I loved Prometheus, I thought it was going deep canon on the Alien franchise, and even though it wasn’t perfect I so very much dug it, Ridley Scott saw some bad reviews, pussied out, and put Alien:Covenant out there to undo all the stuff he began with Prometheus. Covenant was such a garbage forgettable movie, followed by Romulus which was garage/fan service waste of time. Oh for the timeline we could have had, had they built upon the canon/story of Prometheus.
So true, Prometheus did a lot of the hard stuff right and then really made a mess of pretty basic things like dialogue and believable character motivations. Instead of tightening that stuff up in the sequel he just completely dumbed down the entire franchise again in Covenant to the extent that it is once again a complete waste of time (see Romulus).
Same here. Pretty disappointed with how the momentum created with Prometheus got lost in Covenant and then how the saga completely derailed with this last excuse of an entry. Romulus is an offense to the watcher’s intelligence and a spit in the face of long-time Alien fans. There’s no script there and it adds absolutely nothing to the series.
Star Wars VII, VIII and IX
It still absolutely baffles me that they bought the franchise for so much money, yet couldn’t even come up with a coherent story for the trilogy. Absolute tragedy.
Imagine a timeline where Lucas didn’t chicken out with Darth Jar Jar.
Convinced that was the original plan. He bottled it.
I deleted my previous replay because my brain is broken and roman numerals fuck me up, what I meant to say was Star Wars I, II, and III (not IV, V and VI, though Return has always been a lesser ran in my book)
Haha, I figured that’s what you meant when I saw that comment the first time, but then I was just like “maybe it’s just that this guy’s got some bold-ass movie opinions. Respect”
