Missing cutscene? (spoiler for stage 2)
Season 2 gets worse and worse each episode.
Online play: Wait for 3 or just start when one joins?
No men lead anymore, are there?
I find the "plot twist"/ surprise at the end of episode 6 just annoying. (Spoiler)
Season 5 on DVD/ blu-ray?
No one discussing the new information about the aliens?`
Second best Alien movie.
Ekkokammer 18.
The "moral panic" were right.

We are all insane.
I try to watch as little from conservativeINC as possible. That is all from Daily Wire.
I recommend Mark Dice and RamzPaul. That is my go to conservative commentators.
I think there were plenty of good moments in season 4. But defending that show here, when there already is an arrested development forum here, is pointless.
I guess I am just a bigger fan of Arrested Development than you are *smug smile*
The boat scene at the end was suppose to prove the joker wrong. Batman did what he did, following a code. Then Joker lost because people in the end DIDNT do what he thought they would do (kill each other given the chance).
Is that why I stopped laughing at Arrested Development season 5? I am currently watching it now, and I so rarely laugh at it, while I distinctly remember laughing at season 1, 2, 3, yes even 4. But the 5th? So rarley.
Yes, that must be it. I just dont get the jokes.
Or... or... or... Maybe... "awkward" and "quirky" jokes are jokes for conformist teenagers desperately dreaming of NOT being just like everybody else who´s only trait are crippling social anxiety. So the only jokes they get are characters having endless wordsalads over and over again.
There are many who have pointed out Disney Marvels tonedeaf jokes that makes everything suspenceful or dramatic fall flatt.
I was amazed to watch Garduians of the Galaxy vol 3 and feel real emotions again. And not just numbness.
You cant have big emotional moments when quirky characters will have a word salad every other minute.
GotG somehow found back the CORRECT blend between funny, suspensful and dramatic. Most Disney Marvel is low stakes (although the world is at the brink of destruction every movie), pointless characters who survive anything until the scriptwriter thinks "Someone should die here because that would be drama, right", and the other writer says "but dont forget to joke about it or something, or the teenagers will snart to look at tiktok again".
I am just so effing tired of the quirky jokes. I dont find that type of humor funny and it destroys any suspence.
I guess I am getting too old for these types of movies, but I dont understand why people want to look at comic book comedies. Isnt it suppose to be high stakes not a buddy comedy. Every joke in the trailer made me cringe.
I dont get it.
Perhaps its for the best that they looked like that though. The concept is asbract anyways. Perhaps making it look like that makes it look more unreal and unfathomable?
We can disagree on what is the best alien movie. Some like the first, others the second, third. People may even speak nostalgic of Resurrection (some seem to say the new born is one of the creepiest aliens in the franchise).
But what I find annoying is how people casually makes fun of the third as a bad movie. Just the other day I saw a youtuber called Heavy Spoilers talking about the alien franchise and just casually dropping how bad the third one is.
Why the third one? Isnt Resurrection also "bad". Now I like the 4th one too. I see it has aestetic and entertaining merits, but the plot is paperthin at times. Its no where NEAR Alien 3. But Alien 3 "because they killed hicks and newt" is the worst movie in the franchise.
That is a STFU moment for me. But if you love Aliens I can get that, although I see Aliens as Ant-iens where "the perfect organism" became cannon fodder. That doesnt mean I dont like it, but if I were master of the franchise I may have done some explaining of how the aliens in Aliens are second generation xenomorphs or something. Having more human DNA than the one in the first.
Meaning: The dad took an alien from the derelict, that one got out, became a queen (first gen) and what it produced was second gen, more ant like xenos. (Yes, I have given this some thought. I saw this movie 30 years ago).
Update: The queen really should be second gen xeno too. I really didnt like that idea either. It was part of the Xeno-ant understanding of Aliens.
Its called aging. She is 59 years old.
