Mix Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 Believe it or not, never watched any of these except maybe Alien vs Predator...if that counts.... Just finished Prometheus and i've got some questions...just gonna look up the answers instead of asking them here though...

Mix Posted October 1, 2017 Author Share Posted October 1, 2017 Before I begin let me just say that the character Maggie Faris was an especially useless piece of crap....she was just as compromised as the other lady and she basically sentenced that chick to death...still went in anyway after that chick was mauled and ended up screwing herself over...especially stupid when you consider these guys are supposedly trained to handle this shit anyway, alien: covenant was not bad....kinda saw it all coming except how it all ended for Shaw, but still good watch there's supposed to be a third prequel, but i'm not waiting for it to come out...moving on the Alien Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phillies Posted October 7, 2017 Share Posted October 7, 2017 Yeah probably... I dug the characters in the 3rd more though. None of the fans are satisfied with 3. Certain questions never got answered- and prometheous and covenant shouldn't be canon. The movie can't live up to the quality of 1 & 2. The script and the actors are decent that is all.

Phillies Posted October 8, 2017 Share Posted October 8, 2017 why not? David the robot created the first Alien.. which is silly. I personally don't take the prequels to be canon. In my mind what the series needs is a better conclusion in 3. Resurrection had too much satire in it - out of character for the series.

Resurrection had too much satire in it - out of character for the series. he didn't create them, clearly, the engineers did.....he just used their already adaptive capabilities to make them into the version we know... do you prefer the AVP backstory...they removed it as cannon....

Ok answer me this, who put the first derelict craft on LV426 in the first movie? Who made those eggs? Was that suppost to be David who put that there somehow? I only consider the events in 1 & 2 canon, and maybe the 3rd movie, fuck everything else... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
