      Antiwhiteism can be really subtle. Take the movie Se7en for example. Somerset (Morgan Freeman) was calm, cool, collected and intelligent. He frequented the library so much that the overnight security guards knew him. Mills (Brad Pitt) was low impulse and watched football on television instead of reading. Mills needed cliff notes to understand. The pathologist was black. Mills required an explanation from the pathologist, while Somerset immediately understood. The DA was black. The janitor who scraped Somerset's name of the door was white and slow. The one of the black library security guards made a joke that made the white library janitor laugh out loud. Black people are witty, intelligent and slow to anger. White people are of lower intellect and have low impulse control. Tell-a-vision has a major impact on how some people see the world. Young black kids watching would see themselves as superior due to their overrepresentation and portrayal in Hollywood. Once you see it, the chances of not seeing the social engineering, propaganda and symbolism are impossible to unsee.

    I didn't like it either. It didn't explain the origin of xenomorphs nor anything interesting. Also it didn't make sense they were able to steal a ship and get out of the planet despite they were supposed to stay there according to the company. The writers could have turned that into a cool plan, like escaping from a prison, but they were lazy or something. Bad writting, no original ideas. The black guy acting as the robot was good, though.

    All those facehuggers didn't come from eggs, since there was no queen. They found the corpse of the alien Ripley blasted out of her shuttle, Ash 2.0 extracted the black goo from Prometheus out of it, and 3d printed all those facehuggers. Of course some got out and impregnated the former human crew, that's why there are some adult Xenos are around.

That being said, what could anyone expect from the NINTH "Alien" movie? Look at Police Academy. They had less movies. Planet of the Apes. They had less movies. The two first movies were great.

    Alien is indeed perfect, but Romulus is a solid and enjoyable expansion of the world Scott and Cameron created. Nothing wrong with a low-stakes little, modest budget heist movie in space. It had tons of practical effects, wasn't woke and had a great premise (not least adding more depth to WY). Given the usual slop churned out by Hollywood, Romulus was a fun romp.

      Romulus has a retarded android and a totally unconvincing deepfaked Ian Holm as a MAIN CHARACTER. Plus a ship crew of petites (one with a shaved head, natch) who yell a lot and pretend to be BIG TUFF SPACE GRRLZ.

      @lordgoogoo69 true it wasn't all bad and I'm all for enjoying whatever you can out of a movie. There are plenty of movies that are hit and miss that I have had a good time with. This movie mostly just made me feel a sadness for modern entertainment with the lack of characters, constant harking back to previous movies, key jangling as the reviewers call it now and just the entire lack of originality. Why does it seem most movies are 20 something nobodies now who are very much forgettable. Alien Resurrection had monkey man Ron Pearlman, fun characters with memorable scenes. In this they were just bland fodder.
      From what I understand it seems to have impressed younger audiences and made a good bit of money. It wasn't Prey levels of lame at all but standards are low.

    I'm watching the movie right now but there’s an intriguing scene where the ship's gravity switches on and off automatically at short intervals. During these moments, objects float and then fall again, creating an atmosphere of instability and tension. However, when they are looking for fuel to the pods, when they enter a room there's a liquid container, with its liquid content miraculously remaining in place. In reality, with a constant cycle of gravity and microgravity, any loose liquid would quickly disperse, floating during the zero-gravity periods and spreading throughout the ship.
    How??
    How did they let these details slip, which end up undermining the entire atmosphere of the film?
