Well I watched the new movie yesterday.
I was pretty happy with it to be honest.
The creepy man-baby-alien at the end was a little cringy, but the whole series was a "rape-horror" idea originally so I guess it fits the HR Giger vibe.

I would've like to at least seen some more on the big chap recovery. But I think it was alright. The behavior of the kids in this movie towards the synth was the worst thing of all to be honest.

Also, loved seeing Ian Holm recurring, even if it was CGI.

After rewatching all the movies again, i find this one at least on par with 3 and 4. And yes, i like those movies similar to 1 and 2. :ironfist:
In my book it sure was more interesting and "Alieny" than Prometheus and Covenant.

The different locations in Romulus were cool and film sets in general looked nice.
Movie could have been a bit more scary though. Sometimes i really wondered why all of a sudden loud blarring "music" was played in to "shock" the audience just to see the protagonist climbing down a ladder,... for example. Kinda useless.
More quality suspense horror would have been nice.

All in all i quite enjoyed it.

:steamthumbsup:

I was a little disturbed by finding out it was a prequel that took place on earth, but after looking into it, it takes place right before the first movie, and I kinda feel like it fills in some plot from the original "Alien"
For instance, the "Why was Ash put on the crew at the last second" and the thoughts of why the company had them respond to the signal to begin with.

The pulse rifle scene was good, that's about it really.

I didn't like it tbh, bunch of kids and the whole movie kinda felt like it wanted to just be/recreate Alien. I'm glad they at least incorporated some elements of the Prometheus and Covenant stories in it.

The Alien: Earth TV show is gonna probably be bad. It's supposed to take place before the original Alien movie and somehow xenomorphs are on earth. I think it's gonna be a situation where they aren't going to respect previous works and just do their own thing.
