To be sure, the captain had already surmised that those vessels of black ooze were some kind of "weapon of mass destruction" - - and promised Shaw it would never get back to Earth

Janek already had a pretty good idea of what the pale dudes were doing in there and besides, all of the crew (that was still alive) saw how "friendly" those things were to humans.

Jake, the "hands up" is taken from when people first started riding the rolly coasters in the 60's when they were going down the hill.

​​@@michaelorosz272the line is "hands off". It's symbolic of the crew surrendering to their fate, not as a consequence of external, divine forces, but their own decisions and circumstances. They could avoid the collision by maneuvering. They take their hands off the controls to show they are committed to their course of action, and won't avoid the collision, and their subsequent deaths, because it is a necessary consequence of their choices.

It's a movie.

Utterly stupid sacrifice. Captain and crew are idiots. Dumbest Captain ever. No Captain of a ship would be that stupid 😅. Sacrifice an Interstellar ship on the advice of an hysterical women? Not tactically sound or reasonable given the circumstances. If a corporation can fund a ship that can travel to the stars. Imagine what governments can do? What hope would one ship have against a military from all the space faring countries from earth? The ship would have been met with an armada light years from earth. A type 2 civilization armada. No hope of it winning. Say it defeats that armada. A more advance Armada will meet it the next time. For the scientist and military strategist will have accessed it strength and weaknesses. And will come with a more advance ships. This pattern will just repeat until it is defeated. Now the defenders are just as strong as you. Now earth will be on the attack. Remember a type 2 civilization like in this film is damn near impossible to defeat.

Yeah as cool as this is to witness, I didn't find it very believable. If they were soldiers following orders, maybe, but 3 essentially civilians being told by a screaming woman that they need to sacrifice their lives and ship right now and all coming to an agreement over that purpose in less than a minute? People only do that if they believe someone without question. What reason do they have to believe Shaw is right, even if she believes she is?

One of them hesitated for a moment. It's not easy at all to accept that you're gonna crash and burn willingly to your death.

That Asian guy is now Wong, fighting alongside Dr. Strange.

@@johnangelocabauatan6216 , Benedict Wong, he has been in quite a few shows & movies.

That Asian guy is Genghis Khan who conquered HALF the WORLD in Marco Polo.

He had other lines... like before the mission briefing the pilots are speculating about what the job is. It's important because it tells us what kind of crew we're dealing with, the type who sign up for a multi year mission without knowing what the job actually is, only what it pays. This explains their lack of caution and poor attitude to doing things properly.

He had another line where he was making that bet with his co-pilot friend

Yep thats a swing and a miss dude.

Farmers insurance: “We know a thing or two, because we've seen a thing or two.” Farmers insurance guy: “No the fuck we haven’t, not this shit!”

And then he allowed bad reboot to make the second one, undoing all he accomplished in the first.

I like the pilots last line: Pilot 1: "If you think this means the Bets off? You're wrong!" Pilot 2: "Why don't you pay me back on the other side"

In real life they put in auto pilot and hope for the best no heroes is in our world these days

@@R0gueM Amen

That was stupid. Why sacrifice the ship? Signal or follow. That 1 ship ever getting near earth is highly unlikely. Even if they didn't signal ahead that ship will be met with an Armada several times. If a corporation can send a ship to another star system. IMAGINE what governments can do? It's like Apple vs all the world in ship deployment.

Also the closer the ship got to Earth the more the web would thicken. Meaning the more force it would encounter. Since earth and all governments would have years to prepare.

A good death is it’s own reward

missmommy185 why did dr Shaw wanted them to crash the ship? Was the engineer on his way to earth to use the bio weapon that David later use on the covenant?

@@jojogirma61 Yes. That was it's original mission. To destroy life on Earth.

Except for the fact that the engineers ship wasn’t even scratched after the collision. Maybe they just got lucky and the engine cut off switch was in the spot they hit.

Exactly I love Prometheus more than covenant

I got happy when she started to taking her clothes off.

"Let me do the fingering"

Both of them had so many flaws. But one movie had one scene that wins it for me and that is the Covenant. I'm of course talking about the medbay scene. That scene was so freaking awesome than what we got in Prometheus and Covenant after the medbay.

The thing is people wanted "Aliens" from Prometheus. So with Covenant they gave them another shitty aliens movie. But at that point we all wanted the mystery of the Engineers. Instead of another shitty horror movie with David being a twat. : I

Its actually carrying life, just not the one you want.

@@tovsteh yeah i think covenant showed that it’s just death that can be made into life

Zero Cool Kid You like the way who decided his fate? Capt Janek?

THIS! selfless sacrifice for the entire human race, planet etc is so rarely done right..

Hadder Yuri Fox should at least bring back Shaw as a clone, like Ripley. I agree - Shaw rocked! Even after her husband was killed, and she survived carrying one of those hybrids inside her, she still got it together, and executed a plan to take that death to the Engineers’ home world (even if pieces of David had plotted this in his twisted Synthetic brain...... Shaw Rocked!!!!!!!

The fact that they just killed her off pissed me off so much! She was a cool character.

Ripley always will be the top, a survivor and a hero, in alien 3 she throws to the foundry to prevent the birth of the alien queen and the company weyland-yutani took advantage of that although she knew clearly that doing it meant sacrificing her life but she knew that she would save humanity and all life on the planet earth... :D

@@andressorribes5652I agree, actually, but poor Shaw set the standard decades before Ripley was even born and paid a price worse than we can imagine to do the right thing. Ripley died and was Cloned, yes, which brought the Xenomorphs back with her, 200 years later, but while her memory was intact that wasn't the original Ripley, not really. Both of them died horribly to save the entire human race. Both of them deserved so much better...

And Chris Evans is excellent in this film. His performance is on par with his work in the film Snowpiercer.

The visuals and world building are something else, that's for sure.

@W two totally different movies and cannot be compared. The only similarities is the Sci-Fi genre but that’s where the similarities end.

Like the scene running away from the crashing ship. The cave drawings of Pleiades, the constellation symbol of destruction and rebirth. The whole show is about creation, destruction, and rebirth. The big cycle.

@@philippebien5429 It is not about Christ or God. A person can be really good without religion.

@@majestic7768 Just like a child grown into a foster home can end up being a good contributing person to society. BUT It's still better when one knows where they come from in every kind aspect starting with their parents and each separate bloodline etc etc. That's when your true character can grow. God already gave us the law of the land that every single human good all the way down to sinister type folks like human traffickers, that "free will" will be constructed in every kind of society. Hence why every religion requires some form of praying and asking for forgiveness to cleanse ourselves. Your way of life is thinking is so momentarily and not for the long term. God won't put a gun to you to force you to join him in paradise. You're just a modern narcissist who thinks we go for a long sleep or share the same afterlife with all the pedophiles and tyrants of the world. Your biggest philosopher's in this world who are anti Christian even claim later on that logical thinking should lead to a paradise and a place to torment. How do you get there?? Leave your ego at the door. Confess when you're alone on what you did is when life will truly come into a full circle. But again you probably think we don't have souls and we go for a nice long nap or jump into different realms post death.. Uh uhhh there's rules to this world and no amount of yoga, DMT and being nice while acting like you never have anything to confess will get you to the right side of the afterlife.

To Noomi fans, watch 'The Drop' with Tom Hardy, James Gandolfini (his last performance).

F the main stream I'll watch her anytime in anything...Noomi.💎

yes i turn the surround sound and bass box up during that scene.

Brilliant post this is exactly it. Don't forget Janek already knew the Engineers were hostile. Shaw just confirmed it.

What I found interesting was when the Engineer entered the life-pod, probably unaware Shaw survived. Whether as to gather information or more likely to see what induced the Humans to sacrifice themselves in what was ultimately in the eyes of the Engineer a futile attempt at stopping him. One of those “maybe Humans deserve another chance” moments. At least until Shaw attacked him 😂

​@@Waroftheworldszthere was so much cut from this which would have made them more interesting. There was a scene where she's hiding in the private quarters and David is filling her head with lies about the Engineer but at first he stops and looks at the screens playing music and he seems moved. Perhaps reconsidering his decision..out of them all he seemed taken with Shaw so wants to talk with her but because of David's lies she backs away holding an axe. He tries to console Shaw and explain but she doesn't understand. In desperation she presses the door and the rest follows as in the cut.

That is why it takes discipline and a very special training to become a merchant or navy captain

@@TheWPhilosopher David doesn't fill Shaw's head with lies - he simply tells her that the engineer is coming for her. And the engineer doesn't try to console her.

That's what BROS do

The most iconic person is by far and a long margin, Ripley. With all due respect to the great actors in the new movies (and the old), Ripley is on a whole other level when talking about the Alien franchise

They killed Shaw due to Naomi's declining popularity

@@tobiascabrejas5154 Still, it's a dick move to strip her even out of the scenes explaining what happened to her character from the theatrical release of the follow up film.

Only if you think Shaw was correct in her assumptions.

There's nothing else they could really do they either let the engineer go away and destroy the earth or they use the ship as a weapons and guide it to crash into the engineer

Check out the cut content from Prometheus that never made it to theatre. As well as the stuff cut from the scripts. This film had the potential to being legendary and I think that it deserves a re-make with all of the cut content added back in.

they could always sell it to Disney - look at what they did for the Star Wars films

@@michaelmartin8337 star wars second trilogy was fk awful, fuck disney

I'd bet money that there was studio interference. I personally don't hate Covenant, but it does feel like there were people pressuring Scott into hurrying up and getting the Xenomorphs back into the story.

On the contrary it was overhyped by the marketing department. Don't forget all of those online videos and commercials showing us how Weyland got the crew in the ship, not to mention how the company sold us the David model line. Fast foward to teh time of release and everyone knew that the movie was really bad. Great visuals and music but the plot itself and most of the characters were a waste of screen time. And for the record I DO LIKE the film, but it is by no means an underrated movie nor a good alien prequel.

Fury161 oh ok didn’t know that. Anyways in my opinion I found it very interesting movie. It should’ve expanded until revealing the real origin of the Aliens. But Covenant was such a disappointment. It felt very rushed. The only reason I felt like it was underrated is because from what I know, Ridley had to change the sequel based on people not liking Prometheus.

@@officialrvelasco I understand your point. But most people didn't liked prometheus because instead of being a direct prequel to Alien, it was a spin-off-ish thing. Not to mention that the 'space truckers' of the Nostromo were more competent and professional than the scientists of the Prometheus. What Ridley did in Covenant was the final nail in the coffin. Ugly, ugly film.

@@PointReflex It's not surprising that the crew of the _Nostromo_ were more competent though. They were only interested in getting home. There was nobody like Shaw with a religious belief that what was in there was their creator that had _invited_ them to come, and nobody like Weyland, desperate to get answers before he kicked the bucket. Shaw is similar to Ripley as far as courage and toughness goes, but Ripley was cautious and rational. Ripley would have looked at those cave paintings, realised they were painted by tribal humans witnessing an invitation of their own time, not an invitation left by Engineers for future humans. She would have been curious as to whether the trips were taking tribal humans away and for what purpose. She would not have considered it a good idea to just land, and roll right in as if there was a pleasant welcome for the Prodigal Son. Also, the crew of the _Nostromo_ were hired in a normal fashion, and had been with the company a long time, and knew how to work together. The crew of the _Prometheus_ was a "Ship of Fools". They signed up for a mission knowing nothing but the pay, and got their first briefing 28 months after they'd launched. Shaw is a fanatic who is 100% certain of her conclusions, based on cherry picked evidence, because of what she 'chooses to believe' . Holloway is a moron, Weyland is dying, desperate and ruthless. David and Ford are working Weylands agenda while Shaw doesn't keep control of the mission. Ripley took command when Dallas died, and she made good decisions, and kept everyone focussed on one agenda. They only had one crew member working to a different agenda of course, Ash. Covenant was even more stupid, I agree.

@Joseph Barbie I guess

Covenant was disappointing. You could see how it was going to end about an hour before it did

The Feeling Is Mutual that’s false. She was on broad coming back. Fox wanted to go in a different direction

@The Feeling Is Mutual Not sure where you got that. She wanted to be in the film, but was written out by Ridley Scott. In the original draft, she was to have a minor supporting role...that she was hiding in the catacombs of the alien city. She was to come out at the end to help the Covenant crew escape. Scott has said that he wanted to instead focus on David and cater to the fans demands for more xenomorphs. So he wrote Noomi out. After production and during re-shoots, he wrote the new part for Noomi...the online only prologue for the movie. She said she was happy to come in for the scenes and would have actually had a hard time playing a larger role, since she was pretty beaten up from filming Unlocked.
