>>82718320
That's not true. Most people loved the mythos Ridley, The first version of your script before Lindolf fucked it up was great. You gave us no Engineers and Retards, but the RETARDS IN PROMETHEUS were world class GENIUSES compared to the fucking idiots in Covenant.

Oh shut up already. Go jizz on your baby Groot.

>>82719613
IN many countries it came out on the 11th
>>
>>82719613
It was out in UK on thursday, I saw it yesterday. I rated Prometheus 1/10 because it was the single worst cinema experience of my life. Using that as a guideline, Covenant is maybe a 3/10

It was boring at times, crew did stupid shit, dialogue seemed forced and strange at times (i'm a man of god these scientists don't trust me, help me finger the holes walter, etc), cgi looked very bad in some places but good in others. It felt very similar to Prometheus with attempts to fix what people didn't like, but failing
>>
why does Ridley Scott hate America?
>>
Why was Noomi Rapace in the credits?
>>
It really was. The characters were even dumber and the plot ten times as predictable. The CG was absolutely abominable at times as well.

That being said I liked Prometheus, and wasn't happy about how they resolved that in this movie (David kills Shaw and the Engineers on the planet they land on).
>>
>>82720474
wait you just made me realise something.

Doesn't David say something along the lines of "blow on a calf's nose and he'll be with you for life"?

Maybe that's why he's so fixated on blowing Walter's flute.
>>
>>82722456
>Maybe that's why he's so fixated on blowing Walter's flute.

But Walter played David's flute, there was no blowing involved. Just a bit of kissing
>>
>>82722566
he blew for Walter first. then Walter blew back while David fingered him.
>>
>>82722425
I agree, turning David into a mad scientist villain makes the ending of Prometheus seem completely innefectual. Elizabeth Shaw could've played more of a role than being a Xeno surrogate.
>>
>>82717764
Why were these movies made in the first place?

The horror element stemmed from the unknown. Why make three movies giving a halfassed explanation to somthing no one asked?

Is this a jew cashgrab?
>>
>>82718229
Actually it is te truth.
At least prometheus had character development.
Here it's just stupid people being chased by cgi xenos.
>>
>>82718575
The first version of prometheus was trash, lindeloff gave it shape but Riddley wasnt attentive of it and we had fucking retarded scientists.

This whole deal was supposed to be about the space jokeys? Not your shitty xenomorph wankery. You ailly pleb.

Oh btw if you didnt like the retarded people in prometheus then get ready for a feast of retarded people.

He's fucking senile, I fucking bet. The Martian was an absolute abortion as was this. That scene with the first proto-alien in this movie fucking hell I had the Benny Hill music going on in my head during it.

And he just fucking kills off Shaw like it's fucking nothing even though we spent an entire movie watching her desperately stay alive and be by the most compelling character in this current series of movies. Fucking Danny McBride of all fucking people fucking hell I mean Jesus fucking Christ you let him live but not Noomi get fucked Ridley.

>>82724331
Like >>82724316 said. Imagine your friend had just been murdered by an alien, her head floating in the water right infront of you. You then kill the alien and the strange android (who you just met in the middle of the galaxy 5 minutes ago) loses his temper and shouts at you. He showed anger at the alien dying, but zero emotion for the human.

Would you then follow the android to his secret lab where he grows the aliens? Would you then follow him into the dark cellar when he says "would you like to see my successes"? Would you then stick your head into the egg after all that? Holy shit it was stupid.

The dialogue was even making it obvious. David said something like "all this time I've been trying to perfect it, waiting...." then the captain replies with "waiting for what". I fully expected David to say "YOU". I'm betting he did at one point but they cut it out because it was so fucking predictable

He was pointing that gun at David 30 seconds earlier, he clearly already did not trust him. That's before following him to the lab then the spooky basement

>>82723295
Are you okay, anon?
>>
>>82724739
but David was going to tell him "the truth" or whatever. maybe he thought the egg had an iPad in it with a video explaning everything.
>>
>>82724331
he saw david with the neomorph and the corpse of one of his subordinates
that should have been enough reason to not trust david

What if the Prometheus trilogy ended with David getting abducted by Predators and forced to give up all his research and specimens and create more for their hunt worlds?

I dunno, I'm just thinking of something that might make this mess of a series at least a little worthwhile in the end.

You land on a planet.
There is lots of vegetation.
There is lots of water.
Air is breathable.
But you notice there are no animals whatsoever.

Do you:
a. Go outside of the ship on an adventure like a retard?
b. Fortify ship, plug all entrances, equip 3 layers of armor, outfit yourself with enough weapons to start WW3, put all ship sensors on overdrive, release as many drones as you can to survey the planet while you are comfy and armed to the teeth in a temporary fort till you figure out what the fuck is going on with no animal presence in such a lush world?

I'd personally go for b.

>>82717764
Pissssssssss

>>82724813
but the xenomorph pretty clearly killed the girl. David trying to communicate with it still wouldn't make him a threat to the Captain.
>>
>>82724369
The fact that James Cameron and Sigourney Weaver where onboard plus the revised story in wich Newt and Hicks lived is enough for me. But nooooooooooo Ridley had to have his albino Jesus and black goo meme.
>>
And why the fuck did she park the ship 10km away from the location of the signal? It reminded me of the opening of rogue one where they land on the farm and walk for 10 minutes to the house for absolutely no reason

So at the end David leaves on the covenant right? But it's only through his experiments that the xenomorph is eventually created, the eggs that we see in alien are created. The ship in Alien on LV-426 is an engineer ship though. So David must then randomly come across another engineer ship since he left the one on the engineers homeworld behind, unless he decides to go back.
>>
>>82729449
the eggs are still unexplained. but if they exist in Prometheus, before David even sees one, he didn't create them.

It's fucking stupid. Basically added nothing to the overall continuity of the story except a repeat of the xenomorph chomping on people like every other alien movie.

>Maybe that's why he's so fixated on blowing Walter's flute.
You raise a good point. Also, I like the fan theory that David isn't the one who survived but it was actually Walter who got brainwashed by David while David is still on the Engineers planet doing some more shit
>>
>>82729514
>What about the Deacon in Prometheus isn't that a Xeno?
Yeah and David is responsible for creating the Squid thing that he inserted inside Shaw's bf who then banged Shaw and she got pregnant with it.

Then the Squid mated with the Engineer and WALA the Deacon was born.

>tfw we will never get the original idea for the sequel which had David and Shaw landing together on the Engineer planet as they together find out more truth about the creation of human race
I would have preferred this instead of this pathetic sequel that was just an ALIENS KILLING EVERYONE with no backstory at all of the Engineers cos David is so evil that he had to kill them all

But apparently Ridley now is making another movie set in between Prometheus and Covenant but he still done fucked up big time with killing Shaw who to me could have been an amazing new female lead that we could have watched her grow as a person from movie to movie just like we did with Ripley.

WHY CAN'T WE HAVE NICE THINGS?

>>82724474
You're shitting me. I can tell the movie is bad, but characters stupider than the ones in Prometheus is hard to even fathom.

>>82730771
>That guy going up to David's egg chamber after finding out that David is responsible for murdering Shaw and murdering every single Engineer is as stupid as a British Soldier stumbling across the gas chambers and Hitler is in the doorway saying "Go in, I assure you it is safe in there"

This is a sequel to a movie where they land on a planet and are surprised by a fuckhueg storm DESPITE JUST HAVING FLOWN IN FROM SPACE.

It's like some alien landing on earth and going, oh wow, didn't notice those clouds there.

Well there was that one guy who was scared of empty hallways but not scared enough to not pet the alien snek. Or that one guy with the mapping tool that got lost. Or the captain that decided to go get some bad pusay when he still had guys trapped inside the structure. Or that woman that can only run in a straight line.

I mean, a guy trying to kiss Freddy Krueger is bad but you gotta up your game to beat Prometheus.

But this was literally one of the only good scenes of the movie despite it lasting less than a minute.

MORE DAVID, MORE ENGINEERS AND LESS ALIENS KILLING PEOPLE!

That's what I would have preferred.

Also I hated how this was done as a quick flashback

>DUDE SUICIDE SQUAD STYLE OF EDITING LMAO

HOW could Ridley give us literally not one trace of backstory of this planet that the Engineers live on and nothing answered about the creation of humans or the theory that was brought up in Prometheus that Jesus could have been an Engineer? NOTHING. That is just so poor...

Well if you watch the Prometheus making of, Ridley goes on a talk about how he liked to imagine that Jesus was an Engineer and he liked the Ancient Aliens theory hence he had a lot of that in Prometheus so WHY did he abandon all this in Covenant?

prometheus is one of my favorite sci fi films. its not perfect...i suppose if you insist...but i love every single minute of that movie. its probably a top 10 movie for me (sci-fi). Id have to think about it but it could end up my 6th or 7th sci fi movie.

so im going to probably like this follow up too.

When Prometheus come people is like:

>Buu, where are the Aliens, I don't want this big bald guy.

When Covenant come, people is like:

You people don't know a shit what you wants.

I DID WANT THE DEACON TO BE SEEN IN THE SEQUEL BUT I MAINLY WANTED MORE ENGINEERS NOT WHAT WE GOT WITH JUST A GENERIC ALIEN MOVIE WITH CHARACTERS THAT I DON'T GIVE A SHIT ABOUT.

SHAW IS THE ONE I REALLY CARED FOR AND RIDLEY FUCKED HER UP

good news for you, Ridley wants to make a real sequel of Prometheus and prequel of Covenant. and many sequel of Covenant to link in some point with the first Alien movie.

Coming from someone who loved Suicide Squad, Alien: Covenant REALLY PISSES me off because it fails to answer the questions that Prometheus opened and I hated most of the characters in Covenant and gave no shits about them.

It was entirely Ridleys fault tho. Hes proven to be one of the best directors alive when he has a good script to work with but damn was this just really underwhelming. Him and Malick need to have an intervention.

Did anyone else think for a second that the Alien on the covenant at the end was just a dream sequence? It seemed so schlocky and dumb and then they show whatsherface waking up, I figured she would have just had a bad dream from the traumatic experience, a la Aliens. But no, it turned out to be real and somewhat strange given that guy was only facehugged for a second.

Okay so the Engineers had Earth as their destination on their ship in Prometheus. Does that mean they were planning to wipe out humans so David did Earth a father by killing them or am I missing something

If Ridley Scott doesn't release an extended cut to this then there is something seriously wrong with him.

An extended cut with all the deleted scenes

This at least will make the movie feel more like an actual feature and not just a generic Hollywood Alien killing movie

Covenant didn't really have any Prometheus tier character idiocy to create events, the main things were:

>not wearing spacesuits/body suits on an alien world

>Krudup's character's actions were the only thing debatable, but keep in mind none of the crew knew about aliens the way the audience did so who would have expected a facehugger. Fassbender's character even comments about how curiosity kills the cat as he has shown him plenty of interesting things he has discovered/manufactured before leading him to the Alien pod. Krudup's character always feels in control since he has a rifle pointed at David the entire time.

I guess the major factor is they trusted David, even when it was somewhat clear he was a bit strange and that neither McBride or Waterston's characters checked that it was David or Walter before returning to hypersleep. I still thought that although the twist that it was David was obvious, it was handled quite brilliantly.

And McBride's character bringing the Covenant into a dangerous situation (storm), which I think was just a red herring(?) as nothing came of it.

Is Ridley making these out of spite now?

wow what a plot twist after that fight with David & other good robot
never would've guessed that'd happen such an epic twist great writing
movie was ok characters are extremely dumb, haven't seen prometheus so can't really say much on the lore part

Friendly reminder than Michael Fassbender isn't some brilliant actor and plays the same character in everything.
