>>82705215
I wish there was a directors cut of Prometheus where we are just watching David walk around the room doing shit while watching Lawrence of Arabia

Ridley Scott has gone full Lucas - he subconsciously hates the fact that the original Alien was great because how good Dan O'Bannon's script was, and how visual artists that O’Bannon brought over from Dark Star and Dune along with Giger made it so iconic. He resents that and now tries to undo his legacy by making Alien about some bullshit search of life meaning mental masturbation, instead of what O'Bannon started doing with Dark Star.

how fucking transparent and embarrasing

How do you know this?
Also does he really need a plan, its pretty blatantly established that he has a God complex and he wants to destroy humans with his own creation.
He sees himself the shaper of the next step of evolution.

Anyway the movie was well made and very entertaining. However im having more fun watching all the Alien autists crap their pants over how the alien was made.

>>82705399
Thats a rip off of John and his murderer Yoko

Of course he doesn't have a plan. He never had a plan. In Prometheus he was actuating Weyland's plan. Now he's off the map, just a crazy robot lurching from one decision to the next without imperative.

I think it's great.

Daily reminder that now Lance Henricksen is retconned out of being android Bishop, Michael Bishop II and Charles Bishop Weyland.

All because of Ridley's lucasesque hateboner for all things Alien that do not come from him only. Lance Henricksen is 77 now, and will probably die never appearing in one of his most iconic roles again.

If you think even civilians would make the same stupid decisions these characters make (like not wearing full body suits when trekking an alien ecosystem or bringing a crewman who's puking blood and bile back on the ship), maybe just stick to capeshit.

It's a refreshing direction. Aliens = space marines = heroes = quips = capeshit. Aliens are no longer scary, so why make a movie that's been done to death?

Scott is giving us the films we didn't know we wanted. And maybe he will come back full circle and make a traditional Alien film for his finale.

good question. why did ridley scott do that?

>>82705215
Given how most of the newer characters are shit, I actively rooted for David to kill them. With the exception of Shaw, her getting facehugged off screen and dying at some point is shit. I know David's a nutbag,
but I didn't think he'd actually do anything to her considering she re-attached his fucking head.

>>82706258

What about the deacon in Prometheus? Isn't that a Xeno?

>>82705546

>>82705645
how the fuck is it "refreshing"?

it's the same shit. strong female lead, the same old alien scare cliches, corrupted android. filled with nods to the viewer from the original films. every movie has a new crew going to a planet with the aliens on, making the same mistakes and getting massacred with one or two survivors. it's about as formulaic as it gets, throwing a few vague philosphical lines in there isn't a significant change. the ending action sequence was about as "capeshit" as it gets, and david's whole character is literally just reusing quips from films and books he's consumed

I get the sense you're just being contrarian/baiting for the sake of it, but I'd like to hear specifically what you think is refreshing and new about this, given that most of the potentially refreshing and new things from prometheus were given up on completely

>>82706276

>Charles Bishop was shit and it was never canon

Agreed, but still Bishop I and Bishop II were the entrenched part of the universe, and now Ridley basically fucked Lance Henricksen out his legacy too.

>>82706306

>you don't have to overthink it
>observing what is happening is "overthinking"

Ok friendo it's not like Scott publicly said how mad he is at Cameron and everyone else but him doing Alien related things or anything

>>82706331
Couldn't have said it better myself.

THE ENTIRE REASON they didn't have traditional xenos and Alien eggs in Prometheus was because they'd been done to death for 35 fucking years.

The alien egg is now a jack in the box. We know what's going to happen and only a fucking child gets excited by it but that's who they made this piece of shit for.

>>82705645
>giving us the films we didn't know we wanted
Who wanted Prometheus or this shitpile?

>>82706500
yep, and he admitted himself that he only put the xenomorphs in this movie as fanservice due to the negative response to prometheus. given how much the xenomorphs were in this movie, and the fact it ended up having "alien" in the title which he made a point not to do with prometheus, it's kinda hard to think this had any integrity whatsoever.

too bad he didn't think about addressing the other more pressing complaints people had about prometheus

He has as much ambition as Weyland . That's where it comes from and why he's like that.

>>82706486
I know right. The queen alien finale in Aliens is one of the greatest things to happen to this franchise. Better than anything Ridley Scott has come up with since the original movie.

>>82705935
That was just fucking weird.

If you need to point to anything to show Ridley has lost his touch it's how fucking badly he concealed that "twist". There is not any point that he makes the audience believe it's NOT David and it goes on for like 20 minutes then the reveal happens like it's a shock.

>>82705354
you're thinking about it too much.

in reality he's just not that good a director or at least can't fulfil all the roles everyone wants him to meet

>>82705708
Time to climb that same bridge your brother did Ridley.

>>82705738
Except that is basically what happens.

besides I did hear an interview with ridley the other day, and iirc cameron's movie was the one sequel he actually liked (which is hardly an unpopular opinion)

the guy's just lost his touch

How did Walter lose to David?

Isn't he an upgrade?

>Scott told Fox Filmed Entertainment co-chairman Tom Rothman that he wished to revisit the territory that been under his skin since he was passed over for 1986's Aliens, the sequel that propelled James Cameron's career. "I was really pissed off, frankly," he says about the old wound.

Just saying. As for Blade Runner, maybe he doesn't have as much control over it as he does with Alien.

This game should be considered cannon. It's better than anything that came after Aliens.

>>82706755
how good is it? haven't played vidya in years but after going through the alien movies again this week I was considering getting a console just to play it

>>82706346

I only liked the chick who blew up the spaceship fighting the alien. It was great to see a character freak out and lock the fucking door on the person infected by aliens. Ridley's failure to use the character after making us like her was one of many mistakes.

>>82706813
Same way EVERYTHING happens in this movie which doesn't make sense.

It happens off screen

>>82706813

It happened off-screen. Yes, really.

any webms of the big titted jewess cleaning herself? best scene in the movie

>>82706995

The gameplay is barely a step above a walking simulator, but the worldbuilding, characters and the perfect tone and atmosphere of the original are beyond dank. I'm loving it.

>>82706893
True but it could have been avoided I think if this movie had followed on from Prometheus kind of as a spin off from Alien rather than trying to tie itself back into the series again.

>>82707065
You're right, but then you'd have tons of fanboys screaming "WHERE'S MUH ALIUMS???"

>>82706971

And Prometheus ended with an exciting mythic ending (the heroes about to storm heaven), whereas Covenant ends with a standard horror-movie beat which adds nothing, disappointing in a movie with philosophic pretensions.

>>82706924
"Ripley surrogate #4" survived while the rest of the crew were wiped out with the exception of 1 guy.

Yes?

So basically it's the same shit that anon said it was and you're hung up on semantics like an autist.

>>82706995
It's a pretty good first person stealth horror game. Treats the lore pretty well, with an art style to match the old tech present in the original film. The Alien AI is mostly unscripted and fucks with you throughout the levels, and you've got human enemies that you can stealth past, fight or use as diversions for the xeno to fuck up. There's also cheap malfunctioning androids that will try to strangle you. It's main problem is that there is very little variety in gameplay, and the game itself is long, so sneaking past xenos starts to get a bit tedious past the halfway mark.

>>82706594

This is a common phenomenon these days. Everyting's about money. Money, money, people run after nothing but profit, which results in these "choose your own adventure"-stories, where the audience decides what's put in the work by majority vote. Because that's the money-making formula.

But an average movie-goer isn't a filmmaker. They can't tell how incorporating their wishes will reflect on the final product. So it shouldn't come as a surprise to anyone that the result is and will always be shit.

Dude, what did you expect? It by the guy who thought it was a good idea to kill Charlize Theron with a freakin' Looney Tune-tier gag.

>>82706306
Much like the real explanation of David is that he has a broken brain, the real explanation of Scott is that he's gone senile.

>>82707048
They cashed in on "hide from the monsters" games like Amnesia and such and I think one of the creators of those games came out and said why he thought the game didn't really succeed as much as it could've BUT yeah it's still pretty good.

Also they managed to match the tech of the the first movie while Ridley Scott himself is using fucking Tony Stark 3D holographic maps

>>82707120
Agreed.

I like Noomi Rapace so maybe I'm biased but for all the ways Prometheus fucked up I loved the way it ended with Shaw continuing to search for answers rather than going home even though nobody will ever know what she learns. David doesn't understand that and she tells him it's because she's human and he's just a robot.

If that was what this movie was about, something totally different then it wouldn't have the problems with lore or with being a derivative piece of shit. But no we'll kill Shaw off screen and have David plan to infect a colony which we all know never fucking happens so it has no weight whatsoever.

>>82707229
the thing is, the martian was a real crowdpleaser. I mean, it was reddit: the movie, but it was coherent. it's easy to see what he was going for. covenant is a clusterfuck that doesn't make sense for people who liked prometheus or people who hated it.

>>82707176
The length of the game is it's biggest downfall.

Games like Amnesia or Pneumonia or whatever are over in 5 hours or so. This took the same basic gameplay and stretched it to 2 or 3x that so it's fucking boring by the end.

Look at the Promethetus cast, white blonde/blue eyed Vickers = evil, white blonde/blue eyed android = evil, the good guys are all ethnically darker.

It's at 75% now, probably it will drop down to ~70% with some reviews still trickling in.

This was likely one where they greased the reviewers quite well to give it a somewhat positive review which RT can call FRESH, the review trajectory here is remarkably similar to that of 'Beauty and the Beast' which ended up at 71%.

There is a common perception that children with autism have difficulty forming social attachments. This belief can shape a child's medical treatment, education and social interactions. Recent studies have shed new light on the phenomenon, suggesting that children with autism may not have as much difficulty with attachment behaviors as previously believed, and that the child's early relationships, particularly the maternal relationship, has a strong impact on whether or not the child will form secure attachments later in life.
Misconceptions

The third edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, published by the American Psychiatric association, described autism as "failure to develop normal attachment behavior." Although that definition has been changed in later editions of the manual, it indicates how widespread the belief was that autism meant poor social attachment. Studies done in the 1980s and later started to present a different picture of autism, demonstrating that children with the disorder formed attachments, often secure attachments, with their caregivers.
Theory

Attachment behavior theory states that babies become attached to their caregivers during the first year. This attachment provides security in their world, and the child becomes upset if the bond is threatened by separation or other factors. Attachment behavior occurs regardless of the quality of the baby's care; neglected or abused children still feel attached to their caregivers. Children who receive care that meets their needs form secure attachments. Children who receive poor quality care form insecure attachments.

Ridley Scott has NEVER been a good director. He's got 3 early films with a strong eye for visuals and strong scripts, then his quality varies so wildly that his successes look more like flukes, if they ever even happen.

>>82708571

>>82708527
Beauty and the Beast was that uncanny disney achievement of being a definitely bad film but still perfectly watchable and at times almost fun, so everyone just says it was fine

Ridley trying to pretend for cred that Giger's spirit is still with this mishappen franchise.

I kinda feel cheated by the ending. David got away with too much.

I was hoping Walter destroyed him but started to see things from David's perspective and had a slight change of heart and smuggled one alien embryo on board or something.

I'm really just hoping to see another Alien movie with Katherine Watertson. I really love the sensitive side she gives to the "badass" characters like she isn't portraying a cliche strong woman.

I don't even know if David replaced Walter. David's face was covered in scars and android blood from getting the shit beaten out of him, while Walter (and the one that got on the ship) only had the one scar on the side of its face.

>Did they make Fassy look like Bowie

Nigger, they styled him after Peter O' Toole, it's actually a plot point in Prometheus.

I imagine there's a cam rip of this out there...anyone got a link? I can't find one that isn't dogshit or malware.

>>82712839
Yeah but Colonial Marines isn't so closely tied to major movie characters and plots.

I didn't play CM, but my understanding is that it's "Just another Bughunt™" in the grand scale of things. Meanwhile Isolation's protagonist is Ripley's daughter and even has DLC with the cast of the first movie and scenarios based on the events of the film where you play AS Ripley herself.

>>82713112
CM changed it so that Hicks is still alivve

>>82713208
I guess that's true, but I think that's just a financial move. Now if they want to use Hicks at some point in a later film for some reason, they can point to CM.

>>82713208
And that the Hadley's Hope colony somehow survived in a semi-functional manner after being the ground zero for a 40MT nuclear blast. That game was retarded.

>>82713273

it's retarded pandering to the kind of person who needs Predators to exist in the same "universe" and also refers to them as "Yautja".

>>82713332
>>82713378
Two things because Devil's Advocate™

It's space age shit. It's probably designed to endure some incredible stuff. Let's not get mad about it surviving the blast. Space Age tech is nuke resistant.

Secondly, don't you think they wanted to maybe make a franchise out of Colonial Marines? Hicks would be the most marketable protagonist. The game might fail or succeed based on something like that.

So what power source is David running on so he can maintain operational condition for all those years?

>>82713467
He eats his own robot poop

>>82713429
Except the devs actually did offer a explanation for how it survived, and it has nothing to do with the facility being that tough. According to them, it was a "vertical explosion", which totally goes against what Bishop says (30km radius, his words) and the visuals in the movie.

Again, everything related to Colonia Marines was retardation.

>>82713467
The synthetics have rechargable batteries. I guess David found a way to hook his to a power source in the Engineer ship.

>>82713634
Oh.

Fair enough. I was only trying to provide a dissenting voice.

Hicks was already alive in Dark Horse comics, which weren't in the AvP universe. Just saying.

So I have some things that I liked
I disliked pretty much everything else so don't assume that I like the movie
I really loved the design of the spacesuits they use at the end, they look like the suits the russians use for launching into space and it's really pretty
McBride looks like a fucking slug in it though, he's just chin all the way down to the collar
I liked PART of the designs
like, the outfits they wear look like what a colonist would wear if we, today, decided to colonise some place that appeared on earth
I like it
I hate the fucking stupid gay cunt holographic displays though
Fassbender was great and made my peepee go dokidoki
some bad things now which is a non inclusive list
the fucking embryos
at the start of the movie walter removes a fucked embryo from the second tray from the floor, okay
and at the end of the movie when david pukes up the facehugger embryos, the human embryos are magically back
MOTHER said that going closer than 80km to the storm would fuck shit up, but literally nothing happens that fucks up the ship
fucking mcbride goes out in a tiny little barely protected cargo lifter and has ZERO damage from anything other than his bad driving
when they crunch the xenomorph with the claw, you can see the acid eating through the claw
then they just fucking pull the claw back onto the cargo shuttle and it's suddenly not eating through shit even though the claw isn't thick enough to absorb the acid
the captain was a stupid cunt who trusted david suddenly for no fucking reason
why was his religion brought up
it was even worse than prometheus, it was just "we need ur faith cappn ;~;" and that was it
the british security guy was gay for the dorf looking guy, apparently
why was this included
the CG for the burning cryopod was genuinely fucking awful
why didn't MOTHER turn up the volume on the alarm system so it would be louder than the music
she has microphones everywhere so she would be able to hear that the music was drowning it out

>>82717420

Isolation has better story, setting and characters. It's only problem is the pacing but even at that it is miles better than nu-Alien flicks.

>>82705215
I love it, David is by far the best character in the Alien franchise. Glad Ridley kept him on after Prometheus since he was literally the only good thing in that movie other than the actual direction/art.

>>82717229
>Studio execs greenlit the comics
emmm no, that's not how it works you dumbass.

Studio's grant licenses. Dark Horse produces shit with their licenses.
Games & and comics are made with such products until some idiot at fox tought it would be a good idea to make an AVP with the most edgelord team.
This was produced by nerd autism of faggots that tought the Xenomorph skull at the end of Predator 2 meant they where in the same universe rather than a fucking easter egg.

Fucking plebs like you have no clue how the movie industry work

>>82717526

This particular one is not only on par, but is better than Prometheus and Covenant, since it was made and written by artists and writers who actually care about Alien as opposed to out of touch old man Ridley. No amount of you getting triggered about will reverse the fact.

>>82706995

well it happened for something. Alien 3 was a fucking mess and killed the characters that we like. Whilst Alien 4 was disgusting and wierd crap.

>>82705215
it would of been better to reveal that the alien was a regular alien that the engeneers discovered or made but the engineers thought it so impressive that they tried to mimic and replicate its dna to recreate it for what ever purpose, and thus we can keep the lore around the first two with out harming anything the mystry can still remain it can stil be its own creature but have a small mention how the engeineers encountered this life form and wanted to maniuplate it for certain purpose and resulted in the goo and then the eggs

Not really, she just had shitty lines here and there to reflect that riddley didnt know what he wanted with the movie.

I can tell you are just on the fucking normie bandwaggon to hate prometheus. Yes it had a shit ton of flaws in writting and screenplay but Shaw was not one of the awful things. That at least is clear when people sympathize with her character and get upset at her being offed from the movie.

However David sure recieved some retarded lines in this new movie.

Not even joking, AVP has better lore than this.

A human-made android is responsible for the xenomorph? Even if the execution in the movie is perfect, it's just stupid. The whole mystique of the alien is that isn't some purpose-build killing machine that multiple alien species have feared/worshipped. It being created a few decades before the original movie ruins it.

The xenomorphs existed way before David bred them as they were the ones who killed the engineers on the Prometheus planet

Shaw and co speculate it was a outbreak of something but everything you see adds up to a xeno massacre. Also the not xeno/deacon at the end which results from the black goo basically confirms it

>>82720034
Then again Shitley Scatt literally says:
>"The engineers didn't make it(Alien), you know - David did"

This was in Prometheus. The Engineers were at least aware of some form of xeno.

No, that was a black goo pandemic kind of thing with mutations and shit

Could have been any evolution strain thing from the goo, not the actual Xenomorph we all know

but>>82719672
says, it's implied that the recipe existed to force evolution into the armored black giger xenomorph, just not heavily implied, and not well written either.

Someone give me a summary of the movie

>>82720007
It's just that I kind of question any of the other movies' place in continuity now. The original movie is... Well, it's a sacred piece of movie, sci-fi and horror history and it's director is once again in charge, so of course that still counts. But the other ones?

I'm not even sure Aliens make sense with Prometheus and Covenant.

>>82720182
some form of xeno yes, like the one that came out of the engineer at the end, but not the xenomorph we know

>>82720298

>I'm not even sure Aliens make sense with Prometheus and Covenant.

Just exclude ithem from your head canon

>>82720034
I think he means the black xeno we all know from Alien.

The black goo can turn any life form into a mutated monster.

But to get the black xeno we all know you need different ingredients, and humans are one of them.

The Engineers were probably killed by a white squid xeno or something

>>82705708
You actually made a really decent point, everyone else is just insulting you now.

>>82720298
How does it not make sense? Are they on LV-426 in Alien: Covenant?

Queen, I question the Queen's plausibility. Prometheus implied a different life cycle and the original intention in the original was to have the Xenos morph living tissue into eggs.

oh gosh it's so awful that DAVID CREATES THE XENOMORPH. what a shame, disrespecting the audience like that. sounds like everyone should save their money and experience a REAL Cinematic™ Universe™ instead of one where DAVID CREATES THE XENOMORPH!

>>82720650
That cut still kills off all the other survivors in the opening credits, still has meaningless religious shit, still has the annoying prisoners, still relies on questionable continuity and is still hard to watch in one sitting.

Prometheus at least has the suspense factor of not really knowing where it was going.

>>82708068
Hope you didnt get too attached to daniels and tenesee in this movie as well anon, Theres a reason David only brought 2 embryos

>>82720760
Awhile relaxing, Demian Bichir character was unknowingly infected with a xenomorph in his chest

The movie doesn't know where it is going either

That's no suspense to ANYONE

You can catch up with this fact halfway into the movie when you realize it's got the Lost complex and the hamfist of death

Thank you very much anon. Weird how David was turned into pretty much the main character for these movies.

so this whole movie retcons pretty much everything except Alien. Fucking hell, Ridley...

>>82721355
How so?

>>82721348
>>82721355
Yeah

I forgot to mention that David was the one that killed Shaw in his quest for curiosity and shows respect for her and even love yet he's still a dick since he still experimented on her

So the xeno eggs we know may have been created from Shaw's womb, as it's implied in some engineer parchments that depicts how to do so with black goo, for unknown purposes.

>>82721592
we don't know how the eggs got there. presumably they can only be laid by a queen. Maybe the Engineers were storing them there like a pantry.

>>82707793
>nu-/pol/ is just a bunch of SJW's but they get triggered about things that through great strides of mental gymnastics offend white people and heterosexuality instead

psychic vampires infect Weyland to build Prometheus after seeing his creation, David, come to life.

>>82721791
Either the Queen made em, assuming a Queen is even canon now, or the Engineers made it but it can't be both. This movie makes it seem like David made em.

>>82705464
In your dreams maybe.
