The thing is it shouldn’t exist though. It tries to explain the history of the alien which we never needed. What made the first movie so scary is that you don’t know anything. The alien is truly alien. Like an unstoppable force of nature. But Prometheus tries to explain everything away.

Prometheus is closer to Blade Runner with it's sci-fi existentialist pondering and Covenant is closer to Alien Resurrection with it's forgettable characters and bland high body count slasher movie formula plot.

@jarg8 2 ай бұрын

Because it's bad. I've seen the different cuts. Used to think it was a great movie. Seen it enough to realize it isn't. Its poorly written, the Xenomorph suit is only shown from the waste up due to the fact that they didn't have a finished suit (which is soooo distracting due to how the camera has to compose around it), the Xenomorph early CGI is bad and overused, the characters are never developed even remotely, it completely kills the momentum from aliens by just writing out two major characters, the ending makes no sense, and it wastes its unique settling by basically doing nothing with it. What it has in atmosphere and sets cannot make up for how poorly done it all is. It's the product of a miserable production and it shows. You'll find that's most peoples' experience as well so hopefully that clears it up

@kholui 2 ай бұрын

I love the concept of the Alien, and the original movie remains a firm favourite of mine. Unfortunately you can only reuse the format a limited number of times before it becomes tired. Especially if it has another Ripley clone front and center. This trailer looks sick, but nevertheless seems a retread of what we've seen before many times. My wish is that there is something original with the story and/or characters, but I don't see it in this particular teaser.

@etiennebrownlee4071 2 ай бұрын

Does this trailer tease anything shockingly original, thought-provoking or new to the franchise? No. Does this trailer tease an absolutely horrifying and grotesque, edge-of-your-seat, nail-biting, chill-inducing, violent horror thrill ride? Oh yes. Nothing like seeing a genuinely scary slasher in the theatres. Hope it's good!

@SlashersquadJack 2 ай бұрын

This doesn't feel like nostalgia to me mostly because the alien franchise has looked very different over the years this trailer shows me that they're bringing alien back to where it was where it started so less nostalgia more return to form we haven't seen a horror film out of that franchise probably since the original alien 3 kind of had a little bit but not to the degree of the original had and that is where this creature works best it is one of if not the best monster ever put to film it's not tugging a mine nostalgia seeing this it showing me that this dude knows what alien is and how to use it.

@kaaredyrness2120 2 ай бұрын

Honestly yeah. Aliens is so great because it really did something different then the first. Then 3 and even 4, for all their problems tried to do something different (to debatable success). And then in the one way I feel they should replicate the original, setting everypersons up as your characters, they go the modern day route of generic hot twenty somethings.
