WTF did i just watch editionPrevious: >>214577014
Place your bets on who's getting eyeballed:>Dr. Cougar>Morrow>Wendy's brother>Some character we've never seen before
What a terrible episode. >>214580172Probably Dr. Cougar since Kavalier is mad at her.
>have cool idea of aliens on Earth>do nothing with it>have cool idea of immortal kid robots>do nothing with it>have cool idea of super corporations ruling Earth>do nothing with itWhat went wrong bros?
>>214580128Which is the worst practical effects? The alien in this episode or the Spinosaurus from JP3?
>>214580264hard mode: what went right bros?
>>214580128AI hollywood slop
>>214580264comics and shit about aliens on earth already exist. we were supposed to have colonial marines fighting off aliens as they conquer continent after continent and lose the planet.
>>214580245Do what Mr. Strawberry says.
>>214580128If humans wrote this show maybe we are better off using AI.
>>214580364it's all the more jarring because a lot of the sets are really well crafted and then you get this legolas jumping bridge stuff.
>cyborg bodies>everyone is uglywhy spend trillions and make yourself hideous
>>214580474the leftists who make this trash worship ugliness.
>>214580474It's because boy genius is so ugly, he created them in his image.
>>214580264everything went wrongi really wanted to like this and the first few episodes although flawed very enjoyable but i cant stand this retarded shitshow anymor
>>214580474>can afford to cybernetically enhance an entire body part>can't even get some cheap veneers
>>214580128>6 billions a piece>some dude turned their trackers off remotely>u cant turn the trackers on remotelylmao what the fuck is this dumb shit writting
>>214580128ive been waiting for a flashback to the elevator when she unalived the alium in ep1 (or 2?), i felt like there was something that happened there
>>214580543He did turn their trackers back on. It's how prodigy's security was set up to ambush Wendy and company at the boat and Morrow and the two retards.
>>214580543Dont forget the person who turned off the trackers had been fired and threatened with being killed if he didnt fuck off but then was allowed to still wander around unescorted and no access being revoked. There are still people defending show.
>>214580364I would pee myself if I saw that in the woods
>>214580128>she calls it like a trained hunting dog>she rubs its blood covered head like its a puppydog who just played in the mudPlease just let the xenomorph humiliation ritual end
>>214580128>eye monster will get implanted into the brotherwe are in for a good episode next week bros
this fucking bitch is vile and sinister. bitch just unleashed the killing machines on everyone she has ever know in the base, without remorse or consciencebitch is just another shitty temu t-800 now
>>214580536>can affordMorrow cant afford shit, grandma Yutani gave it to his crippled hobo kid ass because she knew in doing so hed become highly loyalAnd the cyber arm makes him more effective as her worker but beauty would be a waste since shes not really showing him off
>>214580629She's the perfect organism.
we need dick monsters that attach to women and impregnate other women, not stupid eyeballs
Are we ever going to see what the giant hanging plant can do?
>army stands there and does nothing while their colleagues get torn apart
>>214580722futafags OUT
>>214580767whats the deal with this level of incompetent? stupid writting?remember one miner girl who has never held a gun in her life, killed 50 xenos with an auto-aim gun
>>214580786imagine where the facehuggers impregnate futas through urethral penetration and the chest bursters are later ejaculated out
>>214580767>The writers literally forgot they had a whole army standing thereWhy?Why is this show like this?
>>214580629I liked her at the start. Its amazing how much i hate her now. Same with Nibs. At this point i dont even know who im rooting for.
>>214580767actually, the stupid part was that they knew they were synths, they were ordered not to hurt them, and yet the retard soldier tried to antagonize them.also there were a crazy amount of soldiers behind that container like it's some sort of military clown car.
this was hot tho
>what about my streetshitting mum in mumbai?
>>214580987at this point I'm rooting for the boy genius and his entire company. Especially the gigachad robot that is working for him
>>214581003They were IN the container, anon.
>>214581102This whole thing was awful. Like wtf am I watching?
what is the fucking deal with this cybanigga anyway? What was the plan? Just waltz in their headquarter by the front door, in the broad daylight, with 6 fucking mercs?Shouldnt covert ops be done at night and infiltrate from the unseen angles?this show is so so so fucking stupid man
>>214580172Isaac who conveniently has one eye missing.
>>214580959>>214580767Are you fucking retarded? They were ordered not to shoot at the synths. This is a dumb as shit show, yet it still filters your cletus ass.
>>214581003>don't damage the merchandise>bring guns anyway
>>214581133Kino, anon, you we're watching, Kino.
i want to nibble nibs
>>214581121yep. in that small container, nearly 2 dozen sweaty soldiers are waiting in the dark for the gotcha moment.
>>214580172>Next ep has Boy finally talking to eyeball in the new human host having his intellectual discussion>Final scene shows blood on the floor>Camera pans up>Boy with eyeball now in him looks directly at the camera>What ive done by Linkin Park starts playing>Roll credits
>>214581153>"Guys we need you go to get the synths">"Take guns but don't use them">"If they refuse to come with you just point your guns at them and let them go">"Also if they start tearing you to pieces just point your guns at them and die"
what a trashy dog shit showmy expectations were low and yet..
>>214580128Absolute, utter garbage. And just like that, Disney has ruined another franchise. Predator is next with that upcoming Badlands slop.
>>214581153Why do they have guns then? Cant they just EMP them or shut them down remotely? Or are they supposed to just stand there and watch them get killed off one by one by them?
>>214581238>>214581153you know what is real dumb? they have electric guns that could disable but not kill the synthand nobody was using it
>>214581238Yes. They're mindless golems and they do as they're told.
The male hybrids can't even move a body that weighs probably no more than ~200lbs, while the females can mangle trained soldiers and tango with Xenos. The vast disparity in capability between Wendy and the rest of the lost boys is so laughable that it's a small wonder why they even needed any of the others, in fact, they've only ever been a nuisance.
>>214581254
WHAT
>>214581254I am all of the Jedi.
>>214581315DID
>>214580172Either the cougar, or the bald fuck. Maybe Kavalier himself but I doubt the show will do that.Most definitely the dumb cougar though, Kavalier is almost certain to be thinking about her, and in that way we also get each "parent" figure killed by the 2 most interesting alien specimens in the show.
>>214581334YOU
>>214581310she xeno
wow that was terrible.
>>214581352DOOOOOO
>we need you to capture our extremely valuable and important hybrids>they can easily be disabled with EMP guns>but we're going to equip you with rifles instead>also don't use the rifles on them
>A walking eyeball knows what Pi is
>>214581371it was actually worse than last eppy.
>>214580571i thought the fat black chick figured out on her own since she said something like "see? told you he would be here!"then again, i wasn't paying attention after the jurassic world plotline started
>>214581385All advanced civilizations know Pi and express it in arabic numbers.
this writing is so cliched. as in the dialogue is made up of nothing but clichés.>at an advanced level, technology is indistinguishable from magic>it's my world... he's just living in it
>changes your passwordwhat now?
Redditors eating this slop up.
>>214580767synths cost 6 billion each. what do you think is more valuable? soldiers or synths?
>>214581412>me watching a•e
>>214581436Godawful color palette
>>214581431bypass the compressor
>>214580128This would have been cool, IF it was just one alien and that alien was damaged enough to have its senses impaired so it could heal and then turn on the retard kids later.
>>214580597So just like real life?
>>214580128Hey, I've seen this one before!
Is there such a thing as forgiveness?
>>214581408eyeguy infected the ship's engineer.so no-shit that it knows about pi.boy genius is getting duped.of course, eyeguy doesn't have a brain, so no idea where all the information gets stored.it probably has some advanced organic ssd.
>>214581436Why does reddit and 4chan love the fucking eyeball so much
>>214581278>poops on the floor, which is a big no for any advanced species>"no" in German is "nein">which is pronounced like "nine"Bravo, Hawley.
>>214581493LMAO the background is a fucking still image. Look at the water. Roll back a few second and u see the sea moving but this angle the water is still
The Reddit copium over why Slightly and Smee are transporting Arthur on a raft instead of one of them just carrying him is because "they're still young and haven't figured out their strength yet".>Slightly drags body>"hmm that was easy, dude weighs almost nothing">picks him up>"Wow I'm really strong"Apparently that is an impossible scenario
>>214581498Retards like the show because it's written specifically for them
>>214581278Cameron ruined it 40 years ago, so meh.
>>214581442see>>214581381
>>214581498I'm literally shaking rn.
>>214581436>I thought the embryo got washed out with the waterFACE HUGGERS PUT A TUBE DOWN YOUR ESOPHAGUS AND SHIT A BABY DOWN IT WASHED OUT HOW

>>214580128>"uwu whose face shall i rip off next mommy?"
>>214581535>Phuck around with an incredibly expensive product
>surprise you dumb black nigger baboonjesus christ raimi
I shit on this show since ep 2 or three for their dumb fuck writting. At that time 4channellers still loved this dumb ass show and lashed out at me. LOL, Lmao even. where are you now, dumb fuck morons, look at this shit show and tell me with a straight face that its good
Mods!!! Delete this thread it's filled with spoilers!!! Also they all pirated the show!!!
>>214581381Yeah, it's not like there's xenos running around and enemy Yutani soldiers....
>>214581254>>214581310>>214581315>>214581334>>214581352>>214581378https://youtu.be/6BoTEvcxy2U?si=ZDGssOQe5cNli3BJ&t=50
>>214580128Another terrible waste of an episode... how hard can it be to write a good script!?
>>214581498I mean, the ocellus is the most compelling alien in the show. The xenomorphs have been reduced to tamed pets but ocellus is actually smart and takes over bodies in a delightfully gruesome way.
>>214581570yeah me too, I was specifically shitting on NOAH for his fucking horrible writing and you know what, fucking GOYS here raise up to defend their master NOAH. Fucking NOAH white knight on fucking 4chan. Unbelievable
>>214581570>stop liking what I don't like
>>214581561models aren't pretty, they just have to be shaped odly so fashion designers can quell their weird fetishes
>>214581588The EMP guns also disable the xenomorphs as we have seen
>>214581587LMAO
>>214581617a NOAH shilling goy showed up
so you need 2 synths to carry a manbut a synth can also crush heads with its hand
>>214581604fucking kek
Spoilers aren't allowed!!!Stop!!!
my theory is that eyeball (tinkerbell) is an alien explorer that got robinson crusoe'd on some alien planet and then kidnapped by the humans thinking it's native to that planethow else would it know what pi wasunless it like sucks up the intelligence and memories of its hosts
>>214581635>WAAAAH!!!
>>214581283>they have electric guns that could disable but not kill the synth>and nobody was using itWeyland-Yutani has those, not Prodigy. Hermit grabbed one off one of the WY squads that ambushed them.I would also expect electrical weapons to be more lethal to synths than humans too, unless they somehow account for that.
Look at this dumb fuck, mid 90 IQ retard, inbred looking "director", "writer"holy shit how can someone this incompetent lands millions dollars gig?
.
>>214581676why haven't you if you're so smart
>>214581691another Noah defender shows upgoddamn are you fucking the retard himself? why would anyone give a shit about this little retard, on fucking 4chan of all place
>>214581639It was his jaw
Wendy has perfect pits
>>214581722no tell me, why aren't you a successful writer?
>next ep is the finaleIs it just or does it all just not seem epic enough? How will they tie up all the plot points so far in 1 episode? It feel like were halfway through the season and there should be 8 more episodes.
>>214581740because iam a fucking programmer, fucko. Thats not my fucking job. And yet I could write better than you, little inbred Noah.
>>214580128Stop watching this shit already
>>214581757do it
>>214580172>Morrow100 bucks
>>214581530Aliens did not ruin it. It logically followed a scenario that was very plausible, as extrapolated from what was shown and implied in Alien.What ruined it was the utter and complete obsession with the xenomorphs going further with the franchise, when they've never been the point.
>Power Rangers tier Xeno costume>le woman screaming>catching a chestbuster in a jungle like if it was nothing>releasing the xeno >Kirsh's absurd shenanigansTold you the last 2 episodes were going to turn this shit into a pure garbage show
>>214581769>WAAH!! Stop liking what I don't like
>>214581743It's fast pace, but they're hitting the beats.
>>214581740>write your own script if you're so great
>>214581801stream that film if you're so great
>>214581151OK /tv/ bookies, I retract my 100 on morrow and and I'd like to go two way 50 on morrow and 50 on Tootles given anon correctly saw the foreshadowing of BK looking at multilated Tootles and then telling Atom he had the right 'person' in mind. I'd also throw another 100 on the Midge balling being a cliffhanger and we having to wait 2.5 years to find out.
why is the cgi so bad?
>>214581844STOP QUESTIONING THINGS OK?
>>214581810Gladly.
>>214581844because it's a tv show?you are a fucking retard
>>214581844look at the background at 23:40 and 23:51lol, lmao, this is some high school level production
>>214580375>what went right bros?Nibs getting toasted like a roastie
Boy Kavalier The child genius
>>214580172They will implant Hermit Sr. with the eyeball and use him to trick Wendy by playing with her emotions.
>>214580128>WTF did i just watchretarded and gay crap, same as all along
>>214580411
>>214580128Which WEG is this from?
>>214580614This is what happens when you have a fag showrunner who isn't interested in Alien and the xenomorph, but is interested in plugging his own 'le quirky eyeball creature' and other stupid monster creations. But it's just the general incompentence of everything. Even decent characters are being sawed their legs off because the shit writing and plotting.
>>214581876>have phaser beams 60 years ago that can stun anything in one hit>don't have phaser beams on-board Nostromo nor at your space colonies in the future so everyone dies
>>214581784It completely ignored the scope of the original film: the Space Jockey (a creature from a much more advanced civilization that had already been killed a long time ago), plus the entire aspect of the ruthless, sinister, corporation treating humans like disposable trash, going as far as to infiltrate an android into the crew because it was secretly plotting to get a specimen (and reduced it to them being nothing more than a clueless and incompetent board of regular CEOs, and made Burke into the sole villain acting on his own), only to make a dumb retread almost bit for bit (the crew encounters the Xenos -> oh no, they all got killed, we need to get out and detonate the entire colony/nostromo -> oh no, where's the fucking cat/new, we have go find her last minute -> everything explodes! we are finally safe! -> oh no, the creature's on board, we have to flush it out into space!), but with shittier dialog, shittier characters, shittier themes, more explosions, and a bigger='better' creature that was ultimately useless and greatly demystified its origins and actions by turning them into ants. And they couldn't even be arsed to hire or even use Giger's original design.
>>214580543>someone blocked layer 3 routing
[CLICKING NOISES]
>>214581116FUCKING BASED. Reddit's favourite niglet got absolutely BTFO.
what was Morrow plan anyway? He did just walk in prodigy's headquarter front door, in the middle of the day, just likes that? What the fuck did he expect?
I'm gonna miss these threads ;_;
>>214581674Anon the retards didn't pay any attention. They didn't hear the Prodigy guys say "protect the merchandise". They didn't see Hermit take the WY weapon. They're all retarded. Maybe media literacy really is real. Really makes you think.
>>214580128Is the white haired android racist or something? I don't watch this show
This episode sucked even more than the previous one. The whole thing feels like some retard in the year 2002 coming up with an Alien TV show. I could totally imagine this being some early 2000's young adult TV show that we laugh at in 2025, but actually it's the year 2025 and this is an actual TV show being aired right now.
>>214582020Why would he? All fleshbags look same.
>>214582026Wrong, lol.
>>214581145>cybanigga>stupidWell yes.
>>214582005He thought he'd have more time before the chestburster did its thing and they'd sneak out quietly.
>>214582014fucking dumb, taser is a thing, you know. You were saying, prodigy's goons dont have the equivalent to weyland-yutani stun gun? Taser fucking exists right now.
>>214580623no, we're not, same as we've never beenpedospace moar, faggot
>>214580172It won't be Dame. Kavalier said "One of the scientists maybe" and then suggested the mold scrubber instead. And then he said "No.. wait.. I know just who to use" and the camera cut to Hermit. Now the camera cut could have been misdirection, but it looks like he discounted using any of the scientists.
>>214582064what about the security, the cameras, the guards? And front door, really?
>>214581310The Chandler legacy is in such safe hands.
>Boy Kavalier lays on the floor dying>he looks up at Kirsh who brings a flute to his lips and plays a tune>from the shadows, a corresponding tune answers and a figure emerges> Kirsh 1: "Welcome, Brother! You have symphony!" > Kirsh 2 looks into the dying Kavalier's eyes and smirks: "I'll do the fingering!"
Hi /tv/ Should I watch this show I've heard mixed things
>>214580987>At this point i dont even know who im rooting forcancellation?well, that's whom I'm rooting for
>>214581530Correct.>>214581949Unfathomably correct.
>>214582014>>214581674
>>214581343This.The next episode is season finale, it's going to be kavalier during an accident while trying to put it on Hermit.Season 2 will have Yutani-Weyland take over Prodigy.Got to remember prodigy is irrelevant so something does happen to it.
>>214581254>NOT MY HECKIN NIBBERINO
>>214582122if you like jurassic world fallen kingdom, i robot, and resurrection, yes
>>214581408well, not so advanced anyway, because he thinks pi~=3.1415, and not to 3.1416nor do the writers
>>214581254>The Force is female!Why is modern entertainment like this?
why do they keep showing the alien in bright full light? it looks like SHIT
>>214582078He's gonna put the eye in the butler guy.
>>214582122really dog shit writing and plottoo many pointless scenes and too little aliens/xenomorph action
>>214581496>no idea where all the information gets storedlike piss: it's stored in the balls
>>214581238>"Oh yeah also our guns have special electric taser modes...sometimes..."
>>214580629I thought she was supposed to be the likable protag? Redditors must hate her now. I for one find it funny that she doesn’t care who dies.
>>214582122it's one of the best shows on air right now. Ignore the haters who are fans from the 1980s and can't ever let the Alien franchise evolve even 1%
>>214581617couldn't you just stop liking shit?they'll make more and worse shit, since you go on with them...
>>214582222They think the cgi looks good and they want to showcase it.
>>214581737no way they're all stringy and gross
>10/10 production and set design>0/10 writingHow the fuck did this happen?
>>214582192this show could go for 8 seasons, you dont know.
Now that the dust has settled, what the fuck was the point of Nib's arc
>>214582267its a suit. thats why the xeno looks so fucking small, there is a man inside the suit
>>214580128for me, i liked it. the brother is a little bitch. the robot kids need to realize that they are just robots with dead kids memories and not the actual kids themselves. the alien has looked hokey since ep 1. occulus the goat as usual
i haven't watched the new episode yet bros what am i in for?
>>214581676>how can someone this incompetent lands millions dollars gig?simplejust get on your knees, and let greasy jews do unspeakable things to you, then ask for always moarall in all, just do the same thing the retarded monkeys enjoying such a "show" let hawley do to them

>>214582275to give wendy the motivation to release the alien and attempt to leave the island
>>214582288prepare your anus for the worst
>>214580264This is the big problem with streaming.Episodes 1-3 were a "movie" about a crashed ship and investigating it.Episodes 4-7 are a big pile of nothing because it can't end till episode 8.Episode 8 is going to kill off most of the cast and we might even see what the plant does, but maybe not because fuck you watch season 2.It's not even a show, it's just a product. Slop for the streaming service.
>>214582275Nibs gets restarted next eppy
>>214582288It's Jurassic World all over again.
>>214582288don't listen to the guy shitting on it, he does this to every new show that's even remotely talked about
>>214582288Mr. Beanutbutter
>>214581530>>214581784I used to not like Aliens much, but now I appreciate it a whole lot now that Alien: Earth showed what it had to offer. As a side not I especially like it after watching Prometheus and Covenant since the xenomorph queen was foreshadowed with David using Shaw to produce the xenomorph eggs. I used to be in the David-didn't-create-xenos camp but at this point I'd rather watch more of Ridley Scott's ancient aliens bullshit than Noah Hawley's close minded and dull reddit fanfic.
>>214582228the butler is a synth too
>>214582122Fuck everyone, it’s entertaining. I’m surprised since 95% of these straight to streaming shows are unbearable. This one is worth your time. And you can bounce at any time.
>>214582305what was the point of isaac's arc

>>214582203>>214582229>>214582267>>214582325>>214582258Thanks guys I am now excited to watch this show, I just watched the trailer and it seems like a fun romp through the alien universe. I can't wait to see how all the different aliens, (the eyeball is cute!( End up affecting the plot!I'll post updates on my viewing as I go.Btw where do I need to buy subscription to watch the show (I don't pirate)
>>214580128>Wendy domesticating the xeno in 5 minutesfeels like a /v/ trope
>>214582379>(I don't pirate)bait post used to be believable u know
>>214582337I wish both Prometeus and Covenant were made decades earlier, with much better writers, a less senile Ridley Scott, and without the clusterfuck of shit lore that was created after the original film, without the reduced universe Cameron introduced.
>>214582391she could domesticate me if you know what i mean
>>214582288not a good time fren
>>214582374they already knew that from its brain waves alone
>>214582288Stop posting frogs
>Stop posting frogs
I unironically loved the first few episodes. Things were happening and it seemed bold. Then it just started feeling like it was written by ChatGPT.
>>214582441
OI BYPASSED THE COMPRESSEH
what was the outro song this episode?
>>214582445That's to draw you in. After that, the plot has to slow to a crawl until episode 8 when everyone dies really fast.
>>214582453my brother doesn't know queens of the stone age
>>214582222because they think their redditor audience wants muh practical effects but they don't understand that in the original movie they always hid the xenomorph's true form with lighting to hide the fact that it was a guy in a suitthey literally lack the ability to know what looks good, all they know is that practical effects are supposedly good and therefore you can show them in bright outdoor lightingpractical effects are good if you use them right
I ignore the stupid parts as liberties taken by stupid writers to accomplish the story and just rewrite it in my head to make it make sense.

If they hadn't been ambushed at the boat, and Wendy wanted the Xeno to leave the island with them, would Joe have let it? Clearly that possibility had to be running through Joe's head.

>>214581949>the Space Jockey (a creature from a much more advanced civilization that had already been killed a long time ago)The studio wanted Cameron to make an action sequel (and he delivered exactly that), so it makes sense not to pursue this alternative, even though I'd also have liked to have that one be explored (in Alien 3 or whatever other sequel, that's not washed up Ridley's Prometheus trilogy, that's also just yet another project stapled onto the Alien IP by studio execs)>plus the entire aspect of the ruthless, sinister, corporation treating humans like disposable trashEven the little insights into this that were originally there got cut from theatrical version, because the movie was too long. So it wasn't ignored, just not focused on.> only to make a dumb retread almost bit for bitThat was kind of the point, it was a similar scenario, but with a much more competent "crew" and more even playing field.> creature that was ultimately uselessIt was always supposed to be "just a bio weapon" even in the original> And they couldn't even be arsed to hire or even use Giger's original design.Not even the original Alien used Giger's design as he imagined it IIRC, it took until the Species series for him to see it realized, and even then it was yet again very different from the xenomorph.
>>214582590it's not going to be beastie boysit'll be something popular like guns & roses, opeth, led zeppelin, ac/dc, or judas priest
>>214582702anon put your glasses on your episode is all blurry
>>214582337I love that she pulls her lounge out. Means she wants to give oral sex.
>>214582153Cool, you've proven that Prodigy has cattle-prods/stun-rods, those aren't electro/stun rifles though? So moving the goal posts, much?
>>214582740Cameron's sequel is literally the only reason the series is famous and still chugging along half a century later. Everyone wanted more scary xeno infestations and space marines shooting them. Ridley's shit movie would have been a forgotten b movie scifi slop had there not been a fantastic followup. Many movies fell down that hole.
>>214582786a lounge isn't exactly something you pull out
>>214580597in fairness corporations are genuinely twice retarded most of the time irl
>>214582796>Cameron's sequel is literally the only reason the series is famousIt has a shit fucking legacy, we would be spared of garbage like this show. Good riddance.
>>214582796Truthed and nuked. Even the AVP films shit as they are helped keep the legacy going because people just wanna see them fighting
>>214582796it's legacy is to show normies how much of a hack cameron is
>>214582702It's a crane you dumb fuck
>>214582804
>>214581516Did they spend like an hour building a raft?
Damn. I knew it was definitely going to get worse when she first started to talk to the xeno. What a waste. I thought Hawley was supposed to be kino?
>>214581569Where the fuck did all these soldiers come from?The lab's been empty for like half the season and now these guys are swarming like ants
>>214582867obv. but the director lingers on it and reduces the characters to ants compared to it. how come?>the power and persistance of nature versus manmade technology?>decay of Boy Kavaliers empire?>some bullshit about foreshadowing?>space jockey reference?
>>214582834I feel like Predatortards are a whole separate faction. I don't want to see the predator and the xenomorph fighting. I want to see humans get terrorized by things they can't control.Predator is good as its own separate movie series.
>>214582796It's quite possible you're right, and I never even denied that. Personally I very much love Aliens and I like it more than Alien, as a movie. I just also agree with the opinion that focusing on just the xenomorph and/or corpo/synth "cold evil greed" is kinda wasting the potential of the Alien "universe" if not franchise.
>>214582978Well when the alien franchise truly innovates it puts people off just like prometheus But romulus which is a redo gets praise
>>214582953morrow and yutani talked about increased security at the island in one of the previous episodes
>>214582907Good thing one of them knew how to craft rafts without tools in the jungle. Isaac didn't even know how to put a tray into a cell without trapping himself in it.
>>214582971nvm episode director is the guy from Shot Caller, its slop meant to be poignant that doesn't mean anything
>>214583000>Well when the alien franchise truly innovates it puts people off just like prometheusThat's because the IP holders, for some fucking retarded reason, keep trying to staple the Alien IP onto other original projects, that want nothing to do with it, regardless if it's Ridley's Prometheus or Hawley's Alien: Earth, and it's kind of infuriating to be honest.
>>214582995To me, the setting and aesthetic was always the most interesting part and why I enjoyed the idea that Blade Runner and Outland are connected to it. It's fun to watch because of the limitations imposed on the stories by their retro technology. Space actually feels big and empty, communications aren't instant, it takes forever to travel anywhere, cameras and equipment sucks ass, etc. It's ripe for so many stories. But man do they really have a problem making directors understand that concept, snd they immediately just want to give them holographic super computer nanobots, in brightly lit scenes, with warp speed, and instantly ruin it.
>>214583000Prometheus was not an innovation. Trying to take it seriously ruins anything "alien" about Alien. Why can you still not understand that?
>>214583035I'm gonna level with you, it isn't retarded, its smart. I ONLY watched this show because last week i saw 1 ad for it and said "alien TV show? Shit im in". I binged the 5 eps released at the time and I'm here no matter how retarded this show gets as each episode passes. There's real value in brand
>>214583085prometheus and covenant were actually unsetting and at times scary, unlike anything in alien:earth so far. the only thing felt while watching earth is that cringe you get when you see someone fucking up or about to fuck up. that's the only form of horror in it.
>>214582702Go rewatch the scene in Episode 4 where Arthur and Dame talk outside.
>>214582792do you think its reasonable that they dont have fucking kill switch in case the hybrids go rogue? They can already watch things through their eyes, but no turn off switch?also why didnt they bring stun rods then, instead of rifles? by the way we already have ranged taser in modern days, let alone in the future. dumb fucking shit writing
>>214583157Of course it's unreasonable. The entire show is written by medically classified retards being overseen by apathetic suits, wannabe midwits and brainwashed morons. I'm not even attempting to defend this piece of shit show, but some folks (even around here) are making some really dumb arguments when trying to defend or attack it, so I was just doing a random drive-by "ackshually", since the interaction in threads like these is the only way to get any kind of satisfaction out of Hawley's godforsaken creation.
>>214582796I couldn't give less of a fuck about this shitty "franchise" when the only good thing to ever come out of it was made BEFORE Cameron arrived. Alien already existed and would continue to exist without him. And if people would have continued to care or not (they absolutely would, because it was already iconic before Cameron) it's irrelevant. Maybe you fucks wouldn't be polluting the original so much with your garbage taste, garbage sequels, garbage videogames, and garbage shows.
>WHAT DIDJU DOOOOOHaha classic
>>214581396I dunno. Maybe, I'm making shit up to try and justify wasting my time watching something this retarded.
So all Kirsh wanted is to BTFO the giganigga? That's it? So he's still loyal to Prodigy?
she looks like a chud
>>214581561>jeet>runway modellol. lmao even.
>>214582370>getting startedAt this rate they might actually do something in season 6. Wey-Yu got btfo inbetween commercial breaks, there isn't a conflict.
>>214580172>Place your bets on who's getting eyeballed:Morrow
>>214581784Alien did ruin it. Cameron reduced the Knife wielding maniac in the room to a swarm of Africanized killer bees, so obviously thematic presence and aesthetic also changed, and not for the better Ill tell you what.
>>214581935So like real life then?
>>214580264this should have been a MUCH longer season. it's fucking retarded that they only have 8 episodes. this should just be mid point of the season not the end.
>>214582796It's unreal after all this time, they have not given us ONE (1) single additional "marines versus aliens" movie, AND YET PEOPLE STILL BLAME "hurr durr muh marines versus aliens" For the series being shit, WHEN EVERY SINGLE ALIEN FOLLOWUP HAS TRIED IT YOUR "HIGH IQ" (fucking retarded btw) wayIt's so obnoxious
>>214583265I'm only here to funpost
WHAT DO YOU DOOOOOOO?????
>>214583557you can see it walking on a wall in the background in the next episode's preview. it looks like a flesh umbrella.
>WHAT DID YOU POOuh oh stinky
>>214583275Add it to the pile of growing subplots hinted at but ultimately scrapped for more young adult novel scooby squad slop.
>>214581561>look up pics of Lily Newmark>every single one is the same boring face with lips slightly open at the front with a deadpan stare>find one with her smiling, picrelwhy do they make models do this? she is so much more beautiful with a not dead stare and a smile.
>>214583557Kavalier is going to be the last man standing. He'll be laughing to himself about his good luck, and then SCHLORP.
>>214583423*Aliens
>>214583154Just tell everyone you smarmy fuck
>>214580533See you next week
There's a lot of dumb shows out there but this one takes the shit cake.
>>214583587the point of female models isn't to be attractive to men, its to be self-insertable blank validation figures for women.
>>214583498"hurr durr muh marines versus aliens" gave us Fireteam Elite and Colonial MarinesThe actual answer is to do aliens vs blue collar schmucks and then MAYBE call in the marines
>>214583423>Alien did ruin it.That's just your opinion>Cameron reduced the Knife wielding maniac in the room to a swarm of Africanized killer beesTrue, the movie went from "killer in a haunted house, but in space" to "bug hunt on a colony", but it's still the same xenomorphs.> so obviously thematic presence and aesthetic also changedI didn't ever deny that, in fact I called it out, that the change was as designed/requested by the project> and not for the better Ill tell you what.Again, that's just your subjective opinion. And given the widespread praise and inclusion of Aliens as one of the few movie sequels in the examples people give on how to make a good sequel, you just might be in the minority here? Nothing wrong with that, though.
>>214583587gingers models are hired for their horror factor not their beauty
