Instead of a story about the xenomorph, we get a story about a mary sue android.
>>
>>220903832
the thing i liked the most was Wendy being a xenomorph whisper that was cool and kinda creepy
I didn't like now Disney tried to humanise the fucking xenomorphs
>they're honest!
wtf lol fuck off.

Also the eyeball alien being a good alien was hilarious

I remember everyone here recognizing how retarded the characters behaved every week. Even if you tried to find some sort of convoluted reason why the writer might have thought they should behave that way, someone else did something even stupider in the next episode. But most of it was really just holding out to see whose body Octopeye would get into, and we all know how that turned out.

She was cute but it bothered me that they made a big deal of not following the prequels but were repeatedly stealing things from them. Hawley is a lazy ripoff artist
>>
For all the absolute shit this series introduced, I still think the Peter Pan shit is somehow most insulting. Infantile, makes no internal sense (because of lost "boys") and adds nothing to the story except for viewer's embarrassment.
>>
>>220903881
All the complaints about people finding characters in Prometheus and Covenant stupid and then people praised this, even though the characters in the show were so dense and unprofessional it was like they were in a spoof. The crew of the Red Dwarf act more sensibly than the crew in that flashback episode. Irritating to watch
>>
>>220903893
yeah shoehorning disney references was obnoxious
>>
To go on, i like Wendy because the idea they created something unintended, a xenomorph controller, then lose control of her is good Alien plot material. Wendy was the real monster
>>
>>220903907
>good Alien plot material
no and kys
>>
>>220903914
yes and no, life myself, im interested in new things not rehashing plotlines

Having a creepy Kerrigan from Starcraft in Alien is cool. Besides there is a similar plotline in the Alien comics and books.
>>
>>220903226
it is most certainly one of the most idiotic stories out there
>>
Can’t believe we finally got Olyphant in Alien and it was this shite
>>
the only dumb thing was why did they send soldiers with guns to the ship. They didn't explain that at all.
>>
>>220903955
There were other dumb things. Eating and drinking in a lab that has alien creatures in it. Putting a dangerous alien in an easily broken glass container and putting it up on a shelf. It was a very lazily written show
>>
I liked it a lot and will continue to like it. Never listen to /tv/.
>>
>>220903970
all the aliens being sociopathic geniuses is funny.

I was fucking flabbergasted that they introduce this possessor eye monster in the first episode and it NEVER possesses the alien. I guess they're saving it for series 2?
>>
Every single character in the show is retarded. After a certain point I started hoping that the Black cyborg guy would just kill everyone, and it was looking like he actually might, but then turned into a big retard too at the end.

There was a shitpost predicting that the finale would have the Eyeball alien jump into a Synth and call itself Ripley, then get sent on a secret mission that ties Alien Earth into the first movie. The show was so fucking retarded that by the final episode I believed such a thing could be possible.
>>
>>220903973
Based retard

>>220904109
the implication is the eye parasite only tries to insert itself in creatures with eyes. As sort of camouflage. The xeno has no eyes, which is a further implication that the xeno may have been designed to be immune to such a parasite.

The thing thats really interesting about the eye is after it has found a suitable host it acts in a moral way trying to save people. So its a dangerous threat until its found a host then it acts friendly, which is a weird direction for a scifi horror alien

I WAS SEETHING AND FUMING WITH RAGE EVERY TIME THE CHICK STARTED DOING THE MOUTH THING TO MAKE THE ALIEN NOISES.

IT WAS THE SINGLE MOST MOTHERFUCKING ANNOYING THING I HAVE EVER SEEN ON TV.

FOR FUCKS SAKE.

I WOULD RATHER LISTEN TO JIM CARREY DO THE MOST ANNOYING SOUND IN THE WORLD FOR 10 HOURS THAN LISTEN TO THAT FUCKING BITCH DO THE ALIEN CLICKING SOUNDS FOR 10 SECONDS.

AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

It's bad by early Alien film standards but we are nearly 50 years into the franchise. The IP is going to get watered down. But as a fan of some of these long running sci-fi franchises I still like getting new content set in the IP's world.
>>
They baited us with Alien and then switched it out for a poorly articulated, badly executed story about dumb robots. The plot doesn't need to have aliens at all.
>>
>>220903226
>Is it really that bad?
Yes, I stopped at the first episode.
Also look at that blurry background. All movies that do this are shit until proven otherwise.

>>220905079
Romulus was great. I liked Wendy but the show was a let down.
>>
>>220905079
i liked Romulus but thought Alien Earth was better.

>>220905092
the Alien series has had androids as a central theme for the entire series, they are a metaphor for the aliens themselves being the perfect organisms artificially created and so are the androids.
>>
>>220903226
Normal horror
>don’t do that you retard you’ll die!
Alien:Earth
>please do that your retard so that I can laugh at your death.
This pretty much sums up what I thought. The show peaked when that one niggerbot went into the alien holding cell full of metal eating bats.

Me and gf thought it was fine as longtime alien fans. I know two psychology doctors who did nothing but talk about it while it was airing so maybe it just went over normies heads.
>>
>>220903226
It is probably the worst thing I have ever watched.
>>
>>220903226
First 2 episodes were kino. Every episode after got increasingly worse. Same thing with Pluribus.
>>
>so this new project, I'm calling it Alien: Earth
>oh cool, so it's Alien on Earth? An uncontainable xenooutbreak, without spaceship walls or a colony dome to constrain them, swarms of xenos spreading like disease, the streets of every major city lined with milions of bodies all wearing face huggers. Split between the high-level response as governments struggle to react to this unprecedented crisis and ultimately collapse, and then down on the front lines as the world's militaries and civilian militias fight against impossible and ever-increasing odds, the mission over the course of the show creeping from containment to consolidation as supply lines and chain of command break down, culminating in a ragged last united stand as they try to protect the few remaining groups of survivors long enough for them all to escape a planet consumed by the greatest biological weapon ever made?
>No actually, not like that at all
>>
>>220905235
>know two psychology doctors who did nothing but talk about it
What did they say?
>>
It has a couple episodes that maybe were meant to be a standalone movie. The rest confusing trash, like a bad mini series they’d put on broadcast TV from 15 years ago. The quality is jumpy. All the actors are OK, many are creepy. I wouldn’t call it important alien story, except the cyberpunk type corporations controlling the world. I think they should restart some of it with new characters and storylines. Probably kill most of the kids characters and bad guys off, and go onto the next plot as fast as possible, because i cant watch anymore of the imprisoned kids or aliens…which is basically alien 4 plot.
>>
I did the basedjack face when this happened but it was all downhill from here.
>>
>>220905257
setting Alien on earth is very risky because the implication in the series and fan assumption is that if they get to earth its over for humans.
But setting it on a Jurassic park island is clever.

I think they should save your post for a movie
World War: Alien

pretty bad. better than prometheus, but that's not saying much.

I found it curious in this series and Predator Badlands they keep upping androids power levels. The Weyland Yutani androids can now take on all sorts of aliens no problem
>>
>>220905291
Prometheus is wayyyyyyyyy better than Alien Earth.
>>
>>220905265
They liked it a lot and enjoyed getting together every week to discuss the episodes. I feel like people get turned off from the relative lack of alien but I suppose they must've liked the character drama like myself, psychologists go full character autismo and write essays about Donnie Darko's hypothetical medications and shit

Wendy was cool but Siggy was cool cool af af in Alien 4 and the wild frenchman made an actually entertaining weird flick

Note to producers: please give us some more fan service episodes.

>>220903226
Xenomorphs are the good guys. Not even kidding
>>
>>220905374
yeah but Wendy is evil, there were no good guys by the end of the show

>>220905320
Even fucking Covenant is better than Earth. Earth is at the very bottom even if you include the whole Predator franchise.

because he was in some form of contractual servitude, they first showed this in Romulus. Basically these big corporations are practicing slavery. He didnt want to be there and wasnt cut out for it
>>
>>220905387
I loved Covenant. I hated AvP 2 so I wouldn't rank it ahead of Earth but I agree about everything else.
>>220905407
Like it or not Covenant is cinema and Earth was a shitshow.
>>
i was pretty happy with how they depicted Earth at least the parts we saw.
Maybe theres parts that look more like Bladerunner
>>
>>220904109
How would it do that?
>>
>>220904657
When did it act in a moral way?
>>
>>220905526
in the lab it tries to warn the scientist the parasite gets out.
Then when the xeno is on the loose it saves the woman by pulling her away from the door and throwing her to the ground. It then gets inbetween the humans and the xenos and starts fighting it.
>>
>>220905235
Let’s not pretend the stupid show was intelligent

I’m still wondering how Weyland Yutani came back for Badlands when they were out of business by Alien: Resurrection
>>
>>220905407
Or maybe some people just genuinely disliked the show. Romulus was also ass
>>
>>220905583
Alien resurrection is set in the far future of the series
>>
>>220905564
The alien is bad and so is the company. This isn’t complicated. It just makes things harder for the heroes
>>
>>220903226
One of the worst shows I've ever seen. Makes Tulsa King look like the Sopranos
>>
>>220905598
Resurrection was 200 years after Alien 3. Badlands was supposedly the most futuristic of either franchise
>>
>>220905617
Resurrection is set in a time where Earth is dead and the rulers of the galaxy are presumably just the military and im assuming that weird ussr faction.
>>
>>220905593
Romulus made Aliens look like Terminator 3
>>
no one was good at the end of the show. All the kids had been shown to do evil acts. All the researchers were immoral as well as every other character.
But the aliens are honest!

They gave a timescale in that film though. 200 years had gone by. When Badlands was being promoted they said it was the furthest out which seems like an error on their part

It's not but I can see why /tv/ would shit on it
