Because the fertile females already have their own husbands coming along.

You could make this argument for a lesbian couple if they agreed to both get inseminated, but that logic doesn't work for two fags. They literally provide nothing in terms of colonization.

They're dead weight.

>>
>>79933572
>>79933628
Calm down. It's gone now.

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.

David 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.
>>
>>79933221
this

that wasn't neccesary at all

they shouldn't have show the alien in any trailer and keep it for the movie
>>
>>79932702
.James Fraco

Dropped. I'll probably pirate it, absolutely zero chance I'm paying money to see anything with that faggot in it.
>>
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, to the black ooze and, after numerous failed attempts, has created an alien egg, which produces a facehugger that latches itself to Archer.

Daniels and Tennessee realize David is controlling the Neomorphs and blow up his laboratory, killing the Neomorphs. They escape back to the Covenant with Walter and Archer in order to leave Paradise, but a Primal Xenomorph bursts out of Archer and begins slaughtering the remaining crew. Daniels and Tennessee lure the Xenomorph into the Covenant's airlock and eject it into space just as the Covenant takes off.

After escaping, Daniels and Tennessee 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. David secretly plants two alien egg embryos among the human frozen embryos that the Covenant is transporting to proceed to the next phase of his experiment.
>>
So David destroyed the entire Engineer Civilization, and they lived in temples and shit instead of biomechanical buildings, that's kinda lame. I hope there a Walter vs Davis moment, i want Walter to stay good like Bishop.

my niggas

Alien Isolation legitimately felt like it was directed by Ridley Scott 30 years ago. I loved it.
>>
The problem is that Ridley Scott keeps trying to "recreate the magic" of the original Alien. But what made it so great was how original it was, and how you had no idea what to expect.

These movies like Covenant and Prometheus try too hard to just be retreads of Alien. We already know the shtick and he just throws in a bunch of references to the original, as if that's a substitute for decent filmmaking.

I know it's now fashionable to hate Aliens, but regardless of where you stand on the Alien vs Aliens debate, that was a good sequel because it built off its predecessor while giving us something new. Compare that to these nu-Alien movies, where the only reason anyone goes to see them it because "hey, I wonder how THIS new type of alien will burst out of the host!" It's no better than those shitty Saw movies that people just watch to see interesting new ways people die.

I watched some clips of Alien: Isolation's development process and you could really see how much love these guys put into the project, they poured their souls on it.
Fox even gave them a gorillion terabytes of source material from the production of the original Alien so that it'd be as based as possible. That game is nigh-flawless.

I was hyped about the engineers' home planet, expecting amazing visuals and maybe even seeing who or what do the engineers serve. But no...IT WAS EARTH ALL ALONG AND THEY'RE ALL DEAD LMAO

You mean the second, right? Or are they implicitly admitting that Prometheus was a total failure and they're trying to sweep it under the rug?

But then we have stuff carried over from Prometheus like Fassbender, so...
>>
>>79932702
Looks like the Force Awakens all over again, a supposed reboot that is really a soft remake. What with a similar main character to Ripley, the same sequence of events that leads to the alien or at least a creature similar to the alien and a bunch of working class characters doing some working class things until they are thrust into a situation beyond their ken

Won't see this in theaters but I'll give it a shot later
>>
>>79934153
The trailer says it's staffed by couples. Put it together. And even then you still wouldn't pick a gay couple. Each pair of child-producers matters in this sort of context. Putting up a gay couple means one less couple that could be producing kids.

You also wouldn't bring eunuchs, the elderly, and the infertile for the exact same reason. They're just dead weight.

Nope. David is going to experiment with the Goo to create the xenomorpg that we see in Alien. It's not the same Alien as in prometheus.

why.

>>79933647
Aliens is still a good film, but it's fun. It's a film you watch when you get a few beers in with your friends.

Alien is just a beautiful film. The film is from what, '78, and it STILL looks like a fairly real depiction of the future to me. Everything good horror and sci-fi should be, absolutely dripping with atmosphere. The derelict ship is one of my favourite SFX set pieces of all time in any film.
>>
>>79937192
xenos are a bioweapon of a mysterious alien race

when you have uncontrolled black goo exposure, you get weird shit like fifield zombie, the deacon, hammerpedes and the neomorphs. this is because the black goo is an evolutionary accellerant designed to create xenomorphs from a planet's resident biology.

david is just trying to make a proper one from the black goo.

Ditto. I won't start a new thread but I'm SEVERELY DISSAPOINTED by what I've seen in the trailer. The footage suggests that there are no new ideas and worthwhile characters to present that expands the Alien franchise in any meaningful way. They are just cashing in on nostalgia and nerd culture. Prometheus was very hype just before its release and still left me disappointed. This trailer brings NOTHING NEW to the table.

Yeah, I gotta say, that's really lost me on this one.

I don't know, the first Alien works for me because it's such a mysterious, cryptic film. It's a film that shows us something like the Space Jockey and realises that part of the fun of a film like this is our speculation, and the atmosphere that such bizarre imagery creates.

This just feels like 'WHOA LOOK THE ALIENS ARE BACK DON'T YOU LOVE THEM'. The alien was just one aspect of what made Alien a masterpiece.

Yeah, Prometheus was an amazing watch in the cinema; if nothing else Scott still had a great eye for striking, dark visuals and an eerie, cryptic tone.

I think that betrays the point that was originally being made with Weyland-Yutani, though.

It was shown to be dangerous in Alien/s precisely because of its impersonality.

Ripley has a great line in Aliens; 'You know, Burke, I don't know which species is worse. You don't see them fucking each other over for a goddamn percentage'.

That's what the character of David feels like a misunderstanding of. When you have a recurring villain like him, you miss that Weyland-Yutani is meant to represent the banality of human evil as a counterpoint to the brutal but animalistic nature of the xenomorph.

You kids need to stop your fag-tier shit. 4chan already has ironic prudes, contrarian conservatives, and memeing shitposting at critical levels. Just spouting your shit opinions doesn't make it true, but it does encourage the spread of that social meme on /tv/. Newfags will continue to spread it, and take it to heart. Much like how the memesters who started saying Man of Steel, BvS, and the Star Wars prequels are "good" started a wave of shitposting, this will do the same for the xenomorph movies. Hell, some faggots say 3 is better than 2. This is a matter of maintaining the fragments of /tv/ culture that are still around. Have some fucking respect.

This doesn't necessarily mean that the first batch will be all that starts the colony. I also agree with that anon that said it's not the sole colonists for that place. Maybe they're just there to set up the colony, get shit started so that the later colonists just show up to populate it. Much cheaper than carrying excess tons of weight, weight like a shitload of machinery for multitudes of people or food or building materials. Like, they could just have a small set of tools from which to develop the essentials and from which to start a fledgling civilization. Make your own tools after a while.

I mean, I think you could maybe justifying it as it being 'colonization' in that they're setting up a base camp + terraforming shit and that long-term couples would increase stability. Then it wouldn't really matter if they could have kids or not.

It makes sense from a technical point of view that the ships crew would awaken perhaps weeks earlier than the passengers. (This happened in the movie Passengers for example) and they are expected to get everything ready before the people even make up. Again, it's not hard to think of reasons why.

In the case of 3, it was widely criticized, it's essentially a failure. Even the director said so, and the extended cut doesn't change the essence of the story. While you can personally enjoy the film, to say it's better than 2 is just asinine. I enjoy Death Machine but I wouldn't say it deserves awards, for example. I also enjoy Resurrection, but again, I like it despite its big flaws. These memesters spout these shit opinions, and for contrarian reasons.

They have an android, but real people are needed to raise children. An android would make a good doctor for example, but they lack the empathy and spontaneity required to properly nurture a child.

I can imagine a world considered for a possible colony is checked as thoroughly as they possibly can. They don't even detect the lack of animals so they just kinda land and walk into it. Maybe stupid but they probably aren't super technical people, they were likely selected and chosen for their ability to fit in well and be useful in the colony. Hell maybe they are purposefully kept in the dark and sent to a world the company knows is contaminated on purpose, as part of some obscure plan. Lots of options.

Doesn't matter, you would still need to vaccinate people with weakened strands of the local pathogens for them to build a immunity

There is no way to do this before actually getting the pathogen strands from the planet.

Seems like the wheat being there was odd, could it have been something David planted while fucking around on the planet? Also that tiny flash where we see a hooded figure, likely David, walking through corpses towards an Engineer city. I really hope we get more lore on the Engineers in this.

>In the case of 3, it was widely criticized, it's essentially a failure. Even the director said so, and the extended cut doesn't change the essence of the story. While you can personally enjoy the film, to say it's better than 2 is just asinine.

Oh yea, but this isn't hard sci-fi. The intended audience for an Alien movie largely doesn't care about crap like that. Like how on Star Wars they just land on planets and walk right out and pew pew. So I never expected them to explore that at all.

I thought I read something about the Covenant carrying 200+ people in cryo, and they're not really part of this movie oh god what if they become the eggs from Alien, but the actual crew are the ones that get wrecked by the various forms of Ayyylmao David is playing frisbee with.

It's dumb and infuriating because in the first movie the facehugger melts through Kane's helmet and infects him.

So there is no obstacle for infection if wearing a suit, not having suits is just lazy writing for dumb people

I'm not particularly looking forward to this film but it's set like 200 years in the future and they have faster than light travel. If something doesn't align with reality, I just think 'future science found a fix'.

Are you even proofreading or thinking your posts through before you type them up and post them? If you wanna go full autist, humans would not be affected by foreign life. Even with the engineers seeding our shit doesn't mean that all life close to our planet would have the same basic chemistry/set-up. Hell, we couldn't even process alien life as food as they could be made up of anything. It's more about not letting earth life contaminate xeno planets, and the planets not poison us with chemical compounds (not life) that could kill us, eg a chlorine or other weird atmosphere.

>>79941172
Wrong. Like I said, your enjoyment and criticism of a movie are separate. Much like if you love a 6/10 chick, she has flaws that can be objectively measured against other chicks and therefore can be rated regardless of your feelings. I like Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen, but I wouldn't say that movie deserved an Oscar or Academy Award. I like a lot of shitty movies, but I can also be objective in my criticisms.

Just saying a movie is great doesn't make it so, that's why a lot of shitty movies are said to have a "cult following". A minority loves them but the majority doesn't and don't even remember them.
>>

green-band trailers. not even once.

>>79941284

to be fair, in the original Alien, they weren't spending most of the movie on the planet and outside, so it was just a few scenes where three actors weren't showing their pretty faces while wandering around in space suits.
>>

>implying that this far in the future they don't have a fairly effective general vaccine

You are confusing broad-spectrum antibiotic with viral vaccines

And having a theoretical super-vaccine then makes the alien infecting people nonsensical

If you want to go down that route then humans couldn't be infected by the alien to begin with.

>>79941407
Not necessarily. The xenomorph is a bioweapon created by aliens far beyond us (the us of the future) in technological advancement. It seems to make sense to me that they'd have a workaround for that.

Basically, I don't see the point in worrying about scientific minutiae in sci-fi like this, because I can always just think 'maybe future science changes everything'.

And there's no way to say that's wrong, because the future hasn't happened yet, and I won't be around to see that future.

>Much like if you love a 6/10 chick, she has flaws that can be objectively measured against other chicks and therefore can be rated regardless of your feelings.

But anon, what makes a flaw a flaw is subjective.

That's what I'm saying here. You can't be objective in your criticisms because you can't be objective period; every judgement you make is based on your subjective understanding.

>Just saying a movie is great doesn't make it so, that's why a lot of shitty movies are said to have a "cult following". A minority loves them but the majority doesn't and don't even remember them.
But if I call a film great, I'm not saying that the majority share my opinion. I'm saying 'I think this is great'. I'm not saying you should agree with me or disagree. I'm just stating 'hey, that's what I thought of this film'.

There's no 'true' way to rate a film's quality because judgement of artistic quality is something that you do yourself as a subject.

So Paradise is likely the Engineer homeworld, which was ravaged by something related to their research/experiments/black goo/xenomorphs? I always felt that the Engineers likely suffered some kind of religious war sometime after seeding earth. The new faction despises the species created by the ritual seen at the beginning of Prometheus and as part of their religious crusade, created the xenomorphs and other bioweapons to easily annihilate them. I wonder if that could be possible.

I get what you mean but I think that what the Engineers/Space Jockey represent because of that is more powerful.

A species that reached the very heights of power, yet the only creation that they will ever be remembered by is their destruction.

ironic

Shaw realized the Engineers are all garbage so she used the ship from Prometheus and sacrificed herself to wipe them all out.

I understand that, but I don't think I'm being precise. It's one thing to personally love a movie and state your opinion, it's a whole other thing to rag on another popular movie solely because a majority of people and critics loved it more than your movie. It isn't the same thing to say that I like Resurrection (which I do, only things I hate are the shitty monster at the end and that they brought back Ripley), and that Resurrection is better than Aliens and that it's shit because of my opinion about Resurrection. Two totally different things. And because I hate insincerity, it pisses me off even more. When the contrarians outright dismiss Aliens just to be different, rather than just state their love for another, it pisses me off. It's like purposely saying Jupiter Rising is an objectively better movie than The Matrix, and denounce all of its achievements and impact. It's not sincere, it's being a fake contrarian, either for (you)s, for memes, trolling, or a combination of these. They don't do it out of love for the film.
