My standards have degraded over time, I don't give a fuck (holmes), I'd probly enjoy the cool space effects and xenomorphs running around on screen, sparks flying and shit. Whatever is on the big screen should be a treat. Some massively salted popcorn and a syrupy beverage? Yes, please! Want to finish yourself off with some Wine Gums? Go on, you know you want to! Tiny ninja joint in the mall parking lot, why not? Thanks Mr. Scott. Thanks 20th Century (fucking) Fox. Munch munch. Thank you liberal economy, thanks free world. Munch munch. |

yes i know what you mean, a rush but ultimately unsatisfying. When i watch first Alien film its so well made i see something new every time i watch it, my favorite bits really arent the alien, my fave bits are when the crew are having conversations together freaking out wondering what to do, the acting is so good, its just endlessly watchable. Im looking forward to this new one but its not personally how i saw the alien series going. |

i really like some of the ideas in this version, it would have been like cadfael in space |

If that's a link to an early draft for Alien 3 that included a wooden planet... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah i mean the wooden planet idea its scientificall impractical, but it makes a good idea for luddites and monks why they wouldnt have weapons, religious parallels, the idea of alien running up stain glassed windows and coming up out of privies would be really good, monks blaming the sin of lust of woman etc. etc.. some of it was used for alien 3 which i do actually really like, the extended cut, i like all the british character actors like charles dance etc.. |

Amongst all the review headlines on IMDB, generally stating it was an action film without much depth, this one caught my eye: "An Isaac Assimov and David Cronenberg Hybrid". I don't know what to expect anymore. |

good movie david is the new emperor palpatine |
||||||||

|

I liked the slow beginning and just fannying around I loved the whole section from when they land up until they meet david with that sparse score getting more intense as things go to shite Went a bit shit after that though and when the original style aliens start to turn up theyre not menacing in the slightest, they just get wasted. Especially that last one, zero tension really. I guess david was supposed to be the more menacing presence. Did ridley scott go through a divorce recently with all the couples having one member killed off? Was better than prometheus, resurrection and possibly 3. Incredible production design. |

I liked bits more and i liked bits more than prometheus, i went in with really lowe expectations, but i quite enjoyed it overall, perhaps on prometheus my faves go: alien alien 3 extended cut aliens Prometheus/covenant ... ... ... alien Resurrection .... .... .... ..... avp didnt watch avp2 |

The origin alien had much better character development , more attention to details and the idea that the real villains where the company amd investors who knew about the alien and had secret agendas for the crew. This added a more sinister aspect for the story line. Also that the special effects where stop motion and people dressed up as the alien gave it a more darker feel to it . Similar to how the shot 'the things' it took much longer to sequence these scenes and more film crew to pull it off, but it works so much better and looks more disgusting . Movies today have a few programmers rendering digital graphics and the movies are always aimed at action scenes rather than leaving some aspects of what's gong on in the the viewed mind . |

The alien had very little screen time and when you did see it, it was obscured and it added to the tension. The new alien films have a host of characters who look very similar who just seem cannon fodder to be killed off, they dont really have an function to the story apart from that. In original alien everyone had a function with in the crew, a reason to be their, their reactions to the situations they faced were more realistic. |

Also sound design was much better |

first Alien had real mystery/terror what was this eldritch horror, no explanation just weird real alien origins. The fact in the new ones it has prosaic origins that are related to human meddling makes it far less interesting, and actually its not fully alien at all anymore. Also was much more interesting with the original giger design of the space jockey was a bio mechanical alien fused to its chair, rather than being a bald giant in a space suit. Seems like the writers are missing the point entirely, audiences are scared and drawn to the unknown |

if the insisted on going to the space jockeys planet it should have been weirder and even more alien than anything in the first film, |

that was the silliest part in the entire prometheus, especially because 10 minutes before Milburn was shitting himself when he saw a stack of dead engineer corpses by the door |

, whom i follow blindly in these things. i like how in retrospect she's more positive about Prometheus. and I agree. it was a beautiful failure. i liked Covenant, but it was a Prometheus lite |
||||||||
|

|

i predict the next installment will have Fassbender in three roles |

saw a poster in at the movies thought ah! is that this new alien movie? didnt watch a trailer or anything went to the movie was a bit annoyed by the disgustingly clean opening scene with david told the woman who was yelling and joking around nervously to be quiet as the movie wasnt loud enough to understand anything if she kept on babbling chav with gf seconded and gave support (this was 7 people in that showing) slightly disappointed as i found out it was the prometheus sequel later on really disappointed by the constantly bad dialogue thought oh well lets just pretend i didnt know any alien movies and just let it sink in for a bit furthermore disappointed by poor decisions of the soon to be dead kind of turned on by some visual appeal (mostly spaceship related) grabbed more popcorn in some creepy david scenes enjoyed some action towards the end (no dialogue or plot relevance) stayed for the credits hummed that prometheus theme left a little excited yet disenchanted looking back now, if this was a movie about david the menace, i dont get why the audience always has full knowledge of his motives. is this a serial killer movie? his acts were so obviously explained and shown still rather nonsensical to me. it demystified the alien origins in a bad way. everything i hoped to see coming with noomi rapace which i found great in prometheus was skipped and her character as a survivor trampled on by this script. the aliens played no role at all. while i did enjoy bits of the movie and at some point it created the right mood, i dont think knowing whats happening i can see it again as it lacked so much and demystified so much instead. ai serial thriller - you are a disappoint |
