Is this shit canon or not?

>>213917200 (OP)
There is no single guiding Alien canon, just a bunch of malformed separate routes.

It's literally and unironically the only canon movie after Alien.

>>213917200 (OP)
Yes and it's a great movie

>>213917264
wrong, canon is Alien - Prometheus - Romulus

David will be canon but the engineers creating humanity will not be canon.

>>213917200 (OP)
I don't give a fuck about canon
I *like* Prometheus

>>213917305
>canonizing Magnus the dog
I don't think so. This is a Jonesy board.

>>213917333
Cope, Romulus confirmed they're still canon. The goo baby was half engineer half xeno, and the black goo itself is a Prometheus thing.

surely you could have asked in the general thread you fucking sperg? >>213893769

>>213917399
She's cute and strong.

Prometheus II should have been about Shaw and the Head of David traveling the galaxy, visiting weird setpieces. Make it a kind of Vigil and Dante descent into the unknown road trip storyline. Slow burn. Minimal action. Lots of atmosphere. Weirder the better.

Prometheus thread. Prometheus board.

>>213917200 (OP)
its the source material

>>213917399
why do these shots exist?

>>213917200 (OP)
No. 90% of everything Alien is not canon. It's just the way the series is. It likes to explore different ideas rather than one coherent canon.

>>213917300
>>213917352
based Prometheus chads

>>213917200 (OP)
no. it wasn’t even going to be an alien movie originally but fox executives kept hearing “ancient Alien: the prequel” whenever scott talked about it and kept meddling to make it that

>>213917200 (OP)
Yes, the latest Alien movie confirmed it. The new TV show might ignore the prequels but it sucks and the movies are what matters anyway.

>>213918330
Someone should have said Illegal Ancient Aliens and they'd have made it about Giant Mexicans!

>>213918334
The TV show takes place after Covenant, and features a Xeno and a ton of other hostile alien life forms.
No one has mentioned this, but this setup could fit very neatly with the idea of David making fucked up biological experiments with Daniels and the rest of the 2000 colonists in cryo on the Covenant.

>>213917200 (OP)
More canon than Alien v Predator duology

>>213917200 (OP)
man who cares at this point

>>213917376
Promotional photos aren't canon

I enjoyed Prometheus and Covenant
sure they're flawed and all that but it was something new, they took creative risks
people hated them and shat on Ridley non-stop so now we're stuck with the same film of small crew stuck in a place getting killed until they defeat the bad guy in the end, this franchise is stale and it will continue to be for a long time
awesome stuff

>>213917525
>posting in a faggot general about 2025 Alienslop
haha

>>213918480
>Promotional photos
oh to be gay and retarded

>>213918491
The scenes where they’re in the necropolis as night falls is some of the greatest cinema I have ever witnessed. The atmosphere Ridley managed to capture is PURO kino!

>>213918491
They both looked great at least, especially Prometheus, which had le atmosphere as well

Just rewatched prom & cov. There's something about the feel.

>>213917200 (OP)
Who cares?

>>213918491
these films were undeniably fantastic in so many aspects.
The criticism voiced immediately exposes itself as petty and not attention worthy.

>>213918597
Technically, organisms can't be perfect.

>>213917262
What the heck?

>>213918683
Yes, they can. They just have to be big, black, and penis shaped

>>213918491
*takes off helmet*
*plays with alien snake*

>>213918764
why are europeans like this?

>>213917200 (OP)
No. Here is the actual canon. Anything else is fanfiction and psyop.

>>213918334
The latest alien movie isn’t canon either

is the bent axe canon?

>>213918819
its past 11pm in Europe rn. Europeans are all out partying getting drunk and meeting girls rn. Its only americucks here waiting for the evening to start.

>>213918890
Only in the Alien Cinematic Universe. Comics axes are straight, unlike (you).

>>213917533
It really had so much potential.

They could even go full science fiction insanity and have the journey take thousands of years with Shaw in hypersleep, so by the time they get to Engineer planet it's the year 10,000 or something.

>>213918954
Standard earth years don't work in space.

>>213918988
Your body still "ages" no matter how you travel or where you are in space.
She'd age 10.000 earth years if she spent traveling somewhere for 10.000 earth years.

>>213919076
Ever hear of Einstein?

>>213918988
>>213919076
Yeah but Ripley was in hypersleep for like 60 years. And the Engineer in Prometheus was in hypersleep for 2000 years.

If they wanted to go all in on another level of cosmic horror, put Shaw into a position where she's not just very far from Earth physically, but she's thousands of years beyond any kind of Earth government or corporation surviving through history.

>>213919104
no

>>213917200 (OP)
>is pre story of aliens and humans creation in Alien universe canon?
How stupid can you be.

Why was he so mad?

Zoomer retards think that liking bad movies and hating good ones makes them seem smart because they saw a Dark Souls 2 IS ACTUALLY THE BEST ONE! video essay on youtube once.

Was Tennessee mentally disabled?

>>213919371
being a mindless contrarian still beats being a mindless majoritarian, simply because as the former you'll have to work for presenting sound arguments as the odds are against you, ultimately forcing you to cultivate a critical approach to media, whereas the latter will never develop such an approach and will forever be a slave to the zeitgeist.

>>213917200 (OP)
prometheus was based. I'm glad he replaced the cuck chair elephant. hope to see more prometheus chads appearing in alien earth.

>>213917200 (OP)
Yes after Romulus, son of Prometheus.

*CANONIZES PROMETHEUS AND MAKES FA/tv/IRGINS SEETHE*
Holy based

>>213917200 (OP)
obviously not canon
nothing but straight sequel is ever canon

>>213919631
not canon

>>213918384
I don't even know what you are talking about and I'm certain it is a good thing. I'll just hold on to the Aliens I grew up with and Prometheus and ignore everything else now.

>>213919631
Kek, based Fede and Ridley. Now to bring back David to complete his arc. Rain and Andy trapped in David's spooky haunted house nightmare ship with a bunch of his evil creations running around would be kino.

>>213921097
You didn't see Alien: Covenant?
