the design of the alien unambiguously improved, and it was the best incarnation of the xenomorph

also the alien queen, a fucking masterpiece

don't get butthurt just because it was a different genre of movie

FUCK MEW

MEW SUCKS

GENDER SWAPPING THE THING FOR A CURRENT YEAR REMAKE WAS TRASH, IT BOMBED HARD

ALSO THE CGI WAS AN ANATHEMA TO THE FAMOUS PRACTICAL EFFECTS OF THE ORIGINAL

EVERYTHING ABOUT THAT MOVIE WAS CANCER
>>
Stoked for this as well! Prometheus was awesome in that it has breathed new life in to this franchise (instead of the umpteen number of AvP abortions)

The queen looks like shit 2bh.
It's also less frightening that classic anthropomorph creature.
If Fincher had made the movie he wanted to do with a proper cut it xoumd have been better than Aliens

Actually I don't mind the action, but the concept of the queen and how they changed the looks and behavior of the Alien creature

>>71478295
I don't like the insect-like head structure and a extra pair of arms of the queen, the only redemming part is the high heels.
>>
>>71478775

i take it you're a fan of nezumi's alien queen then

I've forgot about it, thanks anon. Also, haven't a version of the alien with lips and stuff been considered to be in one of the movies?

I personally like the game's one, mainly when the light's just right and you can see under the dome

The writing is what made Prometheus bad. Lindelof is out. John Logan is the writer now, and he wrote Gladiator. This gives me serious hope that it'll be good.
>>
>>71476543
>>no Damon Lindelof

THIS. Literally everything he touches turns to dogshit.
>>
>>71480643
Gladiator is ok in writing. It was Crowe's improvise speech that improved it.
>>
If you were going to rewatch the entire Alien series (sans the vs. Predator ones), would you watch Prometheus first or last?
>>
>>71482645

Oh shut the fuck up. Credit the writer and filmmakers for the film. Crow didn't improvise the character, history, motivation, conflict, tone, environment, etc. etc.
>>
>>71483247
yes he did
>>
>>71482969

Prometheus should be watched last even though it chronologically takes place first.

Keep in mind this isn't really a series in the traditional sense. It's just a bunch of different filmmakers putting their stamp on the same concept with a small bit of continuity between them. Watching the four Alien movies in a row isn't really any kind of complete story, it's just four similar horrific events happening to the same woman in a row without any real rhyme or reason.

Two viewing experiences that actually make sense:

Scott's Alien > Scott's Prometheus: same filmmaker revisiting the world he created for a prequel and ignoring all other installments

Scott's Alien > Cameron's Aliens: different filmmaker making a DIRECT sequel and building on the previous ideas but taking them in a new direction (action instead of horror).
