Really? It just fun-to-watch-from-time-to-time that you shouldn't take serious to any degree.

I hate Alien Resurrection with the white-hot blazing fury of a million exploding suns.

Perfectly agreeing with Local Trouble here.

QuoteThe problem is one of tone and seriousness: as he expressed himself in interviews, Jeunet just saw Alien Resurrection as the opportunity to make an hollywoodian blockbuster with guns and explosions. For him it was a kind of psychedelic experience, or like holidays, far away from the nuances d'art et d'essai du cinéma français. Escape from Arty Stuff.

And it shows. The film has an incredibly sarcastic tone and isn't really interested in any of its characters. It's the polar opposite to the frankness, boldness and honesty of the first three movies. Basically it's EDGY AND IRONIC THE MOVIE.

Also yeah, Whedon's screenplay was shit, and the guy can write so he gets no excuse. Both Jeunet and Whedon rushed and botched and I'll never forgive them for that.



If I had a time machine, I'd use it to end Jeunet before it's too late.

Oasis Nadraminator knocks the door and then asks in deep French accent voice "Jaun Peirre Jeunet?". And then, suddenly, he uncovers his gun and BANG! and BANG! and BANG! long after he was already dead.

(Detail: I'm a they, not a he)

Reminds me of the Terminator "cameo" in the French movie La Cité de la Peur.



The heroin opens the door...

- Sarah Connor?
- Well, it's next door.

the only movie with an Alien in it that offends me is AvP-R.

Res was the first Alien film I saw in theaters at the tender age of 6. It would've been fine if not for the Newborn which scared me for years.

Isn't great that there's person who is talking not about how ridiculous Newborn looking but how creature actually scared him? I think it's great.

I closed my eyes after a few minutes in the theater, and didn't open them until I was sure it was gone.

It took me I think 6 more years until I decided to watch it and get over it. That was when I got the Alien Quadrilogy. The Newborn has a very special place in my heart for freaking me out more than anything else as a kid.

Man, I've seen some bad takes re Covenant but some of the confabulations I've seen are seriously, well,  :D, mother of Christ... :D

David will fall. It's inevitable.

Otherwise...I mean, Christ...

I mean, having seen The Predator with autistic members of the family nobody questioned the portrayal of the kid. I work with some autistic people as well and they loved it. So yeah, finding that it's offensive to somebody is actually a surprise to me because everything I saw pointed to the contrary.

Although I am curious about Rory's character post-Fox cut because it seems like he had two different portrayals in the film with him starting a little on the nose to being the more common "good with tech" thing. Both incarnations aren't out of the question, but I'm wondering if the re-shoot had anything to do with that.

Also what the Hell with Alien: Covenant? What did I miss?
