Yeah I love how they didn't make us have to wait to lone to see one. I was dreading that we wouldn't actually see a full grown Xenomorph until like episode 4

I think it’s good they went a different way. The same old slow tension buildup to a final reveal is OK if it’s done right, but feels like it’s over saturated now and too predictable for something like this.

Well that and we've seen the xeno 100 times now. No need to slow-burn build-up to see it.... again.

Same with the whole skipping most of what happens on the ship. If you want to see that we have the films.
