No one else was looking forward to a quick-thinking, charismatic and conflicted (but NON-psychopathic) David who would want to help Shaw get the answers she wanted while also discovering more about himself and what it means to exist?

No one thought his betrayal of Shaw and descent into memory degradation, malfunctioning god complex and moustache-twirling villainy basically undid and rewrote all his character development from the last movie?

Seriously, who thought this was a good idea?

I felt the same way when the blond chick was crushed in Prom. Could of been an uber comfy survival movie with an uptight commander, an badass scientist, and a their slightly crazy robot pal. But They aren't trying to make a comfy sitcom. Its a horror movie meant to underline how cold and uncaring the universe is.

Did you even watch Prometheus? David was just as much a psychopath.

David being evil is retarded. He was crazy in Prometheus and got people hurt but it was due to his curiosity about the black goo, not just wanting to kill. David in Covenant decides to genocide an entire species for literally no reason at all.

His actions in Prometheus could be looked at as experimental shit he did on Wayland's behalf.

>>83541389
Although Prometheus did not do a great job of developing and explaining David's motives through exposition, it shouldn't be that hard to figure out. He was always struggling with being considered less than alive. Hell, the entire opening of the movie is him watching films, and playing games, something a "robot" should have no need to do. If anything, Covenant's explanation of David's need to create make his motives more congruent.

I hate it when people are this fucking stupid. It's like you didn't watch the movie, then read the synopsis on Wikipedia and decided to shitpost anyway.

David going psychotic is not character development. It's not even consistent with what he did in Prometheus because at the time he was just following orders. Real development would've been aligning his goals with Shaw and setting aside the shit that happened earlier to solve a greater mystery.

Him going batshit and god crazy was the result of a malfunction as pointed out by Walter. That's not development. He's just a broken tool now. Like you.

They figured out that the Engineers were heading back to Earth with a shipfull of bioweapons. Shaw even screams something along the lines of "Why do you hate us?" So that is clearly what the characters believe.

Yea, her motivations for going to the home world were pretty silly "I want to find out why they wanted to kill us." David even notes that the reason they want to kill us doesn't matter in Prometheus. Them going for David to goo bomb them to oblivion makes more sense. He seems to have some psychological issues regarding his creator and creation in general. It doesn't seem too far of a leap for him to hate his creator's creator, especially after the whole decapitation thing. Plus, he wiped the slate clean for him to develop the Xenomorphs.
>>
>>83543307
In the AvP stories, the Engineer wanted Earth as a personal vendetta against a specific human who Ruined their shit. They started Geo-forming Earth with their crescent moon ships and black goo until humans killed the fuck out of them.

As retarded as what I'm about to say is, in the original script Jesus was an engineer and was crucified. They pretty much deemed humanity not worth having around after that and were going to black goo bomb.

"We definitely did, and then we thought it was a little too on the nose,” he admits. “But if you look at it as an ‘our children are misbehaving down there’ scenario, there are moments where it looks like we’ve gone out of control, running around with armor and skirts, which of course would be the Roman Empire. And they were given a long run. A thousand years before their disintegration actually started to happen. And you can say, ‘Let’s send down one more of our emissaries to see if he can stop it.’ Guess what? They crucified him."

I don't think Weyland ordered him to stow away the black goo, put black goo in Holloway's drink, and spawn a giant facehugger to facefuck the engineer. He was obviously mentally unstable in Prometheus.
>>
>>83543875
This.
You could tell there were some issues with Weyland from early on in the film. It seemed pretty obvious that David was going to be a villain when he was visably hurt that his father called him soulless on the recording.

Weyland said to do whatever it took so David started experimenting with the goo. Please watch the movie.

So we came to different conclusions regarding David's motives, you believing he was following Weyland's orders, and I believing he was acting on his own devices. My interpretation is consistent with the David of the second film, while your's assumes that he went off the rails and became a sociopath "for reals" this time?

David is consistently sociopathic throughout the two films.

The only difference is he's much more subtle and intelligent about it in Prometheus. In Covenant he's either gone mad or the writing was so shit they didn't try to hide it anymore.

I point towards the writing, 10 years solitary to a robot that doesn't value humanity shouldn't mean anything, he shouldn't go crazy. He should have been far more conniving and subtlehanded in covenant, especially considering his actions in Prometheus.

I'm sure Ridley honestly believes he's breaking new ground with the evil android along with the twin switcheroo plot device. He's literally going completely senile.

He's not just sociopathic, he's malevolent and prone to making terrible decisions. For how intelligent he's supposed to be he seems to share the same Space Fucktard Syndrome that afflicts the rest of the crew as if they're being roleplayed by the people who enjoy Space Station 13.

I haven't seen this new Alien Covenant movie, mostly because I'm horrified that they gave Prometheus 2 a fucking Alien title. Thing is, in Prometheus he is a fucking retard. Oh excuse me while I expose a member of a space ship crew to an aggressive highly powerful and aggressive mutagenic substance outside of a controlled environment and let him gallivant around and do whatever the fuck he wants.

You know, because this research mission's operational security is a non-issue.

>>83545151
Exactly, Weyland told him. Next movie was supposed to be about him moving past that and being a macabre but nonetheless useful android to Shaw. Scott threw that out of the window because audiences and studios demanded more xenomorphs and less mythology.

Covenant is just the waste byproduct.
>>
>>83545155

AVP is bullshit though. It's 100% a franchise cash in and there never should be any canonical connection between the two.

There is no artistry or merit to it, it's the modern day King Kong vs. Godzilla.
>>
>>83545213
Gee maybe because the name of the ship and the name of the film are both a hamhanded as fuck way to compare the idea of the black goo to fire from the story about Prometheus stealing fire from the gods?

Jesus Christ dude how do you not know this?

Did anyone else think Covenant felt really short? I probably zoned out for all of the third act when I realized the actually interesting-for-once continuation of the Prometheus story was abandoned for dumb action schlock.

>>83545241
>AVP is bullshit though. It's 100% a franchise cash in
Meanwhile, its storied history of Aliens and Predators interacting since long before man traveled the stars is both better accepted and more well liked by fans than Prometheus 2. Well done Scott. Well done.

>>83545236
I am so glad I didn't watch the original movie you desrcibed, sounds like shit.
>>
>>83545118
the whole point was David saw himself above all of that. He didn't care if everyone died, his ship was destroyed, and that he was marooned on an alien planet. He was an immortal Android who didn't need humans. He saw his place at the side of the Engineers.
>>
>>83545283
It didn't feel short to me, but the pacing was off. SHTF pretty abruptly once they hit the planet surface, and the tone of the film changed drastically.
>>
>>83545338
>He didn't care if everyone died, his ship was destroyed, and that he was marooned on an alien planet. He was an immortal Android who didn't need humans. He saw his place at the side of the Engineers.
But then his actions directly led to the Engineer's death. By exposing Holloway to the mutagen he indirectly exposed Shaw, and thus the squid monster that came out of her killed his precious Engineer. I mean you would think he would experiment on people in a contained environment but apparently he's an overconfident retard like every other megalomaniac villain.
>>
>>83545241
Eh, I agree there shouldn't be a canonical connection between the movies and the comics. There really isn't a point to preforming the plot gymnastics. But calling the comics KK vs Godzilla is just wrong. Yeah there are a few comics where its just cathartic slaughter. Really though the majority of AvP has nothing to do with A or P. They're just plot points. The comics focus on the human struggle for survival in a brutal fucking universe.

we don't know exactly what happened between Prometheus and Covenant

supposedly the next film in line will be about those events (if it gets greenlit) and somehow I don't think it will be David being a full-antagonist towards Shaw

perhaps he only experiments on her in an attempt to revive her?

But the plot twist is that prometheus is actually better.

>>
>>83544695
> My interpretation is consistent with the David of the second film

I think Ridley Scott and the studio read that Michael Fassbender was getting huge praise as David and so they decided to make the film about him. They even put two of him in the next film. They focused so much on him that the main protagonist of covenant had virtually no character development, I don't even remember her name desu. They changed the story around to make it all about Fassbender and Aliens to appease moronic fans. The original plot trajectory was towards Shaw and David exploring the alien planet.

It's very unlikely at this point given that Covenant did pretty bad at the box office, the Alien franchise will continue of course in due time, but I don't see the next movie picking up on these two.

The question you should be asking is whether that makes him a broken machine or a naturally fallible human being. David going back to being subservient to the nearest human like a drowning man looking for a life raft would not have been development.

Of all the problems with this movie, people pick the least problematic part and attack it.

David going genocidal made PERFECT FUCKING SENSE

1) He was shown to do it in Prometheus, whether by order or on his own is unimportant.
2) His programming provides him an extensive knowledge of human culture. As we see in Prometheus, he was clearly designed to be able to learn how to communicate with the Engineers.

In his studies on the Engineer ship, it makes PERFECT SENSE that a HUMAN MADE ROBOT could get WEIRD FUCKING IDEAS from studying an ALIEN CULTURE.

3) He might not have actual free will, but he LEARNS. And what do you think all the violent shit from both Engineers and humans in Prometheus taught him? He was exposed to a cold and violent environment and thus learned violence.

4) The flashback series with Weyland show him having what looks like content for mortal creatures from the get-go.

5) Sexual frustration from spending years with an asleep Shaw and not getting any got to him.

David can't feel sexual urges, he makes a play on Shaw because he wants to be human and keeps forcing himself into doing the things he's learned are important to human emotion, like intimacy and crying, and waxing philosophical about hurting things.

David is almost mustache twirling in Covenant, but that's actually the point, he's still as childish in his understanding of humanity as he was in the first one.
>>
>>83547210
>David can't feel sexual urge

That was a joke[/spoiler[
>>
>>83547267
But you're not far off, it's an aspect of human interaction he probably won't ever understand, but will still seek because he sees himself as more than a machine.
>>
>>83545856
I would say Alien and Aliens can be changed around, but it's still accurate either way.
>>
>>83543138
A combination of his standing orders, the ethical dilemma he had, and the conclusion he came to with it when he had his conversation with Holloway began the fault that is now contributing to his near rampancy in Covenant.

David is just about the only thing Covenant did right. Fuck you.

He didn't know what the black goo would do. Weyland told him to try harder to find immortality so he saw if the secret was in the goo. That's a far stretch from CREATING THE XENOMORPHS.

>>83550169
Untrue, we saw expansion and elaboration of the themes of Prometheus through David's role in Covenant. He's childish but it's more like he's progressed from an infant to an adolescent.

HUURRR DEEE DURRR

What happens to an android, who is shown to have personal desires and wishes in Prom, when the one person it was built to follow orders from dies? It becomes it's own master and loses it's desire to serve humanity, which he already showed disdain for in Prom.

You're grasping at wheat here. He put the goo in that guy's drink in Prom for the same reason he dropped the payload in Cove, he wanted to see what would happen and because he has disdain for organic life. The evolution is not that big of a jump.
>>
>>83550196
10 years is a long stretch.
>>
>>83550196
It was clear that David was capable of experiencing human emotions like malice, which he harboured towards poor man's Tom Hardy after he was a cunt to David several times, thus used him as a human experiment.

He hates humans in general due to be constantly treated like shit by Weyland and others, it's not even remotely a stretch to imagine he'd want to kill us all when he literally spent the entirety of Prometheus fucking with the human characters, even getting Weyland killed by saying some shit to the Engineer.

In Covenant his major development comes with the fact that he sees himself as superior to humans, however this is contradicted by the fact that while being superior, he can't create life, which makes him feel inferior, thus he wished to create his own form of life.

How are you fags so dumb as to not see this shit.

I don't agree with yoir description of the character, byt yea some of us enjoyed it. Just not enough to make the film commercially successful. Bye bye Alien prequels, you will be mildly missed.

>What happens to an android, who is shown to have personal desires and wishes in Prom, when the one person it was built to follow orders from dies? It becomes it's own master and loses it's desire to serve humanity, which he already showed disdain for in Prom.

some of this sounds correct, but others are too much >assuming assumptions

whatever you may project on to him, David was a slave to his master in Prometheus and his programming would not allow him to fuck shit up without Weyland's approval

the words he spoke to the Engineer were also Weyland-approved

>not having a Xenomorph fuck up an albino proto-xeno to show it is superior

Seems like a missed opportunity.

What was up with those homo android scenes
It felt so out of place

There's always AVP if you want monster fights.

>>83552496
what would that even achieve

they're both pretty similar in terms of wanting to fuck shit up

>>83552588
The spore infection method seems so much more efficient. I just wished they demonstrated the Xenomorph's life cycle is superior, bc the end product is superior.

the entire movie is a missed opportunity

Ok, you utter turbo plebs. I explain it to you.

DAVID IS THE MONSTER NOT THE ALIEN

Thats why Ridley shows it so freely and unmenacing. The real horror is David. And the ending cements that.

That lil alien was p cute

Imagine the following

Trice the mental capacities than human (propobaly even more) + daddy issues + social isolation + malfunctioning programming

What happened is literally EXACTLY what you would expect. Fassbender saving another mediocre Alien movie single-handedly.

Spores need to be really close to infect anything, and probably require soil to grow. The Xenomorph, it's eggs and offspring can thrive in artificial environments which makes it far more dangerous to space travelers and any worlds they form a bridge between.

The simple fact that every stage in the Xeno cycle can move autonomously makes it far harder to eradicate.

>>83552993
Also I don't think spores could infect anything wearing a sealed space suit. Face huggers make quick work out of that shit.

Daniels was the least appealing, least attractive, least inspiring actress I've ever seen on screen before in my life. Her expressions include:
-grimace
-grimace a little bit harder
-grimace and cry
