Spoilers: his facial acting was phenomenal. Made me genuinely question if they used CGI to simulate android behavior. Most android characters in film are played very human-like to the point where you often forget they’re meant to be a synthetic. But David Jonsson kept the performance cranked up to a hundred the whole time. The little twitches, the movement of the eyebrows, the mouth articulation!!

First time seeing that Alien's cocoon:

[the-irreverend]

I absolutely love the direction they decided to go with the black goo from Prometheus and how it ties into the themes of the film and the franchise.

Rook and Weyland wanted to use the black goo to make humanity better at colonization by ridding humanity of its weaknesses and limitations. But as a result, it creates a human without any humanity.

You even see that same theme in the chip that Andy used to "upgrade" himself with. He wanted to use it to better help the people he cared about, and yet in doing so he lost the care he had for them and tragically ended up becoming more like the cold machine that Weyland-Yutani wanted him to be.

Both the chip and the black goo are perfect metaphors for how people try to obtain, use, or embrace certain things to make themselves "more perfect" or gain more status and power in the system or society they're a part of. And yet by doing so, they lose the things that make us human and become more like mindless machines that think of nothing but serving a system that doesn't care about anything or anyone except those who benefit from it the most.
