Well, now that over 100 reviews are up I think it's safe to say Alien: Covenant is going to be certified fresh. The critical consensus seems to be it's flawed but better than Prometheus. Is it better than Prometheus, /tv/?
>>
>>82710581
Yes, but that's not saying much.

I would say only bother watching it if you see it in IMAX. There's not really much there besides the visuals.
>>
>>82710581
>Is it better than Prometheus, /tv/?

Yes but I liked Prometheus anyway
I think 6.3 average rating is about right, most people wont find this anything new but its a solidly entertaining sci- fi movie.
>>
>>82710581
Who gives a shit about RT? It's a jewish invention made to control a narrative that lets Hollywood keep making remakes, reboots and sequels.
>>
>>82710820
I'm just using it to show that most critics like Alien: Covenant.
>>
Scores literally don't matter. Only the money does. Prometheus made a lot of money despite not having Zeno action, so I imagine Covenant does just as well if not better.
>>
>>82710581

Get out legitimately had more tension than this movie.
>>
worst Alien movie i ever seen, Premetheus is godlike compared to this piece of trash
>>
>>82711095
>Alien: Resurrection
>Alien vs. Predator
>Alien vs. Predator: Requiem
Come on, it can't possibly be worse than those pieces of trash.
>>
>>82710644
nigga what? the visuals are fucking shit. Prometheus was fucking gorgeous, this is a bunch of CGI over a landscape
>>
>>82711095
Take it you've never seen the now dated jumpscare flick, Alien?

This is some really awful bait. The original Alien is a masterpiece that has aged like wine. Even James Cameron fanboys who think Aliens is better will admit that Alien is good.
>>
>>82711128
How do people have opinions like this? Prometheus was CGI over landscape too. did we watch different movies?
>>
>>82711591
Prometheus looked really alien. Covenant looked like Earth.
>>
Alien: Isolation is the 3rd best Alien movie, prove me wrong.
>>
>>82711623
>planetoid looks like planetoid
>life sustaining planet looks like life sustaining planet.
what's the problim?

the fucking problem is that Alien is supposed to be about the dangers of what wanders in space and everything we don't know. Aesthetics should be alien-like, not remind us of Earth. It takes away from the atmosphere and makes it far less scary
>>
>>82710581
Not only is it worse than Prometheus, it is worse than 3, Resurrection and AvP1. It was better than AvPR, but that's like saying cow shit is better than horse shit.
>>
>>82710742
> cgi aliens chasing crew duh

Prometheus was eye candy and was master crafted, had also good actors.
Covenant was "le progressive" bullshit.
>>
cgi alien is better than the floppy costumes in Aliens
>>
I hated how the whole plot hinged on everyone being complete retards.
>>
Prometheus has a 72 on the tomato meter and a fucking 6.9 score so according to RT Prometheus is actually considered better overall rating wise
>>
>>82710581

>Average Rating: 6.3
>>
>>82710581

Prometheus is the better movie
Covenant is the better flick
>>
>>82710581
So is Ghostbusters

RT score doesn't mean shit
>>
>>82711688
Well, it's a pretty shitty game, so if that's true, video games have now become generally more better than movies. Prove me wrong.
>>
>>82710581
>75%
>6.3/10
Holy shit just shut that shit down, both are twice what they should be
>>
>>82710581
>Alien > Aliens > POWER GAP > Covenant > Alien 3 > Prometheus > Resurrection
>>
>>82711095
>worse then Alien 3

I don't think it's possible to be that boring of a sci-fi movie
>>
>>82710581
ahahahaha how can the lorefags possibly ever recover from this?
>>
>>82710581
It's fresh because there's a couple of gays on a mission that they don't belong in.
>>
>>82714421

Their gayness was almost completely cut from the movie though

Someone link me to that mark kermode thread from yesterday

>>82714409
probably by giving it a pass?

And niggers and a strong woman that need no man
>>
>>82710820
kill yourself already
>>
>>82710581
Who cares what some faggots think about it?
Do you let everyone else dictate your opinion?
I thought it was garbage, and that the franchise has been butchered, so stick that where the sun doesnt shine, shill.
