The Covenant is a high tech colonization ship. The Nostromo is a dirty ass tugboat equipped with cheap tech.

When was the nostromo commissioned and when was the covenant / prometheus commissioned?

Nostromo looks like it was built in the 80's...

well maybe losing all those fucking expensive ships to alien planets set up a red flag at managerial.

Nah keep Alien garbage out of Blade Runner.

Honestly the one on the right is more aesthetically pleasing.

Should've done an Archer, where technology is trapped in its own aesthetic.

It's almost as if our idea of future technology has changed, in part due to speedy progress and development in real world.

that's all you need to know about the haters. Prometheus was simply too deep for them. Patricians see a multi-layered satire about the folly of man, plebs see muh dumb characters and muh CGI.

>>82269604
Holograms are a meme that sticks purely out of habit because movies from the 60s-70s when it was new. They may at some point become used en masse for storage, but visually they're shit.
Even Oculus like VR pieces are more likely to become mainstream than holography as a visual medium, and they will be much cheaper, dependable and versatile.
