I agree! In don't remember seeing BTS footage before in his other videos but it's a nice addition to the format and his disintegration effect was nice too! He's really stepping up!
This movie will always be very special to me. I was homeless as a teenager and when I finally got into a youth homeless shelter they took us to the dollar theater. We watched this movie. Every time I watch this I feel hopeful and thankful for being off the streets. Always cherish the little things. With that being said, David is a jerk off.
i have a distinct memory of my dad watching this movie in the living room when i was little and my mom saying "isnt she a bit young for this?" and my dad responding "she wont even remember it." he was wrong. i still have nightmares about that alien abortion scene.
I've been going back and watching old Kill Count videos, and it's obvious how much work you've put in to these videos, and how much fun you're having in them. Keep it up James (and crew). Loving the videos as always
If it wasn’t under the Alien franchise name, it would be a lot better received. We gain expectations from the awesome other movies. If it was separate, it would be an awesome premise
I think it already is an awesome premise, because the Alien franchise had already set up some cool origins, I just don't think this was executed super well
The only other way this movie would have been accepted into the franchise is if it wasn't revealed its connection to the Alien connection until the very end of the film.
I was gonna say, this episode brought back how much I wanted to like this movie, how much promise it had. You gotta agree with all the main gripes, but there are some high highs (that transitioned to all lows in the sequel.)
I like the little detail they’ve added in for the name of the Engineer Xenomorph; since the engineers are a sort of representation of God, the Xenomorph that comes from them is called a Deacon, and a Deacon is a role in the Catholic Church (a role bellow priests). Really cool!
The Deacon isn’t an Xenomorph, it’s a similar but different species. The actual Xenomorphs that come from Engineers are named Jockey-Xenomorphs, and they are basically just big Xenomorphs.
@@firemaker1258I mean, technically it's not a Xenomorph, but like... come on, it's a Xenomorph. Shiny black skin, humanoid frame, a crested head, biomechanical features, bursts its way out of a host's body. The graphic novels established it even has acidic blood, for God's sake.
@@wd3185 it could be the missing link to the origins of the xenomorphs if we think about it and look at evolution it could be argued that the Deacon is an ancestor of the xenomorph it's clear that the engineers are the key to solving this
I’ve grown to appreciate Prometheus after initially disliking it in theatres, it’s a little wordy and self-indulgent but is always interesting. And great Kill Count as always 🔪🔪🔪...”Let’s Get to The Killls!”
I love how the movies have been becoming less and less about purely kill counts and starting to simultaneously become reviews and giving behind the scenes facts. Really starts to delve deep into the movies and it’s really interesting.
"We jump to 2093... And just as a refresher, the original Alien took place more than a hundred years after this, in 2122"...Well, that's only 29 years, not more than a hundred.
I was looking for this exact comment. I hurt my brain trying to figure out how he came to that conclusion. I needed this comment to reassure me that I wasnt going crazy. I forgive the error regardless because I love his videos aha
Wanna see how much James has improved? Watch his first Aliens video, and then watch this one. So happy to get to watch how far he's come. Good going, James!
One thing I love about James is all the behind the scene information that he gives and that he gives credit when its due to all the workers involved behind the scenes. Keep up the good work James.
Timothy Rodowicz that was obviously what I was trying to do with this comment convince people I was James a janisse you intellectual genius you really see the bigger picture
In a world full of CO2, they would need to have devices to work in those types of atmospheres since most wiring would need Oxygen to work, so self sustaining O2 machines would most likely need to be implemented into them for those off world expeditions
I'm on a Dead Meat marathon and I have to say, as a wrestling fan, I love all the references you drop every now and then, just makes these videos even better for me !
I actually really enjoyed this film.. I viewed it as movie that had no correlation to the alien movies. By itself, it’s an amazing sci-fi horror movie. The use of practical effects and the beautiful cinematography will always make this movie special. Glad Scott wanted to do something new
The original Alien series was supposed to be like this, about Space jockeys and Engineers but people higher up shut it down and made the Xenomorphs the center of the story.
These movies are just like Jarrasic Park and all it’s sequels. They’re just the same exact story/scenario but with different characters. It’s fucking retarded man. I love kill counts and cinema sins/wins so I can just watch a summarized version of movies that I think could be interesting if they weren’t carbon copies of each other. I guess it’s the same with most movies actually; Terminator series, All Heist movies, I know what you did last summer, conjuring, Jason movies, Friday the 13th, Scream. I don’t understand why every movie has to stick to the story circle man it makes me lose interest in almost every single movie. Absolutely disappointing
no, absolutely disagree. The beauty of the original Alien is that we had the unknown of the space jockey. And with Prometheus the freedom of the viewer's fantasy was taken away and we were given a complete nonsense story of creators. The space jockey could have been so much more.
Prometheus and Covenant completely ruined the mystery and intrigue of the original film and series. I never wanted to know what the space jockey was or where it came from. Not to mention the completely stupid plot twist that the Space Jockeys/Engineers created humans for no reason whatsoever. And adding to that, why the hell couldn't Scott just leave the Xenomorphs be actual aliens and not David's creations? The factor that made the original film so good is the fact that we had no idea where the Xenomorph evolved and it was just the perfect predatory organism. There was no need for them to be practically artificial creations. He also created a massive plothole in the timeline. Prometheus is set 30 years before Alien, and Covenant is set 20 years before Alien. According to Covenant, Xenomorphs never came into existence until 2104, and that wasnt even a Xenomorph, it was a Protomorph. So somehow, in the 18 years between Covenant and Alien, an Engineer got his hands on thousands of non existent Xenomorph eggs, crashed his ship on LV-426, and according to Alien, was there long enough to be fossilized (hundreds of thousands of years at the very least). The sheer amount of stupidity that the writers required to actually produce these movies still baffles me
@@kingayy9267 which I don't get, he uses behind the scenes and commentaries for videos all the time and ridley straight up says 2 million "engineers" died when David unleashes the goo in covenant so it wouldn't be hard to count at all
@@mullaoslo what about when he does the pie chart? how would he do a visual representation, one engineer and the saying 2 million more might work but i doubt it
I can get that being the case at first, but in the amount of time they were running in that scene, they probably should’ve had enough time to think of moving out of the way
1:25 When James said "you see yourself yelling at the characters for the stupid decisions they make" and put the bit where instead of running out of the way of the ship, they run in a straight line... I felt it in my heart
In interviews, Ridley Scott often refers to the Xenomorphs as dragons. This might because the term Xenomorph is not used until Aliens, maybe, or because that is how Scott views the creatures. I love Prometheus and Covenant, warts and all, and find the characters to be relatable and their motives clear. There are some deleted scenes from Prometheus that better explain Fifield and Millburn's motivations, but essentially those two characters had no idea they were on a trip to find aliens, like many of the characters, and that Millburn is trying to win over Fifield's respect. Also for example, Meredith is motivated by her desire to be seen as an equal in her father's eyes. She is extremely competitive with David, who is seen by Peter as his heir.
Slight error with the description, its the same description of The First Purge, please like so James can see! Edit: it's fixed now, you don't have to like anymore
After the scene where Shaw gets the emergency c-section *still perfectly awake and having her abdomen sliced open* i was cringing for the rest of the movie at Shaws every action, thinking of how much pain she must be in. Damn, that was a hard scene to watch. I could *feel* that in my bones
“The alien movies are phallic” You have no idea. H.R. Giger... creator of the xenomorph, has a shit load of super sexual extraterrestrial artwork. Hell, the original movie’s egg ship has coochie shaped doorways.
This movie is kind of incredible in that nearly a decade later I can still find new things that don’t make sense about it. I didn’t even notice how david can magically operate every piece of alien tech...
@@firemaker1258 yeah it was because of other circumstances hat it transformed like that. The comic is pretty cool but I wish they had done something else with the Deacon.
What i found challenging in Prometheus was to make consistent and coherent sense of it. It is stimulating to think about it all might work, and discuss interpretations with mates.
I saw this movie a few months after I had a hysterectomy. Watching Shaw run around and get hit in the gut after her c-section just sort of left me curled up in a horrified little ball.
@@B1g_B0sssss Surgical removal of the uterus. I had a six-pound tumor (thankfully benign), and had an incision pretty much identical to Shaw's, right down to the staples. I was in the hospital for the next three days, doped on morphine the first day, and not allowed to even get out of bed until the day I went home. It took a full six weeks to recover. A hit to the gut like she took would have been completely incapacitating.
The comics and films are two completely different universes that share somewhat similar things. If that was the case then Batman, Superman, The Terminator, Judge Dredd and fucking Archie would all be interconnected in the same universe as Alien vs Predator lol
Honestly I don't dislike this concept Same for covenant Xenomorphs are great but its nice to try to expand out from the normal beasties Plus the Engineers are badass, if not also very moody and just really don't want to be bothered by creepy androids
@@isaaclindsey4185 they aren't knockoffs? I dont understand this argument. the black goo is the common denominator. the original xenomorph had to come from somewhere.. like what in this movie exactly is a knockoff xenomorph? the deacon? due to the mechanism of the black goo and the DNA of the host there are so many different combinations and outcomes of what can be born, not just xenomorphs
Plus the sexual horror is to imply the shared history behind the goo originating the Xenomorphs That said I do think these films would have been so much stronger as their own thing rather then just a prequel to Alien that doesn’t seem very interested in tying in
Badass engineers from Prometheus creating Xenos by their attempt on erasing human creation: cool as fuck! Perturbed android with god complex using an awesome protagonists eggs as an experiment to create xeno: trash as fuck! This is why I will always love Prometheus for its boldness, and hate Covenant for its cowardliness...
The biologist's death still cracks me up, because my wife is a wildlife ecologist (who got her Ph.D before she turned 28 and is a tenured biology professor at a highly reputed college as well as a highly skilled carpenter, seamstress, and programmer) and when I showed her that scene she was like "oh yeah, that's totally how I would die." 18 INT, 3 WIS. I guess that's how she ended up with me? ;)
6:54 "..these helmet-less yahoos walk around some more before david finds some ectoplasmic goop on the wall and then somehow beep boops the right combo of bip bops..." fking brilliant. loool

Actually, the reason why running in a straight line from a rolling object is because it’s human instinct to run in a straight line away from danger
I can get that being the case at first, but in the amount of time they were running in that scene, they probably should’ve had enough time to think of moving out of the way
Graduated from Prometheus school of running a way of things

For every movie I go I need James to say “title card” when the title card pops up
Mines either “title card” or, if they say the name of the film, “Roll Credits”. 😊

1:25 When James said "you see yourself yelling at the characters for the stupid decisions they make" and put the bit where instead of running out of the way of the ship, they run in a straight line... I felt it in my heart
The kill counts are getting longer and I am one hundred percent okay with that!

@@jesuschrist2346 didn't want to come across as weirdly over excited messiah... 😁🙏
Depends on how many people get killed
The "TRAVELIN' TIME!" reference was both weirdly random and completely appreciated, James. Great episode as always, dude!
Wow, I really liked that "Infinity Wars" ending James did.
_Chelsea, I don't feel so good..._
In interviews, Ridley Scott often refers to the Xenomorphs as dragons. This might because the term Xenomorph is not used until Aliens, maybe, or because that is how Scott views the creatures. I love Prometheus and Covenant, warts and all, and find the characters to be relatable and their motives clear. There are some deleted scenes from Prometheus that better explain Fifield and Millburn's motivations, but essentially those two characters had no idea they were on a trip to find aliens, like many of the characters, and that Millburn is trying to win over Fifield's respect. Also for example, Meredith is motivated by her desire to be seen as an equal in her father's eyes. She is extremely competitive with David, who is seen by Peter as his heir.
Slight error with the description, its the same description of The First Purge, please like so James can see!

I saw Prometheus in theaters in 3D. It was awesome to see it in that format.
I bet
Yes! My favorite 3D experience after Gravity.
That actually sounds amazing!!
Most movies are filmed in 2D...and then changed to 3D. This movie was filmed in 3D.
After the scene where Shaw gets the emergency c-section *still perfectly awake and having her abdomen sliced open* i was cringing for the rest of the movie at Shaws every action, thinking of how much pain she must be in. Damn, that was a hard scene to watch. I could *feel* that in my bones
So a giant face hugger can kill/defeat jiren but goku can't? *Smh*

“The alien movies are phallic”
You have no idea. H.R. Giger... creator of the xenomorph, has a shit load of super sexual extraterrestrial artwork.
Hell, the original movie’s egg ship has coochie shaped doorways.
And rape theme also..,
Giger was not of the most sane mind it seems
Is it on rule 34 or no
I’m just asking bruh
That trilobite tentacle is over sized. It wouldn’t work on a human. But that site probably found a way.

This movie is kind of incredible in that nearly a decade later I can still find new things that don’t make sense about it. I didn’t even notice how david can magically operate every piece of alien tech...
I mean ai can talk to whales lol it’s not really hard to believe a sophisticated robot can figure out how to use tools 🙏
Honestly the Deacon is pretty epic and I’d love to see what one would look like full grown.
It turned into a mountain
@@Lordship1021 but that was after it ate the black goo if it didn’t it wouldn’t have
Mountain. It just turns into a mountain. I think the Alien Wiki (Xenopedia) has a design for a fully grown Deacon somewhere.
@@firemaker1258 yeah it was because of other circumstances hat it transformed like that. The comic is pretty cool but I wish they had done something else with the Deacon.

"Boop boops the right combination of bip baps" really got me.
Hell I would love me some Engineer vs. Predator fightscenes
GoreShift I think it’s canon in comics but I’m not sure
From what I remember, the engineers fuck predators up, and even created them too. It’s been a while, so I could be wrong lol
@@eddy5750 makes sense. In one of the comics a predator tries hunting an engineer but gets bent over and fucked until a human helps him.
Iguana Boi lol I could have probably worded that better, but thanks lol.
@@eddy5750 obviously I'm not being literal. There's a comic where a predator tries hunting a bear and fails.
What i found challenging in Prometheus was to make consistent and coherent sense of it. It is stimulating to think about it all might work, and discuss interpretations with mates.
One thing humans should learn from these movies in the future if we ever get to travel the universe no Android should be used,they always screw us.
Except Data, he's a wholesome Android
True. 😆 lolz
Blame the greedy corporation that programs them to do crazy experiments with no protocols to limit them lol.
What about Bishop from Aliens? He was cool in the end

I saw this movie a few months after I had a hysterectomy. Watching Shaw run around and get hit in the gut after her c-section just sort of left me curled up in a horrified little ball.
Wut is a hysterectomy?
@@B1g_B0sssss Surgical removal of the uterus. I had a six-pound tumor (thankfully benign), and had an incision pretty much identical to Shaw's, right down to the staples. I was in the hospital for the next three days, doped on morphine the first day, and not allowed to even get out of bed until the day I went home. It took a full six weeks to recover. A hit to the gut like she took would have been completely incapacitating.
Alien vs Predator films are more "What if" movies, and are not canon to the main Alien universe
Hi dad
They are now, thanks to the comics
mctown972 Shut up. In my head Canon it is canon.
They actually are due to the comics
The comics and films are two completely different universes that share somewhat similar things. If that was the case then Batman, Superman, The Terminator, Judge Dredd and fucking Archie would all be interconnected in the same universe as Alien vs Predator lol
"Its Cabal looking visage..."
Are you talking about Destiny's Cabal race or Mortal Kombat's Kabal? Either way good reference (:
I was thinking cabal from the command and conquer series.
destiny pog
Considering the other Mortal Kombat references in James’ videos I assume Kabal
Yo that engineer dying looks like the sn...
James: The company that did the effect also did the effect for the snap in Infinity War
The special effects for that year are just amazing i can't believe they made them so good
16:37 "Wait WMD is an oil...why does this all sound familiar?" Is further evidence that James SMOKES WEED.
WMDS *AND* oil
Why I love this series? probably for this, all kills and chill music in the background.
There's nothing more satisfying than timing "The movie begins with" perfectly in sync with James
This was a rare movie that literally all my friends and I really enjoyed. Final girl was soo badass
Which is why I find the sequel to this movie so bothersome lol
The reason why the aliens feel like “b grade xenomorphs” is because the movie is a prequel for how the xenomorphs were created
Honestly I don't dislike this concept
Same for covenant
Xenomorphs are great but its nice to try to expand out from the normal beasties
Plus the Engineers are badass, if not also very moody and just really don't want to be bothered by creepy androids
Well yeah but still Ridley coulda shaken it up a bit and made them less of a knock off of xenomorphs
@@isaaclindsey4185 they aren't knockoffs? I dont understand this argument. the black goo is the common denominator. the original xenomorph had to come from somewhere.. like what in this movie exactly is a knockoff xenomorph? the deacon? due to the mechanism of the black goo and the DNA of the host there are so many different combinations and outcomes of what can be born, not just xenomorphs
Plus the sexual horror is to imply the shared history behind the goo originating the Xenomorphs
That said I do think these films would have been so much stronger as their own thing rather then just a prequel to Alien that doesn’t seem very interested in tying in
Badass engineers from Prometheus creating Xenos by their attempt on erasing human creation: cool as fuck!
Perturbed android with god complex using an awesome protagonists eggs as an experiment to create xeno: trash as fuck!
This is why I will always love Prometheus for its boldness, and hate Covenant for its cowardliness...
13:39 love the use of the word tweener and heel. Very nice man
Do you ever just run sideways,

It's always nice to know where the madness started
22:37 Mr stark I don't feel so xenomorph
James doesn’t feel so good
The dust went the wrong way
The biologist's death still cracks me up, because my wife is a wildlife ecologist (who got her Ph.D before she turned 28 and is a tenured biology professor at a highly reputed college as well as a highly skilled carpenter, seamstress, and programmer) and when I showed her that scene she was like "oh yeah, that's totally how I would die." 18 INT, 3 WIS. I guess that's how she ended up with me? ;)
Dead Meat really post 9:00 in the night in our area so kinda challenging to watch this alone which sometimes gives me nightmares that I really love.
