It's Alien: Covenant in Polish. It's just that "Obcy" means both "Alien" and "Aliens" in Polish and "Przymierze" means both "Alliance" and "Covenant" so

Alien: Covenant -> Obcy: Przymierze

I never understood why Koreans don't translate movie titles, just transliterate the English terms into Korean. How fucking cucked does your country have to be to do this for literally every single foreign movie?

Ayyy! Now that's funny.
I thought only we Hungarians translated the first Alien movie's title as "Eighth traveler: (the) Death".

(Second one was "The planet called: Death", by the way)
>>
>>82410788
Spain too
Alien el Octavo Pasajero
Second was Aliens El Regreso (the return)
>>
>>82410897
Interesting.

But you guys at least have the "Alien" in it.
I don't even know how those Hungarians who can't speak English call the alien. Monster, maybe? Creature? I don't know.
>>
>>82411009
They call him romanian
>>
>>82411009
alien the noun in spanish is alienigena though but the creature was called alien and now nobody says alienigena anymore and just say alien to all extraterrestrials
>>
Are the countries that translate movie posters the same countries that dub them?
Here they just call it whatever it's called in the US, with the exception of a few kids movies
>>
>>82410897
Same in France

Eighth traveler: Romanian.
Wow, that actually sounds good.

Summary:
>A commercial crew aboard the Hungarian towing ship, Nostromo is on its way home when they pick up an SOS warning from Transylvania. What they don't know is that the SOS warning is not like any other ordinary warning call. Picking up the signal, the crew realizes that they are not alone when a Romanian stowaway is on the cargo ship.

"The country called: Romania"

Summary
>Fifty seven minutes after Helén Ripli survived her disastrous ordeal, her escape vessel is recovered after drifting across the Duna as she slept in drunken stasis. Back in Hungary, nobody believed her story about the "Romanians" in the region Transylvania. After the "Company" orders the colony in Transylvania to investigate, however, all communication with the colony is lost. The Company enlists Ripli to aid a team of tough, rugged betyár fighters on a rescue mission to the now partially civilized region to find out if there are Romanians or survivors. As the mission unfolds, Ripli will be forced to come to grips with her worst nightmare, but even as she does, she finds that the worst is yet to come.

"The last solution: Romania"

Summary:
>Despite the efforts of Ripli and the betyár warriors in the film "The country called: Romania", a little Romanian infiltrates the ship. It accidentally launches the escape boat and they all end up at the shores of a nearby island. Ripli finds herself in a prison colony peopled by an Eastern Orthodox cult composed of former murderers, corrupt politicians, gamblers, folk musicians, illegal immigrants and rapists. Meanwhile, the Romanian has managed to grow into a new and deadly form, and is picking off the weaponless prisoners. Ripley soon discovers, much to her horror, that the real danger is much more personal...

... she is pregnant... and carries a Romanian Queen!!!

would Ash count as a passenger, or just part of the Nostromo's equipment, though?

Is that a prerequisite for a movie title? Also I'm sure many people could guess what it means...

Here's the 4th, then - for you.

"Romanian: Resurrection"

Summary
>Two hundred years after Helén Ripli died trying to eliminate the Romanian species, they brought her back from blood alcohol samples taken earlier. It took several tries, and un-fortunate failures to get it right, but they weren't interested in Helén Ripli - they wanted the Romanian inside her; and they got it, but they got more than they bargained for. When the Romanians grew smart, they broke out of their enclosures. When the crew tried to run, they killed them. And when the Queen's secret was revealed, it exposed a bizare DNA mix-up that left both Ripli and the queen's genetics intertwined; giving light to a new Romanian that could spell certain doom for Earth.
