    ALIEN / PROMETHEUS / COVENANT - SPOILERS INBOUND!!

    in General Banter

    I like District 9 partially because it took some risks & wasn't all hollywood like - main dude is a wimpy moustachioed guy & kind of a huge prick for most of the film, & by the end of it he's a big weird monster living on top of a garbage heap & nothing's been resolved for him. You sympathize with the aliens even though they're big weird monsters who kill people & buy hookers & eat catfood. If I remember correctly the soundtrack mostly consists of whatever happens to be blaring out of random nearby radios.

    I can't really objectively rank sci-fi movies in one list. Like, The Matrix/The Thing/District 9 are really clever concepts & fun to watch, Ghost in the Shell/Akira are weird beasts full of amazing visuals & music, & Pi is basically as close to IDM The Movie as we'll get until they make a movie about Aphex Twin teaming up with Ulillillia to create a generative music algorithm that creates basslines dirty enough to overthrow the skrillexian empire

     

    And I dug Prometheus/had a few problems with it for reasons people have established many times in this thread. I can't say which sci-fi movie I like best because there's a bunch I like for different reasons

    one thing i noticed in alien recently is that when they discover aliens you have no idea if this culture has known about other alien life before. they don't mention it being first contact i don't think. so you have no idea if this is blowing their minds or just another slightly different alien. correct me if i'm wrong there

    Noticed that too. I watched the entire quadrilogy recently & can't remember any point at which someone mentioned known extraterrestrial lifeforms, or alternatively was all like HOLY SHIT IT'S AN ALIEN

    The director's cut will be called Drometheus. The main differences will be a Rastafarian hat with fake dreds photoshopped onto the Engineer, who is in possession of a magical green goo, & people will be all like

    have you ever got so high

    your brain made aliens

     

    edit: also instead of sports music the soundtrack will be ska

    I find the junkier my studio gets the more tracks I make. Like right now the entire floor is covered in a layer of cardboard boxes with things painted on them, ukuleles, microeconomics textbooks (not sure where those came from but I use them to support my florescent light tube along with a broken accordion & a vcr), a banjo, several ties, & organized Tupperware containers filled with animal bones I found

     

    and I'm making a shitload of tracks
