List Covenant's signs that tell it's going to be a shitty movie

The ones I noticed:

"Listen, no sound" - because surveying a planet from its orbit to determine if it has animals or indeed the possibility of intelligent life forms on it [and this can also be done from a long distance] is such a hassle.

"Human vegetation" instead of "Earth like vegetation". Hurraaah for Human-Carrots and Onion-People

Gay people to colonize a planet. Because in the future Men can have babies through their asses.

Ripley's mommy. Because the whole Universe hates a still to be born random woman.

Crappy looking condom head white alien CGI

Cliches. Cliches everywhere.

They are still looking in the pods. Stop looking in the pods already

Oh hell, I know exactly what is going to happen, but even I am not sure I would resist taking a little peek.

yeah, I think it is going to be Prometheus 2 ... twice as stupid.

Well, putting David's head back was already a stupid move.

The fact that this movie is predicated on the actions of Dr. Shaw is reason enough not to hold your breadth. Charlize Theron killing Dr Shaw then hijacking the Derelict ship with David's help would have been a more enticing spectacle. Instead, we have a social justice warrior scientist and her passive-aggressive C3P0 reeking havoc in "paradise".

for sure.

Two words: Danny McBride. How are we supposed to take this movie seriously if he's starring in it?

The biggest sign? The first part (Prometheus) was utter shit. To be fair, I saw the cut out scenes from Prometheus and many things made a lot more sense, but the original theatrical release was utter crap.

I lost count the times I rolled my eyes while watching Prometheus.
