If the show ends with them on Sevastopol station, it will be my favorite

>>214471310
that ship is fucking great. name? moar?

>>214471307
better design than the one on the show kek

>>214471328
that's the USCSS Torrens from Alien Isolation

what would happen if a facehugger impregnated a Xenomorph
Or another facehugger
Or a queen

>>214471383
damn, I like it. I don't play video games.

Ok finished it all, we need to discussing the quality of this writing.

Eastern Orthodox alien vibes.

>>214471443
You should play this one. It's better than 90% of everything Alien. Way scarier too.

>>214471584
This is like train autism but with shitty video game spaceships instead.

>>214471477
I notice you recommending it often but you should also try Dark Descent

>>214471274 (OP)

Why didn't they just use these things instead of the retarded children in adult bodies shit?

>>214471307
pretty scary

That one's ok, but ally AI is highly questionable and the final boss sucked ass.

Everything in Isolation is just using the styling from Ridley's Alien. Its success is why Romulus and Alien Earth started doing it too

>>214471749

>>214471808
She's a synth

oh so she has a hole and a futa!

>>214471880
Well, literally every Alien media has decided they have to copy having a woman in the lead or semi-lead role now. Same with having a diverse crew. Every single one has had it.

>>214471965
True, but Ripley was not a mary sue DEI hire, she was based.

>>214471839
Fuck, I just got spoiled

>>214472030
I stopped playing when the enemies started shooting back

>>214472079
that's 2nd mission
and, why?

>>214472157
I stop watching movies when the monsters come out

>that squad you grew to love over the entire game? fuck you! you play as three other people with none of the skill or equipment carry-over.
the engineer or whatever the fuck alien city was very cool though. loved the design of it. just a horrible mission gameplay-wise.

>>214472157
Its fun as an Alien game. Not as a shooter.

>>214472212
You are becoming hysterical!

just watched Romulus and it's not as bad as people say. Ash is quite egregious but aside from that and the absurd xeno life cycle the action sequences are well done, Cailee is a qt the android is pretty solid

>>214472386
That's because it just copied all the tried and true stuff from Alien Isolation. Then crammed it full of memberberries, lame jokes, and absurd canon like WeylandYutani, being as bad as Umbrella of course, wanting to work its colonists to death in slave contracts

>>214472386
Based

>>214472386
I enjoyed the first part due the AvP aesthetics and atmosphere but the whole flock is painfully average and dumb.

>>214472442
I actually liked the take on WY sucking because it seemed relatively banal and believable. There was no evil executive planning to maximize human suffering; there were just a bunch of people with quotas to meet and costs to keep down and that lead to people just ignoring worker safety.

The lame jokes and nonsensical plot is a bigger issue.

>>214472442
ep 5 of Alien Earth is way more filled with memberberries. Romulus has Ash, black goo and the final sequence with the spacesuit I guess? It's different enough for me. 90% of the characters does suck though. It's just a decent flick

>>214472386
>Get away from her you ...bitch.

>>214472521
I liked the trick they pulled wherein the movie made sense regardless of whether you consider Prometheus+Covenant canon. If they are canon, then WY is continuing David's research into the black goo. If not, then they're developing the black goo themselves from the captured Xenomorph.

>>214472525

also the last Alien movie I've watch was Covenant so my expectations were VERY low, this wasn't nearly as much of a stinker

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7iQDsZBTkfc

basically a comedy lmfao

>>214472386
>absurd xeno life cycle
Probably the worst so far. It got from chestburster to cocoon to adult ayy lmao in what, 10 minutes?

>>214471274 (OP)
bro the sheep alien is gonna go sicko mode, he's seeing all these things and people dying and is like, "yeah fuck that I'm getting out of this hellhole"

>>214472521
The dipping bird toy
Ash and his dialogue
Main girl stripping to her undies
Get away from her you bitch
Blue laser

Off the top of my head, I probably forgot a lot. Romulus would've been much better if it had it's own identity instead of constant callbacks.

>>214472653
aside from Ash and maybe the quote the others aren't as evident. It's not like Alien invented panties

>>214472635
It's been getting faster every movie. In Covenant, the facehugger attaches to a guy for 20 seconds, doesn't even knock him out, gets cut off, and he still has an egg inside somehow. Then it erupts five minutes later, and is full growth and killing a few minutes after that.

>>214472714

All work and no play makes Joe a dull boy

I feel bad for all the big "fans" who love this series on /tv/. A few years after this is finished (aka axed) you will all pretend to have never liked this. Meanwhile, I correctly recognized this is shit from the first episode, wasn't even hard.

>>214473014
>A few years after this is finished (aka axed) you will all pretend to have never liked this.
They'll be busy shilling the next project. The few who actually pretend to like it will have probably 40%'d by then.

>>214472607
I was watching this in a theater and the entire audience started laughing at the slip lmao

>>214473014
Literally the entire thread is just people laughing at its badness for entertainment.

Literally who? Everyone is here for the trainwreck. You're just too dumb to notice that.

>basically a comedy
A comedy set in the Alien universe would actually be an amazing idea. There's inherent slapstick potential/grossout humor as Prometheus showed, but you could also do an Office style comedy set at some Weyland-Yutani installation that's doing a terrible job at managing xenomorphs and hoping corporate doesn't notice.

>>214473325
>installation that's doing a terrible job at managing xenomorphs and hoping corporate doesn't notice.
I have good news for you

>>214471609
Dark Descent is great especially if you like XCOM. Isolation is great for survival horror. Isolation also has one of the greatest enemy AI in any game ever and it still has not been beaten.

>>214473325
Unironically I'd wanna see WY Dwight. Like, he'd be obsessed with military contracts and walking around in a security uniform, constantly trying to "assert dominance" over everyone, even if he's mostly just overworked and underpaid.

>>214473321
The Eye did it.

Is there any scifi horror with characters who are competent or have some fucking common sense?

I have a timeline.

>>214473493
>no bonus situation
Useless here. Post it on Reddit assuming you didn't bring it from there.

>>214471965
You retards still can’t tell the difference between a likable strong woman and a “strong woman” for modern audiences. Characters are a reflection of the writers or society as a whole. Ripley was based. Most chicks in video games today aren’t because they are written by DEI hires who hate their lives and put there by some Jews who hate your lives.

>>214473325
Ryan, Angela and Stanley could just be cast in the show as-is.

>>214473467
Toby did try to warn Michael about quarantine protocols but he and Dwight told him to fuck off.

>>214473543
The bonus situation was addressed. David doesn't care about bonuses unless they can bring him more subjects to experiment on.

>>214473423
Name one better than isn’t FEAR.
>>214473457
No the Xeno has tech trees that unlock based on your actions so it literally learns from the player. No other game does this.

>>214473457
You're very ignorant and have no clue what you're talking about as usual.

>>214473585
>FEAR
FEAR doesn't even have a good AI, it's all scripted, legit smoke and mirrors to trick idiots.

>tech trees that unlock based on your actions so it literally learns from the player. No other game does this
Dragon's Ligma literally did that earlier and better.

>>214473608
Oh the ironing!

I got spooked by the last episode

>>214473493
kek

nice effort posting

>>214473608
I’ve seen the Xeno pump fake the player before. Almost every single encounter is different and not scripted. And there is no safe room which makes it more suspenseful than Mr. X or Nemesis.

>>214473449
I found the main character from No One Will Save You pretty competent for a functionally mute woman hated by the entire town

>>214473634
> FEAR doesn't even have a good AI, it's all scripted, legit smoke and mirrors to trick idiots.
You’re a retarded zoomer

>>214471477
Yes, if you really enjoy backtracking and opening doors, so you can backtrack and open MORE doors for 25 hours, it's an amazing game.

>>214473713
Less tedious than watching the movies, moron

>>214473655

Pump fake?

>>214473713
What do you think the plot of Alien is?

Did what?

The enemy faction has their own tech-tree?

>>214473698
Ah yes, quick to project after being told, the real benchmark of the idiot.

>>214473761
>A pump fake is a deceptive maneuver in sports, primarily basketball and football, where a player pretends to shoot or pass the ball to trick an opponent into reacting early, creating an advantage like an open shot or a clearer path to the basket.
So for instance if he is one side of a wall or table and you are on the other, he’ll start running one way, you run the other and he’ll stop and go the other to get to you quicker.

>>214473493
Theres a flaw in that storyline. Weyland wasnt merged with Yutani by the time of prometheus and the Maginot clearly works for the company after the merge.
Weyland is the old fag and Yutani is the chinky gooky jap lady.

alternatively, he bought Japan for the hentai

>>214473493
lel

>>214473829
Yeah, I noticed that too. It should just be Weyland for Prometheus and Covenant.
I felt it worked though for showing how David just left and never got involved with the rest of the Alien movies and stuff.

>>214473898
The one schizo that keeps claiming David created the xenos would be pissed to see it.

>>214473927
doesn't the davidschizo insist he didn't create them though

>>214473956
No, that's the other guy that yells at the Davidschizo.
Those two fighting is funny.
I think the Davidschizo is the same one that thinks all of the Alien related movies happen on the same planet too.

just hold the door with one foot and carefully place the metal food on the floor.

Its fine. As long as Kavalier gets goatsed we are all happy.

>>214474059
Not the fans fault the directors are retarded and can't ever stick to a single canon. Why even bother to get invested into this current one? It'll be completely change by the next one any way. Romulus 2 won't go with it, Isolation 2 won't go with it, Prometheus 3 won't go with any of them. Who the fuck cares about this series at that point?

>>214474059
I always assumed "United Americas" was something like the EU. Remember, there's no EU in this timeline and NATO falls apart around the '90s. America would probably seek instead to consolidate their hemisphere.

It would also explain why America has a significant hispanic population but still sees them as foreign. (see: Vazquez in Aliens) America is whiter but there's more legal (and less illegal) migration.

Yeah I remember Ripley telling that to Jonesy. Oh wait, that never happened and you're bringing information from a non-canon source. Refer to the categories from my post and pick one that fits you.

>>214474101
>Romania and Czechoslovakia not in the UPP
>Yugoslavia is
What possible reason would this exist? I get the no Sino-Soviet split thing, and a reunified East Germany makes sense absent NATO. But for what possible reason would both Ceaucescu AND Prague leave the Warsaw Pact? Did the USSR get too perestroika-y after absorbing some of Western Europe and cause a revolt from hardliners? In that case, why is North Korea still in the UPP?

>>214474306
I'm literally explaining a likely reason we see the things we see IN THE FUCKING MOVIES.

Guys, I'm crying right now.

Just looking at her picture makes me feel something strange inside. I guess you could call it "love". I'm in love with Wendy. I've lost interest in all girls, besides her.

Wendy really is all I think about all day, every day. I really do cry myself to sleep at night thinking about how I'll never be with her. If only she knew I existed in this life, if only she knew my deep profound love for her. I know that will never happen though. That is the thought that makes me so sad when I look at her. I'll never be with her, but I'll continue to love her until the day I die.

>>214471307
What’s that from? Isolation?

>>214471686

I also don't understand people who get spooked by movies and vydia but Isolation is a great game for a "run and hide under the bed" simulator.

I genuinely don't think you're human. The absolute level of soul-lessness to consider this bitch not only attractive but also your "waifu", just because she is currently popular and you are programmed to like current thing. Alien: Earth fans have, ironically, less humanity than the least human "hybrids", "cyborgs" and whatnot in the series itself.

>>214474592
in the original 1989 avp comic they used them to breathe while buried underground, waiting to ambush
he should also have a singular fin above them

>>214475419
SF writers are lazy so they'll just say "they're made of faggotrium, more than 20 times stronger than Dragonforce and impervious to corrosion and acids". That's inevitable but at least the fags in charge of the sets could make them to look more sturdy, they look flimsy and cheap.

>>214472607
Im genuinely curious who the morons are that think its a stupid scene because the people in it dont act perfectly. this scene is incredibly realistic as far as how the women reacted. Their panicking and lack of athleticism is exactly how you would expect female science ladies to react to a violent alien.
>imm actually chud, a real woman would have 360 no scoped the alien then drop kicked it out of the spacecraft all in one swift motion
yeah sure buddy, go watch a female basketball game, or any real crime footage involving female cops standing around doing nothing but trying to argue as criminals are assaulting people.

my favorite Alien iterations are Alien, (the ambitious concepts of) Prometheus, and Alien: Isolation. based on this, would I like A:E?
I thought Aliens was okay but too much of an action romp. Alien v Predator is slopkino. the new animated Predator was pretty damn good for being as surface-level as it was

I have to judge relative to expectations. I expected more from Cameron, who showed much more intelligence with Terminator and The Abyss

Dorsal spines/vents. While we don't know officially, authors in books, or rather scientists in the books, have speculated they are used for air filtration to 1. filter out poisons and bad stuff and 2. supplemental feeding by filtering nutrients from the air. I really like that explanation, perfect organisms and all...

Some xenos don't have them like the runner in Alien 3.

>>214475645
>scene is incredibly realistic as far as how the women reacted
that only makes the scene even more comical

All A.I. in games is scripted. FEAR’s was a clever blend of logic choices that adapted with the room layouts. Halo did similar and both are highly regarded even today as they resulted in the important point: fun games.

>>214475779
What did you think "The Real Monsters" was referring to?

>>214475779
humans are engineers dummy, the black goo reverted the baby to our original state

>>214475891
I thought it was gonna be humans, because the writers and Hawley are unoriginal retards, but it will might be corporations as well. Commies can;t help themselves.

>>214474014
>Still no canon appearance
>Still doing better in the concept art department than the 3WE
These guys BTFO the SOF grunts from the RPG anyways

>>214475862
Point is that, if you aren't a retarded and clueless newfag, you have read one of the multiple FEAR's AI guy interviews where he explains that the AI wasn't specially good and they used a lot of tricks to make it more advanced. Like the NPC crying what they're doing, so it looks like they're coordinating, when they are actually ignoring all the other NPC and heavy use of small scripted events, that definitively aren't part of the AI, smartass.

>>214474664
All they had to do after Aliens was have the company find more eggs in another unexplored part of the galaxy on the frontier. There's so many directions they could have gone rather than Alien 3/4.

Which is why the runner didn't have them IIRC

>>214476189
Yes, that's my point, retardo.

>>214476182
I'd be stoked to see a story about a colony that manages to unionize or otherwise shake off the company, only to have xenomorph eggs dropped on them.

>>214476221
Stop insulting people on the internet. It's not civil and contravenes netiquette.

>>214476182
>Company clearly knows what's up by the time Alien^3 rolls around
>Eggs were underground past a mountain range in bumfuckistan
It's not entirely unreasonable to assume that they weren't all destroyed in the explosion
Or have someone stumble across the Torrens

>>214476268
shut up nigger where do you think we are?

>>214476321
Holy Moley! oh you've done it now.

>>214476321
kek usually the insults are only hurled once you reach the breaking point of conversation, not when people are talking in a civil manner. Instant sperging out at anyone who doesn't just copy paste your opinion is the definitive mark of a newfag trying too hard to fit into board culture.

>>214476352
aaaah stop chirruping

I finally realized why the 90's music throws me off: it reminds me of old DBZ movies, where they would have Disturbed and Korn and 9 Inch Nails play soundtracks to keep American children watching while the hyper japanese action played through.

>>214475779
Either:
>Engineers bioengineered the aliens and the black goo which they used.
OR
>Engineers found the aliens and refined them to make the black goo which they used.
In Prometheus they created humans and they clearly worship the alien (the mural) either because they found it or created it. Black goo appears to be refined from aliens (Alien Romulus) most likely because aliens have super stem cells which give them ultimate environmental adaptability and ability to go into many different hosts. Engineers probably used the black goo (they either found or created) to make themselves adaptable for space travel. Black goo with humans can make them into an Engineer like being.

the mural doesn't mean worship, retard. it can be a warning or simple art. you are pushing fanfiction.

Is there a tie in?

>>214476516
>Engineers probably used the black goo (they either found or created) to make themselves adaptable for space travel
Dumb headcanon. Also the jokey was like 3 times the size of Prometheus engineer.

>Black goo with humans can make them into an Engineer like being
Not in Prometheus.

The Alien franchise went to shit with Alien 3 and only legit retards defend it.

>>214476516
I can just imagine him standing there in the back of the room while The Terminator is playing. Clenching and unclenching his fists while Gale Anne Hurd tries to comfort him by complimenting his hair.

>the design seems imbalanced
>let's add some more thinly disguised cocks to it
>aaah, perfect

Giger was such a coomer

>>214476671
Unironically that's probably how it went lel

>>214476549
You don't put warnings inside your storage facility but outside them and I am pretty sure the mural was inside the black goo storage facility. This at the very least implies some kind of veneration, maybe not on the level of worship. Contextually I don't think it was simple art at all. Worship might be too strong a word but your explanations are just plain wrong. I am not pushing fanfiction, simply spitballing ideas from what has been shown.

>>214476590
>Dumb headcanon. Also the jokey was like 3 times the size of Prometheus engineer.
Yes it is headcanon as Ridley never really gave definitive answers on this stuff and yes, the Jockey is three times the size of an Engineer. Blame Ridley for that.
>Not in Prometheus.
In Prometheus we got monster men and squid shit. Clearly black goo needs to be programed somehow.
>The Alien franchise went to shit with Alien 3 and only legit retards defend it.
I never defended it.

>>214476671
based Giger

>>214476690
>This at the very least implies some kind of veneration

No it doesn't. It could be a fucking storage label. It does not imply veneration or worship in any way.

>>214475779
Non aligned unholy abominations, alongside the baby from Alien Resurrection. They probably weird out the Predators

>>214476516
Based Brits dabbing on Cameron.

>>214476671
Based Giger pushing coomsthetics on Scott.

>>214476721
Looks like a pretty dumb storage label to me. Considering Ridley's original idea had Engineer Jesus and you have a fucking cross pose too means it probably was meant to be veneration.

>>214476690
Look at this sign in the cleaning chambers, humans obviously worshiped some sort of flying hands!

If you squint your eyes you can see two facehuggers bathing in black goo. Definitively some sort of worship.

>>214476465
"OK, Hans. We've made nice. You have free rein for Prometheus."
>"Excellent! So we have this big squid monster in the movie with a bunch of tentacles; he's like a big face hugger and he gets born in a gross nasty way from a scientist's womb."
>"OK, I'm with you."
>"And he has a bunch of mouths and face hugs the Engineer."
>"Sounds good."
>"And then he fucking mating presses the Engineer and fucking nakadashi's him as the camera lovingly pans over his back as he has a shuddering full body climax and forcefully yet tenderly presses his seed into the willing host before passing out in a state of—."
>"you know what; fine, whatever, we'll put it in, just please stop talking"

>>214476767
>literally ignores everything that happened in the movie
We see the Engineer sacrifice himself to make life. An Engineer kills Weyland and others because he asked for more life. The whole plot was around sanctity of life for them. You're basically ignoring the whole plot of the film. Also this shit: >>214476763
>Considering Ridley's original idea had Engineer Jesus and you have a fucking cross pose too means it probably was meant to be veneration.

>>214476826

I bet he loved every second

>>214476840
>>literally ignores everything that happened in the movie
As anyone sensible enough should do.

>>Considering Ridley
He's a senile idiot.

imagine if we got a complete, satisfying, lore intensive Prometheus/Alien saga

>>214476671
You guys might like a game called "Scorn", which is a horror game based on Giger's art. It leans a bit more into the disgusting than he did, but it captures his aesthetics (incl. all the dicks and vaginas) and unsettling vibes perfectly.

>>214476767
The script describes the room like an Alien Sistine Chapel.
>The room is described in Lindelof’s script as being “scaled for beings twice our size. It makes our heroes look like children.” The chamber also boasts “cathedral ceilings fifty feet above [them].” David shines a light on the roof, illuminating the Engineer artwork. “It’s a painting,” he says. “Not a painting,” Shaw objects, “it’s a fresco.” David wonders what the difference is. “Frescoes are in houses of worship,” she answers. Shaw’s reaction to the facility is laden with religious overtones in both scripts. Spaihts writes that “She holds her map unit as a pilgrim holds a bible: a guide in the darkness.”
>“We can’t help but agree with her,” says the script, “this does feel somehow holy… like an alien Sistine Chapel.” For Holloway, the chamber evokes a very different feeling, that of “a laboratory” which houses “technology and equipment we have never seen before.”
>>214476869
I am not defending Ridley or Prometheus. Just saying it was pretty clear what the intent was there.

>>214476911
>script is completely different to the flick
OK. So, what's even your point ATM? Being contrarian and push some headcanon of what it could've been?

>>214476911
>LindelOFF

lol, lmao

>>214476959
>contrarian
Anon, you're the one being contrarian for the sake of it. The intent was there in the film, the script and cut parts go even further, but the whole theme of the film was about that shit. It is fine if you hate the film, I am not a fan of it, but all you're doing is denying the intent of that shit to push your own ideas which were clearly not implied.

>>214476996
FUCKS SAKE HAWLEY ALL YOU HAD TO WAS GET A HUGE LANKLET ACTOR

>>214477048
You're saying it couldn't have been worship or veneration. The themes, ideas, scripts and everything else seem to state that it was. So yeah, you're just plain wrong.

Curly bros what happened, she has been completely pushed out of this show.

>>214477038
>>214477078

Guys
Would you rather get eye-fucked or get facehugged?

>>214477079
>>214477020

Are you the David schizo with a new gimmick?

>>214477126
Nope, I have no idea who that is. I don't even like Prometheus, I just think you're being dumb.

>>214477119
I'd rather facefuck Nibs

>>214477119
Just the two acts straight up with any follow up like chest bursting and stuff? Probably facehugged, looks like it's fast, cutiellus digs your eye out and it takes more time, looks waaay more painful.

>>214477152
That's not how you get her pregnant.

>>214477108
You just know

>>214477163
without any followup*

>>214477163
The acts and their consequences.

>>214477175
>jeetas craving the BXC

makes sense

So MILF sent Wendy to talk to Nibs right after her lobotomy just to fuck with Based Atom?

>>214477198
That changes things, chest bursting is a nightmare as well. I guess it depends on your consciousness state after ocellus takes over, if you are awake and can see/sense, but do nothing that's some primo existential dread material.

>Another victory for the enemy of reason.
>It means this space bug is proof of how stupid smart people can be. Smart enough to build ships capable of space travel, of splitting the atom and decoding the genome, but too stupid to realize you don't bring parasites home with you.
This shit feels like some meta commentary on anyone who is going to complain about the dumb decisions characters make and part of me wishes they hadn't put it in the show.

>>214477241
Looked more like Nibs was just put on the bed after the mind wipe and Wendy instantly bolted there with an incessant desire to talk about her claiming to be pregnant and the eyeball situation as soon as she woke up
If it was planned MILF would've had some better made arguments when Wendy confronted her probably

What's his deal?

>>214477305
Cuck liberal scientist too obsessed with ethics and not obsessed enough with Wendy, Nibs and Curly

atom eins is the only cool name in the show, its like something out of dune. i hope hes secretly the real guy in charge and kavalier is a synth or some other asspull.

he was actually a mole for yutani and its going to mess things up for them since he's the one who got facehugged, but they will turn him into a cyborg and then they set him loose on the island as revenge to get back morrow after morrow loses the 1v1 against kirsh and now he used to be a beta freak but now hes a cyborg freak beast who rips and tears shit up but you dont know if there is still some humanity in him, there might still be some humanity in him because who knows what is human and what isnt huh, he stops for a moment and a butterfly lands on his shoulder in the rain, he lets a tear...this is when you know youre looking at pure unrefined hawley shitkino.

I'm thinking BASED

The way the dreadlock nigger female soldier "delivered" her lines while in the jungle was surreal. Sounded mentally challenged, like Tommy Wiseau tier. What the FUCK was that?

DEI's done a number on this industry, anon.

the pacing in this series is very good. it's possible that pacing in series in general has been mathematically optimized.

>>214477557
not him but it was inside the ship and the goo parts have all this ritualistic stuff around it, the movie makes it clear the engineers are religiously into the genetic engineering shit with the sacrificial seeding of earth, its implied they see differently and you can see computer-code type stuff inside of the black goo, all the cold biomechanical stuff is actually high-tech and interpretable to them, but the murals and heads obviously stand out as minimalistic/ritual in the same way they wear simple robes before they sacrifice themselves to seed a planet.

>>214477658
>it clear the engineers are religiously into the genetic engineering shit

clear as fanfiction headcanon, yes

>>214477636
i disagree, its clearly depending on strategic escalations and stretching shit out for a season to attempt to reel in people for 3+ seasons at minimum even though it is budget shit that may easilynot last 2.

>owww what happens next?
>completely pointless flashback episode to what happens on the Maginot (we already know what happened) with only relevant piece of information being that Kavalier engineered the crash
How the fuck was this good pacing. By my count there is like two episodes worth of content that could have easily been removed with no change in quality or plot.

>sheep doing the kubrick stare

>>214477811
that's not what I meant and you know it

This show is frustrating. The writer is lazy as fuck. He goes all-in on the high level conceptual stuff and then fudges the basics of plot, scenography, dialogue, suspense, etc. Lazy fuck. Episode 5 should have been a kino murder mystery short film but he couldn't be arsed to write a good plot. Then we have one of the hybrid kids wander into the """secure lab""" and get space wasp'd. I'm by no means a cinema sins tier nitpicker, but how the fuck am I supposed to believe A. that $50 billion lab is not monitored 24/7 by multiple men, B. the trillion dollar hybrids are not being monitored 24/7, C. that said trillion dollar hybrids would ever be asked to do grunt lab work ??? This is like a school kid being too smart for their own good and skipping over the basics. WRITE A GOOD PLOT & A GOOD SCENE YOU LAZY FUCK.

>>214477833
what other quote could you possibly be talking about other than the greentext of my reply?
just take the L and acknowledge the opening scene of prometheus plainly shows them having religious practices revolving around genetic engineering and seeding.

>>214477851
>A. that $50 billion lab is not monitored 24/7 by multiple men
Kavalier is quite cavalier. Really they needed to have something like mention that their work is illegal, bad, etc and Kavalier is keeping everything to small teams only.

>>214477876
He's some random retarded autist who won't acknowledge anything you say so I wouldn't bother.
