Talking sheep editionPrevious: >>214165400
>>214180769If the last general prunes before hitting the limit, it's not necessary to make a new thread. Learn some fucking manners.
>>214180800I deny your reality and substitute it with my own
I watch for she
>>214180874what the fuck. i thought she looked hotter in the show. just goes to show what makeup and bangs can do for ugly jungle asians
that scene with the sheep was disturbing, I have a thing where I can't watch eye gore (maybe cuz I wear glasses dunno) and it fucked me up
>>214180949she literally looks like a 3/10 peasant chink auntie outside the show kek
>>214180949>>214180994you got yellow fever'd (again). this is the harsh reality of all passport bros.
>>214181353ship xeno is a she
>>214181353the xeno lurking behind him is the best scene so far, maybe alongside sheep on two legs
>>214181423proofs???!?!?!!? isn't only the queen a she?
>>214180769Why is that goat standing upright?
>>214181439All xenomorphs are female
>>214181455>goatanon...
>>214181476wtf I hate xenomorphs now
>>214180874It’s dumb enough that they’re going with the idea that Weyland-Yutani is run by one woman named “Ms. Yutani” but if we really ARE going with that, why the hell did you get the most generic Southeast jungle Asian to play a Japanese woman?
Here's my theory. Boy Retard will out a human into the sheep pen with the goal to speak to the ye thingy once it starts driving the human. It won't work. Meanwhile Wendy's pet will grow and be somewhat manageable, so Retard will have the bright idea of talking to it... but how? Wendy is clearly mimicking the language and can't translate. Since the xenomorph is a kid in human terms in won't have trouble transferring to an android body. So Retard will transfer the xenomorph consciousness into an android making a xeno hybrid.
>>214181519>southeast jungle asianI was gonna say her bio on sites is Danish-American actress, but then>Born in Busan, South Korea, Sencindiver and her twin-sister were adopted by an American father and Korean mother, before her father later remarried a Danish woman which saw her moving to Denmark at the age of nine-years-old.
>>214181562sorry about the typos, it's really late here
>>214181562They're not going to make a brain transfer off a Xenomorph with a completely new never-scanned silicon brain. If they wanted to talk to the Xenomorph, Wendy can still explain its intention (Which better be just murder-kill-reproduce). The chekrov gun would be T. Ocellus taking over the decapitated corpse of the first alien as the final boss and Wendy talking to it to be smug vindicative bastard before revealing its lifecycle with its babies infecting Boy Retard.
>>214181719Ocellus can't taker over dead bodies. Needs a living brain. Plus, acid blood and shit.
>>214181751inb4 he is immune to the acid blood and is the ultimate predator of xenomorphs
>>214181751It just needs the neuro pathway, the computer just says that it hijack optical nerves to send electrical signals through the host bodies.Good thing about the blood but I'm pretty sure the acidic blood would have dried by now and I think that it will use synthblood as a replacement. Xenomorph just seen to be too much a hard counter to the eyeball that thankfully it's given high intelligence and a ton of idiotic humans giving it the tools to counter it.
>>214181719>>214181751>>214181797xenos have no eyes how would an eye parasite do anything?
Rooting for Curly.
>>214181797>>214181801I'm actually 100% sure that it will be a skinwalker type of parasite that tries to blend in with its high intelligence as much as possible cause it has no other advantages over a regular Xenomorph infestation other than not automatically killing the host.
>>214181801>and a ton of idiotic humans giving it the tools to counter it.kek and based
>>214181801>the computer just says that it hijack optical nerves to send electrical signals through the host bodiesOh so it doesn't burrow into the brain with the tentacles? Interesting.
>>214181814cute webm. now that nibs is crazy curlybros are on the rise.
>>214181808They have the sockets behind the carapace.
I still don't get why Wendy has a connection to the Xenomorphs.
>>214181751Idk, feels like that cat was already pretty dead before eyetopus took over
>>214181885Hawley said in an interview that it's a quirk of her technology, nothing special
When is Kirsh going to turn on Boy and get him facehugged or eye gouged?
>>214181821How can it blend in when it needs to shred the eye socket and surrounding areas to enter? Given theyve already seen how it works if someone shows up with a hurt, bloody eye its an instant tell
>>214181906Nah, it died when he left it, but there's no way to know what its initial condition was and we have seen it take over living things only
>>214180874It's "her", you ESL tardo.
>>214181913what about muuh three laws? he is prolly heavily programed to obey.
>>214181918It can blend in with animals or semi-intelligent species.
>>214181936>first day on /tv/
>>214181940Technically, he wouldn't be killing him, just leading to a place where space animals might or not kill him.
>>214181986>finally get some hotties with Cailee and Moner>Alien Erf goes back to pig disgusting mutts and uggosBravo Hawley
>>214181995That still counts. Through "action or inaction cause harm"
>>214181997I don't know what would be weirder when creating adult bodies for little girls, making them hot or making them ugly?
>>214181997The MILF a cute tho
>>214182011he could probably manipulate Boy into ordering him into bringing him to a dangerous place, Kirsh is smart.
>>214180800how about you fuck off
>Yutani has super cyborgs decades before Alien>No cyborg defending the Nostromo, when it makes sense to send one super security cyborg to defend every ship.>No cyber enhanced marines in Alien 2, when that technology is perfect for creating super soldiers>No cyborg prison guards on 3Lol, this reminds me of Fallout 4, where there's one immortal cyborg guy cretaed by the Institute, and one computer terminal line saying they simply lost the tech to make more of them.
1 more day sisters. What do you think the Aliens are saying? do they have a favorite movie? do they like classic rock?
Some eyeball foreshadowing, I think this is a walrus Wendy had as a baby.
>>214182090This is the same toy I believe.
>>214182084I really hope they aren't trying to recycle the abandoned "super smart aliens" idea, any intelligence the aliens have should be focused on making them stronger predators.
>>214180769>ship couldn't steer>except the thrusters were still firing>even the mildest change in thrust from a far distance in space would stop the ship from colliding with the earth>Wendy is supposed to not have emotions>she very clearly does have emotions and loves her brother
>>214182082>No cyborg defending the Nostromo, when it makes sense to send one super security cyborg to defend every ship.Why would you need it on a rusty refinery ship? You sending NAVY Seals to guard every single oil rig now?>No cyber enhanced marines in Alien 2, when that technology is perfect for creating super soldiersColonial marines are bad hombres, simple as.>No cyborg prison guards on 3The prison was abandoned and derelict. Nothing worked, from cameras to pipes. Makes no sense to have advanced tech guards.
>>214182142>frogposter is dumb
>>214182202Many such cases
>>214182108MODS
>>214182090Nice catch
>>214182084>do they have a favorite movie?Wendy will show them her favorite, Ice Age.
>>214181862Timothy Olybot is so cool
>>214181862Did they deliberately make him look like Roy Batty?
>>214182032She's going to get facehugged. Nibs will snap and learn she can't have a kid, and then implant Dame instead. Either that or the Indian kid is going to implant the brother after creeping on him last episode.
>>214182032She really does look like Tink hagged out
>>214182513yes>>214182538yes
>>214182557even the hair kek
>>214182538well if it wasn't on purpose it's one helluva coincidence
>>214182602uncanny
>>214180769that's one creepy fucking sheep
When they were giving the brother the lung transplant, what were they doing to his spine at the same time?
>>214180874probably would, at this point I have no standards, except fatties, big no no there
The Peter Pan bullshit is actually growing on me
>>214182654repairing it?>>214182673I dislike it hard
>>214182673Also I'm missing 30% of my brain, not sure if that's relevant
>Prodigy owns Japan instead of Yutaniwhat
>>214182680>repairing it?Oh, I thought they were adding something, probably thinking too much on it.
>>214182699what was even the point of introducing all these new companies when the only thing we know about them is their names? seegson in isolation was done so much better
>>214182737>seegson enters the android tech race with budget retard robots when androids, cyborgs and hybrids were already on the market decades before from the space faring dominant 5 corposthis retcon sucks
>>214182699Weyland-Yutani isn't even American. It's a British-Japanese conglomerate.It was a joke on Leyland, the British car company
>>214181476How do you know? Did you go around and lift all the xenomorphs shirts?
>>214182826They literally gossip with each other even before they are born
>>214182826Just look at their alien butts, definetly females
>>214182699>nobody owns south americalol why
>>214182699not canon
>>214183287its yutani, look
>>214183016LOL
>>214183330oh the outlines. Nevermind I am dumb.
>>214183314Nothing beyond Aliens is canon, and people will still shout at me saying Aliens doesn't count because it was Cameron not Ridley. I say to them people go watch Prometheus and tell me it's canon.
>>214183429All the movies and most books are canon. Comics are complicated, but some are canon.
>>214183429Black goo is canon
how do you classify whats canon and not. Feels like like the word has lost its meaning with time.
uh oh. how accurate are episode appearance infos on ImdB?
>>214182699um ackshully
>>214183569The generally accepted canon rules are:Primary canon - everything shown on screen. Movies/shows trump everything else.Secondary canon - all media (books, games, comics, RPGs) that is not specifically stated as not canon is true and canon as long as it's not contradicted by on screen information/dates/events. That means books that are canon today will not be if a movie comes out in 10 years and comtradicts them.Not canon - everything specifically stated not to be - certain games, books and comcis are known to be not canon straight from the publisher. They are elseworlds stories. All interviews by cast and crew are not canon. Anyhting that happens outside the media - movies, books, games, etc. is not canon, that means advertising, entertainment parks, etc.Now, Alien Erf doesn't immediately supercede the books with its stupid take on direct corporate control, because there is a mesh between primary and secondary canon that has firnly confirmed it. The Three World Empire logo appears in Aliens for example.
Guys, I'm crying right now.Just looking at her picture makes me feel something strange inside. I guess you could call it "love". I'm in love with Wendy. I've lost interest in all girls, besides her.Wendy really is all I think about all day, every day. I really do cry myself to sleep at night thinking about how I'll never be with her. If only she knew I existed in this life, if only she knew my deep profound love for her. I know that will never happen though. That is the thought that makes me so sad when I look at her. I'll never be with her, but I'll continue to love her until the day I die.
>>214183937tl;dr: Alien Erf will probably end up being a parallel universe / timeline and not part of the main story if they keep putting fanfiction in the show and if it's impossible to massage it back into canon (you can say we are seeing internal corpo propaganda intended for their workers and corporate control is not real)
>>214183963Anon, thats a child....
>>214180769This show is painfully bad
>>214183730>enemy-controlled island right off the coast of Alaska
>>214184037thats russia
>>214184037>american education
>>214184052Russia is literally on the other side of the globe
>>214182552>the Indian kid is going to implant the brotherred herring. jeet will fuck up in typical jeet fashion and infect someone else
>>214184209absolutely based
>pajeet is the one getting phone scammed into doing something bad>and to save an old lady rather than screw herTalk about subverting expectations
>>214184281Either way, someone is definitely going to get infected and before the alien pops out they'll download their consciousness into a synthetic, but with some fucked up alien consciousness also downloaded.
>>214181814>argues she's smarter than all the other lost boys and aspires to be his favourite>is being told to go push some buttons while the adults talkThe writing in this show is hilarious, but for some reason the whole concept around a bored child prodigy creating sentient AI's based off dying childrens memory engrams is enticing enough to keep me watching that shit. This some Blade Runner tier shyt. I came for the xenos but stayed for the synths.
>>214184784needs more exploration of the topic. nibs gping crazy maybe that
>>214184674I can't see them off'ing the brother that way, he'll probably die but in different circumstances. Now that he has one synth lung the facehugger will probably go for a different target, maybe Dame Sylvia or her husband.Also note the way they set up the Ocellus creature sequence with the sheep and how Kavalier was annoyed by the fact it focused on Kirsh instead of him... I bet he'll end up controlled by that thing, probably with Kirsh's help.
>>214183999That's 29 year old actress Sydney Chandler.
>>214185066>29 year old actressa child
>>214182602>Commerce is our goal here at Disney. More Blade Runner than Blade Runner is our motto.
>>214183963I want to put my tongue in her nostrils.
>>214183718Ep 5 is a flashback to the Maginot
>>214185698Booba's back.
>>214186108the ukranian whore? I lost all interest after I learned she's a hoholina
>>214185698it's gonna be a snoozefest unless they also found a space jockey
>>214186201Keep being mad about a small country decimating yours during the "special military operation", Ivan. It wont change that your people keep being drone bombed in droves but its funnySlava Ukraini
>>214186244so they can shit on that as well? nah
>>214186289
>>214186289brainwashed faggot kek

>>214186201What a weird thing to fixate on, who cares if she's a sl*v? You weren't gonna marry her either way.
>>214186357I can't get hard for girls from shithole countries
>>214181912>I didn't put enough thermal paste on and now OH FUCK
>>214186244In the first episode they said they lost soldiers fighting the xenos. Would be interesting if the show actually spent money showing that.
>>214186296why not, it might turn out to be the one piece of shit that stuck to a wall. nobody considers the show canon anyway
>>214186381kek>>214186383My guess would be they will show the breakout on the ship and nothing else, but I'd love to be wrong. Showing the actual capture would be great.
>>214186381I'd buy it if it looked like that
>>214186383>>214186429doubt they can show that much in 1 ep. the show should have been first 4 eps on maginot and then the rest o earth.
>>214186429>My guess would be they will show the breakout on the ship and nothing else, but I'd love to be wrong. Showing the actual capture would be great.I would be happy if they showed a kind of highly truncated montage of how they capturied each of the specimens.
>>214186565>a montage of 5 short scenes of Morrow electrocuting and spraying with goo the alien specimens Could be fun
>>214180769>introduce child genius character >name his company "Prodigy">child is irreverent, offhand, shows a lack of proper concern>name him "Boy Kavalier"B R A V O H A W L E Y
>>214186856that's that Hawley twist they're always talkin about
>>214186856Outside of calling himself a genius has he shown anything to prove that?
>>214186914He is the youngest trillionaire in the Alien universe.
>>214186914He's proven himself to be quite retarded so far
>>214186914No, so far he's another "smart character, dumb writer" example.
how many hours left? its tonight right?
What would you anons do if you were a trillionaire?

So the eyeball alien thing is gonna jump into the Trillionaire's eye right? Will his new name be Captain Hook?
>>214187156Act arrogant to the fucking robot I created, even though there's lietarlly nothing I acn gain from it, and I could be arrogant to real people I didn't create.
>>214180769first thing the eye says once it attaches to a human?
>>214186350>literal nazi salute>literal nazi regimeIs this meant to be a bad thing?
>>214187346Captain hook lost a hand, not an eye.And I think he'll put the eye on the doctor woman, thinking he'll get a coversation out of it, not realizing that the intelligence those predators have is purely focused on killing.
>>214187381https://youtu.be/3eDTk0-Xz5o
>>214187417>not realizing that the intelligence those predators have is purely focused on killingWe might be surprised by the Eye-Pod Nano in this regard. They could be focused on bondling with the highest intelligence they can find.
>>214187417I don't think the eye is getting intentionally put on anyoneThe most wonderfully ominous thing about the sheep thing is how at the end he does nothing but stop and watchThe very instant he had a host he started contemplating how he's getting out of that cell

>>214181439The Xeno came from a woman's chest, right? The team behind the original Alien movie mentioned that the Xeno behaves in a rapey way with women because it came from Kane, a male host. So maybe xenos behave differently according to the hormones of its original host?
>>214187720>-ACK
>>214187736hm... that's too much for me, taking traits from species as whole sure, but from sexes even when some organism won't have sounds too specialized.. what would be the reason?
>>214187417>>214187479>>214187493All of you will be rending your garments in sadness and rage when I was right and now that he has sheep body his entire plan and endgame is eating grass
>>214187493Resurrection is NOT a bad movie.
>>214187777For the time it was average. My modern standards it's great
>>214187766Honestly that would elevate the show immediately for me. Subverting muuh expectations done right.
>>214187812Yeah I think you are right. I recently caught Terminator Salvation on TV on it was a fucking masterpiece compared to the ones that came after it. Not many liked it when it came out.
>>214187766>spoilerkek that'd be based af ngl
what if Nibs has a screaming ability?
>>214183937>Secondary canon - all media (books, games, comics, RPGs)this is rare asf to actually happen>Now, Alien Erf doesn't immediately supercede the books with its stupid take on direct corporate control, because there is a mesh between primary and secondary canon that has firnly confirmed it. you don't know what you're talking about. Most alien comics aren't cannon and are always up in the air for Ridley to write off. Some acknowledge black goo and predamorhps enhanced by black goo. There is tons of crazy stuff and lore for Promethus in the books that would make alien earth aspects non cannon (like the goo and acknowledging literally cannon) These are fan made books that are not cannon, JD Perry makes stuff up in his writing. He made that up in this book without any sources. again this is like claiming star wars comics are cannon just because you like them, but until Ridley or whoever he hands the franchise over to when he dies says they're cannon they're not cannon. if that was the case star wars legends would be cannon as they were accepted and published your whole meter of what's cannon and what isn't is completely bogus and fanpilled corpo shit
>>214187156Bioengineer RL catgirls and become quadrillionaire.
>>214187202Elon please.
>>214187937It's like you didn't read the rest of the post where I address all of that. Where I say specifically some stuff is not canon straight up form the publisher.As for Star Wars, what you call Legends was canon before Lucas sold it to Disney. The dude was autistic about his canon and had several tiers for the Expanded Universe.
>>214186383>they said they lost soldiers fighting the xenosThat's not what they said tho.
>>214187917Nibs is a Mother. Coincidence?
> no mention of Prodigy in any subsequent mediaGuess we know where this is going
>>214187937>Most alien comics aren't cannon and are always up in the air for Ridley to write offI don't see why the (admittedly talented) director-for-hire from the first movie has the final word on any of this. He didn't write the script for Alien.
>>214180874>>214180874I watch for Nibs
I did NOT want to see this in my Alien movies or shows
>>214188141>how it feels petting my roosteryeah I have chickens, fuck off
>>214187937just like for a movie trilogy the movies made by the creator are cannonmanga it's the manga the movies aren't cannon and the anime is only cannon if it sticks to the mangait was a huge deal when clone wars star wars characters and the spin off were added to cannonbut when shows fall of the lore so bad just to try and trick the lowest common denominator fans who are just in for a watch you get the acolyte that broke lore so hard it's no longer cannon . that franchise has been destroyed I'm just giving an example this happened with Darth plagues a lore book came out that everyone was hype on and claimed it was cannon and that was how he looked so officials had to come out and publicly state it wasnt cannon because it wasn't picking up tractionwhat really happened is.. hawleys Jew helpers did a bad job on their research like you are now and felt like this and what he saw on AVP was justification enough to make AVP cannon that book by JD Perry is either making shit up pulling it out his ass or he's getting it from avpeither way it's laughable it's the Darth plageuis lore book face reveal all over again
>>214187202>space stuff and immortality research, the usual
Why is some bitch always shit talking these threads in every single one of them? What is his problem? Why can't he ignore it and go post in whatever shit thread he likes?
>>214188013exactly before, and whenever Lucas wanted he could and would change that when making something new.. that's why it was such a big deal when bane was revealed to exra as a force memorySTOP POSING IM A REAL FAN BRUH
>>214186966>>214187232That's still just saying he's smart. We actually need to see that he could do those things.
Ridley Scott is not the creator of the Alien series of movies.
>>214188206and this was before Disney got a hold of it and Lucas sold it.. in case you need to Google that too
>>214188098There's no reason to mention them on the other movies (IIRC the never mention another corp other than WY) and the comics and books are non-canon material for retards.

>>214188630That's the new thing for corporates in real life though. As your main point of contact with the corporation becomes an app rather than a boss, they personify the corporation by having larger-than-life media personalities somewhere higher up. Back in the 70s and 80s it was just getting to the stage where you'd never have any chance at meeting any higher-ups, at most you'd meet a Burke type guy.

>>214187156I like this one >>214188941>high budget scifi tv series>meticulous detail, GoT S1/2 as a minimum bar>50 mil per episode at least>no political propagandaI'd buy the rights for some high quality scifi novels and have the authors on set as consultants. >10 seasons of Revelation Space>10 seasons of Honor Harrington>10 seasons of The Culture>5 seasons of The Commonwealth>15 seasons of The Polity
>>214188985yes, but it has other stuff that's good. if you didnt like the first 2 eps it might not be for you tho
>>214189081>Honor Harringtonisn't that mary sue feminist slop?
>>214182538Yes, the whole show is more Blade Runner than Alien
>>214188985>I am sick of that ever since Westworld covered itOkay but imagine the same concept in a show that doesn't suck dick.
>>214186201>the ukranian whore? I lost all interest after I learned she's a hoholinaAmerican retards love Russian propaganda
>>214189213Not at all. She earns everything she has. She fails multiple times, loses body parts. She trains relentlessly and is from a high gravity world + genetic enhancements to tolerate that, so is stronger naturally. By the end of the novels she is larger than life, so it's hard to write her normally, but she was never a mary sue. There is even a book about a very religious planet that protects its women due to certain circumstances with the natural habitat and she perceives it as oppression at first, but sees the truth by the end. The is not a leftist, but his wife sometimes adds shit to his books which ruins the taste, thankfully it's not pervasive.
>>214189415The author is not*
>>214189410kill yourself brainwashed retard
>>214188941>>214189081I'd try to get traction for a 'Blindsight' and 'Echopraxia' show. Get Peter Watts on board with a truck full of cash to work it out into one story for streaming.
>>214189415What fucking writer lets their spouse write their books?If I marry a Dr can I make her give happy people ssris and crossfitters roids?Lawyer wife running a trail amd I stand up in the gallery to yell Objection!
>>214189490Based. The vampire stuff might be over the top, but otherwise would be great. The scene where they see the Scramblers for the first time by looking at them from different lines of sight thus preventing them to hide in the blind spots scared the shit out of me and is one of my favourites in all of fiction. That would translate fantastically to the screen.
>>214189465>man brainwashed by putin calling someone else brainwashedThe irony. Ruzzia is losing btw. Hows Kyiv? Oh right still safe and sound.
>>214189555Last I checked Russia is winning hard, ukraine lost, globohomo lost, fags lost, you lost :)
>>214189576Are you okay, Anon?
>>214189537He gets her input on certain female characters to make it more authentic or something. It's retarded, but it has no real impact on the story. I'm guessing the does it get ahead of any criticism for the lack of gays in his books.
>>214188221true
>>214189555Kiev*
>>214186914He's supposed to be Sam Altman.>>214187156Buy a national government and run the place.
>>214186201retard>>214186289based
>>214189555I'm trans btw
>>214189664>Buy a national government and run the place.Why tho? Surely snorting coke on a yacht is better than concerning yourself with the sewage logistics of some retards?
>>214189668back to /k/ you piece of shit
>>214189724there is no way you're white
>>214189490Blindsight is dope af>>214189081Based Polity appreciator. Asher doesn't get enough credit for that universe.
>>214183730I always loved the '70s-punk world of this franchise. I was really excited to see them show it on screen, but given these writers, I'm now really happy they chickened out and set the whole thing on one sealed island that might as well be a spaceship. The lore they've "added" is so retarded that it's basically non-canon.
Would living on a space station be comfy?
>>214189738Whiter than you. Blue eyes as well.
>>214189770Ok, maybe white with a learning disability
>>214189760Yeah it's Prometheus levels of fucking lore up.
>>214189760based>>214189768extremely comfy I'd say. bonus points for orbiting something cool. you have to be rich tho, poorfags get lousy accommodation and shitty food
>>214189613Ah, feminism as a shield, the ole Rowling.Sell me on blindsight. The synopsis I read was weird
>Seegson's androids were too uncanny valley>Prodigy's androids were too silly>but Weyland-Yutani's androids were JUST right
>>214189810pros>extremely alien aliens, some of the most unique ones ever put on paper, not humans with stuff glued on the foreheads, can't stress this enough>extremely inventive biology>philosophical musings about the nature of consciousness and the human condition>deep space exploration>some lovecraftian moments, but it's not a major point>interesting characters, but not the point of the novel despite what reviewers say>very bleak and tedious atmosphere (dependent on your preference)cons>vampires are real lol>written in a peculiar way that is not always immediately comprehensible, not an "easy" read>all characters are assholes>very bleak and tedious atmosphere (dependent on your preference)t;dr: it's a must read for the ideas it tackles and for the unique aliens, should be in any list that recommends scifi novels, but is a difficult read. I do recommend it even with all of its shortcomings.
poor Kay deserved a better fate
>>214190097>Cailee and Moner in the same movieBased casting director desu
>>214190097we never saw the creature sucking her tit plainly, sad
>>214190116it was great
>>214190049Not just consciousness, but intelligence as compared to consciousness. I'd even say it's got a lot of relevance to Alien Earth. Might go read it again after AE is over. > "Brains are survival engines, not truth detectors. If self-deception promotes fitness, the brain lies. Stops noticing—irrelevant things. Truth never matters."> "Do you want to know what consciousness is for? Do you want to know the only real purpose it serves? Training wheels.">>214189810A lot of people say it's much better when it's read rather than listened to on audiobook. I don't do audiobooks so I wouldn't know.
>>214190049>vampires are real lolThis is so fucking annoying and unnecessary, it was clearly the author's idea of "humor">so we've resurrected an extinct hominid predator with high problem solving ability but low sentience and genetically engineered it as a slave race without considering the ways they're superior to us>what do we call it?>a vampire lol, Homo WhedonicusThey could have called the motherfuckers anything else. The defining attributes of "Vampires" of course being eating meat and autism.They're essentially Kromaggs from Sliders and even that is a marginally less embarrassing name than vampire
>>214190170>I don't do audiobooksNeither do I for scifi. Can't do any kind of fiction as an audiobook. I noticed I can do some history or geopolitics audiobooks while walking/running and it's a nice way to fill the time. Listened to The Accidental Superpower over a week of walking in the woods, was pretty good. I reckon it's because it feels like a podcast more than a book.
>>214187156>Buy massive amounts of credit card and bank stocks.>Dump large portions for $0.01 every time they piss me off.
>>214190246Agreed. Should have named them differently. I did lol at their weakness to right angles which explained the crosses. There is another book that has vampires OUT OF LITERALLY NOWHERE show up at the end and defeat an alien invasion of Earth https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Out_of_the_Dark_(Weber_novel) Deus ex vampirica or something. Silly and unnecessary.

>>214190394Sorry :P
>>214189081>>214189490I mean sure you could adapt the works of others but with that much money you could easily make your own story, even if you're not particularly creative you could afford to be an ideas guy
>>214189701What if I grew up there and want to give back?
>>214190450I doubt anons can come up with better stuff than authors who have been doing it all their lives and have already created interesting universes.
>>214190342Now THIS guy is thinking with his whole ass brain.
>>214190462You can't change a country from the top. If it's a shithole it's the people's fault and that's their potential. Plus, none of them care about you.
>>214190394Where else I'm supposed to get novel recommendations? I mean, you don't ask /tv/ for movies and series, right?
>>214190394
>>214190450Fair. I do have a couple ideas I think might work, as do others I guess, but if I had the freedom to do anything I would still go for Revelation Space rather than something form my mind.
>>214187763To be just pure evil I suppose, I don't remember who made the quote, but I remember reading about the "the rape of Lambert" and about how "curious" he behaves in the end with Ripley. There's a mention somewhere about how he tries to couple with Lambert but by lacking a phallus it just kill her with its tail, which is brutal to even think about it
>>214190503kek
>>214190473maybe they can't... but can you?
>>214190499I dunno I feel like you could do this with Japan or Germany or Thailand pretty well.
>>214190361I always thought a neat premise for an Outer Limits or Twilight Zone would be aliens show up and land on the White House lawn or whatever, and they immediately ask if we want any help taking care of our vampire problem.
>>214190606Heh. Outer Limits was sooo good (the new one). Wish they made more in current year +1
>>214190097>>214190158I want to cum on Moner's tits.
>>214190714EXTREMELY BASED
>>214190605Maybe I', selfish or a sociopath, but I don't care about "my people" or society at large. Fuck them. It's me, my family and some of my friends. Everyone else can burn. If I were a billionaire I wouldn't donate a single cent to some niglets in africa or whatever unless it was for tax purposes.
>>214190097should've made her the protag instead of midlee
What does petting a chest buster feel like
>>214190849salty bags of coins
>>214190849Like petting you're mom's dildo.
>>214190780I mean, thats how its been for most of humanity's lifespan, caring about your tribe only.Highly dense urban spaces and nations are a recent change.
>>214190954Rome had a million people 2000 years ago
>>214191007I'm pretty sure Constantinople and Baghdad surpassed that number during the middle ages, with Paris being closer
>>214187156Open a line of luxury airships
>>214191141Sure but that was more recent.My point is that megalopolis shitholes aren't brand new
>>214191200holy fucking based, I love airships. I would build them for myself even not for public transport and just roll around in them. imagine an alternate timeline where airships are as common as planes.
>>214191265>an alternate timeline where airships are as common as planes.So we could have a hindenberg every few days?Oh the humanity
>>214191295with a mature technology you wouldn't have accident more often than airplane crashes or even less since airships seems infinitely safer.
>>214191301kek never seen that one before, cute pic
>>214191334here's another one.
>>214191443neat, first one is much better with being playful and all that. how have I never seen these? I lurk all alien threads.
Really? REALLY?
does the indian die? im sick of his voice ngl
here's your home, bro
>>214192092there are few things worse than a jeet speaking English with a heavy accent
>>214192111looks comfy af tho
>>214192162Really?
>>214192186yes, I could live there for years as a neet
>>214191216In comparison to how old humanity is, they areFor reference, earliest measurements put humanity(homo sapiens) as around 200 thousand years old
>>214188532He. Looks like such a kid
>>214192227>neetyou'd have to have a job to live there, but what job?also, with 158 colonists the local 'chan would be pretty slow.
>>214192328No job. I'll live off credits my rich uncle left me. They'll gladly have me cuz they need more people. I'll just chill in my room, go to socialize in the common areas between shifts, play games, eat colony slop to my heart's content and watch old movies and shows from earth, etc.
>>214192390based roleplayer you'll have trouble sleeping with the kids playing in the ventilation
>>214192466I'll choose a cabin that's at the end of a module, they won't have an interest going there. Plus, it's fine, it's part of colonial atmosphere.
>>214192519I wonder what colony food is likeAnd what kind of guns the locals owned.
>>214192390>watch old movies and shows from earthAccording to Fireteam Elite those are hard to come by in the colonies, the colonists have to trade for them with spacers because the company keeps a tight leash and only gives them propaganda.
>>214192572In one of the books they mention a kind of protein paste thingy that the food machine turns into whatever dish you want or an approximation of it. Apparently very bland, so you better carry your own spices.Guns? Dunno. Several pistols for the security personnel for sure, maybe half a dozen rifles in storage just in case.
>>214192661I wonder how many security guards they'd even need on a colony that small. Hopefully the galley would serve some decent sloppa. Maybe pizza too.
>>214181719>They're not going to make a brain transfer off a Xenomorph with a completely new never-scanned silicon brainYES THEY FUCKING WILL YOU DUMB FUCKING ASSHOLE, FUCK YOU
>>2141927265 or 6 tops, but all of them have to double up as some other job.
>>214192726>>214192786i'd say maybe a colonial marshal with a deputy, and part-time colonist deputized as needed
>>214192859seems plausible
>>214192786>>214192859The real question is, did they brew their own beer for the bar or import it.
>>214192956surely they had a still with some sort of lichen and shrooms in the back

>>214193145die you nazi supporting piece of shit
>>214190282>while walking/runningHow much do you run, Eko-kun?
>>214193239My route is 10 miles / 16 km total, I walk either all or most of it, I run certain distances depending on how I feel that day. My usual run is 3 miles / 5 km atm. Used to be more, but I'm getting old :P
