It blows my mind when people defend Prometheus and Covenant. ESPECIALLY when they say either one is their fave of the franchise. WTF
Just as Starbucks coffee is coffee for people who don't like coffee, Prometheus and Covenant are Alien movies for people who don't like Alien movies.
The roast on your burn is as strong as what Starbucks does to their beans.
I'm convinced they're trying to crack fusion and the coffee beans are just the results of their failures..
I'll be honest, I kinda like Prometheus. I think it has some absolutely gorgeous scenes, although the plot is pretty bad. Covenant is in the same vein, with less beautiful scenes and a worse plot
The thing that killed Prometheus was entirely the script. Set design? Great. CGI? Great. Acting? Great.
But when everyone character acts exactly opposite of what their chosen profession was, I can only come to the conclusion that Ridley Scott has a deep disrespect for Scientists.
The Geologist/Cave Mapper got lost. The Archeologist contaminated the site. The Biologist didn't recognize a treat response. The Anthropologist couldn't separate her work from her religious beliefs. I can see the subtext that Scott was going for and I disagree with it.
I hated Prometheus the first time I watched it. I now love it after 5 watches
I've never seen it and based on these comments I already hate it
