he has to make gladiator 2 first. no really, he recently said that one's back on the fast track. screenplay by nick fucking cave no less.

Yeah, bad movies still make their budget back. Doesn't mean it wasn't a disaster as far as quality goes.

Sometimes great movies don't make much money at all.

Why are people against it when it could have been decent or possibly good follow up to aliens? Every alien movie plus spin-off movies after two are utter shit/not cannon. Covenent looks atrocious so fuck Scott.

>>82300062
on one hand Blomkamp actually had a few neat ideas for a Aliens movie.

On the other hand Sigorney Weaver is a complete twat that has shat on the franchise and its fans before all because the series is so PROGUN but still drop to her knees on a moments notice to suck the Aliens dick when a big enough check is raised in her face. The series deseves to not be forced to have to contend with her any more.

>Thank God. Neill Blomkamp sucks.

My same reaction. I'd rather have the weird suckage of these prometheus movies than the "Force Awakens" type fanwankery Blomkamp would have done
>>
>>82300062
No ridley scott is an old cocksucker that just wants money and doesnt give a shit about the IP whilst fanboys crucify blomkamp for a screenplay that'll never see the light of day. When alien covenant sucks worse than prometheus you'll all be playing the contrarians saying" i told you so".
>>
>>82305809
Yeah, he's the JJ Abrams of movies that aren't ruined by JJ Abrams but are ruined by Blomkamp instead.
>>
I'm so fucking confused.

Does he count Alien covenant as a prometheus movie or an alien movie?

Is he saying the alien prequels (prometheus) are still good to go but he is cancelling all sequels to alien?

Wtf is going on
>>
>>82301347
>Doesn't mean it wasn't a disaster as far as quality goes.
that had absolutely no bearing on blomquist's career though. nobody at the studios cares if the movie was "good" or if it "sucked". if it made money (i.e. elysium), you get to make another one. if it is a financial disaster (chappie) you go to director jail and nobody even agrees to have dinner with you for at least a couple years.
>>
>>82301514
I think Cameron will save terminator first. why else would he have a 3 year gap in between avatar 3 and avatar 4 if not to make a badass termikino after getting those rights back around the same time. maybe alien can be saved after avatar 5?

no one thinks covenant is going to be any good, with the possible exception of braindead prometheus fans who are still trying to force the "prometheus was good u pleb" meme

and blomkamp is a video-game-tier hack who's never made a good movie

there are no winners here

the profit margin is wide enough to cover marketing. plus if you really want to play like that, what about all the money generated by DVD/BD sales and TV licensing? it made money. deal with it.

Prometheus uses complete stupidity (with the actions of supposedly intelligent crew) to drive the plot forward in the first half. Then, in the second half it fails to gain any meaningful ground. David is a poor antagonist, the logic behind the alien organism's growth is nonsensical, the entire infertile/birthing subplot/sequence feels shoehorned in and Shaw is a very passive protagonist that struggled to get me engaged with her.

The film only really picks up when the Engineer wakes up but then you have "running in a straight line" meme. It's a poor prequel to Alien and it's a poor standalone movie.
>>
>>82303944
Prometheus was basically capeshit in space tho. If you want a space movie, Interstellar >>>>>>>> Prometheus
>>
>>82306474
Only peoblemo with prometheus was habi g lindeloff - a bitch associated with the jay jay abrahams the cock sucker - so honestly what where you expecting? Anything else?

Look dude, prometheus its master crafted on everything else. This is why people enjoy it.
