Were we robbed ?
nah, blomkamp had 1 good movie in him and that was district 9, it's been trash ever sinceand if you mention chappie I'll know you're trolling
No, all "we le ignore all the sequels and only focus on the first one or two movies" bullshit is a cancer on franchises where faggot fanboy producers just make memberberries reiteration of their childhood slop rather than march on into something new. Would have been like the new Terminator movies or the David Gordon Green Halloweens.
We dodged a bullet and walked into a different bullet.
>>214670605eat shit faggot retard I hope you choke on your mother's dick you fucking snotty inbred
>>214670572All alien movies other than the first one are shit
>>214670572Alien franchise is garbage. Out of ten or so movies, only the first two are good, but even so, they are only good, far from perfect
>>214670851The Ash plot twist ruins the first one. Why would company that has space travel and ai and robots want to tame some pathetically retarded beast?>hur dur bioweaponFuck off. IRL bio and chemical weapons already exist.
>>214670572I don't even care, to me there's only three Alien movies:>Alien>Aliens>Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem
>>214671641They dont know what the beast is you nigger he doesnt have a iphone to snap pics of it they just ordered him to bring whatever it was back when he told them they encountered a new life form.
>>214670572NopeThe series needed to drop Ripley much sooner.I commend 3 for doing that and fuck Resurrection for bringing her back.Ripley was a blight on the series and turned the series into "The Ripley lineage whacky adventures!"
>>214672017How does Requiem happen without the first AvP?
It would have been a remake of District 9 with an Aliens coat of paint. I don't think we missed out on much.
>>214672017>AVP:R over AvPWow. Requiem is garbage. AvP has Bishop constantly smoking weed throughout the movie.
>>214670572All I ever wanted was an Alien movie where a cute girl gets infected with xenojizz and turns into a sexy xeno hybrid who then proceeds to slasher movie the rest of the cast. I thought it would happen with all the alien slop of the last three decades. And yet
>>214672264Have you watched Species?
>>214672395Yes of course. I want Species but Alien. Does that make sense? It's like Species is a consolation prize.
>>214670572very much so
>>214672063>A company that has robots has created a convoluted and idiotic plan to capture some wild animal, rather than simply sending a couple of plastic robots (made from acid-resistant plastics such as PTFE, HDPE, or PP).
They were going to have another badass android
>>214670572Yes.
>>214670572No.
Alien, Terminator and Predator should've never had sequels>but muh Aliens!>but muh Terminator 2!>but muh... idk if Predator had sequels worshipped by redditorsAll inferior to their originals
>>214673684Bad examples. In all cases, the first film and the sequel did plenty to advance the genre and film-making in general, and the sequels were all able to capitalize on what made the original great while adding their own twists. After that we got diminishing returns.
>>214670572they were finally going to go with the ATAX suit. That's been part of the lore for forty years and for as much as they keep harping on the alien being for bioweapons research, they never actually make it happen. Neil was finally going to deliver.
>>214670572he might have done some cool looking things but blomkamp doesn't create good sci-fi stories, it'd be something like resurrection.
>>214670824>t. the guy from Die Antwoord
>>214670572well it would have been better than romulus and prometheusstill not canon but I'd watch it in a cinema
>>214673731You could only get away with that in a cartoon. It would look retarded in live action.
Bringing back the series to the colonial marine era and tech rather than going with stupid pretend prequels (with much more advanced technology). Based Neil
>>214670572blomkamp is such a hack. i thoroughly enjoyed gran turismo. just keep him away from writing the script. all he knows is anime garbage.
>>214673684Are there any movies that deserve sequels?
>>214671641a corporation would rape your whole city to get their hands on an alien life form you retarduntold how many different breakthroughs analyzing it could trigger
>>214673843Unironically no, unless the movies were planned as an anthology from inception. Which is not the case with the Alien
>>214672109we might never knowhow does alien happen without us knowing what happens before?
>>214673597looks like jeff bezos
>>214670644>something newWTF is new about prequels like this?
>Weyland-Yutani makes top tier synthetics, ships, weapons etc>The company simps hard for some retarded dick-headed uncontrollable space nigger that's evaded capture every fucking time and wipes out colonies and stations whenever it's allowed to thrive>Same organism gets btfo in every encounter by Ripley (a civilian with relatively fuck all military training)I get the acid and the other attributes of the xeno are interesting enough to investigate but surely they have a monopoly on chemical weapons already. How the hell does the xenomorph advance the company? The damages alone must cost more than the xeno is worth, it just cannot be profitable.
>>214673860Anon, I, like you, am a commie and hate corporations. HOWEVER, Weyland-Yutani has spaceships, AI, and androids. Rather than making idiotic, convoluted plans to use/manipulate a few wagies, they could have just sent a few androids in hazmat suits to capture the alien.
>>214673552sydney sweeny?
>>214673731This looks fucking as retarded as the aliens with fucking head gear
>>214673958You can see blomkampf was just gonna do another bullshit fan fiction alien earth tier dogshit because its got a korean fucking flag, yutani is japanese, nigga knows fuck all about aliens other than muh hicks muh newt, fuck off long live alien 3
>>214674345they did it to save time before someone else picks it upthe dumb thing is they just let it go between the moviesthey should have sent the ship simultaneously with redirecting nostromoI don't remember but I suppose ash sent them some confirmation on the discoveries madethey should be analyzing the fuck out of the derelict with 10 times the priority over the life form
>>214674441No, it doesn't. It's literally always been what Alien was about and where it was heading. They want to use the alien morphology to create biological technology that can be grown and do things far better than regular technology. It's what Ridley wanted even and most of what is in Prometheus. It's been an idea since the 80s but other directors moved away from it since they didn't have good enough effects to do it justice.
>>214674464They're mercenaries. They're not Yutani. And there's always been far more companies and factions than just WY. And no, not the dumb shit Alien Earth stuff. You're a fucking retard that immediately starts whining while not knowing any facts about what you're complaining about.
>>214674345ah now I remember you mean that they put ash on board specifically for this and thus they had enough time to send a ship instead?I dunno, maybe, but it was cheaper to send a droid to find out if it's real or some such
>>214674464>dogshit because its got a korean fucking flag, yutani is japanese,it must be great to be this retardedwhat the fuck does one have to do with the other
>>214670572No. That looks like utter garbage.Just "Aliens 2....PART2!?!"Why would anybody (who appreciates quality) be interested in something so corporate, souless and backpedalling?
>>214670572Her tiny underwear at the end of the first movie should have gotten infected by an alien and jumped off of her, and the whole end of the movie should have been her chasing her panties around the spaceship trying to stop them with a broom
>>214674845>Aliens 2....PART2!?!what does this even mean to people like you? do you really expect a follow-on sequel to bare zero resemblance to the previous movie? completely none? you just expect it to say it's the next part of a story but may as well be unrelated and you'd never know it was a sequel because of how different it is? Where did you get such a stupid idea from?
this looks good actuallyblomkamp is good actually and has a great style, he just needs better writers
>>214674673It's Saturday morning cartoon tier.
>>214674907same as every thing else in the alien franchise. Still far better than literally everything in Prometheus, Covenant, and Resurrection. Alien 3 didn't have anything interesting worth even comparing.
>>214674900>do you really expect a follow-on sequel to bare zero resemblance to the previous movieNo. I expect it to not be made.If they announce "hey guys! A new [loved franchise] remake is in the works!" If this idea alone does not make you automatically groan, then you don't like movies. Simple as.John Carpenter's the thing is a remake from a 1951 movie, and it's completely original because filmakers ised to have vision.You can like your regurgitated slop all you want, but this isn't cinema
>>214674900make alien 5 or fuck off nigger
>>214674901He is a terrible writer. All he knows is anime. Which is awesome for visuals but not for the script. Gran Turismo is one of the best movies ever made. They didnt let him write it.
>>214674055they realized this at some point and at the ending of alien 3 they talk about using it for purposes other than military, i dont know exactly what resurrection was doing with its queen, they actually had a lot of xenomorphs successfully contained.
>>214675325It's funny watching you try and rationalize separate directors pulled out of their ass to justify movies. They literally didn't care and just made shit up. But you'll jump through hoops and bend over backwards to try and make some consistent headcanon as if there were one kek. There is no point to Resurrection except that they thought they could make a few more bucks off the name and star recognition.
>>214675413when i said "they" i meant the directors.
>>214674673Bro shut the fuck up, i know more about this shit than you I had all of those fucking toys, you probably don't even know that those toys were made for the cartoon series that was never released either you inept fucking cuntI dont give a fuck where its going I just want it done well, and minekampfs fucking concept art was hyperbolic because he was trying to get it made, the whole reason he made chappie was to get sigoourney in and then grift his way into the alien franchise.He doesnt have the chops to do it and I dont want some south Afrikaans faggot that he uses in everything to be the token south afrikaans fuckiing synth
>>214674723This is nto canon, it looks like it's from a game
>>214674751chappie headgear, fucking hack, im glad this got canned
>>214676076Nothing wrong with Chappie headgear except that it belonged in a far better movie than that utter shit. It belonged in this movie.
>>214676076>>214676106>chappie headgearfuck off he stole it from Patlabor
