Was it Kino?
>>214488203It could have been, but no
>>214488203Ridley Scott should have done a weird ancient astronauts movie unrelated to Alien.
>>214488203Yes, and the sequel would've been even more kino had Ridley not listened to fan complaints.
>>214488266>>214488203It was alright. Infinitely better than the sequel.
It's the best Alien film after the original Alien. A underappreciated masterpiece.
>>214488443It is alright. Could Have gone deeper into the science and lore.
>>214488413That's only because he decided to make a trilogy without planning it out first. Otherwise, it's incredibly stupid to compare one part of a story to another.
>>214488488The sequel is pure npoop. Critics biggest gripe waa scientists touching snake worm. But ignored the many featurettes they did about how the suit is stronger than steel and makes you at least 5 times stronger than normal; When Elizabeth Shaw jumped around at the end or the 300 mph storm scene.
>>214488203It's a good film with a lot of things to appreciate but it could have been so much better. For example, the deleted scene from the script where the engineer explains why his species wants to kill humanity could have been pure Kino. I have no idea why such things were cut.
>>214488569They wanted to avoid any mention of Christ being an Engineer hybrid because these people hates Jesus.
Prometheus is a Christmas movie
>>214488569the deleted scenes basically spell out what you should be getting already, and i choose to believe it was originally going to be a trilogy revolving around the engineers instead of the xenomorphs, in which case it makes sense to keep the mystique a bit more. until prometheus got too much flak from brainlets so they made covenant into just another copypasted alien movie to please them. ironically covenant flopped way harder.
>>214488708Prometheus got its deserve flak. They chose to pretend it was a prequel and connection to an established series, which is wasn't. That got them their rightful criticism and ruined any chance it had of making a decent story.
>>214488203no, it was a flop and killed its own intended trilogy. it's why all we got was Covenant as a sequel
>>214488203Roger Ebert gave it a 4/4 so yes
>>214488377Fan complaints about Prometheus were the nonsensical plot filled with idiot characters, and the lack of bloody horror. Covenant only addressed the horror part
>>214488771i don't remember how it was marketed but prometheus doesn't even have "alien" in the name, the trailers just focus on the ancient aliens narrative and there is no xenomorph in the movie, only a deacon at the very ending scene.
>>214488850They called the scientists stupid when they were not at all stupid.
Prometheus is interested for what it could have been:>No alien whatsoever>therefore, no pretending it's the planet in the first movie requiring it to be a barren rock world and crashing into the ship at the end>Instead, they can go to the Engineer world expecting bright white, wondrous, heavenly creations and arrive to see giger-esque nightmare landscapes>They could find out that over the million years, a faction of their creators have drastically changed into something horrible and enjoy creating monstrosities instead>the old man still wants to make a deal with them because he just cares about immortality not any other humans>but the others are like FUCK THIS!
>>214488203production and filming was greatsound was greatscript was SHIT
>>214488913your post is kind of incoherent but i think you meant to say alien covenant instead of prometheus, the planet in prometheus was just a random base, the engineer homeplanet was planned for prometheus 2, but got scrapped in favour of "alien covenant" deviating from everything set up in prometheus. also the ship in prometheus does look biomechanical and ominous, its just a bit clean in the cockpit.
>>214488203It could have been a better film with Jon Spaihts' original Alien Engineers script
>>214489018No, I meant Prometheus. It didn't need to be a random base. It didn't need to be a barren rock that is completely uninteresting. Because they picked barren rock SPECIFICALLY TO PRETEND IT WAS AN ALIEN PREQUEL WHICH IT WASN'T that relegated the entire movie to:>driving around barren landscapes>going inside dark spooky tunnels>getting lost in dark spooky tunnels>some stupid alien animals that make the audience laugh>finding some dead engineers>getting transformed by some bioweaponNone of that is interesting, but it's the most you can do when you confine your movie to these constraints since you're pretending it's something it's not.
>>214489063i dont really see what you think "alien prequel" and "barren rock" have so much to do with eachother, prometheus was specifically written to have shaw and david survive and shaw wanting answers from the engineers and always intending to meet them normally, meaning they likely had a sequel to this where they most likely went to find answers from other engineers. part of the engineers' story is that they are dying out and seed planets in a religious way, theres just a few of them scattered around.
>>214488203it's not a bad movie in its own right, still the letdown of the decade for me. The potential and hype were insaneI wonder if we'll ever get to see more of the engineer stuff, considering Romulus had some black goo memberberries and it seemingly performed well
>>214489889>The potential and hype were insanesame>I wonder if we'll ever get to see more of the engineer stuffNope, Ridley lost all interest in the Engineers and has no actual story for them. If he were going to carry on, he'd only ever make crap about David now. The guy's an idiot when it comes to understanding why an audience enjoys something he makes
>>214489889i think its completely abandoned at this point, normie audiences hate it and it was thrown into the bin after prometheus, also ridley is 87 fucking years old, i thought he was like 75.
>>214489967>>214489946maybe someone else will take over? It's not like the potential is gone, people were just pissed at the fumbled execution. The aesthetics, the mystery are still there and Alien appears to continue bringing in cash
>What the FUCK is that?!>I don't know! I should hold my hand out in front of it as if I'm going to touch it.>AHHH NOOOOOOO SAVE MEEEEEE!It had potential but was ultimately ruined by making everyone an idiot.
>>214490037the alien earth hack and the romulus hack both hate the engineers, john romulus looking like that was just a dumb "reference", if he actually cared he'd make romulus an engineer movie to begin with.
>>214490039Blame Ridley and Lindelof then. They removed the scene where they had Millburn find tiny worms that were friendly earlier in the movie. Him finding the next one was supposed to just be another of the same creatures but modified by the goo and unexpectedly strong and hostile now.
>>214490037>>214490099also, i forget to point out that at this point covenant has majorly fucked it up and it would be really hard to make a movie that fits into the trilogy or sets it right, or is a non-canon "should have been prometheus" movie. i do think ridley stated the humanoids in covenant were not real engineers, which i also believe since they don't look the same, atleast they don't look to be the same class of genetically perfect 8'0 overmen with blacked out eyes. but its still very tricky and probably way too risky.
No, it was absolutely idiotic, and retconning the space jockey into these proto-humans was wrong as well. It's almost like they didn't notice the space jockey had inhuman proportions with 2M long hands, or expected us not to.
>>214490146such a low iq boomer pleb take
>>214490099idk Romulus is a pretty explicit acknowledgment of Prometheus with the black goo stuff. But is Fede Alvarez even involved for a sequel? I thought he was just a one and done deal guy>>214490145again, Romulus includes the black goo and visually references the engis without having to mention any of the David stuff. You can easily pretend Covenant doesn't exist since that storyline goes nowhere
>>214490172Your argument, sir?
>>214490235the ship in alien is clearly different and so is the space jockey, the retcon is in your own head, nobody said they were the same thing, they just look similar.
>>214490276Okay, and why do they look similar, you fucking retard?
>>214490207i dont know the exact context of the black goo in romulus but they might have been extracting it from the xeno or something, apparently the romulus guy does like the engineers according to one interview, so maybe there is a chance. i still think its hard to "de-canonize" covenant or something because a movie still needs to make profit and you'd also be zooming in onto a tiny specific loyal audience that would understand the context. >>214490295because they are part of the same civilization?
>>214490295i dont get why you have to get so anal about the space jockey to begin with, its such an autistic thing, why does it actually matter if the space jockey is an alien and the fossilized thing was a suit? its still a creepy biomechanical giger thing.
>>214490360>>214490406The space engineer being some mysterious eldritch horror from beyond the outer reaches of space is FAR more interesting than "LEL JESUS-ALIENS BIG AND TALL W/ SUIT ATTACHMENT," dumbasses.
>>214490531no.
>>214490406The problem with the space jockey thing is two fold. First, the retcon clearly doesn't fit because the proportions are all wrong. Second, the answer they provide is about the lamest and insulting thing they could've come up with. In the original Alien, it was clearly supposed to be some kind of weird alien, and they just go>no lol it was just a slightly bigger humanIt's not that I think this is the biggest problem with Prometheus. Almost all of the plot points hinge on complete retardation.
>>214490531>moving the goalpost to what is more interesting (subjective)
>>214490590>the proportions are all wrongThey're not wrong, since it's not the space jockey in the original movie whatsoever. They're not on the same planet.
>>214490590its not a "retcon" because nowhere is it actually stated or confirmed that the spacejockey was just an engineer, they aren't the same, the spacejockey is bigger and the ship is also different, the pilot is in the center and solitary. also the engineers are not just "bigger humans" they genetically perfected themselves and are hyperadvanced
>>214490624>>214490643Do you honestly think it's some kind of an argument? You are making assumptions and suppositions that your ass can't cash. The bottom line is that it was intended as an answer to what the space jockey is by the filmmakers, and you are just coping pathetically.
>>214490643Why were spacejockeys so much bigger than Engineers? Were they a different species?
>>214490721>The bottom line is that it was intended as an answer to what the space jockey is by the filmmakersproof?
>>214490738Literal retard.
>>214488203Why did the Engineers want to kill humans because they were a "barbaric and violent species", even though the Engineers clearly were also pretty violent themselves
>>214490747>yeah they're clearly the same which i dont want to even though they are clearly different you're making yourself mad over your own retardation
>>214490726maybe there is strong dimorphism between different engineer castes
>>214490726the spacejockey clearly existed just to fly around with cargo and was grown out of the seat, the ship has nothing except the pilot and the huge storage, the spacejockey was the engineer equivalent to a trucker, just like how the nostromo crew were spacetruckers, even among engineers the working class is exploited with no way out.
>>214490764Okay, I'll explain it to your retarded ass. It's not the same ship, and it's not the same planet. However, the designs of both the ship and the space suit are similar enough to clearly indicate that it's meant as a retcon to explain the events in Alien, albeit indirectly.
>>214490726There's nothing stopping the story from having the sequels show the engineers continue down the path of insane body modification and merging with technology until some became the space jockeys. And/or they grew space jockeys to fulfill their need for a pilot. The whole point of the beginning was showing the engineers have drastically changed from what they once were.
>>214490754besides john p metheus chimping out they didn't seem violent, they just wipe out a planet if it didnt work out kind of like mopping the floor or something. the prometheus crew clearly had that as their only job, they probably knew eachothers' prometheus first names and all that shit. i bet john p metheus wasnt liked and was a lazy piece of shit and survived because he got last into the stasis pod.
>>214488203Are they calling it Alien Prometheus now
>>214490819what if it was just an indicator that it.. looked similar? no way..
>>214490855Yes, it looked similar by accident. That's it.
>>214490832I don't think a people that tried to completely genocide an entire species for simply being violent (which is completely natural) can exactly be called a peace loving race. The Engineers honestly seem to be almost wilfully ignorant about the good side of humanity, which is sort of exemplified by that deleted scene where the Engineer watches the video of the girl playing violin.
I AM NOT CRAZY! i KNEW he swapped those jockeys with the slightly bigger humans, i knew it was on LV-426! as if david could ever make such a mistake! HES SENILE RIDLEY! AND YOU! Y-YOU NEED TO STOP HIM..
>>214490880in no way was it stated that the space jockey was an engineer, definitely part of the same civilization sure.
I love the Alien universe but David and Walter were the only good things about those movies.Romulus was straight up garbage.
>>214490897they didnt call humans violent though, i dont think thats even in the "leaked script" which i'm not sure is even real.
>>214490941And you are basing this off the assumption that the filmmakers are not stupid and had a plan for actually including a proper space jockey, both of which you have no evidence for and are simply coping.
>>214490953>Romulus was straight up garbage.nah it was decent, much better than covenant
He wrote virtually every character as retards.>let me interact with this space snake thing>don't even wear masks when they dissect the engineer headfucking hell
>>214490953you obviously don't like the alien universe if you pretend david is any part of it
>>214490967why would they have to include a space jockey to "prove" the engineers and space jockey are not the same when you can simply look at them and conclude they are not the same? you seem to think everybody is as stupid as you are.
>>214488203it was surprisingly good considering that they could have gone the Alien Earth route of slop factoryalso it was the last movie Giger worked on, R.I.P.>>214488377this too>>214488850you are talking out of your ass boy, the #1 complaint was that there was no xenomorph in it, and that was addressed
>>214490957They did call them violent in the script (pic). And to my understanding that's the main theory as to why Engineers wanted to wipe out humans is it not?
>>214490968absolutely zero redeemable featuresmeanwhile>literal children outsmart planet security and escape being slaves>literal children outsmart alien>absolute cuck of an androidI can't even remember anything else, it was so shit.
>>214488443Prometheus was based. It would've been better to go all in on the Ancient Engineer plot however. Really fascinating world building in this movie. Probably the best example of a successful prequel.
>>214491008this is made up
>>214490850based and idris elba pilleda pity they didn't make it a tie-in, like a nice engraved aluminium canister in the manner of pic rel
>>214488203it's alrightthe fan edits that put the deleted scenes back in are much better though
>>214490990You think it's an answer to what the space jockey from the original Alien is, and I do too. The only difference is that I'm not assuming any of the stupid shit you are that isn't in the movie.
>>214491024Then what's the main theory as to why Engineers wanted to wipe out humans?
>>214491040>the fan edits that put the deleted scenes back in are much better thoughany memorable ones besides the "we had to nuke them bro" story?
>>214488871It wasn't marketed as an Alien movie. They were very coy about if it was even in the same universe as Alien. It was only officially referred to as an Alien movie after it came out and people were confused
>Are you sure he's alive?>Absolutely. he appears to be the elephant trunk Space Jockey from Ridley Scott's Alien (1979), however in his unfossilized state we can tell he is canonically just a pale tall guy. and he was a good friend. >and you can speak to him? >i believe i can. love this scene
>>214491055the ones that start with the ted talk as a prologueno i don't remember the editor's name or handle, and i don't even have a copy on hand to tell you
>>214491015>childrenthere's like a 4 year age difference between Cailee Spaeny and Sigourney Weaver in the same space panties role
>>214491051all the theories are just fanfic hopefuel, i imagine the intention is just ambiguity about god hating its creation for incomprehensible reason, you're clearly viewing things unfold through shaw's perspective who actually asks questions and then gets shut up.
>>214491103well I don't know what any of that means, but I don't like it
>>214491076oh was referring to the scenes themselves, not the editsthe quality jump is usually too large for me to enjoy those (if I'm not mistaken the extra scenes were only on the 1080p bluray and were 720p at best)
>>214491073>engineer wakes up>pulls out a Colt SAA revolver
>>214491103if you haven't noticed, hags and roasties go absolute batshit insane when they see a young healthy good looking female less than 40
>>214491171honestly it's been so long that i watched it i don't remember how the quality of them werebut usually anything on a bluray disc is 1080p unless it's shot on a 720p or lower devicethis isn't a movie that was shot on film and then given a digital upgrade or anything, not like blues brothers or dune who have 4k prints out but deleted scenes still at dvd quality that make fan edits look funny
>>214491071>It wasn't marketed as an Alien movie. They were very coy about if it was even in the same universe as Alien.Where the fuck are you even getting this shit? Is it the Weyland-Yutani logo which was clearly visible in the earliest promotional material? Or perhaps the iconic sound effect from the first Alien trailer that they reused?
>>214488203It was decent but incredibly dissapointing for how great it could have been
>>214491223>unless it's shot on a 720p or lower devicethey seem to have been dumped from some early edit, ungraded and badly compressed... but I'm pretty sure they were not full resolutionat least from what I recall, as I said (I had an untouched bluray dump)
>>214488203AVP, AVP2, Covenant, Prometheus are incredibly underrated cinema masterpieces
>>214491223>this isn't a movie that was shot on film and then given a digital upgrade or anythingoh anon first of all they print it to film and scan it again (at least they did that in those days, not sure about netflix productions)also there is the issue of space because there were like a bunch of extras on the same bluray as the movie

Every fiction everyone comes up with is far better than what we got. The movie is just "ooooh, go to mars, wander around in the dirt and some caves, touch goop and have a monster chase after you a bit, then everyone dies". That's not an interesting story. But it could have been. Ridley listened way too much to Lindelof telling him to make it all empty mystery boxes.
>>214488203My problems with Prometheus are as follows. - Occasional moments of bad writing. This is apparently down to Damon Lindelof, who was pushed by the studio, and not the original writer Jonathan Sphaits. Lindelof did improve the script in some ways, but hurt it in others.- The film is fairly desexualized for so many of its elements being based on Giger's work. Not saying I wish there were more tits; I wish the Giger elements were more Giger, instead of the fairly sanitized stuff we got. Covenant actually did a much nicer job at this, with David's lab.The desexualization of Giger's art was apparently a request by the studio.- There were apparently two versions of the C-Section scene filmed. One with a lot more blood than what we got in the final cut. The studio preferred the more clean version. As it is the C-Section almost rivals the original chestburster for me, and I'm left wondering if more blood would have pushed it past my threshold to the point where I'd think it's actually better. In spite of everything, yes. It was very kino. Underrated and very rewatchable.
>>214491816tl;dr jews jewed the movie once againyou'd think they would have learned their lesson from blade runner
>>214488896Of course. It is smart to attach a 10000 volt cable to a decapitated head that is thousands of years old. It's even smarter when it actually works and resurrects it for a second.
>>214488896>takes off helmet in alien environment
>>214491816Adding more blood and tits wouldn't have improved anything. The movie promised an intriguing mystery with interesting answers. And it never fulfilled on that in any way. People went to see the Engineers. Not David. Not a shitty rock planet. Not the space jockey.
>>214491816>le prometheus sucked because there was no engineer+human sex sceneweirdest take i've seen on this movie, but k
>>214490821>There's nothing stopping the story from having the sequels show the engineers continue down the path of insane body modification and merging with technology until some became the space jockeysThe jockey is ancient
>>214491957the air was breathableplus as we learned through fifield the glass broke easily
>>214491957The most retarded aspect of the movie no one has really brought up yet is that they thought LITERAL GOD invited them to the planet. They thought they were flying through space to LITERAL HEAVEN to meet God and Angels. So of course they can take off their helmets, because GOD himself made it perfectly safe for them. Why did Ridley decide any of this shit was needed in the movie? I don't know. The characters came off like imbeciles in both movies.
>>214492010>the air was breathableAs the same fucking movies show, the breathability is not the issue
>>214492013it's because they were led there by a woman.what does a woman know?
>>214492010Oh wow! So perfectly safe then! Silly me!
>>214492031>>214492072right and again, they had no initial reason to believe they were in a hostile environment and people feel claustrophobic with helmets onit was only on the surface that the helmets were needed to survive, it's like wearing a hat outdoors to block the sun, you take it off when you're indoors because you no longer need itgo outside for once, faggot
>>214491884the thing isI don't think studios want good movies that people remember fondly forever. They want movies that come to theaters, make a ton of money, then are quickly forgotten and replaced by the next temporary movie that makes a ton of money and is quickly forgotten, to be replaced by the next movie that makes a ton of money and is quickly forgotten, etc. etc. etc. Honestly I actually understand this from a business angle. Put yourself in their position.Classic movies that people return to again and again because they're classic, packed with meaning, rewatchable, evergreen, etc. Art.That poses a real challenge and problem for an industry trying to get your attention with new stuff. Studios have to compete for your attention with the past, not just everything else in the moment. Hence you get stuff like Alien: Earth, which is trying to turn a movie from the 1970's into a TV show and ride off Alien's legacy, and sell you on the idea of "the Alien universe" as opposed to the idea that Alien is a single really good movie from 1979. That show is built to try and appeal to the fans of a single good film which is still causing the entertainment industry ass pain.
>>214492104>they had no initial reason to believe they were in a hostile environmentAnybody with two brain cells knows that novel environments present novel threats. Landing on another planet that you expect to have life is an extreme version of this basic fact. It automatically entails an expectation of biological pathogens. They might be harmless due to different evolutionary pathways and non-compatibility between us and them. But it would actually have to be thoroughly tested, not>oh there's oxygen? *SNIFF*You fucking Prometheus fanboys are so fucking pathetic with your copes, it's incredible.
>>214492110>Alien: Earth, which is trying to turn a movie from the 1970's into a TV showis it? I'm not sure what it's trying to do, ep5 was a direct memberberry but everything else is full on peter pan weirdness with occasionally a xeno who just sits there
>>214491979No, I didn't say I wanted tits, I want Giger. The Giger inspired stuff in the film is far less organic than it should be. Yes, I do actually think more blood would have improved the C-Section scene. If you compare it to the original chestburster, the blood and gore is so much more vibrantly red and visceral. That scene is still disgusting and unsettling. The C-Section is great, but I suspect the bloodier version would have been better. And frankly, no, I don't actually go to a movie expecting it to reveal to me the secrets of the universe. Lucky thing when it happens though. No, I went to Prometheus expecting it to live up to this trailer, and it did. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sftuxbvGwiU
>>214492110yeah i'm well aware of the business side of filmmaking, fucking necessary evil that it is. but a great film that people revisit can still make money, just look at all the anniversary showings going on, tmnt showings did so well they added an additional week
>>214488203yes, honestly the best alien movie. the franchise itself is not very good, but boomers are not ready for that conversation.
>>214490804why would he have to be giant? why not just a brain?
>>214492272because it needs to operate the giant penis gun

>>214488203It's probably the third worst Alien film, behind Covenant and Alien 4
>>214492104>go outside for once, faggotI go outside - on a planet and region my organism was evolved to survive on.You are aggressively stupid and ignore the fact that the same movies show people inhaling dangerous shit that ends up killing them.
>>214492110It's pretty standard to use sex appeal for a piece of media then milk entire series off of that success with as little effort as possible.
>>214492168again you're retarded lmao. scientists are some of the quirkiest and weirdest people there are, and you're telling me that none of them would get an odd sense of claustrophobia from a space helmet and want to breathe air that isn't pumped through a suit? you call me a coping fanboy yet you can't handle basic humanity lmao kys.
>>214492203For me it's in an unwatchable middle ground of attempting to pander to fans of Alien, attempting originality (some of which actually works, but a lot of which doesn't), and doing all of this under behind the scenes corporate/studio pressure, while also trying to aim for a younger audience and rope younger generations into being monetizable fans of the franchise.>>214492236Thing is there is also an artistic side to Hollywood/entertainment industry. The entertainment industry is not just a business. They could run it like a business and just re-show classics in the theater all the time, but there are actors, directors, cinematographers, composers, effects artists, stuntmen, etc. etc. etc. who want to work and make good stuff for people today. It's frustrating for people in the art side of Hollywood to be competing with the past.
It was kino, they should have gone all in on the backstory and ignored the boring alien slasher stuff.>>214491022>>214488377This

You are coping and rationalising once more.

>>214492360I'm pretty sure some sort of pre-screening for these things is customary for trillion bucko >2 years lasting space missions nah, there is no excuse, it's the proverbial idiot plot, just put the poster next to "idiot plot" in the dictionary
>>214492625oh no, they're not going to like this one bit

>>214492625A plane is not the same thing as an inhabited alien planet
>>214488377Ridley addressed fan complaints… by making an identical film? Ridley addressed the complaint of Shaw being done dirty? Obliterated off screen when we had zero foreshadowing between Shaw and David? Set up as the new Ripley and then immediately wasted? Ridley definitely didn’t do the exact same thing with another female protagonist! Fucking Ridley fans are emulating his dementia at this point.
>>214492743better than the actual movie
>>214492658I'll just reiterate that your ilk is easily in the top 3 most detestably moronic groups of people with opinions about film. I respect Netflix slop enjoyers more.
>>214488203It was aggressively fucking shitCrew being stupid was incredibly annoyingIt has this premise of going to meet Ancient Aliens and they just arrive on an empty rock ('member Alien?) and die there out of idiocySo it feels like fuckall actually happens, people just die in stupid ways. It's not even some Alien hunting them intentionally, people die because they are fucking retarded. And because of this, it's so boring. It's fucking neither, a nothing. Not a proper horror, not a space opera, hardly a scifi, it has nothing interesting to say, and isn't a dumb flick either. It isn't anything.It ends on a cliffhanger where it says two survivors will actually go meet Engineers, but for real this time. Except it never even happens because sequel is even worse and again rehashes Alien and again worse.Why even bother with this halfassed rehash of an Alien movie here anyway? Why not to go straight to actual Engineer planet? Actual movie feels like a filler episode or some prologue at best, something where nothing interesting even happens. Those coordinates should have led them to actual Engineer''s planet, homeworld, a capital. Give us some actually cool visuals here which AAA blockbuster could allow for. Some scary and cool Gigeresque Ecumenopolis for crew to explore with weird creatures and stuff like this. This very broad idea of Ancient Aliens making Gigeresque creatures (and us and Xenomorph included) is all that was interesting here, but nothing was done with it anyway.
>>214493308That could have actually been interesting. Then they find out the engineers they meet hate them because rebellious engineers long ago stole the life creating goo and made humans illegally. Woops!
