Watched that Alien Romulus last night.
6/10 no intention of watching it a second time.

It was good until it wasn't
And then it really, really wasn't

I liked the world building at the beginning. It raised my hopes for what, I was certain, would be a terrible film
Also, the lad who played the synthetic was superb. The way his personality changed when he got the 'upgrade' was almost like watching a different actor. But then the rest of the movie happened.

Yeah, his performance was good
The less said about the deepfake Ian Holm the better though.

That shit didn't even make sense!
I thought it would have made more sense for it to be "a David". At least they could have got the actual Fassbender, and not that awful uncanny valley nonsense

It got ridiculous
And all the cheesy callbacks to the first two.

That's when movies lose me
I don't need constant reminders of what I'm watching. Look, a tie fighter! Remember tie fighters???? Ugh
( Two Hats 🎩🎩, Mon 3 Mar 2025, 8:59, archived)

Exactly
Who wears a tie these days?

Fighters.

I could just about ignore them until the "get away from her, you bitch" moment.
The poor actor couldn't work out how to deliver a line that made absolutely no sense for his character, and it's the one duff moment in his performance.

I quite liked it, but then again I liked Prometheus

( Cheers Cheers, Mon 3 Mar 2025, 9:18, archived)

I thought Prometheus didn't deserve the slating it got.

(Smegg Wallace The O.G. Q.R., Mon 3 Mar 2025, 9:27, archived)

agreed

( Cheers Cheers, Mon 3 Mar 2025, 9:31, archived)

I also enjoyed Prometheus
