How the fuck does this fit into Alien lore?
>>
>>223921513
Little eyeball fella
>>
It doesn’t, that’s why Alien: Earth was so fucking bad. I can’t believe they’re filming Season 2 right now. No one wants more of that bullshit.
>>
>>223921513
It doesn’t. None of it does. Hawley is a wanker who only knows how to play with other people’s toys clumsily while badly rehashing a lot of their ideas and thinking he’s being clever
>>
>>223921513
They've beaten this series to death and there is no more blood left in it.
>>
Because it's an alien lol
>>
This nigga cares about goyslop "lore" JAJAJAJAJA

>It doesn’t, that’s why Alien: Earth was so fucking bad. I can’t believe they’re filming Season 2 right now. No one wants more of that bullshit.
Ironically, the eyeball was the best received part of the entire show.
>>
>>223921513
They won't explain it. They won't explain any of the other dangerous alien life either.
>>
can`t watch it cause one actress looks like that one pornstar...can`t fap everytime she has screentime
>>
>>223921585
It’s weird haha. Remember when nobody watched Rangz of Power on Amazon and it lost them millions but they went ahead and made a second season anyway? Really weird, haha.
>>
The Alien universe makes no sense in general.
If androids like David exist and are apparently in mass production (before the first Alien movie) why in fucks name is Weyland-Yutani staffing their ships with meat bags?
>>
>>223921513
Why did he send his top secret, trillion dollar child avatars to a crash site?
>>
>>223921513
a sentient parasitic eyeball that takes control over your body was the least retarded part of this show.

in first movies it wasnt WY ships. And in new trash they just dont give a crap and writers is retarded.
>>
>>223921513
Directly, it doesn’t, but it could be considered one of the “bugs” Hudson mentioned in Aliens. I’ve always thought that that line tightened the meaning of the “Bonus Situation.” It would mean that alien life isn’t unheard of, but they’d yet to find evidence of alien intelligence.
>>
>>223921513
Is this show airing again?
>>
I've stopped after the first two episodes but would unironically continue it if they wrote the "kids" out of the show.
>>
>>223921832
in the dystopian future ppl are cheaper/more expendable than droids
>>
>>223922714
That's a poor explanation. Losing a ship to a poor crew instead of spending a little more for an android crew makes no sense, especially in a cost to risk ratio.
>>
>>223921811
>Rangz of Power
o lawdy lawd dem rangz innit chudcel

>>223921513
That's what happens when different people are asked to make sequels. Sometimes they're like
"I wanted to make my own thing so fuck it, the original thing is nothing now and instead it's all going to be about my OCs! I sure hope my OCs will be popular enough to replace the originals and now the series will be all about them!"
>>
>>223921513
Its the eye from the tony hawk games
>>
>>223922142
This was my take. Bugs = Aliens. Arcturian poontang is canon, life in the stars is well established as humans expand into the galaxy.

The problem I had was those guys had already captured a full grown xeno until retarded plot point happens and Xeno escapes. It already takes you out of it that offscreen these guys captured all of these horrific things without incident (although they MAY have alluded to casualties, can’t remember/don’t care), but by time the cameras roll, everyone has the intellect of Corky from Life Goes On…and they STILL manage to capture the full grown Xeno AGAIN!! And it gets away...AGAIN!!!

Like they said above, the eyeball was the least offensive thing on the show.

>if just one alien gets back to earth mankind will die i ripley will end my own life to prevent it
>kek they been there loads of times it was fine
>>
>>223921513
>why isn't the xenomorph the only alien in the universe?
I liked the alien species menagerie and the show was pretty watchable.
>>
>>223921513
It doesn't. But it's pretty much what you'd expect from a modern TV show. Hawley is a hack.
>>
>>223921513
The whole show takes place in a space of a year or so that was never covered in any other media. It's a perfect fit for a pocket story that doesn't affect preexisting lore.
This is right though >>223922834. The 5 corporations that run the whole human race are each worth trillions of dollars and they should be able to staff ships with the best. The synths in the show make more sense because they are experimental models.

the only good thing in the entire alien show lol

Alien just became stupid when they started treating them as more than dangerous animals.
>>
>>223921513
this was meant to sell merch. like baby yeed.

>>223921513
this show is a disaster, it should be ignored

You mean you don't own any yet?

straight in the eye socket
>>
>>223921513
It doesn't. They took several unrelated scripts most notably one for a Bladerunner series and combined them under the Alien banner in a cynical plot to get people to watch drivel
>>
I enjoyed the show. The different alien species were interesting. The eyeball alien was definitely the highlight of the show, but the writers themselves ruined it by putting an end to speculation the fans had about the eyeball. I have no idea why every show needs a stupid podcast where writers and actors go over the episode.

>The different alien species were interesting.
they barely do anything, what is so interesting about slightly bigger bugs?
>>
>>223923047
holy fuck

>>223921513
Alien series was one of the few I still follow to this day, but the show was absolute dog shit tier trash. It felt like someone had a Peter Pan fetish and wanted to make commentary about tech bros.

I literally do not care about sick children being turned into androids. Actual back story about how synthetics being made was boring and gay. They completely failed to tell a compelling story, and throwing in the xenomorph did not help.

Only kidna cool part was the black bounty hunter or whatever cyborg.
>>
>>223921513
I don't know, If it takes out the androids and the xenomorph, that'll be great.
>>
>>223921513
It doesn't because it's not canon, it contradicts the movies and it wasn't even supposed to be an Alien show originally.
>>
>>223921778
Yes, because Disney knows exactly how to play retards like you. They know since Baby Yoda, all they have to do is make a cute widdle cuddly invicible quirkchungus that can do anything and you'll cum all over yourself in excitement. Doesn't have to make sense in the slightest. You'll still guzzle the slop.
>>
>>223921553
It's female. That's why it's smarter than everything else including the xenomorph.
>>
They dig through piles of unused scripts and frankenstein concepts together to make retarded shit like this.
>>
>>223921513
I actually like alien earth. I thought it was very well done.
>>
>>223921513
it doesn't matter. only Alien, Aliens and Alien: Isolation are canon
>>
>>223923619
Alien=Aliens>Prometheus>Romulus>Covenant>>>>>Earth>3>ResErrection although the bits with the deadwood doc were ok
>>
>>223925941
Alien 3 is like MILES better then anything else Since and included Alien Ressurection.
>>
>>223921513
Pretty well actually. It’s both body horror and intelligent. Best thing on that show.
>>
>>223926010
Alien3 is complete and utter garbage. It's the reason that 90% of Alien films suck ass. Because that specific film crashed the series into a wall for no reason. It went from a big high to a deep chasm it still hasn't recovered from decades later.
>>
>>223926037
You have to let go
>>
>>223926037
Cope. Alien 3 was the course correction needed to stop Alien from turning into Star wars slop before it was too late, it's a rape-horror franchise not action adventure shit

I liked Alien 3
>>
>>223926037
>Alien3 is complete and utter garbage.
>better then anything else
As i SAID in comparison its a funking masterpiece. With actual non retarded characters and logical plot.
>>
>>223921513
I doesn't fit into the lore. Nothing about the show makes any sense. It was written and produced by hack retards with the imaginative scope and critical thinking skills of an acorn. It must be one of the most absurdly convenient scripts ever to get greenlit. The spaceship crash setup was beyond ridiculous. I mean, we have hours of bystander footage showing the destructive chaos caused by mere airliners intentionally flown into buildings, and they had the balls to write and film that scene in its presented totality. I also like how Wendy was confused about her boobs in episode one, as if her conscious self had never encountered a grown woman before her stupid “transition.” If breasts are that much of a mystery for her, I can’t imagine how confused she must be about her bush. Like why wouldn't you brief this little girl about what to expect after this ridiculous process of moving her consciousness? It's so stupid. Everything about this show was beyond dumb.
