A PARADISE LOST (what could have been)

MemberDeaconMay-28-2021 5:51 AMWith Alien Covenant now being 4 Years Old with the Script being worked on between the Summer 2015 and Autumn 2015, while AC may NOT have gone down too well it would be INTERESTING to see how much had Evolved. We had Ridley Scott announce the Sequel in August and said it was to be called ALIEN:PARADISE LOST. With a Draft by John Logan made in August (previous Drafts by Dante Harper) Its seems some Changes had been made between then and Logans Drafts that became Alien Covenant.
We did have Ridley Scott mention in Early 2015 that the Next Movie would be Paradise Lost and would loosely Connect to John Milton's works.
The Purpose of this Topic is to look at Previous Concepts about WHAT could have been, before we got to Alien Covenant and to see IF there was anything Really that Different.
The Sequel had began work with Jack Paglen and then Micheal Green and a lot of their Work was in 2014, we then had Dante Harper work on some Drafts in 2015, before the Summer of 2015 we had John Logan take over and Finish his Drafts in November 2015 to what became our Prometheus Sequel
Not a LOT of Information is out there about those apart from some of Logans work, but we have seen some Concepts that seem to Indicate THREE different Takes on the Story.

I will Start with these from Khang Le in 2014
These seem to be OFFICIAL but i dont think anyone has had any Interview with Khang Le but he is a Professional Concept Artist and has worked on Various Movies. If we assume these are INDEED works for a ALIEN MOVIE then with the Date of 2014 this would imply this is PRIOR to the Dante Harper Drafts.
What we see from these Concepts is that INDEED we see David has Unleashed Hell on the Engineers, and some of these Infected Engineers appear to Mutate into something a bit like the Neomorph.
We then see that some Human Explorers have arrived but they get USED by David to conduct Experiments to Genetically Grow like Egg Sacks that Contain Hybrid Parasites. We then have Various Concepts of what are called Xenomorphs but they do-not look like our Xenomorph, but what these seem to be is Various Ideas/Concepts about WHAT KIND of MONSTER that David would go on to Create.
Not a LOT can be Gauged by these, we see that the Engineers World is more Futuristic and Bio-Mechanical and it does seem that David would Unleash the Pathogen on the Engineers that KILLS some but also MUTATES some into Horrors.
We then see that David has used some Incoming Humans to Conduct Experiments to CREATE his Very Own..... MONSTER.
