>Ridley Scott returns to the universe he created in ALIEN with ALIEN: COVENANT, the second chapter in a prequel trilogy that began with PROMETHEUS -- and connects directly to Scott’s 1979 seminal work of science fiction. Bound for a remote planet on the far side of the galaxy, the crew of the colony ship Covenant discovers what they think is an uncharted paradise, but is actually a dark, dangerous world -- whose sole inhabitant is the "synthetic" David (Michael Fassbender), survivor of the doomed Prometheus expedition. #Alien

Who HYPE for more based David?

man, Blomkamp's movie will likely have awful writing too, after Elysium and Chappie

We see Scott return to the franchise and visionary Blomkamp's here to give it his own spin and everyone thinks "Alien's saved!" but it isn't. It should just be left alone. It's not a matter of who's doing what, it's a matter of how good their idea was at that moment. Those good ideas are rare.

Originally when making the first film Scott had been saying Prometheus was something related to Alien, but different

But now it's just an Alien film. Because that's what every one wanted from Prometheus. I guess he doesn't have the strength of his convictions

It's annoying, because now it's difficult to organise them in my head. I'd much rather keep the ability to separate this shit, at least a little bit, from the original movies

the Deacon was just a random monster tossed in because it looked cool. It doesn't have or need a backstory, coherent biology, or meaningful place in the story.

If you go back to his earlier statements he insisted it Prometheus wasn't a prequel, that it was just set earlier in the same universe like >>62782542 said, and that the sequel and threequel would diverge further and further from the Alien series. He's completely 180d on both ideas at this point, and rightly so.

No need to argue, it's a known fact what a mess the movie was. Anyone with a brain can watch the movie and realize there are so many fucking problems that it's a wonder the film even got released.

So long as Ridley can get a good script written up, a great cast scraped together, and keep on with his visuals team, I'm good.

And let us pray to the Powers That Be that N.B. doesn't fucking up his Aliens film, and can find a way to tie everything together coherently and bring back Newt, so that we can finally see Alien Outbreak crafted into a film.

He was lucky that most people gave him a pass on Prometheus' many problems because everyone just blamed it on Lindelof. No one is going to want to see the sequel if they know that he just hired some equally bad writers

Prometheus apologists do, and nobody else would be willing to build hype for this movie. Prometheus itself was hyped to shit.

Covenant will probably be great.

Cameron wouldn't let it go that far because he'd rather have tumblrtards idolizing his noble savage planet full of tree-fucking indians.
But a navimorph would be cool and allegedly Cameron's not averse to crossovers.
>>
>>62784615
Don't bother, it's that one autist who shows up in every Alien thread who's convinced that Prometheus is the 2deep4u GOAT movie and anyone who thinks otherwise is a moron. Literally nobody agrees with him.

This new trilogy is good because it shows that the xenomorphs were just a random accident, they aren't a threat to 21st century humans NOW, much less the humans in the Alienverse. They'd suck ass as a bioweapon, nobody would be stupid enough to design that and think it'd work.

Wow, this guy really went down hill after The Duelists. I don't understand how anyone can muster any excitement for the guy. He has made alright movies since Alien. Nothing mind-blowing. Scott seems to be able to handle visuals. Blade Runner has it's moments. He falters when it comes to plotting. Everything just seems to come loose with his films.

Did you even watch any of the original films?
Apparently you didn't pay much attention to Prometheus either - a race of alien demi-gods built murals and statues of the xenomorph out of sheer respect for the power it possesses (see here >>62793086).

Also, we've seen but a fraction of what the xenos are truly capable of.
They are no accident, they are THE perfect organism, able to adapt to and dominate ANY environment.
Perhaps AvP is more your thing, faggot.
