HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

>>84186104
unironically this

>>84186104

promethus was shit, alien covenant was somehow worse than a movie with so many plotholes that I can't believe they managed to shit out a bigger stinker than prometheus

Aliens is a classic as an action horror and alien is a classic of horror.

>>84186104
This is one of the worst opinions I've ever read. You're even worse than the dumb kids who think Episode III is the best Star Wars movie. I hope you're baiting.

>>84186104
Let me guess, you've never seen a pre-1960 film and you think all pre-1980 films are "boring" and "dated"? Am I right?

>>84186393
Yes, because they are.

Is Ridley a hack or did he just pick the worst writer for Prometheus?

>>84186440
>implying Lawrence of Arabia, Taxi Driver, 12 Angry Men and Apocalypse Now are dated
Those films could come out tomorrow and they would receive critical acclaim. Genre films are usually products of their time but there are tons of masterfully crafted dramas that have aged flawlessly.

>>84186512
Prometheus was a masterpiece you nostalgic memelord.

>>84186512
Bit of both.

He's a hack for ever thinking explaining the mystery to one of his only great films was necessary and an idiot for picking shitty scripts.

>>84186440
Thanks for confirming your opinions are completely worthless. I bet you love capeshit.

It was an unintentional mystery, according to the original premise of the Alien script the only purpose the Derelict had was foreshadowing. The Xenos were supposed to be the mystery with their black pyramid, the ship was just an alien version of Ripley and crew, destined to share a similar fate.

Then when that was removed and the eggs were instead arranged under a stasis field as if they served as some sort of weapon, the mystery of who the big bio-mechanical fossil was came to be.

I think the idea of exploring those aliens is interesting, but Prometheus did it completely wrong.

then again, he originally just wanted to make a movie about ancient aliens influencing humanity with some connection to Jesus Christ, with producers wanting an alien tie-in.

>>84186838
What points? All you did is nitpick. Your argument that Alien is dated is "LOL HE TRIED TO SHOVE A MAGAZINE INTO HER MOUTH!" and your argument that Aliens is dated is "WHY DO THE HAIRSTYLES AND MONITORS LOOK LIKE THE 1980S?! THE HACK FRAUD FILMMAKERS SHOULD'VE BEEN ABLE TO ACCURATELY PREDICT THE FUTURE!" Come up with some actual arguments, retard.

>>84186613
It wasn't. I loved the continuation of the Giger Aesthetic. Even with the Jockeys being big white humans they still looked Giger as shit with their bio-mechanical body suites that looked grafter to their skin.

The problem is the film just isn't written well. The characters all make completely retarded mistakes and the punchline of the movie is simply "Jesus was an Engineer and they were prepping to nuke earth with xeno-goop, Weyland is doing the same shit he did in every Alien film and the robot is an asshole"

>>84186838
>>>Doesn't refute any of the points
"HURR DURR PEOPLE ARE BLINDED BY NOSTALGIA! THAT'S WHY THEY LIKE THINGS I DON'T LIKE!" isn't a point, it's mindless shitposting.

Wait a minute, Spielberg released his best films in the 70s-80s and you think films of that era have aged badly. So are you a hypocrite or do you think his 90s-present work is amazing?

>>84187435
I called pre-80s movies shit, brainlet.

>>84186104
>>84186838
Wow, you've really made me think. This whole time my love of Alien has been pure nostalgia even though I was born 15 years after it came out. Thanks for waking me up, anon. Now I'll only watch modern masterpieces like Alien: Covenant, Star Wars Episode II Attack of the Clones and Suicide Squad.

>>84187558
You shit on Aliens for looking like the 80s, brainlet.

>>84187597
Which was a problem that Steven's movies didn't have.

>>84186584
No they wouldn't, they would have been called out for the garbege they are.

>>84186104
>good reviews are fueled by nostalgia

Fuck off. I wasn't around when these movies came out, I watched Alien and Aliens just a year ago and they are better than most movies that come out these days, and definetely better than Prometheus.

Prometheus and Covenant are pseudo-intellectual slashers. I will admit, they aren't terrible, but they aren't great either.

>>84187622
His films are products of their time just like Aliens. There are all sorts of special effects in Raiders of the Lost Ark that would be done entirely differently nowadays.

Which prevent's the movie from showing it's true potential, it's sad that so many movies got ruined because of that.

Finally, a person who's not stupid enough to actually shit on these movies so hard.
I hate the fact that people hate these movies just because they can't use their own fucking brain to figure out what goes on in it.
Funny thing is: I'd say about half of the haters in this thread's opinion on this movie probably wasn't even structured from their own opinion and probably from some other scrub on the internet ranting on these movies.

>>84186104
Prometheus and Covenant aren't even canon, just interesting spin offs. Anyone who thinks otherwise, up to and including Ridley Scott himself, can fuck off.

>>84187715
You have objectively awful taste.

>>84188215
>Canon
You're just invoking the fags who hate the queen and jerk off to the Directors cut of Alien because they love to body cocoons.

>>84186104
both awful movies
