As we all know, the alien is a perfect organic life, and the biochemical person in "Alien 1" has clearly explained, "The alien's structure and attack ability are very strong, the strong survive, worship its purity, not be Conscience taints, including remorse or moral delusions." Having wisdom without emotional and moral restraints, not being controlled by emotions, surviving for the sole reason of survival, absorbing the genes of all organic beings wherever they go, and maintaining absolute self, these are the factors Let Xenomorph become something like undefeated.
But "Alien 4", as the final part of the series of movies, gave birth to an ultimate alien baby with human shape and human emotions from the body of the alien queen. It doesn't matter whether the human shape is the most powerful, just having emotions is fatal. weakness. The humanoid was born to kill the ugly-looking mother, but he loved his grandmother who looked like and genetically similar to himself (prove that the humanoid also has a love for beauty), like a child. Stop begging for hugs and touches, that's why they are killed at birth.
Just assume that if you don’t have emotional needs, you will have super attack ability at birth, and you can kill all these people, including the heroine, or find a place to hide and grow up to become the ultimate boss (anyway, growing up It won't take a few minutes), coupled with the intelligence, judgment and stronger attack power, it is simply invincible in the universe.
Is having emotions degenerate? My answer - yes!
What is emotion, "Psychology Dictionary" thinks: "Emotion is the attitude and experience of people to whether objective things meet their needs". As the only human-shaped alien, on the real alien's side, both appearance and emotion are unsatisfactory. On the other side, although the replicant Ripley has alien genes, she is still human, and she is full of fear and distrust. Therefore, he cannot get emotional satisfaction, and even if he grows up, he is the loneliest existence in the universe. What's more, emotions are also uncontrollable. It's hard to control one's own emotions, not to mention the desire to get it from others. The originally pure and perfect existence has been added to the factor of emotion, and it has become no longer pure, so in my opinion, it is actually degraded. .
In the end I would like to say, is human beings considered perfect simply because they themselves are the masters of the earth? The thought revealed at the end of the film actually made me quite uncomfortable. In fact, human beings have always been eager to get rid of the shackles of emotion, so there are all kinds of letting go and detachment of religion, and various kinds of modern psychology. Self-emotional guide, we humans also hope to get rid of the entanglement of emotions and become an absolute powerhouse. So facing the pure alien with this weakness, it is really uncomfortable.
However, as an absolute diehard fan of the Alien series, I am delighted that the upcoming "Contract" will return to two completely similar but similar life forms, the biochemical man and the alien, as pure spokespersons.
