Fuck!

cunt!

[GORDO]

studio strong armed ridley to make a generic alien movie by threatening to take the franchise away from him and give it to Blomkamp

[keanu reeves]

maybe!

[digit]

this is just course correcting after the negative reaction to Prometheus. so they sort of continue on with the Prometheus storyline but incorporate a lot more traditional Alien elements in the mix. everything they've relased so far regarding Covenant (the poster, the trailers) has basically been shouting "hey everybody! there are old-skool style aliens in this one!"

 

that trailer revealed so damn much about the movie. you can already see how its going to go. i'm sure this will be better than Prometheus but nowhere near as good as Alien & Aliens.

 

in terms of visual fx & design it looks great, but that is par for the course these days with big budget films.

Alien at the end of the trailer looks like a coffee table edition of the alien (his body has a shape of a coffee table, innit)

[keanu reeves]

i'm wondering why there's a weird mini alien then a full grown one. i guess they have an extra stage of evolution now for no reason. also the idea of a backburster is the dumbest thing ever. 

[olo]

uhmmm....ok. From the trailers, I didn't notice many "real" aliens.

 

 

This is a film and Ridley, he loves to do things in camera, so the more we can do… He doesn’t like CG blood. He doesn’t like CG effects. He likes it to complement the work that we do and to do set extensions, but he loves realism. He wants a real alien running around the spaceship and stuff like that.”

Just read a thing quoting Ridley (79 years old) as saying he could do six more films in the franchise. Not going to even link it, it's so ridiculous. He's fucking lost any brain he ever had.

a movie about a director with terminal cancer who needs to ruin as many franchises as he can.

Who & why designed the chest-burster? 

 

It's just gonna be David because he developed some stupid god complex and views androids as the next bastard step in evolution. His stupid lab is pictured below.

And if this ain't right, it's gonna be something equally as stupid.

Why does this franchise even need more canon? Just keep doing the Lovecraft in space thing.

OMG - you are probably right. If it turns out a human-created android created the Aliens we know as Aliens (Xenomorphs)... Ridley needs to just retire at this point, IMO.

Looks like they cribbed from Westworld - is that an AMD processor they are putting into him @ 2:27? LOL

 

EDIT: LOL, it is! Fucker probably overheats all the time

Wouldn't that involve time travel? Also it would make it patently absurd that Weyland is funding missions to find something he already indirectly created.

How's time travel involved? Prometheus/Covenant takes place before the first Alien movie...

doesn't weyland die in avp?

[goDel]

Looks like scott doing a verhoeven. Scott might be going for the critical satire angle on this one. (Read: i dont know where the fck he is going, apart from prolly not the direction from the available clips...)
