Yeah, this is an Alien movie, and perhaps not just loosely connected. It seems it is strongly connected. Michael Fassbender, from the very beginning of the interview, he called it an Alien movie, he talked about it like an Alien movie. It was not until the interviewer asked that he made a distinction, and that distinction did not appear wide. I can accept 1 actor misinterpreting a question, but 2? No. And not after answering the question the way Michael Fassbender did. I guess we all got our prequel!!!
