could it have worked?

What is with this man and eating Cameron’s sloppy thirds? It’s just weird it almost happened twice.

>>214620024
ridley scott is probably the worst living director.
>>
>>214620096
the duelists, gladiator, black hawk down, and blade runner place him firmly among the greats
he should have stopped while he was ahead, I suppose
>>
>>214620136
His number of shitty movies outweighs the good ones (like Tim Burton's filmography). He's a shitty director.
>>
>>214620294
Absolutely not
>>
>>214620024
It would look less like a tv movie but it would still be a completely unnecessary sequel
>>
>>214620136
>the duelists
this shit is from 50 years ago, he was a competely different person back them
gladiator is also extremely meh
>>
>>214620088
his androids are kino, terminators are boring as fuck
>>
>>214620024
He should have made Terminators to get back at Cameron
>>
>>214620440
Absolutely yes
>over 30 feature films
>only 5 good ones
>>
>>214620088
Hence why it was named "Prometheus" and not "Alien," tard.
>b-b-but what abou-
Alien: Covenant was supposed to be "Prometheus: Paradise Lost," but Fox forced him to name it "Alien" for brand recognition. Then somehow "Paradise Lost" became "Covenant."
>>
>>214620024
He was probably right to turn that down.
I mean
If they handed him the script for the Terminator 3 that we actually got, if the implication is that he turned down directing THAT script
He did the fuckin' right thing there...
>>
>>214620720
I wish we got an actual Prometheus 2, one that the end of 1 kind of teased at. And not whatever the shitshow Covenant was.

Considering how badly he ruined the Alien franchise, it was a good thing.

Knowing Ridely Scott, he would make it so the Terminators hate Humanity because they killed Jesus.

Then he would have made the entire franchise focus on a Gay Michael Fassbender robot.

I really enjoy the seethe the idea that Jesus was an Engineer generates.

>>214620096
In the mainstream big budget arena I'd agree.
>>
>>214620096
>>214620294
I'd say the biggest rival for ensloppification of filmographies is Robert Zemeckis.

Memory holed with alacrity. He must have been really drunk.

>>214620469
i though it looks that way on purpose because it's a kind of campy, verhoeven satire style movie (if you look at the deleted scene of a skinny guy with arnold's voice, it's like outright comedy). they were going for an idiocracy kind of vibe. why they did that is another question

>gladiator
>the duellists
>body of lies

>matchstick men
yep.

Retard you made Alien and Black Hawk Down

And how do they relate to Terminator 3?

A smug irresponsible wizard prone to casting fireballs and his overworked lawyer handling the damage claims is funny
>>
>>214621495
It is indeed funny but how's that related to Ridley Scott?
>>
>>214621412
Alien is Terminator with an Alien. Black Hawk Down is people shooting guns like in The Terminator.

what a faggot this would have been uberkino
we were robbed
would be best in the franchise and would unlock the better timeline

Yup, the director of Alien Covenant, Prometheus, Napoleon and Gladiator 2 was able to keep his dignity.

Was implying he's the wizard here, with his idea that Christ was an Engineer.
There is a truth to it.
I had other memes I could have posted, but the Prometheus/fireball connection was funny to me.
One would hope, unlike Prometheus, Ridley is the sort of wizard who magically gets away with his shenanigans.
>>
>>214620024
I feel like he could do anything. I don't know if he could do everything well, but he pumps out so much shit that I feel like I could see him putting out anything and be unsurprised that he's doing it, regardless of its quality.
>>
>>214620024
How many job offers does Ridley Scott get in a year
The shit is crazy
Specialy when you consider that hs lost his thouch years ago and has not produced anything worth memorising

Prometeus and Covenant where good but unfinished and even in those two there were flaws and ket downs but the Engineers story was so interessting that we forgave him the flaws in these 2 movies if he'd just give us a part 3 but he's too affraid to fuck it up so he keeps on baiting Alien fans for years but does not start working on part 3
>The state of movie making is at it's lowest of low
>>
>>214621689
He was hot off the streak of Gladiator, Hannibal, and Black Hawk Down around that time, and would have been a huge get for them, particularly compared to Jonathan Mostow
>>
>>214620294
Francis Ford Coppola bros...
