So I'm sitting here watching Aliens for, oh, the 100th time and though I'm sure these questions have been answered somewhere over the interwebs, I have two questions that I'd like some insight.
First, secred resin.
It looks like the bugs used this "resin" to change their envirnment inside of structures where most of it just seems to be mostly ornamental and would almost take an engineering degree for such complicated set dressing.
Why? And HOW? Where does this resin come from and how are they able to form and build it into such complicated designs?
The other issue I have...isn't the Queen Alien the real victim here? They are not intentionally trying to hurt the humans they art simply trying to survive.
But what does Ripley do? She could have simply come in, grabbed Newt and left. Did she really have to fry the baby aliens in front of the momma? It's as if Ripley was doing this for HER own benefit and self satisfaction. Am I looking at this wrong?
