>>214608202
Plant bro is going to come up big, you just know it
>>214608202The flies were too easy to catch
>Indian character is the most stereotypical and hateful jeet little scammer they could put on screen Kek how did they get away with it
what the fuck does eye need pi for?
>>214608614Creature is round
The whole series to finally get some plant action ffs
how the fuck did those aliens survive 60 years on a ship?
>>214608202I hate zoomers so fucking much
>the inevitable cliffhanger baiting S2 will be a nest like Aliens
>>214608614To understand quantum physics
>>214608614Same me, you and most people do, which is to say nothing but anyone can be expected to know of it anyway because its such an ubiqutous math constant.Not the best of choices but thats the thought process of Kavalier.
>>214608202my god, how fucking brain dead you have to be to like watching this kind of video
>>214608737>dame sylvia with occelus implanted looking menacingly through containment while kavalier is acting like an obnoxious retard>xeno slowly starting to morph into a queen>morrow fights his way out>brother gets killed and we get punished wendy>synths get mind wiped>kirsch does shady shit
>>214608768we know if because of school, eyes don't have schools, and we know only the first two digits anyway, nobody remembers the others
Stopped watching that garbage since last ep Does anything happen to the eye?(only good character of this shit show)
Why did they assume that the eye knows English and Human algebra? Because he parasited a human host previously?
>>214608202Why/how would the eye know what the word excrement is and that it has 9 letters? So mathematics are universal along with the human english language?
>>214608699It was 60 years of objective time, inside the ship it was only a couple of years.
Who else is a Kirsh chad?Played everybody like a fiddle, the only competent person in the entire show
>>214608796We don't know anything about the planet they got the eye from, they may have some kind of eye society that is near our intelligence
>>214608817boy faggot wants a human host so he can talk to it.
>>214608895Why wouldn't he? He's had plenty of time to learn from the dumb fucks on the ship
>>214608983or the more plausible explanation is it absorbs the intelligence or memories of creatures it latches on to. I don't know why of all the dumb shit that happens in this show this concept somehow confounds the mouth breathers
>>214608983Maybe they're like the trill from star trek and the eye is one half of a symbiote species and the specimen they have is an immature individual vainly looking for its promised host.
>>214608983They could be much more advanced we don't know the circumstances of its capture + it might be learning from it's hosts and it took the engineer on the ship so it likely knows everything that guy did
>>214608895It was observing a scientist on the ship for months, and also had a human host at one point. Once it understood we had a 10 digit numerical system it'd easily recognise Pi
>>214608963him and the eye are carrying this show hard. I couldn't give less of a fuck about all the others. they're all unlikeable.
I want the show to end with Eye bro taking over Boy Wonder/Yutani and running one of the major corporations from the shadowsBut I doubt they have the balls to do that, probably gets killed by xeno
>>214609066It would be funny if they finally squished the eye and it turns into a hundred little eyes that all run away.
>>214608202I have not watched this show and I will not watch it. I am positive Aliens vs. Predator Requiem will be a better take on Aliens on Earth than this show, and yes I say that with full awareness of what Requiem is.
>>214608614Low IQ writer trying to write a high IQ character. Rivals BBC's Sherlock.I hope they don't fuck up Project Hail Mary, it actually shows how to initiate communication with a sentient species.
>>214609145Noah Hawley is a very smart man, so I'm still giving him the beinfit of the doubt for now
>>214609248>Noah Hawley is a very smart manNoah, go to bed, you fucking kike.
>>214609043What about morrow?
In a land of retar...errr, I mean blind people, he who has one eye is king.
>>214609264He's a caveman living in the 21st centuryHe's competent but woefully equipped for the world that passed him by
>>214609264pretty meh so far. he doesn't pass as some badass security enforcer for yutani for me since he's like a fat black dude. it was funny seeing him in tactical gear doing covert operations like some kind of larping air softer. they could have found some actually fit black dude to play him.
The eye was obviously doing the same thing that all those animals that people have claimed could count did. It was reading the expressions of boy wonder and stopping as it detected it had the right number.
>>214609261Nice argument
>>214609145>project Hail MaryCringe reddit pop sci slop kill yourself
>>214609364He is not an enforcer. He is a psychopath on a leash. You don't have to be a big burly dude if your fucking arm can morph into a gun.
>>214608202The worse it gets, the more I like it. The boy genius is more retarded with each new episode, the annoying kids are all dying and our girl is collecting Xenos and teaching them move sets. I hope season 2 adds more Xenos with different colors and abilities. Like one is yellow and electric, another one is blue and shoots icicles and another can fly or dig real fast. Then when she collects them all she can grant any wish like the Dragon Balls.
Fuck>>214609404Meant for>>214609316
>>214609248No he isn't. This show is woefully inept and clearly written by a stupid person. I don't know why anyone would even remotely think this.
>>214609131Based
>>214609446Wendy will 'die' or lose her body but her consciousness will be part of the xeno overhive like some kind of wifi signal and she'll become the Goddess, an entity that all who gets infected by the xeno will see.
>>214609264Actually can't stand his character at this point. Way, way too soulless of a person for no reason. He doesn't seem to have any motivation other than being the goodest goy for WY.
>>214609446and they all have different personalities that come out, like sassy alien or empathetic alien that knows when you're sad and tries to cheer you up. Then there's serious alien who just wishes the corpos would leave them alone, that alien doesn't say much, it's sad
>>214609450Because I've seen other shows he's done
>>214609019Absorbs the intelligence to where? Why would it know how to do that with foreign species? It knowing how to control their limbs instantly is a already a stretch, but it actually understanding something as complex as memories is magnitudes beyond that.And why would it need to do that on its homeworld? Why would it evolve to do that?Don't get me wrong I can see the show going there, but its stupid. And you're stupid for thinking this is somehow smart.Also an engineer would barely know the first 3 digits of pi lmao
>>214609589Nice bait
>>214609552Kys that thing isn't real even in the fucking comics book it's from. Which you're know if you could fucking read you monkey.
>>214609562His daughter is dead I guess it's the only meaning he has left in life to not kill himself
>>214609552Ugly looking thing. Why a serpent?
>>214609131It's sad how you are right.
Mr. Strawberry says THE WRITING SUCKS
>>214608614Apparently it comes from a species that is sentient somehow. I can't even imagine how a planet of those would function or how they would manage to develop that level of intelligence when they are essentially a parasite.
>>214609577I want an angsty teen emo alien who refuses to follow orders but comes back to you crying when it fucks up.
>>214609605Why so angry over a joke, anon? Have a sneakers, no need to take the show and the discussions around it so seriously.
Last episode next week and it feels like there has been 0 build up leading to anything.
>>214609656The show producers heard about the pop sci thing about octopus being super intelligent and mainly being held back by their lifespan being too short to meaningfully impart knowledge and experience to the next gen, so bam! Alien octopus that won't have issues.
>>214609601Huh?
>>214609577>>214609660Sounds like Gremlins, but as a Xenomorph parody. I'm for it.
>>214609692wendy will win
>>214609446I hope the eye kills them all.>>214609248This is literally one of the dumbest shows I have ever watched.
Do you think Wendy can command the aliens to move around furniture too? she could build a whole new lab to produce more synth kids and aliens.
>>214609034>a scientistWatching retards don't give you any information.
>>214609887Maybe she picked up numbers and English from the first human she took over?
>>214609806>This is literally one of the dumbest shows I have ever watched.Agreed, and it really isn't even close. It is profoundly stupid. This might as well be a screenshot from the latest episode.
>>214609979is this real?
>>214610023Yes. It's the entire plot.
>>214609922they never show us any mind reading shit only that it controls the body. Manually moving a lip of the engineer dude for some reason but possibly with touching nerves etc (even thought its conceptually retarded) also even if it read minds it cant be like "i know everything he knows" all the information it gets from reading brain would be a clazy mess of data 99% of which will make zero sense for an alien
>I dont like show because it has brown people
>>214610023Yes
Just gonna be honest here guys.. this is the best addition to Alien since Alien 3.
>>214610074what about brown aliens?
>>214610023Definitely
I'm fine, bros. I'm just tired.
>>214609979
what a fat slab of shit
How do we make aliens scary and menacing again after this show labubufy them?
>>214610187>shot through the heart, and you're to blame
>>214610187This actor is 38 and the actress that plays his wife is 55. Most science fiction aspect of the entire series
Haha! Eyeball so cute & funny. I can't wait to buy his merch.
>>214610189*smooch* :)
>>214610251we don't.it's over.
>>214609403
>>214610251You don't and can't. Horror comes from the unknown and we have seen this monster so many times that it offers no surprises anymore. It's just a cool monster, which is probably why the wisest choice this show made with it is the scenes where it slaughters multiple roomfuls of people in a span of seconds to show that its at least a badass.
>>214610251the cet's outta the beg
>>214610290kawai desu neeeee
>>214610277Not that far fetched really. He's just a mommy gf Chad. Every man should know the pleasures of a much older woman.
>>214609404> He is a psychopath on a leash. You don't have to be a big burly dude if your fucking arm can morph into a gun.that's literally what an enforcer is. a muscular tacticool dude whose arm can turn into a gun or knife is way more intimidating than a fat guy with an arm gun
>>214600608>we have a domesticated pet xeno on earth two years prior to the first Alien movie
>>214609364oh yea?? explain the shit then!!!KEK GOTEM
>>214609594>Absorbs the intelligence to where? it's own nervous system since it fucking attaches itself to the brain.>Why would it know how to do that with foreign species?>It knowing how to control their limbs instantly is a already a stretchwe don't know how the other maginot crew members died. no one is saying it's smart. it's just that there are far far dumber things in this show than this. I would have thought people would be actually fucking smart enough to think it worked like that
>>214609935really wish teng survived so we could have chud representation in the show
>>214608963>Who else is a Kirsh chad?Why does everyone suck this guys dick? His character is a complete nothing burger. Its the end of season and hes literally done nothing of note and we still barely know anything about him. >Played everybody like a fiddle, the only competent person in the entire showNo, him knowing and planning everything to an impossible extent and for mysterious reasons is just bad writing.
>>214608614Better question, how does the eye understand human writing and how does it know to use a decimal system? If kavallier were smart he would have used pascal's triangle.
>>214608312>season over next week>plant did fuck allHoly shit you just made me realize.
>>214610436Only fucking creeps like the aged, I only banged one woman that was older than 30, and got so depressed by her pussy, that I almost killed myself after that. Everybody should try to remain ignorant of the horrors of aging, I don't want to ever experience just how bad someone past her 30s would be. As in even killing every women after they reach a certain age might be good for society to keep on functioning. They are so horrible, you just living your life, and some fucking aged hag wonders into your field of view carelessly, ruining your mood, if not your whole day. Same with fat women, those should also be killed. Hippy version is to just deport these undesirables into a containment zone, far away from the view of the first world.
OG
>>214608963For all the flaws this show has, I think it is the best showcase into the mind of the synthetics yet.When he came into the """secure""" lab and looked at the carnage, he was simply analyzing the situation. No fear. No sadness. No hatred.
>>214610583Surely this has to end with the entire island getting nuked and Yutani planning an expedition back to LV426
>>214610730>Only fucking creeps like the agedwhat a faggot. should have actually killed yourself
>>214610663>Why does everyone suck this guys dick?completely mediocre inoffensive actor the average anon can self insert asit's a common occurrence
>>214610770kavalier is gonna get EYED and killed off causing his company to be dissolved.
>>214608202OCCY WAS TRYING TO WARN HERI WILL NOT ABIDE THIS EYEBALL ASSASSINATION THIS OCULAR DISCRIMINATION
>>214609562What? He has a vendetta against Boy Kavalier and the fact that he sabotaged his mission and killed all his crew. He has nothing else to live for. I think his character makes perfect sense.
>>214610791I don't really care for the opinion of some bald, four eyed creep.
>>214610730Idk man. Ive done it. Its fun. They really, REALLY try to please you. :^) same w fatties. He he
>>214609798wendymore like LAINEY lmaoooo
>>214610663he literally just listened and watched to everything he saw through the childrens since theyre walking cameras and acted accordingly this is like one of the only parts they didnt fuck up
>>214610825He is gonna be like >I'm the only one smart enough to join with itand then he will die like a bitch.
>>214610074That’s part of it, certainly.>>214610070True, though maybe a species used to burrowing into other species’ brains could extract some useful info.
Anyone who purports Eyey as evil gets sent to Gitmo
>>214610251Ignore it. People didn’t stop liking the Star Wars prequels just because the entire franchise got killed by the sheer badness of the sequels.
>>214610290SMALL BRATTY OCELLUS UUUOOOOHHH
>>214610903he'll let the eye take the cougar scientist spiking its intelligence, he gets overconfident with the thing and it'll somehow escape and manipulate someone before eventually managing to use him as a host "blowing his mind"
>>214610791Benjamin Franklin was unfathomably based. The thinking man's coomer, a man far ahead of his time.
Very surprised at how consistently across the internet people are reaching consensus that this show is embarrassingly stupid. I'm having a great time. This is Prometheus all over again. A bunch of 2012 imdb users with Mike Stoklasa brain being too intensely aspergic to understand character-based motivations reviewing the show as a survival horror video game in which the goal is to not die using meta-knowledge like you're all watching a fucking Resident Evil Let's Play. The average criticism of this show is "Nope, stupid, I wouldn't have gone in there. There's a monster behind that door. Should have had the shotgun ready. Zombie apocalypse? No problem. Sawed off shotgun, I'm ready for the zombie apocalypse."Remember how everyone was certain they were smarter than Ridley Scott and Prometheus for years? What's left of that? If this show gets cancelled the ongoing death of popular culture is your fault.
>>214610074actually yes. the jeet and his black guy best friend were/are amongst the worst parts of the show
>>214610972I want eyeball dubai chocolate matcha labubu
>>214610859>I don't really care for the opinion of some bald, four eyed creep.literally one of the greatest men and scientists to ever live in history compared to some nobody faggot complaining on 4chinz. neck yourself you pathetic faggot
>>214610994We aren’t saying the show is stupid because the characters aren’t surviving, Noah; we’re saying it’s stupid because the entire world of the show is logically inconsistent and there are plot holes you could drive a truck through.Also, if a character in your show is retarded, they’re a retarded character. If EVERY character is retarded, you have a retarded writer.
>>214611027Bad eyesight means bad person, no exceptions.
>>214610152You wouldn't get it.
>>214611043>faggot thinks he's going to keep his eyesight when he gets old
>>214611059>this falcon doesn't get badder as they get older
>>214610152Semi-related; these slow fades and weird semitransparent overlays are some of the worst editing I have ever seen in a TV show.
What was it doing in the tree?
>>214610070if they would say that's the rule then that's the ruleif dragons exist, they just do, if he can download knowledge, it just workseven if far fetched that would be a premise to base the writing on, certainly not wild speculation about how an extremely versatile parasitical organism that doesn't have much use for tools much less architecture or engineering, developed geometrical concepts and was expected to have their universal (as in distributed among all the specimens) knowledge with huge degree of accuracy, understanding of alien language, specific local numerations etcthat's a lot less coherentwe will see which one it is
>>214610187>most decent guy in the show>gets fired>wife betrays him>gets betrayed by the jeetRIP arthur
>>214611151Eating nanners
>>214610074it's a symptom not a cause
>>214611151This looks like a Predator porn parody.
>>214611185>tfw they didn't teach Nibs how to properly use a tampon
>>214610251start with a good design WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS SHIT
>>214611042Top rated review on imdb in 2012 core. "logic" "plot holes", "every character is retarded".
>>214611219The rubber suit I can’t this nigga looks like the Gorn in Star Trek.
>>214611228That’s all true of Prometheus, though. It was literally just an HR Giger vehicle and the movie was only reappraised as good because the quality of everything is so shit now that you can go back to Prometheus and be like “oh cool Giger stuff”.
>>214611264But sister, what's actually specifically wrong with it?
This show wouldn't be part of the Alien franchise if it didn't have supposedly competent people making stupid decisions
>>214611289Prometheus? The plot depends on everyone being very stupid and that’s bad writing. It was also controversial to demystify the alien, which is why I personally consider the movie optionally canon.This new show is that without any good production values or interesting things happening. The writing is so painful that we all like the eye because she’s never spoken!
>>214610994Nice try, but that's a bad strawman. The show is stupid because the characters and dialogue are consistently embarrassingly low IQ and the show regularly has jarring tone shifts between serious and borderline slapstick MCU action scenes. The show isn't trying to be weird cringe on purpose, it just is because Noah Hawley is talentless. There are a lot of very amateurish mistakes that keep happening throughout the show too, like I've noticed multiple instances of camera and production crew in the background or in reflections.The main character is also a repeat of Chris Pratt in Jurassic World holding out her hand to tame Xenomorphs like he did with velociraptors. That alone makes this entire show quite dumb.
Christ this is putrid shit
>>214611194>oh bladdu pittu wasn't that bad aftel arr
>>214611194I just noticed but they need so long to react in a tense stand-off. The soldiers looking at Nibs ripping the guy's jaw off need a second to show any reaction
>>214611330Which scenes had reflections of the crew?
>>214611219What? You don't like the human skin tone on the Xenomorph's phallus shaped head?No but seriously, the Xenomorph costumes in this have been genuinely horrendous and the actors movements in them are goofy as fuck.
>>214611322I am surrounded by clones of my 13 year old self. >>214611330I'm smarter than you and I don't find the show embarrassing or low IQ, so maybe something else is wrong (like you being retarded, most likely). I can tell you learned criticism from random soapboxing spastics on the internet because you just make sweeping generalisations and declare these to be violations of inviolable rules which you pulled from your ass just to be violated by the generalisations you just made. This is how you "criticise" when you're a retard with no formed thoughts but you want to say something anyway. Making criticism shaped shells for your emotional responses to what you've seen.>>214611347"If I were there I would have been looking the other way this is badmoviedesign".
great show. looking forwards to the finale
>>214611194>30 soldiers standing on the dock>just stand there and do nothing while she kills people>only person who does anything is the brother and then Wendy gets mad as if she didn't just watch her unhinged friend rip a man's face off like a psychopathRIP Nibs though. That actress is 10/10 peak redhead
>>214611408Your 13 year old self was still idealistic enough to imagine that movies and TV shows were made by competent people and featured things happening that were consistent with each other.
>>214611219>>214611241>>214611398It looks ok. You guys are just so used to CGI modernshit you can't stomach kino anymore.
>>214611482That's 12 billion dollars standing on that boat and the guys being ripped apart aren't even their team they are newbies
>>214611454Is the finale the next ep already?
>>214611490Actually I had yet to properly build a theory of mind for artists or an understanding of the production process of film (or the creative process in general) and believed that blunt mechanical logic was the most important thing in the world because it was the only thing I believed could be measured easily enough between films to call one better than another.
>>214611536Yep
>>214611497>complain that cgi looks fake>complain that practical effects look like shitit's never been about what you use, but how you use it.
>>214611482Can't destroy the merchandice and can't match them in physical strenght. They just didn't really think through their ambush
>>214611482nibs supremacyshe was only taseredwendygo is a psychopath as welljust sicks her pitbull on everyonethe goons were retards tho, antagonizing them the way they did
>>214611408This post gave me secondhand embarrassment
>>214611523>>214611580Then was was the plan to capture them in the first place? Just nothing?
>>214611612She's a machine. That electricity fried her. She's dead. Which she already knew she was by seeing her own grave anyway though.
>>214611580just immobilize the boat and call it a daythey didn't have to fucking make an ambush just wait at the docks and have a calm discussionor taser them immediately instead of angering the superhumans in melee distance
>>214611614I am always on the side of Xenomorphs and Artificial Persons!
>>214610903
>>214611614>KAL-EL NOOOOOO
>>214611634Man, you've got me. Before posting I should have considered the possibility that a cool chill nigger might see me taking myself, or anything else seriously. "Cringe", right.
>>214610187I actually felt really bad for this character. Probably the only good person in the entire show, he saw those stupid kids as his own and the dumb jeet didn't care at all.
>>214611677> seeing her own graveThat was the human girl called ....Uhhhh kelly marine or whatever. They are technically separate people.
>>214611677She's fine, clearly you haven't seen the trailer for the next ep
>>214611668I don't know. She's some super noob from city search and rescue or whatever. Maybe thought that they'll just give up if they show up in numbers
>>214611550Call me overly critical, but I believe that a TV show should be about interesting things happening.
>>214611677if she was dead she'd be shot not tasered
the one thing I liked about this episode was Hermit moving past the graveyard and then seeing Wendy and Nibs behaving like monsters and stopping Nibs from her berserker rage. Maybe he's realizing that Wendy having her sister's memories doesn't mean she's Marcy at all
>>214611680Who says they didn't immobilize the boat?
>>214611162if its just mind reading then he is not "smart".
>>214611677>we’re gonna move your mind from your dying human body to a robot body>ok cool>…>OH MY GOD IS THAT MY DEAD HUMAN BODY I DIDN’T KNOW IT WAS DEAD I’M GOING INSAAAAANE
>>214611680Would have made more sense, but writers wanted to move along the plot with the spergout by both hybrids.
>>214611795I am interested, so your hermeneutic starts to break down here. We can now ask who's a more valuable audience, me or you. If you'd like.
>>214611691His greed sickens me.
>>214611833What happens in this show that you find interesting?
>>214611825If he can absorb and process the information he gets then acts on it then yes he's super fucking smart
>>214611775>>214611801Bullets don't kill synths. Being hit with electricity does though.
>>214608649
>>214611885No but really she's fine, watch the trailer for the next ep
>>214611497They never fucking show it like thins in the open and in the fucking lights! NOTHING stopped them from making some rain and fog here or moving time to evening so its DARK and we see alien as we used to see it. Directors and camera man didnt gave a slightest fuck to how it looked.
>>214611850Strange people, technology, and alien monsters. In general I think the show looks nice, is exciting to watch, and is good at making the fate of everything presented intriguing to follow.I don't know what the fuck you people want. I'm rewatching The X-Files right now and this is better than most of the conspiracy episodes of that show.
>>214611763Yeah, that's the point. The real girl is dead, these "hybrids" are just AI. "Boy Genius" is a fraud grifter. Nibs realized it. The others don't. Wendy really believes she's Marcy, Slightly believes his family is still his family. They are just machines. The brother sees it now too.
>>214608202Oh shit, is it out? How is it?
>>214611952Nibs realized what?
>>214611952How is that a coherent "point"? That's fucking stupid.
>>214611808then don't be angry shouty confrontational and pointing gunsif you did immobilize it and it's not readily apparent, tell them thatthey were only trying to escape because of the boatyou can just tell them there's no reason to stay at the dock and ask them to return to the facilitythe worst that can happen is they will go into the woods for a while at which point you can ask hirsh to talk to them or just tase themthe brother was acting like they can still winyou don't leave that thought to your opponent if you want to avoid fightif you don't want to avoid fight, you fight instead of talking
>>214611983That they were lied to. That they aren't "hybrids", they are just synths with an AI programmed to think they are people.
>>214611952You're right and yet you're not right. They're a new person, but they can still be who they think they are, just not the same being. "Just AI" or "Just machines" doesn't actually mean anything, because with technology, machines and AIs can be more sentient than most people..
>>214611944My issue is that the show COULD be good. The problem is that the tech is inconsistent, the people are badly written, and the monsters just aren’t really scary.This show isn’t bad in CONCEPT, but the evolution.

>>214612014What part of what he said was incoherent?
>>214612080You are chasing down super robots with the minds of children. You KNOW this is the mission.
I kinda feel bad for Hermit, he's probably gonna die next episode and none of it is his fault.
what if the eyeball is from the same planet as the xenomorph and the eyeballs were originally the xenomorph's eyeballs, but they evolved to be two separate species. that's why the eyeball wants to get into the xenomorph's eye socket so badly. it might explain why the xenomorph is missing his eyeballs and why there are walking eyeballs in the first place.
>>214609594>Absorbs the intelligence to where?Its shown while its infected the sheep that it plopped another iris to itself. It could be that each iris is a biological marker and knowledge storage of its previous hosts.Tho what of worth it could get in a sheeps brain I dunno.
>>214612104The actor is kind of shit, but he's the only character that I want to escape alive at this point. He should be the one to destroy Wendy too.
>>214612140It picked up a sheep's eye?
>>214612103And they put the noobs on the ship who would have the best chance of talking hermit down who would then talk Wendy and Nibs down and also ya know who gives a fuck if the newbies die
>>214612104i doubt he dies but i hope he does. i don't like him
>>214612112Bruther I don't know how to tell you this but the xenomorphs have tiny black eyes ...
>>214612104>>214612145He's gonna kill Wendy's pet Xenomorph and she's gonna go into a tard rage about it
>>214612173
You are wrong. We are real children, not AI *alien noises*
>>214612189;( when human escape
>>214611006The black kid is the only synth actor who is actually playing a kid in an adult's body well him and nibs
>>214612173The Xenomorph eyes are inside the carapace. It's translucent.
>>214611825acting on the knowledge is smart by itselfI could do without it but the way they wrote this episode is the worse alternativesome of it was probably trying to push the plot point faster but that's just crutch for faggots, find a better waywe will see
>>214612098The idea that this would *mean* anything. Have a "point". It's a fucking idiotic interpretation that far from providing meaning, renders much of what we have seen pointless.>>214612071Maybe you're just a petulant faggot retard. Have you considered that? I bet you're feeling very superior now because I have done an 'ad hominem' or something, but really ask yourself, what have you actually said that is so much more serious and respectful than my answer to you? Do you not actually deserve this for wasting my time with such dogshit drooling toddler posting?
>>214612212nibs got too autistic too quickly but at least she was adorable in her own way. black "kid" would be fine on his own but the jeet is annoying as shit and they come as a pair. isaac was fine but was killed off to quickly. the other bitch I forget the name of doesn't feel like a kid.
>>214612212I agree. I felt bad for Smee because he obviously cared about Arthur and seems the most naturally childlike in his behavior and thought processes.
>>214611902nekkpill
>genius boy is a fraud and that explains why he acts stupidI take back what I said. You are a damn genius Hawley.
>>214610342to be frank, Project Hail Mary is as reddit as it comes, it's a fun read but the only bearable character in the whole book is Rocky
>>214612272Xeno never skips neck day
>>214611805Wendy having her sister's memories doesn't mean that she is Marcy, but Wendy acting evil doesn't exclude that possibiltiy either. I never believed that the hybrids were the actual continuation of the original kids, but that the original kids died during the memory transfer. But if he believed, how would the "sister" acting differently in a different body, without the original body's hormonal influence change things? The original cancer kid had no chance, or power to be violent, so it wasn't a choice by her not to be violent, but she was harmless, and on contrary the Wendy body is extremely powerful, so now she would have a choice, about something she never had before, at least to this extent. I guess if you want to give some credit to the writers, you could assume that the scorpion scene in the first episode meant that she would not want to kill something potentially dangerous, and you could interpret that either as having humans offed by her pet xenomorph is a big change from that, or that sparing the scorpion, then sparing the xenomorph, could mean continuation of her original values, but also could be that Kirsh's moralfagging was the last memory of her original body, that why is it stronger than the don't hurt humans morality. Hermit is a bitch though, why would he try to run away with his hybrid sister, when she is basicly the best bet of humanity to control/destroy the xenomorphs, and prevent them breaking out into the rest of the planet. Once she was out though, and let one of the creatures loose, ordered it to kill, or at the very least allowed it, than moreally would have to off her too, because she started acting anti-human, and he is still human, and the safety of the human specie comes over memories of a loved one.
>>214608202Never trust an indian is what, i learned from this show.
>>214612272The Predator costume in Prey had the same awful look.
>>214612268Curly, she's trying to act like an adult but the mask slips and we see her just being a child, however smee is the only one who is just a kid the whole time he never acts differently then what he is a child's mind in a adults body
>>214612360>I never believed that the hybrids were the actual continuation of the original kids, but that the original kids died during the memory transfer. did the moment when kids bodies where put in bodybags pushed you into this "theory"? Seriously its retarded but are you watching it on 10x or something?
How can a show this bad have shills? Theres nothing to be gained.
Why is the nigger such a childish cowardly fucker?that's the exact opposite of a nigger behavior, niggers are supposed to be threatening and cunning.and that pajeet kid, holy fucking shit. is the director deliberately trying to make the audience racist against indians? because it's working, that kid is such a whiny stupid piece of shit, and his stupid fucking curry accent only makes me hate him more.
>>214612472It's extremely entertaining I'd say I'm sorry this upsets you but I'm not, Prometheus sucks btw
>>214608963Did Kirsh deliberately let Isaac die?What's Kirsh's goal? Why'd he let Arthur die?so many questions.
>>214612360There was no memory transfer. Just a rudimentary AI scanned their memories and attempted to emulate a copy. They aren't advanced at all, Kavalier scammed those families and killed their kids to sell fish oil.
>>214612472>How can a Disney product have shill?Perhaps we'll never know.
>>214612431to be fair the original predator costume has the same problem about twice as bad
>>214612498The black kid is just a kid, the Jeet is being manipulated by the cyborg, are you stupid?
>>214612157No, it made another of its own little irises.
>>214608202Since when were Xenomorphs so insanely fast and aggressive?One xenomorph killed an entire squad of black ops troops.meanwhile in Aliens, the squad of marines were killing xenomorphs by the truckloads.
*slithers into thread*
>>214612526Actually it's all a dream and Wendy lives in the year 2014 and is normal and she likes Ice Age 3. That's the clue.
>>214612526>there was no memory transfer. just a memory transfer. you're contradicting yourself. you need to roll with the lore, in this case that they successful transplanted the memories into these androids, now the real question is how good these androids are at being human, and as we've seen so far they suck at it.
>>214612522He wants supremacy, total organic death
>>214612529Not even close. In both Prey and this garbage the actors head is clearly in the neck of the costume. OG Predator his head is where it is supposed to be.
>>214612440
>>214612572>Xenomorph is a universal apex predator>Xenomorph is just a grunt only good at zerg rushingWhich one is it, Alien loremasters?
>>214612522Kirsh is secretly a triple agent for Seegson, I bet. He has been referred to as an old model of synth multiple times, as if he is outdated. Makes me think of Alien Isolation's lore about the cheap and outdated synths that company made.
>>214612572Anon it's a tv show. They aren't real.>>214612585They aren't impersonating themselves. They are themselves. There is no generalised "android" will or personality emerging. They're children with weird powerful bodies going through fucked up experiences.
>>214612431I really liked it, and didn't notice that.
>>214612522>Did Kirsh deliberately let Isaac die?It was an accident.>Why'd he let Arthur die?To catch Morrow, Arthur was fired so who cares if he dies.
>>214611219Too matte, needs more slime
>>214612600if alone, master serial killer (clutch or kick).if in group, fuck it we ballin'.
>>214612440smee really needs to be listed alongside maimen and dr pavel
>>214612591Yeah. You really notice it in this show because the Xenomorph head piece is wobbly/floppy and not well supported on top of the actor's head, which is why they are restricted to stupid looking movements with the non-CG version.
>>214612533the nigger and Jeet are much dumber and childish than the other hybrids, yes dumber than even Nibs.
>>214612635He is a dysgenic xeno born from the malnourished lung of a dysgenic malnourished man.
>>214612608>>214612272You didn't notice the cartoonishly oversized necks? Okay.
>>214612636monkeys together weak
>>214612080enough of this shit>ok they could act like a person who values their life and understands that guns are for shooting from a distance, not face to face>but they're soldiers!why can't soldiers not be clinically retardedjust how many hand waves can you do in a single showif every time you need to say OK THOSE ARE NOT AVERAGE PEOPLE THEY ARE FAR BELOW AVERAGE THEY ARE WEARING THE HELMETS SO THEY DON'T BUMP ON THE FURNITURE in your franchise, there's a problem with the people you hire to writethey don't have any leader who is a single deviation below the average?writing is about searching for things that would conceivably happen, given the premiseboy genius finds out he had a retarded idea
>me and hybrid-sis taking the lil xeens for walkies
>>214612697this would be Aliens Earth
>>214612446No, but what I was trying to express that only the memories as data that was transferred, not their consciousness, and the hybrids are just walking chatbots that use those memories as their "personality".
>>214612140I thought that but it had 7 the whole showdidn't add anyhe can just shuffle them around and spread them around circumference
>in-a-space >no-a-body can-a hear-a you WOO HOO
>>214612766>blasts the alien out of the airlock SO LONG GAY BOWSER
You are all retarded and wrong. Those are the real kids in those bodies. Is not some AI pretending. Boy is legit.
>>214612572>One xenomorph killed an entire squad of black ops troops.the virgin corporate black ops troons vs chad UNITED STATES COLONIAL MARINES
This show fucking blows. Who are we supposed to be rooting for? the eyeball? the xenos? because the human/synth characters fucking suck.
>>214612440He probably will now that he watched Arthur die. The overarching theme of this show is the death of innocence.>Nibs goes crazy from seeing the dead cat and eyeball monster>Slightly forced to "grow up and be a man" because Morrow threatened to kill his mom>Wendy's wish of finally being reunited with her brother hasn't lived up to what she hoped and her naive views about Prodigy and Kavalier are proven wrong by the experiments on and mistreatment of the alien creatures>Smee was lied to by his best friend and watched a guy who was kind of like a father figure to them all die as a result>Hermit realizing his sister is truly dead and the company he is fucking evil beyond wordsThe other two, Isaac and the Australian girl, haven't really been explored and one is just simply dead with little screen time. But overall, all of these characters are growing up and leaving Neverland, hence the Peter Pan connections.
>>214612572>the squad of marines were killing xenomorphs by the truckloads.no they weren'tbut yeah they should have killed him in the open like that
>>214612831No one, really. Basically every character is an idiot and a villain. I guess the brother since he's mostly just an innocent bystander whose sister was taken from him. Nobody else qualifies as a hero. I don't get the impression anyone is going to survive this though. I think the island is just going to get nuked in the end or something.
>>214612831Kirsch trust the plan

>>214612835True, it'll be odd seeing smee try and be an adult though, he's the baby of the group
>>214612697>look at this i can control these xenoes with my facebook meta quest 6 VR glasses
>>214612936
>>214612888I don't know the exact timeline but it ain't no way they are going to euthanize the whole Prodigy company.
>>214612673Ya I didn't. I didn't pause the movie or look at behind the scenes..
>>214612815Ok bald man in a suit with a forgettable name.
>>214612815That simply is not true. They are a cheap AI trick and he's just a grifter. All of the clues have been laid out that's full of shit. He's arrogant and obnoxious and condescending to everyone around him but his only goals are money and he never demonstrates that he is actually the smartest person in any room despite loudly claiming to be. We never see him do anything but be dishonest to everyone he meets. He also never does any of the work in either the lab with the aliens or the lab where they do diagnostics and calibration on the synths. Why? Because he has no clue about any of it and needs actual scientists and engineers to figure everything out for him.The show is making no secret that he's functionally an Elon Musk stand in.
>>214612975There are several scenes where you see the side profile and the pred head is clearly an awardly attached appendage. It's very obvious.https://youtu.be/_-2PN7OAqkU?si=npm-oELV9DymtDs_&t=63
>wendy cold bloodedly murders 2 dozen innocent employeeswtf bro bitch is nuts
>>214612968>You will never have hot steaming sex with your hybridsister while the alien is watchingLIFE IS NOT FAIR
>>214613052Watched the video. It's barely noticeable, if you're looking for it, in 1 moment.
>>214613064Wendy sees the Xeno as a person and believes it is owed freedom.
>>214612472>How can a show this bad have shills?
>>214612993Okay Grandma that's nice but I think you've been watching too much infotainment. Not everything related to technology is a corrupt straight white male narcissist scam, even in fiction.This isn't really even about interpretation, we can't discuss this. You're just fucking crazy.
>>214612472Disney. Disney always spams this board with marketers for their unwatchable slop.
preds on eppy 8?
The alien being a dude in a costume makes the scenes kinda cringe desu. I dont think they understand you have to use a combination of CGI plus suit but you cannot have the suit appear too human, you only use the suit in certain action scenarios but the whole "touch the guy in the suit on the head" is just cringe.Idk, the guys who did AVP 1 and AVP 2 understood this, it seems like the people who worked on this show just don't have a good background in special effects or action, Paul Wes Anderson knew what was up.
>>214613071Every time there is a side profile in the movie it is glaring.
https://youtu.be/mvfP-fp6tpc?t=14who this mystery nigga?
>>214612992atom is pretty memorable
>>214612602If they introduce Seegson and the Working Joes in the finale, I will forgive Noah
>>214613194It's clearly the plant.
>>214612529they actually had a giant actor instead of midget to play it and he had his face right behind the predator mask and not in the fucking neck.
>>214613194MOOOLD
>>214612574
>>214612602>He has been referred to as an old model of synth multiple times, as if he is outdated.Why does a trillionaire who owns a fucking continent delegate all of his most vital work to an old, outdated synth anyway
In terms of special effects, action, directing, etc. it goes:Predator > Alien > Aliens > Predator 2 > Prey > AVP >>> power gap >>> Predators > Alien 4 > AVPR > [this slop is here] > Alien 3 (Fincher's first movie)
>>214612993You are wrong. He outplayed Yutani and told her it wasnt about the money. He just wants the research. He is super smart and your theory is way too basic and predictable so is not it. The writing isnt that dumb.
everything about the design is ugly, shit, and purely done for streamlining the productionZERO ambition, least resistance routeunless they added some poor aesthetic choices on purpose
>>214612863>no they weren'tThey killed them so much that only 2 and queen left from whole colony.
>>214613278and why just one>>214612602>He has been referred to as an old model of synth multiple times, as if he is outdated.in romulus the old bot was landfill grade but all it needed was a quick firmware update

>>214613390WWF fights are gayfuck off
>>214613300worst alien design I've ever seen. I liked the ones from Alien 4 and ofc the original with the sleek head and sleek body. This one looks like a dung heap.

>>214613594>>214613605Why were they shooting the billion dollar hybrids with real bullets? Wasn't this whole ambush planned? They had no plan to capture the superstrong hybrids if they resisted?
>>214613625It was the noob team on the boat, pay attention ffs
>>214613625rookie mistake. they thought it was easy way to get dem bonuses
>>214613625because the show is written by millenial/zoomer women who have no understanding of shit
>>214613649>It was the noob team on the boatWhy would you send a "noob team" to safely secure your billion dollar hybrids?
You now remember The Fly
>>214613676they weren't "send". god damn. pay some attention when watching
