Just incase we needed any more reminding that The Rings of Power is a soulless, directionless, talentless money pit.
Disney are doing a sequel to Willow. Looks alright!

Also quite a bit younger than you might think.
Unrelated but there’s an Alien TV series coming 2023 too.

Jesus Christ. That Alien TV series sound fucking horrible.
"In mine, you’re also going to see the people who are sending them. So you will see what happens when the inequality we’re struggling with now isn’t resolved. If we as a society can’t figure out how to prop each other up and spread the wealth, then what’s going to happen to us?"

You mean you don't watch entertainment series to be lectured about how shit society is and how you're not good enough as a person?

You know what would have been really good?
A prequel series set in the Alien universe dealing with the Weyland-Yutani corporation from an internal perspective. A bit like 'For All Mankind', but focusing on all the corporate malevolence that W-Y are so synonymous with.
You could still focus somewhat on the 'Capitalism BAD, Socialism GOOD!' woke bullshit without shoehorning it into the plot in such a hamfisted manner, and I reckon it'd be a far fresher direction than releasing yet another 'Xenomorphs, but different!' instalment into an already tired formula
David was by far the most interesting element in Prometheus/Alien: Covenant. There's so much potential to explore that side of things.
God forbid a story-driven feature becomes popular in this day and age, though. Apparently folk are already complaining that House of the Dragon is too slow...

The Boys already has the outright corporate malevolence angle pretty well covered. What I find more interesting is people doing bad things but with good intentions.
And I'll agree about David. There's a lot of good ideas in Prometheus, but they needed another couple of redrafts of the script to get rid of all the stupid. Thematically the film was closer to Blade Runner than Alien and really should have been handled as such.

The Boys is absolutely fantastic.
The satire is absolutely pin-sharp, but I'd like to see a more dramatic angle and I reckon Weyland-Yutani would be an absolutely ideal fictional corporation to base it on. Probably never going to happen though, sadly.

Of course
Preachy condescending woke script writing always has me on the edge of my seat wondering how the evil corporate patriarchy is going to be smashed by a mixed race teenage girl this time.
The only time it is better than that is when the righteous heroes win with the power of love.

Shoehorning him into the new Top Gun as "guy on the verge of death" was probably a bit too on the nose.

What a sequel, though.
That canyon scene was absolutely bonkers.

It was great, as long as you left your brain at the door and didn't start asking awkward questions like "why not send in a B2 to pulverise it with those huge bombs they've got specifically for this mission?"
