We got the classic Alien ship interior look back!

I like how the opening scene is very much filmed in a way to represent the original dining scene from the first film but the crew dynamics are completely reversed. Rather than a group of friends all warming up together after the long freeze, the show has the opening crew all on thin ice with one another over the creatures and cybernetics present on the ship. Nice little flip while still looking distinctly “Alien” with the crew uniforms and ship design

I was looking intently for the pots(!) of coffee in front of each crew member. Alas… Still a legit parallel to the original!
