this situation in greater detail and how the Xenomorph Infestation starts.
If you want to know more about this from the novel, just ask me, I'd be more than willing to answer in great detail.

Thats humans for you!
The only smart person was that woman speaking in the beginning, everyone else was pretty much dumbfuck.
When the world ends, I wanna hear it from you. Love your voice!
I guess I missed the part of how this outbreaks started
Corona.
He hasn't replied, a corona hugger probably got him
@@gaijinbot8135 Italy has fallen
TechYK China forgot to lock up the Face huggers
They got an alien egg or a host to earth and a cult attack the place they held the host or the eggs and that’s how this infection started.
This was so well done!
Replace "Xenomorph" with "covid" and you have some spooky foreshadowing, there.
Do you still stand by this comment?
great video man - thanks for doing great work !
What a perfect script for a movie....
Kazimierz Fit that I buy to see that movie
Ripley was absolutely spot on 👍
I would Love to see a Movie about this this could be epic and tragic
A 3 hour epic that delves into the human psyche about losing our planet
The Aliens/Predators series have been so underutilized as of late, I'm hoping these series can make a comeback what I would do if I could do a partial reboot for these franchises.
Love this Channel it's so Entertaining and Educational, Appreciate it! 💯👍👍
Watching this for the first time right now, and my first thought... the covid-19 pandemic doesn't seem so bad now compared to a global e.t. xeno infestation. And yet, reality still wins... at this time.
Great channel buddy .. Am an big Alien fan have been since I was a kid. Really enjoying your videos. Cheers.

How cool would a world war z series but about the Aliens and the earth hive wars?
wonderboy2402 like a collection of stories from post-war survivors arranged chronologically? That would be pretty interesting. However, it seems far fewer humans survived the Xenomorphs so idk how feasibly varied the stories could be
cycoticmongoose sure, it’s been a few decades since I read the books but did you see the alien anthology short films?
wonderboy2402 I haven’t actually. I’m afraid I don’t know very much about the Alien universe lore, only having watched the full-length movies and a few dozen videos from AT. Therefore, I’m unsure how valid my previous point is about the few survivors from the Earth War being insufficient for presenting different accounts of the war.
I did reread World War Z recently so I can see the many similarities the story shares with this xenomorph earth invasion. Most notable I think are the tac teams, which mirror the alpha teams from WWZ sent in to American cities to quell the early zombie infections with precision strikes.
I completely discovered this by accident. I am now subscribed, twittered and facebooked in. :D
