Alien: Romulus / Re: Alien Romulus connections ...

While I don't known how much this connects to the prequels, I just hope its very minimal and to the point it can be ignored.

I don't think future alien media should reference the prequels. Give Ridley a chance to make his finale and then close the door on it and then have it classed as a wild "what if" scenario for alien origins.

Quote from: Mike's Monsters on Yesterday at 05:46:38 PMThe funny thing about Fede saying he cut the trailer... we had confirmation that a production house had made it. So maybe he did a rough cut and passed it on to the studio, but he didn't make the whole thing himself. Marketing is funny, it's the same as that "no cgi" talk with films like Top Gun. They used a shit ton of CGI on that film, and they will be with Romulus too, even likely replacing practical effects at times. They're going to have to.

Not sure why they gotta fib a bit to make it sound cooler. Just tell the truth!

Yeah that is not the best way to create good will or trust with the audience.
While some folk prefer practical effects (me included), that doesn't mean they are against cgi or consider it a cardinal sin that should be lied about. CGI is fine but it should only be used to do things a practical effect can not. Unfortunately some films use it as a shortcut.

Yeah, I was completely baffled by the information that they digitally removed the blue screens from the BTS footage and photos of Barbie. The lie that it is all done in camera is a weird one.

What's extra gross right now is the officially released "behind the scenes footage" going around for some movies lately that makes it a point to remove green screens (and any other equivalents for keying purposes) from what's being presented in the frame, as if they were never used.
