Best Girl edition

previous >>214224799

rockin' the fund kek kino!

Anyone have a screengrab of the full shot of the xeno in the hallway? Design looked good in a few shots.

>>214226874 (OP)
no nibs no like

This show is such an train wreck

A xeno is an alien. A Xenomorph is a xeno that… morphs?

>>214226874 (OP)
Genuinely good episode. Cool to see the xeno leaping off the walls and stuff, very Alien 3 (good)

>>214226934
Uh, no?

>>214226934
Yeap. Adds nothing new, it's just a waste of time at this point.

ok great episode

>alien fucking crip walking before exploding into full chases after the first mate
That shouldn’t have made me laugh nearly as hard as it did. This show is a fever dream and I can’t help but love it.

>>214226940
xeno: strange, foreign
morph: changing, has changed
xenomorph: something strange that has changed (?)

>>214226874 (OP)
Jusr finished it.
I called it. Eye guy did nothing wrong just wanting to eat grass endgame confirmed.
Why are engineers in the show just space jannies when in IRL they are the highest paid?

>>214226323
So hermit still fucking dies. Okay then.

>then engineer chief rigged the ship to crash in prodigy land
>prodigy doesn't have a dozen of elite teams ready to scramble as soon it reach the atmosphere

>>214226874 (OP)
Redguard science lady got a kid killed with her idiocy

>>214226904
fpbp (first post baskin rock)

Why did Morrow seem unfamiliar with Petrovich when they sat at the same table in the first episode?

>>214227017
>prodigy doesn't have a dozen of elite teams ready to scramble as soon it reach the atmosphere
it's supposed to look like an accident.

The captain is hot as fuck

What kind of people watch this FX sci fi show about aliens and expect everything to be scientifically accurate?

>>214227035
That's why they send their most expensive synth prototypes? And either way who's going to tell, the Prodigy press? And they know that WY is going to figure it sooner than later.

THE PLURAL OF XENO IS XENOI, AND XENO (Xeno-) IS A COMBINING WORD
XENOS AS A PLURAL IS A RECENT SHIFT DUE TO IT MEANING ESSENTIALLY AN ALIEN AND ALIEN IS ESSENTIALLY A SINGULAR (with aliens as its plural) AND THIS IS WHY XENO HAS BOTH SINGULAR AND COMBINED MEANINGS NOW

>>214226987
NO
MORPH MEANS FORM
IT CAN MEAN CHANGE BUT IT DOESNT ALWAYS
A SHAPE IS A SHAPE, BUT “SHAPE IT” IS SHAPING

Walmart-yamaha city looks generic it should look more like bladerunner

I was watching the first episode with the scorpion, and I shit you not, 10 minutes later an actual scorpion crawls up my arms and stings me. Nearly gave me a heart attack.

>>214227058
Fridge body and can't act.

>>214227090
Why would you watch TV with a scorpion?

>>214227090
Did you put it in a jar?

>>214227079
A L I E N
A L I E N S
A L I E N $

>>214227090
Cute. Name it.

DEI science lady and Captain AOC did more damage with their incompetence than Petrovitch ever could have.

>>214227084
Then you'll complaint that it looks like Bladerunner and Alien should look more generic.

>>214226905
Kino

>>214227090
Did you kill it so it couldnt sting olyphant?

The anachronism is giving me a big headache =\

Maybe I'm retarded but was it explained why half the crew was in cryosleep and the other half wasn't?

>>214227107
He snuck in
>>214227118
No he's dead now
>>214227120
He's a fucker
>>214227154
Yes

>>214227000
who's getting face fucked

Is Boy Kavalier actually a genius or is he just up his own ass. He didn’t even know how to fix a synth.

>>214227064
It sucks that our only choices seem to be high concept sci-fi with a shoestring budget (ie Primer) or sci-fi with Disney tier budget but it's written by Twitter writers and soulless execs

>>214227179
You should have let it live. It injured a god in comparison to itself, and it deserved your respect, more respect than what it got, you bitch.

>>214227178
They only woke up people essential to the situation and fixing the ship, and kept the rest asleep to avoid more panic.

how did that woman run so fast

>>214227220
The Xenomorph was just playin

>>214227220
She teleported away from the xeno in between jump cuts

>>214227188
The show doesn't really give enough information. So far he's an idiot that misquote C. Clarke.

>based eyeball alien picks a fight with a Xenomorph and causes it to run
Normally, I'd be angry at reducing the main antagonist of the franchise into a little bitch, but this eyeball is alright.

>>214227271
>this eyeball is alright
Our girl stole the show.

This show has Disney all over it

>>214226874 (OP)
>girl
>penetrates and dominates its victims
it's a boy

>>214227284
Honestly Xenomorphs deserve a rival that isn't Predator. Predators are OP and hunt aliens for sport. Eyeball is more to the Xenomorph's level.

Why are you idiots complaining about the city when the show has been in notBangkok since day one?

Noticing a lot of supposed creature containment is made out of normal ass glass.

>>214227323
Profits must be maximised somehow

I don’t know why people dislike the term Xenomorph. Is it overly specific? Maybe. But it sounds cool.

>>214226934
>an train wreck

>>214226967
>alien fucking crip walking

the zoomer retards are out in force today

What kind of scientist eats and drinks in a lab, especially while examining alien creatures?

>>214226987
>morph: changing, has changed
that is short for 'metamorph'. 'morph' doesn't have that meaning.

>>214227338
I don't dislike it, but technically any given alien is covered by "xenomorph". It's supposed to be a placeholder name that just stuck.

>>214227212
You should stab a Xenomorph and try telling it that

>>214227323
And it works unless you forget about the safety measures?

>>214227338
It's fine, just as long as you understand it's not a name and just a generic term that can apply to most anything foreign

>>214227179
What if it stung you so you couldn't kill timmothy ollyphant?
>>214227271
By all rights eye ahould hate it but eye don't.
Was there proof it killed the engineer or chance it just got him after death?

>>214227034
Had that same thought.

>>214227360
I like that it doesn't have a name. It's unlikely they'd choose anything that would be worthwhile. Like they chose Yautja with Predator and it's pretty silly

>>214227338
Yo mean the retards who believe that "morph" means "change"? Calling these "people" is a stretch.

How do you know that eye is a girl?

>>214227321
Because I havent seen a single moped or escalator liveleak

>>214227376
>Was there proof it killed the engineer or chance it just got him after death?
Did you see any other wounds or blood on his body?

>>214227398
She has a cute bajina

>>214227368
>it works

Not for the chestburster containment last episode.

We need to get the eye monster some black goo

>>214227360
>but technically any given alien is covered by "xenomorph"
Technically but ‘xeno’ or ‘alien’ or ‘I don’t fucking know’ still sound a lot better in theory, even though they aren’t as cool.

>>214227389
While I agree that Yautja is super-gay predators do have a culture so all the gay extras like comics, video games and tie-in novels eventually need a name for them.

>>214227352
scientists being retards about aliens is a tried and true series trope at this point. What kind of scientist puts his head over an alien egg?

Also, was that long scene of of cyborg man watching camera playback meant to be a callback to blade runner? Hack Hawley loves to do shit like that.

>>214227424
That's a cryo-chamber not a containment device.

>>214227390
Form and shape denote shape and form as much as they denote shaping and forming. “Form it”. “Shape it”.

>>214227034
>wants money and immortality
>ambushes Morrow for no reason instead of just hiding out the crash and aliens

>>214227453
I'm talking about the tank they put hermit's lung in.

Humans do stupid shit and this is why science advances actually. The Chinese fell behind because they weren’t as dating or as adventurous as westerners.

Will it potentially have consequences? Yes. But all success demands sacrifice.

>>214227499
>sticking your head right next to an alien egg is just faustian, man

>>214227499
>dating
daring*

>>214227457
Cool but isn't xenomorph like a faux scientific name? In the case of aliens they're uncatalogued so they're just xeno(alien)morph(form) until they add something later, like the planet where they found it.

tfw no Zaveri gf

>>214227498
Oh that one? Yeah that's dumb, specially in Prodigy's super-secret projects labs.

>>214227499
I once read that China actually discovered gunpowder like eight hundred years before it was “accidentally” discovered. And I’m like. “What the fuck were they doing in those eight hundred years?”.

>>214227527
The Alien's actual scientific name is different. It's like infernal raptor, or something.

>>214227499

What the fuck is Hawley's problem?

>>214227534
there's somewhere around 500 million of them on the subcontinent, anon. Get your pith helmet on and get after it

>>214227145
>>214226905
the shots of it running along the walls is the only time my brain hasn't said "thats just a dude in a suit"

>>214227499
>The Chinese fell behind because they weren’t dating
Incels BTFO again. Poor guys can't catch a break.

>>214227527
Of course it’s a faux scientific name. You could call them an alien or a xeno (without the morph) and it would still suffice. Europeans were xenos/xenomorphs to native Americans, once.

>>214227552
They closed themselves off from the rest of the world, and by the time they opened up again, the Europeans had already advanced beyond them

>>214227552
China had Martial Arts
The West had Military Science

>>214227499
i say retard

>>214227555
That's gay and sounds like something straight from a comic or novelization, but I believe you.

>>214227552
making little fireworks and drinking gunpowder as medicine

why the fuck did the engineer calling the CEO of a hostile company not immediately set off alarm bells. The crew is expendable but their communications aren't closely scrutinized?

I posted this question during the death of the last thread so I’ll ask it here: how is this a Weyland-Yutani ship when they left 65 years ago in universe, before Weyland’s death and the merger? I wasn’t thinking they were actually going to start retconning shit and if that’s the case I’m not considering this canon at all and might as well be a continuation of AvP2’s retarded ending.

>>214227557
>use goo, people flip
>use goo again and have people flip again or use something else because this alien is a different type
>decisions decisions...
derp

>>214227557
It's his way of telling us that he thinks Prometheus and Covenant blow ass, and he's right.

>>214227635
He deleted the logs, and no one knew what Prodigy was since it came to power while they were out

>>214227635
the CEO used the janitors phone so the call display didnt trigger any alarms.

>>214227635
How does he get out of cryo sleep? Does he just set a timer?

>>214227552
IIRC China built fuckhuge walls that early cannons weren't effective against, so they never truly understood the potency of gunpowder

>>214227597
When do we get a chinese man kung fu fighting the xenomorph?

>>214227575
>Europeans were xenos/xenomorphs to native Americans, once.
Did we lay eggs once

>>214227617
>Internecivus raptus
from some DVD menu
>Linguafoeda acheronsis
from AvP comics

>>214227665

So far, they’re better than this.

>>214227409
So no proof
Just like jr engineer seemed to be chest bursted but not

Is the perverted asian guy human?

>>214227449
>What kind of scientist puts his head over an alien egg?
Your viewpoint is skewed by alien eggs releasing chestbusters in this IP. Eggs aren't known to launch parasitic organisms at people otherwise.

>>214227597
When the communists took over and the shaolin monks tried fighting them off with their firsts and “Chi”, kek; that moment of China’s history sure was cringe.

I like Morrow more after this episode. Can't wait for him to kill Kavalier

>>214227717
>firsts
fists*

>>214227715
Exactly kek. That's always been such a dumb criticism

They’re really setting up Boy Kavalier for an ironic death sequence huh

>>214227752
Imagine the Japanese when they first tried eating puffer fish

>>214227715
I dunno nigga if I get on an abandoned alien spaceship and I see a bunch of vagina eggs I'm not taking off my helmet to look at them closely. We got hostile venomous creatures on Earth too

>>214227712
Yes

>>214227640
Given the lore, at some point when they got the specimens or at a station, the changes were made to the ship.

>>214227671
Didn't they discuss Prodigy as a new development during the ship meeting in Episode 1? I can't remember

>>214227715
A logical person should still be cautious with an alien lifeform that could be capable of anything.

I wish my bald head looked as good as Teng's

“It’s a Xenomorph”

Did this throw anyone else off a bit

Cherub Rock played at the end because it was Chicago, where famously the Pumpkins originated. The lyrics are a bit more cryptic, it might just be as simple as a shoutout, song fucking rocks though: https://youtu.be/q-KE9lvU810

>>214227876
A little bit before I realized that they probably knew what they were looking for

>>214227403
>dey here

>>214227925
Timeline wise I mean

>>214227635
It's up to Morrow to do that and he didn't know the guy was getting out of cryo. He's corrupting the logs by the time they're four months out.

>Just gonna stick my whole unprotected arm into the giant tick chamber(I've been starving them for two weeks btw lol)

SCIENCE!

>>214227925
>they were looking for
literally how though unless AvP is canon to this show?

I've heard the argument that Weyland clearly knew about the Aliens in the original movie too, but this specific ship launched 65 years ago and the show is set in 2120, which means the company already knew where to find Xenomorphs in the year 2055. I guess the best explanation I have is that they emailed the ship all the Prometheus lore while it was already in-flight.

>>214228188
This show isn't canon

I thought ayy lmaos were incentivized to capture not kill people.

>>214228217
They eat some people, it's the balance to eat vs reproduce like any creature

I thought the reveal that it was Boy Kavalier directly talking and giving orders to the saboteur kinda weird. I feel like his bald guy should've been the one doing all that

>>214228198
Why bother setting it 2 years before the original movie then?

>>214227323
That and these seemingly powerful, extraterrestrial species that can survive in the vacuum of a space are housed in a container that has no quarantine room when feeding them, beyond retarded.

>>214228265
because the director is a hack

>>214227686
The should have figure out that gunpowder could blow up walls if applied correctly. Hell half of Beijing blew up in the 17th century when one of their armories went cablooey.

>tick knew the scientist was studying them
>probably deduced the experiment was about feeding on dead blood after being starved
>even though they don't, it chooses to as a ruse to distract her so the friend tick can open the top
Ticks are the dark horse of this series, most intelligent alien. Eyecels fear the tick.

>>214228239
I saw a really gay theory on here that Boy Kavalier is an Android and the bald guy is the actual CEO that's just roleplaying as a bottom bitch for cover.

>>214228239
It might have lent credibility to the saboteur for the deal. Kavalier might also not even want his Lieutenants to know about it, since it involves crashing a ship into his own city

>>214228082
black debbie didnt science too good

>>214228291
The eye was trying to warn her. I think the eye is nice :)

>>214228291
EyeGODS just watched our girl fuck up a xenomorph’s whole deal using a squishy old man’s body. Ticklets could never.

>>214227340
Crip walking started in the 70s you ape.

>>214227907
>who wants honey? as long as there's some money.
Noah's referencing the Bonus Situation, obviously.

>>214228291
The tick also tried to hide.... in a sandwich. As if someone wouldn't notice that.

>>214226988
Because you are thinking of different engineers. IRL machine room specialists in ships are also called engineers although they didn't go to an engineering faculty in uni just trade school engineering. The dumbass that drank the alien was a trade engineer, the old guy most likely also was a tradey but the traitor Petrovich was the Chief Engineer so he could be an actual engineer that went to uni

>>214228297
Wasn' it a long time ago?

>crashing a ship
With no survivors

>Boy insults Petrovich
>Petrovich still goes through with the plan
lmao Russians are born slaves

You know, when I heard they're making this show, I really thought it would just be a zombie apocalpyse show featuring Xenomorphs instead.
So far I'm not sure this is actually better.

>>214228438
The damage was done, it needed to draw attention away from the water.

>>214228493
Wouldn't the next logical thought after finding a tick in your food be to check your water too?

>>214228441
I played a lot of red alert years ago and when a friend of a friend said he was an engineer I made a joke about changing the color of the building but he did not laugh.
What will they do next call chiropractors Dr??

Just realized that the baby ticks are probably infesting not-Bangkok by now

Ocellus is so cool. I hope she kills Guy Fieri.

So the eye lured the xenomorph, attacked it and tried to control it but couldn't or the xenomorph pulled it out before it was able to control it?

>>214228291
they're not only intelligent
they can reproduce themselves faster than xenos
you can have a full 3D room of them before you get a xeno

So is this show bad on purpose? Like, is it some kind of inside joke? I am in awe of the slop I just watched.

>Mogged by a synth and dragged by its pharyngeal jaw
>Struggled to wrestle an eye monster piloting an old man's body
>Outran by a big tit woman
Can this get any more embarrassing for Xenos?

Holy shit this show is dumb

>>214228701
>So is this show bad on purpose? Like, is it some kind of inside joke?
Kinda yes, kinda no. This director worked on Fargo for 5 seasons over a decade, and Fargo is a black comedy. He didn't adjust his directing style at all for this show, so watching it gives you extreme whiplash

>>214228634
Xeno has no eyes and acid blood. Eye-chan can't do shit.

>>214228188
Neat trick, dipshit.
Except Prometheus was not on LV-426.
Prometheus was on LV-223.
Why do you retards keep confusing three different planets for the same one?

>the critical drinker trashed the series
ohhhh, so that's why all these kids are naysaying the show in these threads, they think they'll come off as real cool guys if they parrot the drinker's opinion!

>>214228634
>So the eye lured the xenomorph, attacked it and tried to control it
no, the eye just happened to be on the bridge when the xenomorph came there

>>214226934
It reminds me more of Alien Resurrection than any other movie in the series, so no wonder it's filtering a ton of tards as well. Good riddance I says, I hope there's no Cameronfags left watching by the second season

>>214227271
>main antagonist of the franchise
But anon...it's the corpos...

>>214228703
i think they're going to be used as memory stick too

>>214227187

the only one wearing the same shirt color remaining is milf's husbando

>>214228779
>Xeno has no eyes
uh.....

>>214227876
Xenomorph just means alien. It's a greek word.

>>214228874
I swear they called this dude a synth in e1

>>214227090
5D experience you should thank him

Why is everyone calling the eyelien a girl?

>>214228829
>the critical drinker
I don't understand how anyone can put up with listening to that scottish niggerfaggot's nasally voice, forced accent and embarassing '13 year old's idea of drunken drawl' play-acting for more than 30 seconds without wanting an instant lobotomy

So corporations ARE the government now which means no US? etc. It doesn't make any sense? In the movies you literally see the US Colonial Marine Corps

>>214228811
I get that you think you are very smart, but the planet was never part of the discussion at all. The issue is that the company is aware of Xenomorphs decades before they should be.

>>214229021
They called him a Robot. He's just a creepy dude in space for 65 years.

>>214229058
>US Colonial Marine Corps
Ummmm it's actually UA (United Americas) in the comics, games and books lore

>>214229017
Now explain why they keep exclusively referring to the black murder machines as "Xenomorph" and no other alien species

I know it's all just wishcasting but I genuinely like the idea that the little fucker is capable of benevolence

There were so many little ambiguous moments in this episode that show it's smart but don't quite show that it's evil
Which is a fun contrast because this episode also finally underlined that Kavalier is just evil as fuck

>>214229091
By the events of the first 3 movies and by this show it would be the United States Colonial Marine Corps.

>>214228829
It's the reality of this show getting popular. Everyone thinks the crew being underpaid/uneducated and incompetent is a "plot hole" and want to be the smarty to point that out.

I haven't seen anything outside of Alien 1 and 2 and this series. Have they done other alien species before? The eye thing and leeches are cool as fuck.

>>214227187
>>214228966
one of the teasers already showed the pajeet locking him in the laboratory.

>>214228874
Genuinely what was his position
Quartermaster?

>>214229073
>I guess the best explanation I have is that they emailed the ship all the Prometheus lore while it was already in-flight.
You are the retard that claimed that David, for some unknown reason that does not fit in with anything we have seen him do or say, emailed Weyland Yutani with the coordinates of a planet that he had no knowledge of even existing.
David, Weyland, and the Prometheus crew went to LV-223.
David then went to Planet 4 with Shaw.
Nowhere in Prometheus or Covenant did they visit LV-426.
Stop being a fuckwit retard and admit you didn't know that and that you just smushed all three planets together.
I'm pretty sure that you are the same faggot claiming that David created the aliens that we see in the Alien movies outside of Covenant and Prometheus, while conveniently ignoring that at no point did David visit LV-426.

>>214229130
>(not true by the way)

>>214229197
David had access to an engineer ship, so it's not unreasonable to think he could know the cargo and location of another ship. Granted, I don't think that's what happened, but everything about this franchise is so contrived that I wouldn't rule it out.

>>214229121
Eye think she just wants to go home and is trying to take over bodies until she finds one capable of it.

>>214229073
>>214229058
the showrunner clearly said he does not care about Ridleys prequels or the previously established lore or canon. He is doing his own thing and does not care how many plot holes it creates or how it factors into the overall continuity of the franchise.

>>214229171
>arm uncovered.
thanks, that's him

Going to stream ep 5 in a minute if anyone hasnt seen it yet

The eyeball fucker is the best desu

The eyeball killed an innocent man.

>>214229132
the black biologist lady doesn't even do anything wrong, tech malfunctioning or being subverted by aliens is a staple of the Alien series (hence the tick getting out), and her failure to secure t. ocellus is because of stress as the acting captain lady is urging her to come with her immediately. She also fails to see the escaped tick, but that is because she is completely engrossed in her experiment.

>>214229322
Use something other than angelthump, quality is ass

>>214229343
Yes, it wants to assimilate all of humanity, it just fights the alien because it's a rival predator.

wait so the asian wasn't a synthetic?

>>214229224
David is a greedy fucker.
If he knew about the LV-426 crash, he would never have shared that information with anyone.
Much less been able to send the coordinates back in time to the Maginot to investigate.

wow a disney property filled with UGLY NIGGERS
who woulda thunked

>>214229388
Worse, a coomer

>>214227478
He only turned because he was going crazy on the ship, and by the end we can gather that his ultimate goal became unleashing the monsters on Earth.

Did they really bring 65 years worth of cigarettes with them?

>>214226934
An?
ESL and retarded with bad taste. Checks out.

>>214229555
Are you the retard that keeps asking stupid ass questions with no relevance to the show?
Next you'll be asking how they knew just how many fucking tampons to pack on the ship.
Or how many Q tips. Hell, you'll probably ask some dumb shit like "Where do they wash their clothes?"

>>214229555
They spend the majority of the time in cryosleep.

Pretty hilarious watching the engineer vault over the xenomorph, land on it's back, and start fucking biting him.
It was kind of like when you watch national geographic and the big intimidating predator freaks out because a monkey jumped on their back or something.

Ocellus is best girl.
Nibs move the fuck out of the way.

>>214227199
Just accept that you're older and you will never like anything again. You see politics in everything, you can't remove the art from social media and everything surrounding the art. You're broken by internet shit. You spend so much time giving a fuck about unimportant, unrelated shit, that you can't just enjoy anything for what it is anymore.
I don't know what "soul" you're looking for. Why you think everything new sucks. You just got caught up in other bullshit and it's ruining how you consume and enjoy art. You derailed some time in the last ten years and you're never coming back.

>>214229050
because it's important these weirdos sexualize everything

>>214229691
Ocellus isn't a girl, he got Nibs pregnant.

>>214229711
SHE got Nibs pregnant.
Don't be racist.

>>214229050
The scientist called it a she, it's canon.

>>214229758
>penetrates its victims

doesn't sound very female to me.

>>214227557
There's nothing connecting the ticks to the eyesquid to the xenomorphs. We can assume these are all different species from different planets.

Those dudes ain't getting paid enough to wear this shit.

>>214229121
It's not really wishing. We are told it is intelligent. We see it try to warn a scientist against imminent danger. We see it risk its own life to save Morrow and Zaverni.

>>214229797
Take the three foot wide gold head flaps off, and it would be cool armor.
You are not that scary if I can just walk through a doorway and you can't follow.

>>214229827
Not with these poofy pants.

>>214229812
>against imminent danger

or he was trying to snitch on a fellow prisoner who was escaping.

So uhh.. If the crew is all in cryosleep and the overall journey is 65 years long...
how do all the specimens not die of old age?

>>214229058
>we sorta forgot about that

>>214229851
They're in "cryo" too.
The writers just didn't think of that.

>>214226874 (OP)
kek, it's kino!

>>214229058
They rebranded to United Space of America and left administration of the continent to Walmart.

>>214229848
Okay, they're a bit poofy.
I bet you have a lot of ball ventilation and freedom of movement though.

>>214229851
>how do all the specimens not die of old age?
the facehugger eggs in the first movie are implied to be thousands of years old

>>214229937
>>214229848
Episode 6 song confirmed

>>214229969
I actually had all the other specimens in mind.

>>214229812
It was trying to upgrade to a xenomorph host. Saving anyone was incidental.

>>214230029
Don't ask silly questions.
Ticks, even space ones, apparently can live for over half a century.

>>214228335
>>214228344
>>214229688
do you think the eye knows Kavalier was behind the sabotage and got the whole crew killed, hence she's glaring at him like that while controlling the sheep?

>>214230059
>Ocella cutie was watching Petrovitch plan bullshit with Kavalier.
Eye can believe it.

>>214229183
pilot, clearly

>>214229851
The facehuggers hatched out of eggs, same thing they sleep in on the derelict. Everything else just seems to keep.

>>214229183
Morale officer. He's there to cheer everyone up.

Why the fuck would you go on a 65 year long space mission if you have kids at home

>>214230104
Money.

>>214230104
To provide for said kids.

Although, I suppose you probably don't get paid until you get home...

Why is everyone in the future so dumb and retarded?

>>214230116
>I need money
>so I can spend it after my kids die

>>214230104
In one of Morrow's letters his daughter says employee families get tuition for corpo-run university.

>>214230134
My guess is Weylan-Yutani provided some income to his daughter in some way.

>>214230133
>in the future

>>214230133
Well they are OUR offspring...

i want to lick boy kavalier's feet

>>214230104
Family benefits.
You get paid jack shit, your family gets taken care of for life.
If you make it back, you're a legend to your grandkids that are now younger than you.
If they don't exist, well, you can start over with a ton of money.

>>214227199
Souless executives are the bread and butter of the Alien Universe.

Idiocracy is a post Alien Earth world

>>214229688
It’s about right, predators are all about risk aversion so prey that’s usually easy meat fighting back or attacking unprompted tends give predators pause. The thing’s only experience with people prior to that was chasing someone so it probably assumed this would be more of the same. Having something it regarded as little more than prey violently launch at and attack it after the previous experience probably confused the hell out of it.

>>214230104
>>214230215
>>214230142
It's still crazy. I'm sweating over being away from my nephew for 4 months.

>>214230282
wat.
What the fuck is wrong with you?

>>214230308
We're close.

>>214230104
better question, if a crew member has a relative that's solely dependent on them (like Morrow's young daughter) why doesnt he have her cryo'd on Earth until he returns or have her woken up if he ultimately doesn't?

>>214229643
How much midol would they have to bring if you were on the ship?

The Xenomorph was David's creation, the goo doesn't stop aliens from attacking each other. The goo that started earth almost certainly wasn't a peaceful for all creatures. These aliens come from the planet that David wrecked at the end of Prometheus. The novie didn't really do angreag job of explain what was happening.

>>214230318
Sounds like you are a little too close.
It's not yours, and you sound creepy as fuck.

>>214230393
*disn't do a great job of explaining what was happening.* typos

>>214230410
Nothing is more important than family. anon.

>>214230393
>>214230415
Go be a retard elsewhere.
Prometheus and Covenant have nothing to do with the Aliens we see in the other movies or this show.
David took his colony ship of test subjects and fucked off into a distant part of the universe.
Those two movies are dead ends. They weren't even on the right planet.

>>214230410
He's probably a negro. Fathers aren't as important to those people because their women are all whores so you're never sure who the father is. A negro will often be closer to his sister's children, who he's sure are blood relatives, than to his own, who might not really be his.

>>214230501
I've never really thought of it that way, but your theory fits.

The use of the word shares was pissing me off, they were obviously trying to avoid the bonus situation

>>214229848
Pure function

It's the Joker method of killing everyone and taking the getaway vehicle alone.

all the white crew members were sleeping. only DEI hires were up

>>214228866
the eye made sounds to lure in the xeno after morrow threatened her.

How much is a share worth?

>highest rated episode
>unlikely to be surpassed
Morrow and Eye chads won
Nibs and Wendy troons lost

>>214231641

>>214226874 (OP)
is it just me or is the acting, line delivery, dialogue not great?

>>214230478
But but ridley scott himself wrote and directed it

>>214229703
This

>>214229851
The Perfect Organism

>>214231658
Five bucks says that either one of the people running the show or an actor gets a bug up their ass about the episode closest in execution to the films is being well received and has a small fit over it.

>>214227338
It's not specific actually, quite the opposite. Basically just means "alien form"

I go to Hong Kong.

I hate the eyeball alien and the ticks and all these shitty sideshows. It's so unimaginative and trite.
Same with the stock fuckup situations for the (n+1)th time.
And then that saboteur guy literally has a split screen video call with Kavalier ffs. Prodigy couldn't even scramble the feed or something? Maybe have some underling do the phonecall?

And I thought Ridley's latest few movies were shlock.

>>214229058
I'm not sure that throwaway line of dialogue means OFFICIALLY.

You could argue that corporations kind of run the world now. They even use that line in Austin Powers 2. "There is no world anymore. It's all corporations." -Number Two

So episode 5 was essentially just an Alien movie with 99% of the fluff cut from it. Okay then.

>>214226967
he looked like he was in full rave mode

>>214231658
i predicted this shit last week. the whole hybrid thing is the weakest part of the show. it should have always been about the aliens

>>214231897
I like all of it. Exciting things are happening. We're in for a great ending. It's nice to know all the people who think the show sucks are just as eager to see more of it.

>>214229703
I’m enjoying this show and think a lot of people are just going to hate on it no matter what, but I think this is an unfair criticism to that anon. A lot of modern media and literature absolutely sucks and you’re not an incel for pointing that out.

>>214231897
>It's so unimaginative and trite.
the aliens are the best part of the show.

>>214229240
Based

>>214231935
What will they come up next! A rabbit with three ears? A large worm? A bird that flies backwards?

It's absolutely terrible and can't revival classics like Alien vs Predator Requilium

>>214231954
What about a fly that flies upside down?

>>214231727
I thought it was kind of shaky this episode. Morrow and the other main cast are usually good.

>>214231989
Morrow is a black Samurai stereotype

S-she's fast!!

I ball
You ball
We all ball
For eyeball

Is the eyball a fren or an enemy? Sadly it too has become retarded, given that it attempted to eyeball the ONE human-sized creature without eyeballs.

Aliens never molested me as a child.

>>214230133
Well, how smart are Millennials?
And compared to Millennials how smart are zoomers?
Now compared to Zoomers, how smart are Gen Alpha?
Now continue that process a few more generations, don't even hide that all social institutions now exist strictly to create worker-slaves, and extrapolate.

Btw this whole thread is just me

>>214231734
>Prometheus takes place on LV-223 thirty years before Alien.
>Covenant takes place on Planet 4 twenty years before Alien.
>Neither of those two movies have anything to do with LV-426.
Yet still there are retarded faggots that think the LV-223 ship that crashed at the end of Prometheus in 2093 is the same ship that crashed on LV-426 two thousand years ago.

Harvey Weinstein will be the next alien reveal.

>>214232195
I'm sorry mate were you there?

>>214232162
>"Shit! Fuck fuck fuck! Get it off! Fuck what the fuck is this! FUCK!"
>spills spaghetti everywhere

People that have a problem with the Alien being a rubber suit, are you just unable to suspend your disbelief? You prefer CGI that is obviously fake and takes you out of the show? Is Toku superiority still not yet recognized?

>>214232208
I don't need to be there fuckwit monkey.
Prometheus took place on LV-223.
Alien and Aliens took place on LV-426.
Not the same planet.

>>214229812
>>214229849
i thought it was just distracting her. If its really smart then it would know that its best chance to escape would be during chaos.

>>214232258
So you weren't there mate. Thanks for clarifying.

Harvey Weinstein guest stars as The Ultimate Predator.

He will bring you into his bedroom, and after the massage, he makes you give, he will try to inseminate you with his fish like proboscis.

There is no escape.

>>214232195
Dont care. If the creater of the franchise wrote it then it is canon no matter the mixed timelines and paradoxes.

>>214232114
It's still hostile, though not nearly as violent as the other creatures despite its gruesome method of control. It both knocked out and saved the captain lady for whatever reason, even if only to preserve her body for later use.

>>214232162
>the one xeno too retarded to dome its victim and instead punches a hole in its neck

>>214231989
Some are stronger than others so I wouldn't say its bad, it just has a child like quality which fits with the Peter Pan subtext, but doesn't really grip, it takes you out of the scenes. thought that it could be they are only doing single takes, or the direction is rushed.

>>214232267
>i thought it was just distracting her.
It felt more panicked than some weird ploy to distract her

>>214232318
The creator said that David ran off to another galaxy with his test subjects.
Who are you to claim that the creator informed the parent company of his findings and then left a ton of eggs that exceeded his capabilities of engineering?

>>214232416
Stfu nerd

>>214232304
You weren't either.
Your claim that a mad synth informed a company that he cut ties from before he found the engineer home planet is retarded.

>>214232426
Your fanfiction is in direct opposition of both David's actions and established lore.

Nerdrotic says this show sucks so I'll just skip it.

>>214232162
i thought he was going to jab the eye. what a retarded xeno

>>214232416
True. Alien, Prometheus, Covenant are actual works of art from the minds of cultural wealth creators. Earth, AVP, Aliens etc. are all just chewing gum for the eyes, homage, pastiche and cash in's. Sometimes enjoyable but entirely ephemeral kitsch.

>>214232460
why does that retard say that no one is watching the show? it's the most popular thing on tv. even chuds on tv are enjoying it

>>214232503
>On tv
Ok eyelien

This show is getting high reviews on normie sites and all my trusted YouTubers have panned it. I know who I'm trusting.

Btw/tv/ shills for last of us, Korean pop, and Sam Hyde.

I'd rather eat my own shit than listen to this board of degenerates

Enjoy your alium slop

>>214232243
CGI looks a lot better. Rubber looks fake.
