Alien Covenant / Prometheus / Aliens / AvP / Discussion Thread

It also stopped being GOOD, since Aliens. :coffee:

Mags is in this? gonna have to watch it now.

are you crazy Aliens is still the best out of all of them

Magneto better ROM some niggas

That’s what I meant.

Since Aliens came out, it has been all down hill.

He said there might be 2 androids in the movie. From the trailer it makes sense to see that one guy jumping on someone, could be of the androids

There are androids in the movie? Has me worried it could be trying to follow aliens footsteps too much… (but its a prequel so it technically can’t :o… head explodes)

You have to remember that at one time the androids had an uprising of some sort it was loosely brought up in a couple of the movies.

What OZ said. It’s a thought-provoking existential story, that’s basically it. If anyone calls BR the GOAT it’s because of the production design. The detail put into every shot and every prop is mind-blowing. At the same time, the detail of the fully realized city kind of works against against the story’s favor, since there are so many wide shots of the scenery instead of staying locked on the main characters and main plot.

It’s not the greatest sci-fi work ever but it’s been hugely influential in film and elsewhere. BR (and other stuff like the Neuromancer novel) has become the archetype for cyberpunk, dystopia and sci-fi noir.

On that note I’m out this spoilerific thread.

PS. If you didn’t know already, Android OS and Nexus smartphones are named after BR (android was the book’s term for replicant).

Watch the vid I posted, he talks about it

Pause it right around 2:03 to 2:06 and you can clearly see the tail of a facehugger sliding into the Space Jocky’s suit.

I can’t - not stop watching these trailers dammit!

Charlize Theron

Spoiler

After watching that last trailer, I’ve only just noticed how tall she is compared to some of the others, she also man handles one of the male characters. So I’m now at the conclusion she is the other android. It makes perfect sense actually that she would be the android since she is the one set to oversee everything.

They’ve shown too much, but I’m only getting more and more excited

Same here.

BTW I already suspected that much about her from the start. The only thing that threw me off slightly was the naked pushups.

why dont they just release the damn film already :annoy:

Where the Hell do u live, my aunt and dad use to take me to all kinds or rated r movies

2012 is going to be a great move year but nothing besides maybe TDKR has me as hyped.

Scott+sci fi shit=fuck yeah. Any news on him directing The Forever War? that is really the only thing that can top Prometheus assuming it’s half as good as the trailers promise.

You not an Avengers fan?

Saw the trailer for Total Recall yesterday, looks much better than I expected but saying that it didn’t exactly reveal much either.
