I pitch a remake of Aliens but with references to the 80s like neon and stuff, you know synth music and a David Hasselhoff cameo. Plus the crew are all geeky nerds and they will be like shooting trivia and collecting cool merch from other franchises

Sympathetic alien tries to come to earth and make a new life for itself by escaping its violent home planet. The FBI is the antagonist and hunts it down for much of the film. Include TV shots of Drumpfff saying Mexico isn't sending their best as a diner full of fat white males starts applauding.

Ends with the room emptying and he slowly fist pumps with eyes shut/smirk... fade to black..

Try and find a good writer, keep him away from Ridley and get him to collaborate with Blomkamp with his ideas for an Aliens sequel and have him direct.
It's that simple. The problem with Blomkamp is that he got lucky with D9 and hasn't really done anything decent story wise since.

Prequel opens with David and that one chick from pronetheus arriving on engineer planet.
Suddenly a wild Burt Reynolds appears and shoots chick in the face with a bow then says something about survival and nature before changing into wolfman and leaping out of the ship.
Rest of prequel follows Burt as a wolfman searching for Arnold Schearzenegers daughter. She's never found

0 chance the franchise is dead. Fox will wait a few years for the stench of Prometheus and Covenant to wear off, kick Ridley to the curb then either re-boot the franchise or come up with some convoluted way to bring back Ripley. No way they let a tentpole franchise with that kind of audience recognition die off permanently.

I fucking hate modern Hollywood.
It's so fucking sensitive to retards on Twitter and Facebook.
STOP LISTENING TO NORMIES

Jesus.
Prometheus comes out and it's well liked enough but people say "It doesn't give enough answers about Alien/Aliens".
So Ridley Scott and his producers go "You want answers? Here! Here's everything!"
And then they sit back and expect everyone to love their movie.
But they don't.

Because people don't know what the fuck they want. Giving people explanations for why things exist in a horror movie is fucking stupid. That's like screenwriting 101 and Hollywood is throwing out basic lessons like that out the window because Twitter retards are slapping their sticky mitts on their keyboard and shitting out complaints.

The real question is what's good about it?

It's just flat and boring.
They do nothing with the religious symbolism (oh nooo Ripley kills herself at the end to save everyone what a shock).
They do nothing with the meaning of "good/bad" thing.

It's like Fincher wanted to make Dante's Inferno in space and with an Alien.
But barely tried beyond putting in the basic pieces

There's nothing explicitly wrong with the movie. It works fine. But there's nothing special about it. There's a monster, there's some people. They fight for a while with each other then work together to kill the monster.

But it was still the same formula, just in a city. I don't think a change in setting would Alien. Hell, Alien 3 was on a prison planet, and Alien covenant spent a majority of the run time on whatever engineer world that was.

>They do nothing with the religious symbolism
The Christian themes are surprisingly perfect, Fiorina 161 is literally a fallen world, with all the fire, furnaces and sinners it's basically Hell. 161 being a reference to 616, a variant of the number of the Beast. The alien becomes satanic as depicted in Revelation, it's even called the Dragon and the Beast and is trapped in the Pit before being released and bringing about the end times. Ripley is basically carrying an antichrist, the ultimate culmination of the series' theme of perverted motherhood, she hates her baby and would literally rather die than give birth. It even ends up in a lake of fire, from Revelation. The company scientists are depicted as angels, with flowing white robes coming down from "heaven". Except they're the bad guys and the people in Hell (Fiorina) are the good guys. The black dude gives a speech about rebirth while the Alien is born from the dead ox, a combination of christ-like imagery and Old Testament animal sacrifice, but perverted into an evil version of those two.

I unironically enjoy all Alien movies. Of course some of them are better than the others, Alien and Aliens being the best ones, but I like all Alien movies in general. So far the worst of them is Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem. It went completely off road and felt like a Dawson's Creek episode with Alien sideplot. It was still a passable movie.

Alien: Covenant suffered from pretty much all the same problems as Prometheus, but if you watch them side by side, they're alright. I agree with RLM when they said the weakest part of Covenant were the Alien parts in spaceship. That kinda sucked and lasted for like 15 minutes, so there wasn't even time to build up tension for that. It felt like they just slapped that shit there because people were complaining how Prometheus didn't have enough ayylamaos. I did like the white pale alien bath scene, that was fucking terrifying.

I just wish they didn't fuck up the jockey aka space elephant man in Prometheus like they did. It was this mysterious creature that only appeared for few minutes in the original Alien movie, and it impressed the audience so much that they kept talking about it for decades. I was imagining them as something so alien to us that our minds couldn't even comprehend what they would had looked alive. We just saw the torso, he could've had spider legs or some kind of worm tail for all we know, but then Prometheus came and showed us it was just a space suit and the jockeys are actually bald humanoids. Even the cheesy as fuck comics made the jockeys seem more fantastic.

I mean, he's not wrong. Superhero films are mostly garbage corporate product catering to the ADHD generation, and completely forgettable within a day of seeing them.

However, people in glass houses shouldn't throw stones: "no story", "non-reality of the situation" and "bad" are all terms I could use to describe parts of Prometheus and all of Covenant. He clearly still knows how to shoot a film, everything he makes LOOKS beautiful still, but he really needs to work with better screenwriters, or have them forced upon him. A good editor too.

Why would infesting a planet with xenomorphs make it inhabitable for the space jockeys? They would either have to go down to earth and kill all the xeno's or bomb the whole planet of all life and they could just do either of those things to the humans there anyway.
