Confirmed by the latest trailer.The spaceship Covenant is transporting frozen embryos to a human colony on a faraway planet when they receive a distress signal from Elizabeth Shaw (Noomi Rapace), from the Prometheus expedition, which disappeared 10 years prior. The crew is brought out of hypersleep to answer to the signal, which leads to the death of the Covenant's captain, Branson (James Franco). His wife, terraforming researcher Daniels (Katherine Waterson), is deeply affected by the accident, while Branson's first officer Archer (Billy Crudup) is made captain. The Covenant is piloted by Daniels's friend Tennessee (Danny McBride) and the crew is aided by an android, Walter (Michael Fassbender).
The Covenant follows Shaw's signal to Paradise, an uncharted forest planet and homeworld of the Engineers, the ancient extraterrestrials that seeded life on Earth and then sought to the destroy it. The Engineers' secret weapon, the black ooze, has spread through Paradise, turning it into a wasteland. The Covenant's crew ventures into Paradise on a transport shuttle, and two of its members are exposed to spores released by plants infected by the ooze. One of them is quarantined aboard the transport shuttle, where a monstrous "Neomorph" bursts from his back and kills another crewmember. While trying to kill it, another crewmember accidentally shoots the shuttle's fuel tank, causing it to explode.
Another Neomorph bursts from the other infected crewmember's throat and chases the remaining crew into the forest, where they are ambushed by more Neomorphs and all but Daniels, Tennessee, Archer and Walter are slaughtered. They are rescued from the Neomorphs by David (Michael Fassbender), the sole survivor of the Prometheus crew. He reveals that Shaw sacrificed herself to crash a spaceship against Paradise's surface, exposing the Engineers to the black ooze to prevent them from destroying Earth, leaving him stranded on Paradise.
David leads the survivors back to the Engineers' derelict citadel, where he's been living ever since. Walter mistrusts David, who is not behaving in accordance with their programming, and finds out that David in fact murdered Shaw. David's mind has been warped by the numerous modifications that his creator, Peter Weyland (Guy Pearce), made to his programming during the Prometheus's expedition, and is obsessed with creating the "perfect organism". He exposed numerous lifeforms on Paradise, including Shaw, with the black ooze and, after numerous failed attempts, has created an alien egg, which produces a facehugger that latches itself to Archer, leading to the birth of a Primal Xenomorph.
Daniels and the ship's pilot, Tennessee (Danny McBride), realize David is controlling the Neomorphs and flee back to the Covenant with Walter in order to escape. Together, Daniels, Tennessee and Walter manage to detonate explosives to destroy David's laboratory, with the Neomorphs and David himself apparently perishing in the explosion.
The trio returns to the Covenant, unaware that the Primal Xenomorph has infiltrated their dropship. It begins slaughtering the remaining crew until Daniels and Tennessee manage to lure him into an airlock and eject him into the void of space, where it dies.
Daniels and Tennessee are the sole survivors of the massacre and place themselves back in hypersleep to continue their voyage to the colony, unaware that David has killed Walter and stolen his identity to leave Paradise, and that it was Walter who died in the explosion. David secretly plants alien egg embryos among the human frozen embryos that the Covenant is transporting to continue with his experiments.

wait what, so Fassbender is playing 2 characters?

>Cronenberg will never adapt this
Don't think it would work as a full length feature honestly.
>>79956402
The book is shit though. No story or purpose whatsoever, its torture porn at best
>>79956402
>Cronenberg will never do icky body horror ever again
There was some violence in Eastern Promises, but that's it, that's the last of it. After that he made some boring Freud thing and something about a dude in a limo. What the fuck is going on with Cronenberg?
Is Attack of the Clones the most underrated prequel?
>>79956118
Yes. Best soundtrack of the prequels which was John Williams actual prime era
No it was by far the worst of the prequels
Only good for memes like all the prequels.
Only good things about the prequel was in the first one and that was just the podracing and darth maul.

Is the Marky Mark planet of the apes better than the current trilogy?
>>79955794
They are both shit. I'd watch the marky mark one purely for laughs though. I mean it, the new series is terrible.
Movies were just significantly better 15-20 years ago. Even something that was considered a bad movie from those days would still blow today's "good" movies out of the water.

What is historical perspective?
Please help me clear up this confusion /tv/
From what I know, the Director acts as an overseer and guides the editor and cinematographer and all the others who work on the movie, and makes all the important creative decisions and stuff, and this is why they are usually considered the "author" of a movie.
However, in awards for some reason Best Picture and Best Director are two different things. Wouldn't the best director make the best movie? That's like saying "This writer is great but not his book." Are there movies where the directing is great but the movie sucks, or vice versa? How do you separate directing from the movie when it is the movie? desu I don't really know what it means when people say "the directing is great," other than the movie itself was good.
>>79955771
>directing is great but the movie sucks
For instance that happens when the source material (script) sucks but the movie is coherent, its pace is on point, etc.
>>79955771
>The Academy gives out meaningless awards to stroke the egos of it's members
Holy shit I think you might be on to something theredumb frogposter
Best Picture goes to the producers of the film. When a film wins Best Director, but not best picture, it means the directing, what you see on screen, is better than the other film, but isn't better as a whole. La La Land is a big extravagant film with good directing, so Chazelle gets the award, but Moonlight is the better film overall.
what does /tv/ think of Mad Max on water?
I love it, but I'm not /tv/, so I don't know.

It's Unlikely Ulysses.
I'm surprised there are so many threads about it. I don't think anyone ever though it was good. I'm ancient and I remember when it came out, I think I went and saw it in the cheapie second run theaters, and my reaction was "meh". I remember Dennis Hopper being particularly bad. The only thing it was notable for was going way over budget.
