This worries me more than allays my fears tbh. Scott, to me, only cares about the franchise for ego reasons and feels he was solely responsible for its success, which, again, for my money, simply isn’t true. Alien was lightning in a bottle and the progeny of many genius minds.
I do actually think Romulus will be great, based on what I’ve heard, not because Scott says so.
Great to see so many Alien fans on here though! I’m a huge, huge fan of the franchise - well, the first three any way - and is my second passion only to Spurs!
I believe they actually started filming this in Thailand, but it was obviously quickly shut down because of the strike.
Really interesting you have this view. I hope they leave the mysteries of the original films well alone, even if David’s arc not concluding feels v unsatisfying to some.
To me, the questions in the original films have always been way more interesting than the answers. I just hope the characters are more memorable than the last two. For me, the original trilogy succeeded as it was about ordinary people - yeah, yeah, forget the rapists and murderers in 3! - whose characters are drawn and expressed wonderfully, being placed in extraordinary circumstances.
Anyway, very interested to see what Alvarez cooks up…
I highly recommend the Perfect Organism podcast series for fans. They really kicked into gear after Covenant was released in 2017 when Patrick came on board. I get a lot out of listening to them and being part of their community.

Nice one pal will check it out.
I have the bog picture podcast planned tomorrow with their Scorsese run down
I can’t say I’ve heard of it. I’ll have to check it out.
You can’t go wrong with Kermode & Mayo too. Them, PO and, obviously, TGIAG are my three must-listens!

I thought it was watchable nonsense, what were you expecting? I tried to watch White Noise, Brian and Charles, and Bones and All tonight. Now they are brick.

I was expecting watchable nonsense but I don't think it even reached that low bar, IMHO.

Haha literally did the same this weekend. Exorcist, Omen and Poltergeist
Could be because they all tell a good story with good actors instead of being filled with obnoxious teenagers and jump scares.
It's difficult to watch a modern horror without wanting the protagonist(s) to become the victim of some kind of supernatural, grisly murder.
