>Also in the works is the third “Alien” prequel, which fans have been anticipating since “Alien: Covenant” was released in 2017. Scott says it will pick up with David (Michael Fassbender) creating a “brave new world for himself.” Scott is fascinated by the character, a malfunctioning AI.

>“AIs can go off,” Scott says. “And if they do, it’s like a bomb.”

he already completely ruined the prequel series acting like a fucking baby because they made him put an actual xenomorph in it in exchange for killing off Blomkamp's Aliens sequel that literally everyone wanted

Him and Walter were the only good things about those movies to be fair. Ridley has consistently made shite for decades now though.

We. Don't. Care. Alien is about aliens. Scott has an obsession and he ruins other shit with it. I do like some of his stuff, but not when it comes to this. If he wants to do more android shit then he can go make another season of Raised by Wolves. Stop fucking up other series

every prequel seemingly has the same damn problems, why do they ever get made at all anymore
easiest way to ruin some decades old film is suddenly trying to make prequels to it for no fucking reason whatsoever instead of just making sequels cause creative bankruptcy

Fassbender is going to look noticeably older than he did in Covenant.

How many times exactly do you expect this to work? He's doing exactly what he should be, expanding the IP with new lore. Only the creator can add lore that the audience will accept. If literally who made Prometheus people would call it fanfiction but now even if you don't like it you have to accept it's part of Alien canon

Meh, I thought it worked. He looked like a fucked up synthetic humanoid.

Did you think the effects were bad, or the performance, or just that Romulus was shit in general?

>>222800618
Honestly this is what torpedoed Prometheus at the end, trying to shoehorn in that 'Alien' showdown at the end.

He's a synthetic, it doesn't have to look natural.

They can even have the other characters react to the appearance like it's uncanny.

The source material for Alien and Blade Runner is incredibly deep. If you couldn’t figure out what these movies are about, its your own lack of a soul

>Alien should've been retired long ago.
Clearly you're not a fan and your opinion should be ignored. I don't want Alien to be retired and the only way for the series to survive is to keep expanding the universe. Remaking the same movie over and over can only work like once every 20 years

really a missed opportunity to do something like make him a genuine decent robot and play up the mistrust angle between him, andy and the rest of the crew
they almost fucking tease it too with how andy makes a promise to be helpful to rain and rook tells andy to "help them" because he knows navarro is a huge risk
then 5 seconds later he's obviously super evil when he overwrites andy's directive
i'm not asking for masterclass acting or writing but give us something not so blatently obvious without copying 1:1 bishop or walter being bros till the end

You should actually read up on who PKD was instead of talking out your ass about a franchise you clearly dont like.

are we at the pretending not to understand things stage again?

Hey retard yeah you can make a alien movie but you know it should be a alien movie, you can make a bond movie but dont expect people to cheer for you when your new vision of bond is focusing on his brothers grocery buying habits and remove all spy stuff cause you think the brother is sooo fucking interesting (he isnt) at that point you have not made a bond movie no matter how many times you call it that.

I only like David because of Fassbender's acting

you are not making it MORE when the stuff you add is literal dog shit now you have made it worse that what it initially was. and that factually happened with prometheus and convenant and at the end of alien earth.. making something worse is not better anon.

One of the key takeaways from PKD’s novels is that all Abrahamics (Christians, Muslims, and Jews) are soulless abominations doomed for nonexistence when they die.
But you’re an idiot and dont give a shit about the intent of author. You just want slasher slop
>>
>>222801120
it was half the plot of the movie. the whole premise is external danger in the form of the alien + danger from within in the form of an android infiltrator. seething about alien movies having androids in them when it's a foundational concept in the franchise is retarded. to use your own bond comparison: it's like wanting bond movies not to have bond girls in them because you're gay.
>>
>>222801273
what the fuck does that have to do with Alien?
>>
>>222801273
why are you talking about pkd in an alien thread? are you confusing it with blade runner?

>>222801333
PKD wrote blade runner.
Alien takes place in the same universe as Blade Runner
The synths are allegorical for Christians cuz they don’t have a soul, like the replicants.
>>
>>222801303
it was an element. not half the plot. The movie was about an Alien. It was there for most of the movie.
The movie was not about synth people. its like saying the movie was about half about corporations. they WERE the ones pushing everything, right HUHHHHHHH. It was Half about truckers. They were all space truckers right? Alien, whaaaaaa?

Yo, isn't he like 117yo? How is he able to concentrate long enough to contribute to anything? Must be awkward.
Seriously, though, you know how they say that science progress one death at a time? Because old scientist keep peddling their bullshit and constraining new research so their stuff keeps being relevant? After Scott dies, God bless him, are either going to get kino of the higher tier on Alien and the absolute bottom of the barrel tier trash that he was keeping at bay.

>>222801388
the android was also there for most of the movie. you're just acting like a sperg. nobody's going to delete a foundational idea from franchise lore just because you don't like robots in fiction. the alien, the synth, the corporation, these are all things alien's "about."

Prometheus David's passive aggressive wit and utter contempt for having to deal with humans is the highlight of the entire movie.

I really wonder how it would have turned out in some alt reality where it actually happened. Seemed like there was a number of cool scenes planned and talked about. Would hope at least for some level of detail as Elysium when it came to the tech and gear but i'm kinda worried because blomkamp's record has been pretty meh for most of his carrer and i'm not really sure he can handle the dark more horror aspects of alien well
but hindsight is always 20/20 right, could have been great, the whole jungle biome thing makes me think about the xenos being rapors from jurassic park picking off people in some weird sci-fi garden with sakura trees and shit

you're losing your mind a little here. take a deep breath. no, continuing to have synths in alien movies after the first one established that synths are part of the story is not like making an alien movie that has nothing in it but a cat. i repeat, you're being a sperg. nobody's going to delete half the lore for you because you hate robots. go find a franchise with no robots.

disagreeing with you isn't "losing my mind"
and want an alien movie with no aliens because something else was in the movie too.
that's a stupdi idea. make a diffretn movie, not an alien movie if you want to remove what the movie was about.
just because something is an element doesn't mean that's what the movie is ABOUT.
Alien was not about synths, or cats, or Ripley.
Ridple is a large element of the series but if you did just a movie about Ripley's day to day life, nobody would give a shit.

YOU just want a movie about robots and for some reason it was to be the Alien series and you don't like that people are pointing out what a shit idea it is. That's why nobody liked Scott's prequels,

Kind of agree with people saying Covenant already fucked it by not being a real sequel to Prometheus, but I think if Ridley doesn't shoehorn in too much Alien stuff like he did in Covenant and just let the movie be what it is like Prometheus, this movie could still be good

>>222800039

He's literally the most interesting character in the Prometheus movies

This is like a nobrainer

>>222802459
He's a boring homosexual robot who just does random sinister stuff because the script calls for it. There is nothing deep in these shitty movies despite what Ridley thinks.

>>222802459
because he is a shit character with all the focus on for no reason in a movie that is basically frankenstein rape fanfic version 30 degrees removed from an actual alien movie.

People think they wanted it, but he's been singularly coasting off District 9 credit. His movie was going to have Ripley in some xenomorph suit? Look it's fair to resent Ridley's prequels for being trash but you can't then lust after other trash you never got to be cry about for disappointing you.

I'd support it as long as Ridley is uninvolved.

He's too old and can't make a good movie anymore, Gladiator 2 and his most recent pile of shit, Dog Stars are proof of that. Pass the fucking torch already.

The plot of Prometheus and Covenant is already convoluted enough. Ridley might have created the Alien franchise, but he has also been its destruction. Then again he's not the only problem, look at Alien Earth, what a pile of shit that show was. Romulus was just mediocre too, but at least it had some things going for it I guess and was a more classical Alien movie despite the cast being horrid.

>>222806403
to this day i still don't understand when anons say david made them - like the fucking mural and the end of his 1st movie with the deacon coming out of the engineer proves that david didn't cook them up in a lab designing them - the good naturally creates that stuff while breaking other things down and changing them. yes it's played very loosely but david didn't make them, if anything he just created some sorta fork once he was on the engi planet - even the facehugger likely isn't his due to the monster in prometheus existing. the mold for those creates is there and they just changed based on some variables.
what i really wanna know is if there was some NEXT STEP for the aliens. one of the dropped plot lines in the OG alien was that it was a newborn and it was making scratch marks in the vents that would eventually turn into basic pictures or language as it was growing. from newborn to adult. obviously this was dropped but the films have dabbled with newborns before in their own ways so it isn't so far fetched. is there some possible combination of variables that would lead to a less hostile xeno of much higher intelligence or awareness
don't need a talking xeno but it would be interesting if that thread was ever picked up

You couldn't be more wrong. If you re-watch Ridley's entire Alie oeuvre, start-to-finish, you notice that AI is a common thread throughout. Hell, there is even an easter egg in the first movie in the form of the drinking bird. People in power, like him, knew all along that AI was coming. It was just slowly introduced into an unsuspecting society. But him, and James Cameron and Stanley Kubrick (2001) knew all along.

I’m reasonably sure that David’s aware that he didn’t create them, but he is “improving” them. I think he sees that the Engineers achieved Singularity, merged with their own technology, and he sees within them and their creations(if they in fact *did* create the Xenos) the means by which a biomechanical synth like himself could become a species of its own.

Resurrection is the best; Romulus is the same plot as Resurrection, only with shitty actors and more shitskins.

Resurrection was the first film actually to do something interesting with the concept. Insead of the Aliens being this impossible force of nature, now you're dealing with militaries/governments attempting to clone, crossbreed, and weaponize them. Res had the best cast by far—so many solids and heavies in that film.

I'd prefer he hadn't made Covenant, and had instead made a more direct sequel to Prometheus which kept Shaw alive and on the same quest.
