this is bad, this is probably even worse then allien resurrection. its plain boring, with boring and annoying characters that nobody cares about. doing the same thing over and over that all alien movies did before and brining nothing new to the table. all its is is a rehash of the first movie only the first movie was actually interesting to watch and this one isnt.

at least promotheus was different, at least promeheus brought something new to the franchise.

those last alien movies are the same formula over and over. and this movie is boring. it dosent even start up untill 40 minutes in, have bunch melodramatic idiots who are angry about the android that he dident opened the door for the xenormorph to come in. bunch of nonsense. what real humans will act like that?

ho yeah and dont get me started on that android and his bad acting.

this movie is a snooze fest. that try to reash the first movie for nostalgia

Btw, no Alien movies are bad. This one was just an average; a needless inclusion and essentially a remake of Alien: Resurrection (space station researching Xenomorphs, Intruders with a good robot arriving and an Alien baby expelled out of space). I watched it again, but wasn't that much of an entertainer and fell flat except the adrenaline Elevator shaft scene. The Alien baby design was lame and bringing out engineer's feature was a lame idea which they did just to tie up with Prometheus.

This move did nothing except raising appreciation for the Prequel series which tried to do something new and expanded the universe getting away from the over-played Xenomorphs.

I like your outlook. Pretty much how I feel. One of those series where even the worst entry, whatever one may feel it to be, is still an entertaining two hours. I generally feel the vast majority of movies have the potential to be entertaining if you allow yourself to enjoy it without being too critical.

That said, it very much feels like the Terminator: Dark Fate of its franchise

Agree!

And the opening scene is still a facepalm situation for me. Stumbling upon the Xenomporph floating around the Nostromo remains discarding the fact that the Nostromo parts would have been speeding at thousands of kms/per second in all directions after that massive nuclear self-destruct explosion.

Which is very true. One just has to accept that you shouldn't over-think these movies, just enjoy them.

Like, are we accepting these movies as fiction anyway, or absolute truth? None will beat the original anyway, ever, imo

Are you including Prometheus in this, one of the worst films ever made?

[–] Druff (1845) 2 months ago

I can somewhat get behind this. For me, the real crux is that the original Alien 1979 just towers over every other movie in the franchise. It stands alone. Even Aliens, great as it may be, gets lumped in with 3, Resurrection, Prometheus, etc. I think they're all relatively enjoyable to watch, but none come close to touching the original.
