    Except she's not royalty, and if you're a girl in a Disney IP without some claim to royalty, you only get to be the love interest. Except for Mulan, who was only acknowledged by royalty.

    Then explain why Belle is counted among the princesses? Or Snow White?

    Belle married a prince (de Beest), making her a princess, and Snow White is the stepdaughter of the evil queen. She also marries a prince.

    Explain Dr. Frank N Furter.
    He's not a princess. He's a queen.

    Ripley 7 could be considered royalty. Yes, that's a picture of the original Ripley. Enh.

    What for convoluted reasoning? Well, Ripley 7 is a clone of the original Ripley, who has a mix of the DNA of the original and that of a Xeno Queen. So yes, royalty. :D

    20 years ago neither Disney or Fox were run by the same people as they are today. In fact both companies have had multiple changes in CEO and most other executive positions since then. I like a good conspiracy theory as much as anyone but this isn't a good theory, its just silly.

    As George Carlin said, you do not need a formal conspiracy when interests converge.

    I honestly didn't like how she looked in Resurrection. And honestly... 3 and Resurrection kinda sucked. Aliens was MUCH better.

    Didn't one of the creator commentary pieces say that part of why they changed the look was to make her look more alien? IIRC the choice of oily black pleather was because it looks like Xeno skin.

    Oh and apparently it's Ripley 9, 7 was one of the failed clones.

    I had no problem with the outfit. Her HAIR looked like a mess.

    And I thought it was 8?

    Oh.. yeah, it was 8.

    Anyways, the stringy looking hair was probably intentional too. They did a lot of stuff to make her look and act less human. Making it look like she never combs her hair was probably intentional.

    Your being as silly as flat-earthers.

    I don't believe in flat earth.

    Sorry if I don't lean to the idea of the world only being as it is be mere clowns and bunglers who are merely incompetent at best....I don't buy into that, I know that idea makes you comfortable, since "no one could be that evil in power". Gulf of Tonkin, which was declassifed and shown to be a lie, and one those in power did.

    I threw away my rose colored lenses away long ago, sir. To me, anyone in power, be it government or business....if their lips are moving, they are lying. With all the lies we were given over the years, I don't believe a thing they say.......NOTHING.

    If that upsets you, or makes you roll your eyes, I am not gonna lose sleep over that. ~curtsy~
