What do you want to see in Romulus?

[Slutty Badger]

In-universe conjecture in the movies?

No, the RPG.

It's canon for the moment!

[E. Shaw]

If Romulus has a Queen, I will shit bricks of solid unobtanium.

Same here!

[xShadowFoxX]

I don't know why.. but now I want to see an army of Aliens being led by David himself.

[Slutty Badger]

I still want to see David in a JCB Fastrac.

[Wweyland]

Want to see practical effects and non-stupid characters.

A good, intense movie.

[David Weyland]

A movie so good that it unites the fan base and nobody ever has to post to argue or speculate on the forum ever again

I think it's fair to say that there is a LOT riding on Romulus. A WHOLE LOT.

[BigDaddyJohn]

Where would be the fun if we unite ?

My fear is the film will give everything fans want but ultimately will be nothing new. Its characters and story will need to stand pretty strong on its own merits so it doesn't fall into the "ho-hum" category. I mean, I'm not expecting it to rival the Oscar caliber of the first two movies, but I think it's definitely gotta bring something pretty strong to the table.

New doesn't always mean good. But from what I read and heard, there's definitely "new" stuff here.

Whilst I agree, I think one of the reasons the franchise stumbled was because of the obsession to provide something new. I think a back to basics approach will work for Romulus but it is certainly a one shot deal. If Romulus does well where do they go from here for future theatrical releases?

But I totally see where you are coming from. Even though I marvel at the production design of what we have seen so far, I keep thinking of why Renny Harlin walked away from Alien 3 because it was all a rehash of guns, corridors and bulkheads.

As said I'm predicting it'll be the Prey of the franchise.

[BigDaddyJohn]

So it'll be overall good, but kinda forgettable ?

[426Buddy]

Or it'll be a hit and the reactions will be overall very positive. However some will hate it and others will find it meh.
