Sorry about my 'man cold' voice but I just wanted to express some thoughts on the latest two images dropped and probably my last Alien Romulus update before we get a full trailer. Despite my scepticism, I am actually really looking forward to viewing an Alien film once more in the cinema and I truly hope for the best. Hindsight will probably play a part with this particular films as I am sure the initial reaction from seeing this film will need an amount of analysis. Stay tuned for more information and a review on this critical addition the the Alien franchise.
Loving your content fella, subbed. 👏👍
@@austenpowers Yeah baby yeah ✌Appreciate it buddy.
Why is she the only one carrying the futuristic assault rifle and not the synthetic step brother?
Ripley copy cats.
Ridley, now Fede
"This movie will succeed, What can go wrong?"
@@MarcusWright-uc7zs I can only imagine that she finds this rifle on board. Strange that only her takes a pulse rifle with them from their home world.
2:00...Fede Alverez's "encyclopedic knowladge" of the Alien franchise is the only thing giving me hope for this one...its quite well known that he's a massive fan of the Alien films and he did do a pretty good job with Evil Dead 2013 ...I think if this film does bomb it will probably have more to do with " the powers that be and disneys box ticking " instead of Alverez's story and directing ...Great video 👍
Yeah well if it does bomb, you can be sure I will do my best to find out why as the last person has will blame initially will be Fede. I think most of us have a basic knowledge of how corporate cinema works these days and isn't always good
Can't bomb really cause it wasn't meant for cinema release in its budget! Was intended for straight to streaming. But deemed too good so got a cinema release date instead!
@@jackmullin8962 true. I believe 40m USD was the initial budget but no doubt it came to slightly more. It will easily make it's money back then but will we feel the restriction or will it feel cinematic? 🤔
Be good if at least one of the cast could come near the performance of Lambert - but i imagine they'll be too cool, lack passion ...
My hopes were dashed significantly when I saw the casting choices. Not a fan of 18-22 year olds in space bs. I know there's a lot of praise for Féde but this really feels like a Féde choice. Literally teeny bopper horror.
Sigourney was 28 when she filmed Alien. So…
I think cailey is the same age as Ripley when she filmed Alien but I get your meaning as I know all the fast are young instead of mixed ages. It all hinges on Fede's ability to make it work and for Disney not to have interfered lol
@@patrickdavis7368 28 vs 18 or even 22 is quite a significant difference.
odd choice i thought. comes across like a gimmick and i'm expecting awful dialogue
@@patrickdavis736829
I can't wait to get a full trailer
I might have to review it in 2 parts as I always seem to end up spewing out more than I intend haha. I think it will be an exciting moment when it drops and we really get a sense of what is coming
I think the next trailer is in June or July
@@alexhein6386 Yeah I would assume June. July seems to close to release. It will be an exciting day, I hope!
Hey, I'm just glad we're getting to see the new movie, Whether it's Good, or Bad, or Just Okey, I just hope it's a great Movie.
Yeah, I'm also very excited to see it and don't believe we've seen any evidence to say it will be bad so far, only the experience of being let down too many times for these highly anticipated big films.
It doesnt look like a hive,if you look closely at the middle it looks more like a steel part of the ship that somethin big smashed through or smashed into,the dent in it resembles a Zenomorphs head.
Exactly, maybe we were shown this to throw people off as if you look quickly you would just assume it was a hive.
The obsessive concerns on here with the weaponry being toted tell me I'm too old for this.
You never know, Romulus may cater to the folks that were there for Alien in 1979 as well 👍
I think many of us consider the first two movies pretty much perfect, so it's gonna be hard to top or get even close. Thus far Féde is saying the right things, but I'm not sure that getting Scott & Cameron's blessings is necessarily a good thing. They've both changed a lot the last couple of decades, and not for the better imo. My first impression of the Romulus cast is not great, but I assume they're all good actors that were hired for the right reasons (...) so in the end it will come down to the script and direction.
Yes, I'm trying hard to lower my expectations so I don't get super disappointed once again 😂
Yeah it's difficult to get too hyped because the more I think about it the more my mind travels back to the golden age of innovative horror films from whence Alien and Aliens were birthed. Romulus is a modern addition to the franchise and should be able to stand in its own two feet and bring something new to the table without clinging into nostalgic fan service. I just hope it does. I agree what you say with the decline of Ridley and Cameron, sort of 😉. I enjoy watching the Avatar films in cinema but apart from the technology, there isn't much else going on if I'm honest. Then there is Ridley who every now and then hits a home run but then Napoleon almost made me fall asleep haha.
I would think the backpack device is most likely a flamethrower, though it does lack a visible pilot light; could still use a self-igniting accelerant like TEAL or whatnot though, or maybe the pilot light is within the muzzle somehow. Otherwise, the speculation about an acid sprayer from Out Of The Shadows (I only listened to the audiobook, and didn't recall it, but I've seen it mentioned as a mining device used in a makeshift fashion) could be an interesting item though presumably the xenomorphs would be acid-proof as shown in AVP anyhow.
Hmm, well the rumours were that it can freeze enemies but I can only imagine that looking silly in my head haha.
@@ENTERTAINtheDUDE yeah, might needs Arnold to play that Batman villain again. ;p
I saw Alien in 70mm in 1979. It was amazing and is made me rethink wanting to explore space. However the critics of the day were pretty brutal on it. The lines were mumbled, there was no character development, it was just a haunted house in space, etc. Over the years Alien has become iconic since those, like myself, grew up after seeing it. Are the newer films worse? I think if I saw Covenant in 1979, and it was a stand alone film without any preamble. I think it would be every bit as freaky as Alien. What messes all these films up is that they are sequels and prequels. That creates nearly an impossible job not matter who the writer is, the director is, etc. Aliens worked since it did not attempt to give you a back story and a sequel. The only backstory was Alien and that was it. The biggest failure of Aliens was the reduction of Aliens to basically big insects. With each iteration the Alien was further reduced until it was just a gimmic produced by man. And the anthrocentric nature of the universe triumphs again, putting humans in the center of everything.
Wise thoughts on this subject matter. I also have looked on these creatures as very mysterious beings that are part of a history in the universe far bigger than us, almost like they exist beyond the films. Sadly, the films as you say have weighed them down with egotistical human characteristics in my opinion. I realise that AI and greed always played a part of the films that gave them drama but the incredible secrets that the space jockey had died with will always be the most fundamental aspect to Alien in my opinion.
I feel like this has a kinda mixed vibe between Aliens and Aliens Resurrection
I know what you mean but hopefully if it's going to go in the direction of science, research and actual resurrection then let it please retain some mystery as an Alien film should.
They need to get this right. These films haven't been the same since. Aliens I hope they prove me wrong and it's worth paying good money to go and see.
I'll be there day one and hopefully can see it on the biggest screen possible. I'll also be interested to see those early reviews on RT.
Thank the gods for a non-shill like analysis of this upcoming Disney film, a refreshing take considering the state of YT reviewers these days.
But let's not forget that this is first and foremost a Disney film.
This is the first strike against this next iteration of a beloved franchise.
Second is the quite obvious casting choice to emulate the cast of ALIEN but falls way short because the actors all look look like teens simply because this film is targeted for a Gen-Z audience.
Third Strike, and I'm so OUT by now, is the highly rumored connection to David and ALIEN COVENANT.
It's seeming more likely by the day that this film is reinforcing the ideas introduced by Barmy-Ridley in PROMETHEUS and COVENANT and, whilst nostalgia baiting us with news that Big Chappie makes a return, we're still being anchored to the nonsense origin of the Xenomorph that Scott so desperately tried to make canon.
Personally, when I go to see this in August, I'm setting my stopwatch for the countdown to when the actors bring up references to pronouns or trans/gender ideaology, because it's Disney and it's 2024.
I appreciate your comments buddy and I was also quite surprised to see so many other youtubers say Romulus sounds amazing before we even had a full trailer. I'm not too well versed in all the David links but I guess it's very possible that there may be a connection of course. As long as that isn't the focus and maybe more of an afterthought then I don't mind. I just want the film to be consistent with the style and achievements of the first two films as was boasted by the director. We will see my friend.
It will be Disney's fault if the Romulus is a box office flop, not Alvarez. But, everything looks great so far so don't be pessimistic, remember it is a movie, it is not real (there is only so much you can pull off.) With believable characters and horror, Sy Fy scares are to be had, there is very little doubt in my mind so I am very excited.
Think about it like this, with all the Star Wars movies which we have (good, bad, and ugly) the director and crew still pulled off a great surprise called Rogue One: A Star Wars Story. This "Alien Romulus" will, I believe, deliver the same results.
You may be right and I hope you are. I did say in the vid that I appreciate Fede's talents so I hope that came across. Rogue one and Andor were perfect additions to Star Wars so maybe Romulus can make a serious mark here. Hopefully it will fill the void covenant left.
Evil dead was a great remake, I think Fede has got it in the bag!
I must make myself watch that film again, that's a promise! I never appreciated it but maybe I need to see it again.
@@ENTERTAINtheDUDE It was very competently shot and directed - personally I wasn't crazy about the writing.
But everything about it that was in Alvarez' hands, was very solid. I love the opening shot with the levitating lady over the lake.
@@Grogeous_Maximus Then I WILL watch it again, that's a promise 👌. Thanks for the wonderful replies and perspectives on his previous work. I'm actually looking forward to watching his Evil Dead again now as I am ashamed to say that I have only seen it once when it was released.
I think Evil Dead 2013 is the best one out of all of the Horror Remakes released 2007-2014
I do not want a movie where the characters all appear to think they are glamour models, super models, film stars in the making, imagining themselves on the front cover of a magazine - i have seen the remake, but not really watched it, all i remember is the facial expressions ranged from a frown to raised eyebrows with wide eyes, and that was it (until they were zombies, anyway), maybe the odd exception like the woman who tried to get away in her car! School plays tend have more feeling in them.
Looks to me like they are producing a queen when looked at the hive . Has the shape of an aliens dome and teeth
Pretty far out idea but I like it 😉
Look for it to have a double-climax w/ an android wildcard - features that made 1 & 2 classic. "I beat you" - music slows and some denouement - then SURPRISE!
Thanks for the analysis, bro. The cast look like power rangers. I really hope it's dark, gritty, atmospheric and stripped down with decent twists and turns.
🤣 Yeah, if it has all those elements you mentioned which I think there is a decent chance then all my concerns now lie with the actors ability to perform. 🤞
I hope we get more of a Lambert and not a Kate (The sciency protagonist in The Thing 2011 prequal). Laughably wiki had this to say: "Kate Lloyd was written to have similar traits as the character Ellen Ripley from the Alien film series." Watch Kate's opening scene to the 2011 The Thing and turn off the sound, see if Kate gives off any vibes, any clue, any sense of what is happening.
At what point is Kate's opening scene in the film, near the start I would imagine but I'll have to force myself to watch that one again soon I guess ;)
@@ENTERTAINtheDUDE i think its the opening scene, after the credits. I'm tempted to clip just her from that scene, just her screen time with no sound.
Hope it`s good old horror mate like the original Alien
Yeah fingers crossed the next trailer gives off those vibes.
Looks to me like they are producing a queen when looked at the hive .
That 'flamethrower' has no flame... I'm guessing it's more of a nitrogen weapon.
It may be but the visions of Dr Freeze are haunting me haha
Best Aliens thing out is Dark descent.
Yeah I played it. I Loved the slow time mechanic giving you just enough time to react and the X Com vibe of upgrading and going on missions was cool. It could have been a longer game but the story and atmosphere was perfect. Especially the ending with the ancients...
@@ENTERTAINtheDUDE it has replay value.. always scary imagine that whole campaign in first person or VR...
@ENTERTAINtheDUDE fire team elite was fun...but I hate the new age colonial marines they did. Keep it old school. I just wish there were more stations planets derelect ships. Aliens take over areas and you clear them out and leave areas secured. With marines on guard. Bug hunt missions.
@@danielrobinson3079 might even scarier than Isolation in VR. Those big charging tank xenos would fill your view lol
I don’t think it’s a flame thrower but i a freezing weapon to
Subdue the xeno . Realistically speaking a flame thrower on a space station doesn’t makes sense for safety reasons but flames throwers have been used before so I could be wrong .
Yeah I'm very interested in this weapon now, it's got me thinking.
@@ENTERTAINtheDUDEI don’t think flame throwers have a light below them. It’s the blaster from the original film
@@alexhein6386 Interesting observation. I don't think we ever saw it in action but clearly it must have been a slight Star Wars inspired addition to the film at the time haha.
I’ll obviously give the film a try, but like others have mentioned the cast worries me a little. To my 53 year old mind they look like a group of kids, and while I also loved Fede’s Evil Dead and Don’t Breath, his ‘Girl with the’ what was it? With a Rainbow earring (sarcasm) really got the feeling of the series wrong, turning an intelligent thriller franchise into a dumb action flick.. so I have fears
Well it's a legitimate concern and one that I've voiced while trying to remain neutral. Hopefully it will prove us wrong and fingers crossed the trailer will give us some more hope.
I do hope we some acting beyond them standing there and reading their lines as if standing on a stage and looking out towards an audience
I bloody hope so...
Yeah haha Ridley loves it and it's everything he hoped it would be, it stinks 😂
loves what ? I will defend Ridleys Vision at least he cares about the Alien itself ....instead of turning it into an Ant which is what James Cameron did in aliens.
i have my sword and shield i am an ALIEN Covenant defender !!!!
It's not gonna feel like Aliens unless there's Colonial Marines involved to say rescue the crew on Romulus
I get the feeling Marines will not be a part of this film. Imagine if they arrived at the very end to pull the survivors out? Maybe that would be too on the nose and belongs in the games but if they executed that right 👍
Romulus has given me a reason not to kill myself
I hope not 😮
It's looking promising
and its not even out yet ............other than that what a bizzare comment ....the only good thing in your life is movies .......
Thank god fede adds the light in the background. Looks like an 80s horror movie now
@@alexhein6386 i didnt notice that . its the typical lighting for any alien film.
👍
👍
I dont think that weapon is a flamethrower,it doesnt have a pilot light on the underbarrel,also one of the guys making the film Tweeted something about things getting hot..or cold,i reckon that weapon is a cryo gun for freezing a Zenomorph as Weyland wanted a live one.
Sounds very science fiction indeed. Guess there will be a lot of frozen xenos then haha
The main female wearing Reebok bug stompers stresses me out.
Lol, actually they wore Reebok in Alien as well I think. I guess Ridley saw a future with the brand.
@@ENTERTAINtheDUDE that’s ALIENS 1986 James Cameron.
@@danielkinney3286 maybe you're right there, although she still wore sneakers in Alien I am certain of it. Gotta feel comfortable in space right?
@@ENTERTAINtheDUDE damn good point 🍻
I hope this movie is not an embarrassment like Alien Covenant. I watched that film with my parents and it was so awkward to see robot David make out with his other robot look alike. PLZZZZZZZZZ someone make an Alien movie that is suspenseful as the first Alien and Aliens.
haha, the fingering part was in it's own category of cringe I agree. Having a proper Alien film in Romulus is something I think we are all hoping buddy. It's gotta have sensible gore and a mature story.
Alien Covenant was a great movie!!! it has more depth than any other alien movie ....just because your intellect is about as big as a flee. i think geeks! star wars fuckers ...doesn't like intellect or anything beyond themselves ....what you don't realize is Ambiguity is key in the alien. NOT lets get our pulse rifles out and blast them .....that has not respect for the Perfect organism ...its not an ANT ....and no your not having a movie like the first alien ..because we NOT BACKWARDS ppl ..we innovate and move forward ...you sad person
Disney is going to fuck it up. Star wars marvel alien and Predator franchises need to get away from Disney
At least The Predator was far better than it could have been. If they improve even further on the next one then we could be getting closer to the greatness of the original. Romulus could be the final nail in the coffin or hopefully it will exceed my expectations 🤞
James Cameron did a great job on aliens, but every movie after that were such let Downs. The last two movies just didn't make any sense what's so ever. Every thing after the epic aliens was desperately watered down and made no sense. This upcoming movie I'm hoping to see a lot better action and actors who you really route for. I want to see and hear exactly what the aliens movie provided, action and dramatic plot that has the survivers fighting for their lives, I want to see something that I can feel deep in my bones but again I must see that these kids can give a good fight and use their intellect to help combat those alien bastards.
I'm completely with you on that buddy, well said.
I dunno... I really hope this is good, but after Alien 3, Alien Resurrections, both AVP films, Prometheus and Covenant, I'm may just wait for video on this. I do approach this with a certain amount of guarded optimism, sine we're getting Fede Alvarez. If anyone can do an Alien movie right it's him. But I'm starting to feel like the Alien franchise is the abusive boyfriend I keep going back to. I'm feeling much more optimistic about the upcoming television series than this film. Hate me if you will, but that's how I feel.
You speak of sentiments many of us feel. For me, I am more looking forward to the series in terms of getting more out of the franchise but I am hoping the Romulus film will give us a burst of thrills in a decent enough lore driven environment that scares us. If all fails then I'll just have to keep making content on the original films ;)
@@ENTERTAINtheDUDE Hey man, do you ever livestream? I ask because I like your vids and would enjoy interacting with you directly, even if it's just through the chat :)
@@thestreamingmeanie8931 not done it yet but maybe in the future thanks. I know some ppl premiere their vids which is live and allows them to chat in the chat bar with the viewers. I'll save that for when I had a longer vid that is good enough quality 😎
How many more times ffs! Dallas is NOT being morphed into an egg, he is cocooned to be the host for the egg and face hugger Brett is turning into.
I'm most probably in the minority but I still prefer the original cocoon concept, I was actually disappointed when the queen turned up in Aliens.
I'm pretty sure when you look at the clip, they are both being metamorposised in eggs as you can see the egg starting to surround them. Unless there are some added comic content or director info that disputes this?
@@ENTERTAINtheDUDE Brett was killed immediately whereas Dallas was kept alive to be host.
Only Brett is turning into an egg, Dallas is the captive host.
@@user-le4sm4wd1e Sounds about right I guess but you can still see that both of them are enclosed within the same egg shape cocoon. I'll have to go back and watch some of the director commentary if that was ever a thing for deleted scenes.
I just don't care anymore : people running around vast space station fighting a creature we've all seen 500 times already OMG ! Oh it's like Luke in SW but this time it's a girl
Ha ha ha ..................
Stay faithful my friend until we know for sure ;) This could be the film that changes everything...
@@ENTERTAINtheDUDE as they say new movie but the thrill is gone ...
These criticisms about info in photos are super lame. And I love how he criticizes the first photo for lighting, shows a photo from Aliens with the exact same lighting and fawns over it! OMG
And the first two movies used a lot of blue hues for mood and atmosphere, so this movie is probably using blues to blend with the first two films.
Too much criticism for something you haven’t actually seen yet.
The set photo from Aliens was way more gritty and authentic than this image imo. Hope the film will be good but this photo for me just oozed convenience more than anything else, just my opinion 👌
@@ENTERTAINtheDUDE - Set photos taken during production of a movie, will look way different than a still from the actual released version. Production photos from set are usually way brighter and don’t present the director’s actual vision seen onscreen. Aliens was a pretty dark movie, like the original. That photo is super bright and not representative of the final product.
Not fair to compare a movie’s final theatrical look after color timing etc., to photos taken during production.
@@jaymanuel3396 I agree completely but I was assuming that this still from Romulus was from the film and not a set photo, at least you would think that the director would only release the best quality photo he could right? In my mind the set photo from Aliens which as you say should be inferior because of a lack of post production etc looks better than the Romulus still to me. Just my opinion anyways, everyone sees something different of course.
AFTERTHOUGHT: one of the things that made ALIEN horrific was the sexual overtones - they were completely gone from ALIENS. Ronald Shusett in a documentary remembers the shock this carried saying they were all disturbed as "This thing will fuck you!!." We see a sexually suggestive erect barbed tail climbing up between the legs of Lambert and the wild sounds from the Alien sound like humping. Also, in the penultimate scene, Ripley strips down to her underwear. The movie is loaded with penetrations and secretions. The alien itself is a rape, a violation, and I remember how creepy the egg in the marketing was, it was on par with the movie poster from 1974's IT'S ALIVE w/ a claw hanging out of a baby carriage. There were tons of 'rape monster' movies that followed ALIEN like THE ENTITY, HUMANOIDS FROM THE DEEP, EVIL DEAD, THE BEAST WITHIN. In fact, given that female protagonists are virtually a must for this movie (and remember, it set the bar for that originally), I'd say at its core it is a movie of violation and rape. For ALIEN ROMULUS to have that old magic, it better summon up some of that. He handled two creepily sexual scenes in the EVIL DEAD remake (the vines) and DON'T BREATHE (the insemination basement chamber scene), he can handle it here if its written in. I think its crucial. This is a trope that goes way back, just look at the myriad of sci-fi films with a sexy damsel in distress, typically the poster had the monster carrying her off (or Robby the Robot in the case of FORBIDDEN PLANET). It's Disney, and Disney is fuck all liberal feminist Woke nutjob now, but the movie has an R-rating, maybe Fede can 'slip it in' yuk yuk.
I could not agree more haha. I remember looking at a book of Giger's artwork when I was very young and it disturbed me so much like looking at alien porn or something. So much of that was implemented into Alien with everything you said and then more more orifices for good measure ;) The alien itself was incredibly perverse and made more frightening by what you don't see or understand. If Fede is such a big fan then you have to wonder what weird treats he has in store for us.
@@ENTERTAINtheDUDE What could be more 70's sex-horror than a beast drooling KY Jelly? I forgot the other rape scene: Ash trying to regurgitate something (we can guess what) via a rolled up magazine stuffed in Ripley's mouth. Look closely and you'll see in that scene she's surrounded by nudie magazine pinups on the wall. All this sex horror is foreshadowed by Parker making a lewd oral sex joke directed at Lambert, implying miscegenation right before the chestburster. The innards of the facehugger we see during Ash's dissection are raw oysters which are analogous to female genitalia. Again, none of the sequels have these sexual overtones, they're content to just settle on the splatter & gore and I'm afraid Alvarez might as well. Via a leak we know one of the aliens will erupt from Isabela Merced's ass: As per the blog WORLD OF REEL:
"Here’s Merced speaking with THR:
There’s a scene that I’m in, and they all had to turn away. Not one person stayed looking at that iPad because it was so disgusting […] And I was watching it like this … (Merced pretends to hold an iPad with a mesmerized look on her face.) I was so excited.
I’m pretty sure I know what the scene is, so, SPOILERS ahead … Remember the chest bursting scene in 1979 original? Álvarez one ups that one with a rectum bursting scene.
Yes, a baby xenomorph tries to find its way out of a human body and decides the best way to go is via the anal cavity. This is coming from a single source of mine who saw a rough cut of the film, so take it for whatever it’s worth."
PROMETHEUS was loaded with that but it did little for that bad movie but ALIEN is a body horror movie, but that does not overshadow the subtle elegance of its sexual themes as it does in the sequels.
H. R. Giger is a decadent artist, which means he combines the primitive with the sophisticated, the organic with the technological, and a high amount of detail to trap the eye in voyeurism. I'm not going to get academic here but decadence is a disease of the eye, which it seduces and inflames with pornography. Here are two terrific walkthroughs of his museum in Switzerland where you will see the original ALIEN artwork:
ua-cam.com/video/XdUse0e98go/v-deo.html
ua-cam.com/video/KtlWbm5GUcI/v-deo.html
Be fun to make a pilgrimage to that museum after the movie hits.
Alverez is great at copying. Paying homage. Nothing original or shocking. This will bomb.
Well this will either make or break him because Alien is one of the biggest franchises out there which means a lot of riding on this film being good. We shall see.
you 10000% are a hater, and you claiming that you are a fan is false. and calling the fan base "us". There isn't any US. YOU are not a fan. If you were a real fan you wouldn't call spainey Ripley 2.0, you wouldn't have such strong negative things to say. Just because you are making a video on Alien Romulus, that doesn't mean you are part of the hardcore fan base. I love all of the movies, all of the comics, and all of the books. It is all amazing and I for one LOVED the prequels because those were Ridley Scotts vision. The haters are the ones who made Ridley Scott compromise with Alien Covenant. I really wish that people would stop with the constant negativity and just be excited for what is to come.
If you love everything fed to you then great, must be nice but many of us Alien fans if you read all the comments have taken issue with some of the films. I am a big fan but am unwilling to just consume for the sake of consuming. Romulus may be good, I said that in the video and I'm not sure why you think I'm a hater? Most people when asked will tell you that Covenant went off the rails. People are allowed to have their opinions dude
@@ENTERTAINtheDUDE I knew i was going to get this comment from you and you are absolutely right. You can have your own opinion. However, The reason covenant went off of the rails isn't because of Ridley Scott. It was because of haters not seeing the xenomorph as much as they wanted to. If he was able to make the movie he wanted to make, it would have been amazing. People who hate on the stories SO MUCH that they don't even realize that they are the reasons the movie is terrible. Film makers are there to tell stories and they have a vision in their head. Ridley Scott obviously had a vision in his head about the prequels which is why he did them. But once the hate started and kept coming, he decided to cater to the haters instead of making the movie he wanted to make. Instead of hating constantly, i wish people would accept the vision of the people who created the series. (yes, i know who invented Alien, i am purely talking about the movies). If Ridley Scott was actually able to follow through on a decent sequel to Prometheus, it would have been amazing. That didn't happen because of so-called fans. By having a larger youtube video, you have more influence than the normal fan such as myself. The negative connotations of the story will have more effect than some friends just talking amongst themselves. Whether you want to believe it or not, that can influence people who make these movies because they are after one thing, $$$$$$$$$. Case in point, Covenant. I liked it, but the box office draw was the xenomorph and they gave the fans what they wanted to make that money, and that ruined the vision Ridley Scott was going after. I don't give a shit about money. I want a good story.
@@N0rseman ok mate, point taken. I still don't know what vision Ridley did exactly have in his head as I know he doesn't write himself and relies on writers to craft his films. The writers for covenant and to a certain degree Prometheus were below standard for the task in my opinion. So yes, Ridley was not to blame if you bare in mind that the studio were paying for the film and ultimately were in control. As for your other concern, the Ripley 2.0 was clearly a joke but and I have to be honest in my critiques but in the spirit of positivity until I have actually seen the finished product, it might be more productive and less harmful if I remain more neutral in my content. This may be more fair as I understand how much hard work goes into making films from research and clearly there are many optimistic fans out there also. I meant no offense but I also was trying to avoid the shill bracket on UA-cam that seemed to be getting worse these days hehe, take care
It was pretty disappointing to hear you needlessly complain about diversity in the first part of the video. Interesting how you can criticise human decency then proceed to make vapid, contrarian complaints and offer nothing of substance throughout this whole video. Sad.
Look what that attitude did to The Rings of Power, good luck with that...
yet more sterile clinical souless looks, as practically everything done these days. they simply cant.
I'm not alone in thinking something was up with the images. I preferred the second image but it's hard to put your finger on why they didn't quite capture my imagination.
@@ENTERTAINtheDUDE agree, its so sad also because i know people who work reviewing these days have to lower the standards so dramatically to be able to say at least something about these crappy productions. what would have been called simply crap is nowadays pretty good, mediocre is now "great"... And its not limited to scifi but its most noticible in it i think.
@@eddiexx yeah you said it. Horror and sci fi have always not been taken as seriously but now with the dawn of mediocracy already past us, these genres will suffer even more. Obviously Romulus could still surprise me and I hope it does. Fingers crossed buddy 🤞
@@ENTERTAINtheDUDE yes, hope is the last to leave us :) Cheers
I’m willing to eat my words but I don’t have hopes for this no different than the last predator with Indians speaking English and lack of feel of the originals. They need to stop repeating aliens with ripely. Lone women with a flame thrower or some such that’s obviously casted to remind the audience they are watching aliens and to remember Weaver. Probably high time to really shelf the franchise for good and let it go. The prequels ruined the mystery.
If Fede cannot revive the franchise, nor does the Alien series become fruitful. I still believe somebody one day will nail it but although the first two films are timeless in the sense you can enjoy their brilliantness whenever. They are definitely a product of their time in the sense that it seems to be very hard to replicate the genius of them both.
Yeah really good points. I still enjoy the assembly cut of alien 3 and respect it just because of how horrid the production process was. But the rest just don’t really capture the idea. They feel more like what if spin off ideas.
hahah.
why are you making a video on 2 Images ? ..you must have a good life. Your like one those people who reviews trailers ....whats the point?? a trailer is not the film . anyway .
the Alien was screwed when james cameron decided to turn the "perfect organism' into an ANT .....really silly. its been screwed or ages ..atleast Alien covenant has more depth and appreciates the Perfect Organism. im all here for the xenomorph ...the story in all these movies in nonsense .....so , doesnt just go for the alien .
Thanks for asking time out of your day and remember to keep rolling your eyes, maybe you'll find a brain back there somewhere. 👌
@@ENTERTAINtheDUDE I wont find a brain because the brain isnt located there. My brain is located behind my eyes ....i would have to look inside my head ....lol. o well , nice try. where's your alien film ?
In the woke universe, no one can hear you scream sanity.
God I hope there is no woke 🤞
I’ll obviously give the film a try, but like others have mentioned the cast worries me a little. To my 53 year old mind they look like a group of kids, and while I also loved Fede’s Evil Dead and Don’t Breath, his ‘Girl with the’ what was it? With a Rainbow earring (sarcasm) really got the feeling of the series wrong, turning an intelligent thriller franchise into a dumb action flick.. so I have fears
Same fear here like in every " modern " movie these days everyone is a teen , scientist , astronauts , etc etc not a single adult that actually makes it feal realistic to be in the role as " whatsoever role " due to their age . All these kids regarding role have ruined movies the last 10 years .
Hold out and see what the trailer shows us. If the 20 somethings give good enough performances and don't have special abilities etc then hopefully that'll be enough. I want them to just be working class and normal folks that are truly terrified and helpless of the situation they find themselves in. The modern day trap with these films is that everyone becomes and action hero and is void of the emotions you would actually feel if you were really in that situation. Fingers crossed they break the cycle of silliness and give us something good.
@@ENTERTAINtheDUDE yep right with you on this. I thought the Prey film did a decent job at bringing the Predator films back from the dead, hope this does the same for Alien.
