Prometheus 2 aka Alien: Covenant (Official Thread)

One other question

Spoiler

I'm assuming the ship david is on now is going to colonize the planet in aliens?

Spoiler

That wouldn't make sense because an Engineer ship crashed on the planet with the Xenomorph eggs

Spoiler

so they pretty much fukked up the storyline

 

[SilverSamurai]

And maybe it was said before but

Spoiler

Don't expect any queen aliens in this new franchise. Ridley Scott hates the idea of a queen and likely won't be using it.

Spoiler

So Scott wants to retcon Aliens?

 

[BelieveBeOK]

Decent movie I thought



6.5/10 for me



But damn, every character bar the black dude were complete fukking idiots

Spoiler

Decide to change course and go to a planet you know virtually nothing about based on an intercepted signal brehs


Explore an unknown planet with no helmets or hazmat suits brehs



Split up every 10 minutes brehs



Bring dudes with symptoms of an unknown sicknesses back onto your ship brehs



Explore an abandoned alien ship and just start poking at and touching things brehs


Don't ask questions about all the bodies outside David's place brehs


Clean your wounds away from the rest of the group on an alien planet brehs



Follow David into the deepest darkets crevice of his cave, AFTER seeing all the fukked up shyt he was doing and touch alien eggs because he says "It's perfectly safe, trust me " brehs




Override the ship's advice and endager the lives of 2000 people to save 5 crew members brehs








Have shower sex in a sci-fi/horror film brehs

I had a chance to see it today but I went with Gog 2.

I had to pass again as I am more concerned with the Engineers and Shaw heading out to go find out why they want to fade humans.

It would be nice if Ridely Scott went into this but even I think that plot would be too hard to develop.

Cant wait for this.... Prometheus was a great movie. Most ppl didn't like it because it was sort of an intro

I wasn't that into it because the plot required people doing stupid shyt to move it forward.

The Engineers hate humans because humans killed Jesus, who was also an Engineer.

Yeah.

Yeah.

shyt....I read that and almost went.... Dang...

Seriously. I don't see how Ridely Scott can even come up with something to actually continue Shaw's story...perhaps he left it that way to simply pump out another movie.

 

[duckbutta]

Had free tickets to see this...and if I had a time machine I would send myself back in time to tell pass me to rip those shyts up and go do ANYTHING else with your life instead...

Just bad all the way through...

There is such disregard for even the last Prometheus movie as far as history goes...

Hilariously poorly made...they didn't even think enough to shoot fassbender scenes correctly...HE DOESNT EVEN HAVE THE SAME SHORT HAIRCUT...

This part almost made me walk out the theater when I realized nobody on the crew could tell he actually looked older and had a different haircut...

I'm done with this franchise...As far as I am concerned nothing after Aliens ever happened...

 

[2 Up 2 Down]

Loved it. Can't wait to read the novelization when it drops

Spoiler

Spoiler

From what I understand, yes. Sort of. He wants total control over everything and is supposedly considering only Alien and Prometheu as canon.

A Mother brought her two kids in my showing... SMH, but they were well behaved considering people were getting torn to bits...

 

[George's Dilemma]

I like how they added in a photo of the crew near the end as if the character development was on point and we're supposed to care about these people.

Thats what made Alien and Aliens to a lesser extent great films. The characters were actually folks you didn't think were inept. I feel like if I was on the Nostromos as a rookie, I'd be good considering the crew. Plus the actors and actresses made that film work. Sigourney Weaver, excellent up and coming actress at the time. Yaphet Kotto, established actor. Ian Holm, established stage actor and Tony winner. John Hurt, legendary actor, even knighted. Etc.. They made you believe. Can't say the same with the cast of Covenant.
