>You’re shooting Alien: Covenant right now. What can you tell us about it?

>I’m the pilot of the spaceship Covenant, which is a colonization ship, searching for a planet where we might start life anew. I run the ship.

>Are you in a harness for eight hours a day, yelling at a green screen?

>No, I didn’t know if it would be all green screen, but most of the stuff is practical effects: when you’re running from an alien it’s really a dude in an alien suit coming after you! The sets are incredible and you’re in them: We go through some inclement weather at one point on the spaceship and this whole gigantic set is on a gimbal, shaking up and down. You don’t have to use your imagination.

>What’s the most impressive thing about Ridley Scott?

>He’s got so much energy, and he shoots everything with four cameras. We move through stuff fast. When I got here some people said, “Oh man, he does two takes, three takes, tops,” but I love it. It creates this attitude on set of, like, “You better fucking come with it because you’ve got two shots — you better bring it.”

Please let Danny play Eastbound and Down in a blooper while at the controls

This is why I hate Kubrick. Any guy that tries something and says "wait wait, I can do it wait" isn't a professional. This is why I liked Hitchcock more, he would allow actors to take their time and not ride their ass if they didn't do it to his imagination. If it takes and actor longer or shorter to go through lines and get to his marks that's how long that person would take to do it.

That's simple. Either get better actors or learn human behaviour better.

Just rehearse them, just like a play.
It saves you time and money for a start. And you get more spontaneity.

Scott could be pretty Kubrickautist in the early days wanting dozens of takes for Blade Runner and others
>>
>>71735212
>>71735027
how?
Are you refering to the bad plot and dialogue in Prometheus?
That had nothing to do with how few or how many takes you could do of a scene
You do know what a take is, right?

>>71735092

Well if you look back at the original Alien they were a goofy bunch too, kind of what you expect from space truckers, though no idea if that's what Danny's character is.

I hope they dont go full retard with characters like in Prometheus. Like instead of Danny being dumb comic relief that dies, itd be cool to see him as more of a brave, family man type dude or something that actually gets a chance to be heroic. Ridley Scott goes for cliche roles only now though

>>71736292
That's just from a DLC that lets you act out part of the original movie. The game itself is set between the original and Aliens, as Ripley's daughter dragged to a partially decommissioned space station due to a potential lead on what happened to the Nostromo.

Is it to much to hope its just Kenny Powers in space?

Level with me, how good is Eastbound and Down, I got a weird love/hate with Danny McBride but I thought he was a welcome fit to Land of the Lost and I've seen some clips, though that had Will Ferrell in it.
>>
>>71735092
He usually plays funny roles but he can do serious roles really well too.
>>
>>71737032
Well it does a pretty outstanding job of immersing you in the setting and is one of the only good horror games in years. There's a lot to get out of it as a /v/ermin that loves Alien but I'm not entirely sure how well it would work for somebody who just loves Alien. Well, if you can find a reasonably priced copy for you platform of choice I'd certainly go for it.

Prometheus says to narrative conventions "fuck off, this is kino, you are not getting the answers you seek here".

And I applaud Scott for it. Prometheus is about the futility of asking questions, the impossibility of understanding god. Its no surprise your questions werent answered. That was the point of the movie, to show that there is stuff that is not possible to comprehend. You cannot understand god.

10/10 underrated kino film

Wrong!!! Isolation is the sequel to Alien we deserved.

Colonial Marines is a sequel to Aliens...and it shows.

There are 2 groups of Alien products

Good horror ones

its hilarious to see people talk about video games like this is the first time period that alien video games were made

the entire fucking metroid series was a direct spiritual successor to Alien. The most well known Alien game was an arcade game from the 90s. There have been dozens of alien games or alien-inspired games, most of which appeared before you were even born
>>
>>71740230
Considering Im 35 I doubt it. But back to the topic, those old games never had the atmosphere or the technology to present themselves as part of a cinematic universe.

I guess Aliens the computer game 1986 was a nice try.

3 (directors cut) is a great movie.
>>
>>71740309
I find your statement completely arbitrary

what is it about this time period that would suggest these games have more authenticity?

they're going to look and feel like absolute garbage 20 years from now, even more so that the stylized games of the past, since the current ones are actually trying to look like reality (and failing even by our current standards) or duplicating existing styles, rather than developing their own artistic style

>This is why I liked Hitchcock more, he would allow actors to take their time and not ride their ass if they didn't do it to his imagination.

And this opinion here shows that you don't have the faintest idea how Hitchcock worked with actors. You haven't read a single interview, haven't read a single book about him, haven't seen any behind the scenes footage. He was often excessively cruel against his actors, would manipulate them, would belittle them, would do all kinds of circus tricks to get a performance out of them. He borderline sexually harassed some of them, Tippi Hedren being one of the most famous examples. It was fucking Hitchock who said that actors "should be treated like cattle".

Eastbound and Down is among the funniest, and most consistent, comedies of the past 10 years.

McBride is absolutely unapologetic, and committed to the jokes, and it's this commitment that makes them work far more often than not.

Combine McBride's delivery with a cast that includes Will Ferrell (who is fucking ridiculous), Craig Robinson (another great comedic actor), and eventually, Don Johnson and Lilly Tomlin, and you've got the makings of some pretty good comedy.

Glad to see McBride got the role, as at least they'll be one good thing about this trainwreck.

We know next to nothing about the film besides a few concepts that could not even be used and a few ideas from cast members(who all seem to like the premise). It's way too early to be forming opinions, but I have hope it'll be good after the shitfests that were 3 and Resurrection.

It doesn't matter it diminishes the threat of the Alien. Ripley had to sacrifice everything to just to be on equal footing and she ended up losing her life to stop them. Having Newt, Hicks and Ripley continue the fight in another epic gun battle makes the franchise look ridiculous. Alien Isolation did it right. We don't need another Starship troopers knock off. That's not what Alien is about.

How? She, Newt, and Hicks barely escaped with their lives after losing everyone who came with them. Hicks was physically scarred. Ripley and Newt have emotional scars that wont ever fully heal.

>Ripley had to sacrifice everything to just to be on equal footing and she ended up losing her life to stop them.
Whos to say she wont die in this film too?

>Having Newt, Hicks and Ripley continue the fight in another epic gun battle makes the franchise look ridiculous.
Where is it said they'll fight an epic gun battle?

>Alien Isolation did it right.
And this film(which hasn't even begun production) won't because it isnt copping out like Alien 3 did? Stop making retarded assumptions based on bare-bones information.

>We don't need another Starship troopers knock off. That's not what Alien is about.
Where is it implied that Blomkamp is doing anything like that?

I don't like let alone trust Blomkamp. He's a mediocre director and an even worse screenwriter overhyped by a bunch of geeks. All of his movies, including District 9, are visually trivial, unoriginal sci-fi stories buried under twenty feet of hamfisted political/social "messages".

It's not shoehorning Ripley into a script if the script is being written as a sequel to a film she's in. The main films are about Ripley anyways.
