Sure sounds like somebody's bills won't be covered by The Dog Stars' box office.

My faves are Alien and Prometheus. In the minority, I know. Kinda wish there were only those two movies in the series.

The original was great. It didn't need a sequel.

💯

Honest, thank God. Romulus was visually great, but lacked any level of ambition and basically told a fairly pedestrian slasher in space

All Aliens have sucked since the second

The problem with Prometheus and Covenant was that alien was the supporting character. Prometheus also had a plot that depends on the characters being incredibly dumb. Seriously, why the hell would trained scientists get lost and then decide to pet a hissing space cobra?

Bro, U are not the savior dawg

Ouch.

What a well worded view on the film. You should go into professional reviewing!

Yes. It was carried by one strong performance and a bunch of unmemorable side characters who map almost comically on slasher tropes. Exactly one character reels genuine, and he's a damn robot!

Romulus was Scream III meets the Thing in Mordor.

I'll agree that Prometheus was at least a bold and thought provoking take on the lore, but dude.....both that and Covenant had some of the dumbest human scientists EVER put to film lol

Romulus was the best in the franchise since Aliens. It did suffer from weak side characters but it paid tribute to the world, timeline, and aesthetic in a way the others ignored. It offered an explanation to the rapid growth of the Alien in the 1st film without betraying the established lifecycle.

I would have to disagree entirely. But to each their own.

You're entitled to your opinion, but ill maintain that Covenant and Prometheus got more right than they did wrong -- they're just interested in different things than every movie since Alien. The series lost its subtlety and mystery. Prometheus was daring and was actually trying to explore what made

YOU DID THE DAMAGE, YOU SCHMUCK!!

It was really good, so piss off?

3 overly long Alien-movies on a waterworld? Sounds boring. ;)

Dude has not seen his own movies apparently

I loved Alien Romulus, I hope they continue the plan to make a second one.

Sounds like a threat to make yet another prequel movie that tries to explain it all and demystify everything the original made ambiguously scary in the process.

Someone who made something as bad as Alien: Covenant has no room to talk.

I know I'm in the minority here, but I'm on Team Ridley for this one. I'm ready for more David shenanigans.

This ⬆️

I want films where the crew science the shit out of a bad situation. Not shit scientists making a situation worse Hell, in Prometheues I’m not sure anyone made a good decision, especially the eye roll visible from space when Charlize tried to outrun a crashing spaceship and it looney tuned her ass

And that was Ridley Scott who made a film about a man blowing his own flute 😐

🤦🏻🤦🏻🤦🏻

I’d rather he not

why does the franchise need help, ridley? (i liked romulus tbf)

Eh, let him cook. Just please god concentrate on a script that's grounded, intelligent, & makes sense.

With respect, Romulus was better than his last outing. He should sit this one out.

Let’s do a prequel to Aliens about the Mormon colony fighting for survival
