A new perspective on the alien

Recently i have been thinking about the alien creature more then i usually do, and i had two ideas that i think are pretty interesting and should be thought about more. the first one is more about the symbolism of the alien, what it represents and how it can be anything, the second is about how the alien is still potentially clouded with mystery, and just needs a new take to be fresh. so the first one mainly involves the controversial topic of turning the alien into a simple bug in the second movie, and while yes we have talked about this many times i don't think anyone has put this perspective on it, the alien is simply a symbol of fear, and that fear can take any shape necessary depending on the movie you are making, there is no t[*] rue one and only ideology of the alien. for instance in the first movie the alien represents an "alien" something we cant understand, that's horrifying. it really only represents fear itself, then in the second movie the genera changes to military action, and the idea of not understanding is still scary, but not as scary in this situation. so they made the aliens more militaristic, and clearly organized, something that is much more of a threat to a military force. they also make the clear comparison to the ant to show how they are not only organized, but they have a perfectly structured society and reproductive system, truly making them the perfect threat. now in the third movie the alien returns to the pure symbol of evil, but also represents something like a demon, to punish people for there sins. alien 3 also shows how the alien is like an unstoppable force, that after all the effort in aliens it still comes back. that's just an idea for people to think about, because i know a lot of people don't like the insect aliens in aliens, but you need to realize they didn't ruin the alien, they made it better by showing the alien can be anything, and can be molded to fit any kind horror. so my second idea is that the alien could potentially have many new twists in its life cycle. we have already seen it have a single life cycle with a lone alien, we see how it adapted a queen in the presence of many hosts., and we have seen it take genetic traits from what it comes from, so whose to say we couldn't see it adapt specifically to a type of environment, for instance we always see the alien start off very pale and yellow in color, yet turn black and brown. for all we know those aren't even the aliens natural colors, may not have any, its skin may just adapt to its environment, along with the configuration of there nests. maybe a dumb idea, but a fresh one. there is still so little known about the alien, and people should start to take it into a more obscure direction, it shouldn't have one iconic form. maybe after years of development, there hostile militaristic "bug like" society forms into a more complicated more human like community in the lack of hosts or threats. speaking of the lack of hosts perhaps the alien could change its life cycle from asexual to sexual,getting rid of the queen and facehugger which could maybe only be used when first colonizing a planet for more efficient spreading. maybe they use the bodies of dead aliens to bio mechanize new ones instead of using hosts. there are so many new ideas and i am sad that after 3 no new ideas were presented. now i wasn't around when alien 3 came out, but if i was and saw it i feel that the genetic traits thing would have blown me away, what a great idea, but i grew up with that idea so to me its just alien law. so i want the alien series to go back to exploring the species and taking it into a new direction. this is probably what they were going for with the black goo in Prometheus, but that wasn't directly related to the alien (as far as we know) and we can only speculate how the gap fills, and i am looking for something that builds from the aliens, rather then a so far separate idea all together. i know that in one of the unused scripts for alien 3 the aliens were able to reproduce or fuse with machines, this idea would most likely have not worked in a movie, but its still a pretty cool idea and it could be done. so that's all, i just wanted to throw some ideas around, especially to the people who don't like the bug idea that it was a necessary symbolic choice for the movie, and to everyone that the alien shouldn't be bound to what we have seen already, and i think needs a new idea, so i hope to see people agree with me and maybe see some cool ideas. also those examples i made of possible ways to expand on the alien physiology came right off the top of my head while writing this so if they sound kind of dumb thats why lol
