call me brainlet but what the fuck happened?
Prometeus
lots of stupid decisions and a robot that went rogue
A senile director.
>but what the fuck happened?
space axe happened
Hyper boomer director who wanted immortality (and of course died because of it)
Retarded STRONK WOMYN leader who made every bad decision possible
Synth that went rogue (in an Alien film? what a shock!)
People getting fucked up by an ultra-adaptable bio weapon
Ancient race that got wiped out by said bio-weapon telling humans to fuck off back to their shithole planet
It's not that complex, I don't know why people shit their pants and find trouble understanding it
ruining a franchise
also I didn't get the the correlation between the black goo + human or the engineer. He died at first, the the faggot became a super wrestler but wait there's more, the squid + engineer = (proto)xenomorph
GOO.
A geologist standing in a rock tunnel says there are no rocks so he’s going back to the ship.
A biologist deciding to play with a fucking alien cobra thing despite not knowing anything about it.
Those two bug me the most.
Black goo is magic. Nano-machine magic, but still magic.
Yeah, you're a brainlet. Most people are when it comes to Prometheus. It's the most kino movie, and possibly even the best piece of overall media, in the entire Alien franchise.
as dumb as prometheus and covenant were, I did like Prometheus desu senpai, they would both pretty fun theater going experiences
the alien snake worm would have made 1% more sense if the deleted scene if him finding the little ones and taking them as samples was left in. stupid cut imo
robot bad
Scott shouldn't have made it into a horror/Aliens movie. It should have been it's own universe and focused more on the exploration/awe and wonder side like The Abyss.
You missed the bit where it said their suits were EXO SUITS capable of hundreds of pounds of pressure per square inch.
Saying Scientist aren't stupid bothers me highly because they are stupid. They're as dumb as anybody. Because they have a degree in leet doesn't make them gods.
>Entirety of Alien is about people being mad at violation of safety procedures
>the most low life and brutish character Parker proposes most reasonable solutions
>nobody objects anything in Prometheus
biologist are like that though
You won't go and pet king cobra or polar bear.
How did it ruin the franchise? Wasn’t it already ruined in Alien Resurrection? Or perhaps Alien 3, it wasnt too good
to be fair, they cut 2 minutes of dialogue that would have explained all of that, in a futile attempt to make to make a blockbuster action scifi franchise entry seem more ambiguous and artsy.
>Damon Lindelof
A really bad movie
Look up what grey goo is in a grey goo event. This is just that, but organic instead of silicon and black instead of grey.
It turns anything it touches into something disastrous.
why didn't she run out of the rolling ship's path
Nonsense. Prometheus was ghastly but it was okay. Not great but all to terrible either. Covenant is literally Ripley shatting the bed.
The ship was nearly twenty yards across, and the scene, which is tittled debris, was literally that; tons of molten plasma falling like rain everywhere else other than the foot fall of the rolling ship. September 11, no one zig zags and everyone runs in the foot fall of the collapsing building, COINCIDENCE?
*all and all not to terrible
as shit as this movie was, it had nice visuals and it's the only film I know of to mention PIE, and even have lines in it
I'm still mad Noomi wasn't in Covenant and basically how shoddily the whole Prometheus franchise was handled
that senile old boomer should never be allowed to direct again.
Ridley Scott suffers from the Lucas disease where he is burdened with the desire to go back and redo his 'classic' works. Basically he views his earlier work like Alien to be all style and no substance, so he wanted to remake Alien with a more robust plot and meaning, he learned from Lucas that going and 'editing' the originals pisses people off so he decided to go the prequel route and retcon all the shit he didn't like about his earlier masterpiece. He of course did this in the most retarded way possible, he literally just took the story of Prometheus and set it in space with some throwback imagery to the original Alien that makes no sense given the chronological order of the films. It was an obvious and vain attempt to inject some greater meaning and symbolism into a story about a spooky alien.
Lindelof gets a ton of the blame, and he deserves it for being an unironic hack, but Scott is the one hellbent on destroying his own image for some reason.
After seeing many recent threads criticizing both Prometheus and Covenant, I watched both and came to realize that many of this board's users are mentally retarded.
you all got pleb filtered
Imagine if that movie was about humans encountering living Giger world of Space Jockeys, instead of big humans in rubber suits inside rock castles.
With all nightmare deviant imagery, biomechanical sex, rape and all good stuff.
Maybe one day this film would be made.
I appreciate you user. Good day sir
A bunch of scenes with hardly anything to do with each other stuck toghether. It's a mess. The movie does not have a set of rules that it follows, so it's a convoluted mess.
why was there modern wheat on that alien planet? did she fucking smuggle seeds onto that alien ship or some shit?
t. Ridley Scott.
>scientists take off their helmet because they detect oxygen
Covenant is actually an improvement from the clusterfuck that was Prometheus. ll this engineers things was trash and he knew it, that's why he nuked them before the film started.
Honestly I have no idea how Ridley Scott thinks. He's one of the most bizarre filmmakers.
A couple of hundred years of creation science and it makes sense.
Go to bed, Ridley. You are senile.
Charles Theron ran in a straight line
Look at this uneducated fuck projecting, look at him and LAUGH
Exactly
How could I be Ridley Scott? How? I spelled realize with a z.
