I haven't seen the movie but I have read nearly every spoiler and seen all the pics. So my question is this... Does the black goo simply create a killer species based loosely on what it touches? If the goo mutated the worms to space Cobras or caused one to birth a space cobra that impregnates the human and causes another evil snake creature to burst out THEN... that mirrors exactly what happened to Shaw except her derived facehugger got itself into an Engineer. The new xeno is smooth and fleshy like humans but bursts out massive due to gestating in the engineer. So lets say the goo infected sharks. A crazy ass face hugger would be born that would impregnate shark shaped monsters into whatever it found to host with. So the resulting burster would be some psycho evil looking fish no matter if it used a human or fish as a host. This is opposed to a classic ALIEN facehugger latching onto a shark and producing classic looking Xeno's with shark like features. Like how the ALIEN 3 Xeno still looked like the Classic style but it was just shaped a little different. It wasn't a drastically different creature. I think this must be the case. If it is and the Engineers really are not bio-mechanical but instead larger version of us then I would imagine the results of Humans and Engineers being exposed to black goo would result in nearly identical Xeno species. The classic style Xeno from ALIEN looks like the SJ suit. So my only reasoning would be that they didn't originate from the SJ(meaning a SJ didn't spawn the face hugger creature) but something else that has a exo skeleton look. Or perhaps the Chest burster somehow was able to adapt elements of the SJ's suit since it is bio-mechanical. Thoughts?!

The problem with the black goo is it has magical properties that allow the writers to get away with anything. It makes worms grow, turns people into zombies and repairs infertile wombs. It's a substance straight out of Harry Potter. If it found its way into a shark who knows. The only thing I know is I wouldn't be going swimming

Alien was a pure (horror) idea based on some lovely (sleazy) paintings by the man, HR. Aliens SHAT all over that beauty, turned it into a rollercoaster ride and BROKE the franchise off into xeno-alikes-R-us. Going back to the original Alien, I'm sure the sequel was SUPPOSED TO BE alien (in Ripley) lands on Earth. That would have rawked (to borrow a phrase). :)

I think the black stuff..makes whatever organism it comes into touch with adapt to it's environment..it changes the worms to Cobras, that's why it altered shaws featus into a squid because of being in a bag of amniotic fluid...maybe it would have changed again if she had of birthed it...

i think there is more than 1 kind of goo, with different properties. This is really a like/dislike movie. i wonder, but till now, is it british that mostly dislike the movie, or am i wrong?

My theory... the black goo contains some kind of virus that alters DNA and they seem to have more than one form as ShinobiX9X mentions. Perhaps a distilled version which doesn't have live virus, but just concentrated substance that it uses to break down DNA, certainly the first scene it seems to simply disintegrate rather than be changed. The goo seems to be controlled by the room its in (possibly by that green crystal thing that we see briefly). I assume it keeps them dormant during transport, until the Space Jockeys want to unleash the weapon, then they let it bubble into the gravelly floor, where the worms are waking up and turning into nasty things that no sensible biologist would want to touch, - until Milburn comes in to play coochy-coo with it (despite having seen piles of dead giant bodies piled up in the corridor). I think we can expect more clues about the goo and the green crystal in parts 2 and 3 if they get made. (I hope they do, but with different writers. The script was very poorly done in my opinion.)
