The plot and world-building are great, then we meet the characters. Spaeny’s Ripley rip-off is likeable and Andy her android brother is sympathetic. The other characters though are all various degrees of annoying, compare this to the memorable characters in Aliens. Even Hudson - an annoying jerk - is awesome.
This lot were obnoxious, and of course the one straight white male was an evil asshole, constantly bullying the loveable negro android 🤦🏻♂️
Fede Alvarez also inserts pro-illegal immigration propaganda with our ‘heroes’ a bunch of young people from a miserable ‘third world’ existence who want to make it to the promised planet. Of course, none of them are the violent criminals and rapists that account for all too many contemporary illegal immigrants, and the film doesn’t show how flooding into a better world ends up destroying that world as we’re seeing in the West.
What almost tanks the whole film is the woefully bad CGI used to resurrect a familiar face from the Alien world. In a film that does many things right, especially when it comes to visuals, I cannot believe how badly they dropped the ball here. It rips you right out of the movie.
Forcing in ‘get away from her you bitch!’ is another painfully misjudged attempt at fan ‘service’ (which will likely only irritate fans)
I appreciated some linkage to Prometheus and Covenant as those (better) films needed some kind of bridge to the Alien saga. It was a bit forced but I was happy to see it. Say what you want about Ridley’s prequels, they at least allow for some invention in a franchise whose main beast has been done to death. The hideous new birth at the end was compelling in its horrific novelty.
Action scenes are done really well, and the film finds new ways to make the aliens menacing. Crawling through acid blood globules in zero-G was inspired.
I give the film 6.5/10, it’s better than Resurrection and the awful AvP films. If you’re going to watch it, make sure you don’t pay for it - never fund woke.
So essentially, this is basically a reboot of the 1979 movie for a brand new generation, right?? How long before this movie hits streaming or is it already there?? 🤔
Everybody is so fed up with these stupid racist fragile inbred hicks who start crying woke every time they see a woman on-screen. We know that you are used to making trains with your preachers and your fathers but women do exist and if your pink .ss was superior it would do some good on this world. Stop whining you racist btches.
^ nice projection, from the insane loser who thinks he coined a fallacy. I guess you did invent the concept, considering how horrible you are at using it, possibly
What’s funny is your denial that Skavau is your buttboy when he’s the chief Sister and you’re his ‘number one’, always defending that woke prick, like when you tried to get that topic which exposed all his dirty tactics removed with false flags… until Mod 5 told you fuck off 🤣
Drop the narcissistic all-caps, apologise for being an authoritarian little shitstain - trying to get my posts banned with a false flagging campaign, stop sexually predating on male users, and stop being a prick… and I’ll consider discussing movies with you.
On the other hand, if it’s true that you hate movies and are only here to flirt with men to satiate your predatory homosexual impulses then reply to this post with the following text:
Diverse cast in Alien check, In Aliens Ripley takes control of the vehicle when the leader of the Marines freezes up, Ripley has to calm Hicks down who is a marine. Vasquez a Hispanic woman maintains composure better than her male colleagues which are Hudson and the leader. Anti corporation message. Do I need to go on?
Um yes it is. You know a woman besting a man with more experience in combat than her were done in a modern film it would be considered woke. Why does Ripley get to best people with more experience than her and it's ok? Why is Hudson a white guy the and the leader a white guy shown to freeze up or be cowardly in tense situations? Vasquez a Hispanic woman and the black searge don't show this type of weakness is this sheer coincidence only white people show weakness? Woke!
It’s adorable watching a low IQ little turd attempt to redefine Woke so that you can slime non-woke films as being so, in the hope of neutralising criticism of the obviously woke Alien Romulus. Unfortunately you’re too fuck-stupid to pull off this Skavau-level basic bitch sophistry.
You know a woman besting a man with more experience in combat than her were done in a modern film it would be considered woke. Why does Ripley get to best people with more experience than her and it's ok?
I notice you don’t present any examples of this. Convenient.
Why is Hudson a white guy the and the leader a white guy shown to freeze up or be cowardly in tense situations?
The presence of two cowardly white men in a large cast which also includes brave and capable white men is not an example of ‘woke’, you dumb shit 🤦🏻♂️
Vasquez a Hispanic woman and the black searge don't show this type of weakness is this sheer coincidence only white people show weakness? Woke!
It might be woke if there weren’t also examples, main characters in fact, who were brave and capable white people. So, once again, FAIL.
Examples of women besting men with more experience than them? Lmao! Did you seriously just ask that? Ok no problem. Rey bests Kylo Ren in the force awakens. He had more experience with the force than her. There is an example dipshit. Why does Rey get flak for that but it's ok for Ripley to do that?
Then why do people label the batman as woke? The main hero is a straight white male. So which is it? Why do people label Spider verse woke? Seems to me woke means whatever you want it to mean. There are brave white men but none of the minority characters are shown to be weak. This is a constant thing you incels label woke.
Oh so then the batman and spider verse aren't woke then? Good to know. Anyways that was easy care to try again? Waxing you was rather easy. Would you like to continue? Scoreboard so far me 1 you 0.
You fucking moron. Where are your examples of Ripley ‘besting a man with more experience’ equivalent to Rey ‘besting’ Kylo Ren? 🤦🏻♂️
Then why do people label the batman as woke?
The Batman is woke for race-swapping several prominent good white characters into minorities, featuring multiple villains… all of whom are white, opening the film with a gang of thugs who encourage one of their own to attack a civilian - all evil thugs are white, the ‘good’ one who doesn’t want to hurt the civilian is black, and most disgustingly features a now black Catwoman complaining about evil ‘white’ elites. It’s woke as shit.
Seems to me woke means whatever you want it to mean.
Only to you, because you’re trying to change the meaning of the word, like a typical dishonest woke fuckwad, and you’re doing a terrible job of it.
There are brave white men but none of the minority characters are shown to be weak. This is a constant thing you incels label woke.

What the fuck are you talking about? You're just having a conversation with the inside of your own butthole 🤷🏻♂️

Um I already told you. Comprehension isn't your thing huh? Ripley has to calm Hudson down an experienced marine, Ripley takes control of the vehicle from the marine leader because he froze. Marines are more experienced than she is. Also nice moving the goal post. Now since you realize I had an example ready you are flailing around like a petulant child. If men get bested by a woman when they have more experience that gets labeled as woke period! Ripley bested people more experienced than her. You sent bench pressing your way out of that.
The colored Thug wasn't good because he was apprehensive about harming the civilian. In the end he was a thug still. Second Catwoman's race isn't essential to her character. This is not the first time she's been portrayed differently. In the year one comic book she wasn't white and Eartha Kitt was not white. Kravitz was modeled after the year one comic book she's a spitting image of that version of Selina Kyle. On average whites have more money than black people. So that is most definitely a privilege. I'm glad a sequel is being made no matter what bitches like you think.
Nope that would be you. Like most incels you don't even know what original meaning of the word is. You have hijacked the word to mean what any incel wants it to. Diversity, woman power etc. You are human garbage. Get off this board. If not provide a clear definition on what it means. Watch you don't because you know you will get dismantled if you do.
You tried to say Aliens wasn't woke because there were capable brave white men. So then if that's the case the batman isn't woke because the main hero is rich, white and straight. Man you got your ass whooped. Step it up bitch boy.
Um I already told you. Comprehension isn't your thing huh?
No, dickhead, this was your example:
Examples of women besting men with more experience than them? Lmao! Did you seriously just ask that? Ok no problem. Rey bests Kylo Ren in the force awakens. He had more experience with the force than her. There is an example dipshit.
Your example was completely irrelevant to what was being discussed you fucking dunce. For the second time, you were asked for an example of Ripley ‘besting a man with more experience’ equivalent to Rey ‘besting’ Kylo Ren. The irony of you criticising someone else’s ‘comprehension’ 🤦🏻♂️
Ripley has to calm Hudson down an experienced marine, Ripley takes control of the vehicle from the marine leader because he froze.
None of this constitutes woke because the film also includes brave and competent white males (as well as incompetent minorities - all of whom die), as we’ve already established you fucking dunce.
Now since you realize I had an example ready you are flailing around like a petulant child.
You just utterly owned yourself, moron, now you’re dancing a pathetic jig to celebrate your own self-administered public humiliation 🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️
The colored Thug wasn't good because he was apprehensive about harming the civilian. In the end he was a thug still. Second Catwoman's race isn't essential to her character.

So after desperately trying to paint Aliens as woke, when it demonstrably isn’t, you now attempt the hilarious feat of denying that The Batman is woke - which it patently is for the reasons I described. Needless to say, you’ve completely failed again, because you lack the IQ necessary to pull off the shady sophistry you’re attempting. Embarrassing.
Nope that would be you. Like most incels you don't even know what original meaning of the word is. You have hijacked the word to mean what any incel wants it to. Diversity, woman power etc. You are human garbage. Get off this board. If not provide a clear definition on what it means. Watch you don't because you know you will get dismantled if you do.
Fucking hell I’ve seen parody accounts that are less mental than this inane playground drivel. Embarrassing.
Watch you don't because you know you will get dismantled if you do.
Is this supposed to be English? WTF are you talking about?
You tried to say Aliens wasn't woke because there were capable brave white men. So then if that's the case the batman isn't woke because the main hero is rich, white and straight
No, Aliens is not woke for the reasons I explained, and The Batman is woke for the specific reasons I explained - not the reasons you pulled out of your ass.
Man you got your ass whooped. Step it up bitch boy.
You have a habit of baiting an argument, getting utterly trounced, falling flat on your face in front of everyone on the site and then proclaiming yourself the winner. You’re a prime example of a wokist - painfully stupid, obnoxious, juvenile and totally narcissistic. Please, showcase more of the woke brain…
And I stated Ripley bested Marines who had more experience than her. That was my example and you missed it dipshit. Let me dumb it down for you. If a woman bests a man with more experience than her that is considered woke. Rey besting Kylo Ren is woke and Ripley besting marines with more experience is no different.
Nope because the batman you consider woke. That has a brave white straight male. You are cherry picking and I'm not buying the bullshit. If Aliens isn't woke than neither is the batman. Someone dying doesn't mean they are incompetent. The minorities are shown as more competent than tons of the white characters.
No I actually bested you and it was easy.
Your concession is noted. The batman isn't woke and you are full of shit. You didn't address my point because it dismantled your bullshit.
You have that room temperature IQ it's rather cute.
Again do you speak English?
Your reasons got dismantled. The point stands Aliens is woke.
Ok now I'm officially bored. You got your ass whooped. Scoreboard me 3 you 0. Your education was free today. Hit me up anytime you need more educating fuckboy.
Having a discussion with you is like playing chess with someone who thinks the way to win is to eat the most pieces. If you ever had a functioning brain, it has long since been raped to death by the woke cult.
Nothing you’re being told over and over is going in, and treating you as an equal is starting to feel like an act of cruelty.
So we’ll leave it here, anything you write in response from now on will be considered an admission of defeat, and an apology to me and everyone else for being an obnoxious, shrieking woke bitch.
