But what about the wheat

>>213703795 (OP)
Hot take:
Alien 1 to 4 are good, romulus and the vs predators are ok, prometheus and covenant don't exist

>>213704393
the only thing hot about that take is calling 3 and 4 good

>>213704393
Nah nigga

>>213703795 (OP)
they did though

Romulus did a better job explaining the black goo than that hack ridley

>>213703795 (OP)
i mean it kinda did, but the third movie would've been the full-circle film, that would've ended right before the first alien, and showing what happened to david.

Remember the scene where they replaced the chestburster with a NECA figure and it copied David's T pose?

can you be anymore bland

>>213703795 (OP)
which questions?

>>213703795 (OP)
Bonus situation and?

>horror movie sequel provides unnecessary backstory that removes any sense of mystery or suspense
Every fucking time.

I liked Romulus. Rewatched it and still liked it, more so the second time.

You want a hot take? Here
Alien, Prometheus and Covenant are the only good movies in this franchise

>>213704812
fax

>>213704812
add 3 and you will be right

Covenant is a comedy with all slapstick slipping in blood and screaming.

>>213704808
This but Prometheus

I mostly enjoyed Prometheus and Covenant. The only really bad thing in theses movies was David creating the xeno. That was trully retarded.

>>213704902
that was literally the point of the movies

>>213703795 (OP)
Kek, that's a good way to put it OP but also
>gives the fans the answers to the questions no one asked in a disappointing way

>>213704433
4 is entertaining and kind of a lost form of schlock. Maybe you just had to be 14 when it came out idk

>>213704541
Nothing will ever approach the youtube video essays from 2012 in explaining the BLACK GOOOOOO

>>213704942
It's up there with Mystery Men as far as shitty 90s movies go
They're fun, but I wouldn't call them good

>>213704854
I hate you

>>213704812
Alien is the only good movie and some ideas being cut stopped it from being a very good movie

>new Alien TV show comes out
>people are still discussing the prequels more
kek

>>213705148
>this has barely 30 replies
>new tv show has a general that hits bump limit several times a day
Yeah sure, buddy. Keeping coping over there.

>>213705098
That's why I called it "entertaining"

>>213705342
the general is 90% full of people shitting on it for being slop, kek

The Alien Earth writers have found a cheat to bypass the Prometheus Problem. Usually in movies like this, characters only die because they are all retarded. But in Alien Earth, all the characters are children, so there's an excuse when they die to bad writing.

>>213703795 (OP)
I asked my entire dad what was the equivalent of capeslop when he was growing up and he said horror and sci-fi, but somehow thinks Alien and The Thing are elevated filmmaking.

>>213705735
On a relative basis they are.

>>213705342
>the general's OP has prometheus concept art

>>213705122
they need to bring that scene back in alien earth

I prefer the recently added prequels

>>213703795 (OP)
Answering questions sucks. Best they leave the background to our imaginations.
