I have a few posts tagged “storyboard”, but other than that all I can suggest is a Google search. Sorry I couldn’t be more help.
Hahaha, well it looks like you’re handling the disappointment in a mature fashion.
For the record, I don’t post all questions that come in, and I didn’t post your last one because I try to limit the amount of swearing on this tumblr.
But I will make an exception for the above.
Yes, in early Alien scripts our heroes don’t encounter a derelict ship with a pilot, but instead a silo where an ancient race used to conduct their reproductive rituals, in which the eggs, facehuggers, and chestbursters were a natural part.
I can see no reference to this in Prometheus. The proto-xeno at the end only came out of the engineer as a result of impregnation of the proto-facehugger that came from Shaw’s womb, clearly not a normal part of their reproductive cycle.
I doubt the filmmakers intended for it to be a queen, but fortunately they left that up to our own imaginations to decide.
So, sure, it’s a queen, if you like!
