Alien Covenant

[Moose-Knuckle]

The Alien series ended at Prometheus. Now they are continuing with the ruining of the narrative and it sucks. That giant alien that looks human like is stupid. The spores releasing special alien DNA is stupid. So we're supposed to believe that a second trip was planned to the same planet that a whole group of idiots died on? Don't think so.

No, in Prometheus the planet LV-223 does not have an atmosphere that will support human life. This is why they had to wear their space suits. In Covenant the crew is not wearing any space suits as they disembark their ship. It is an Earth like planet with vegetation and liquid water as scene in the trailers. I believe this is the planet where David-8 and Dr. Shaw "landed" on after leaving LV-223 at the end of Prometheus.

Don't know about the spores, just a guess on my part.

Once possible explanation is that the crew of the Covenant veered from their intended course to respond to a distress call and ended up on the planet she and David landed on.

James Franco and Danny McBride doing serious roles? I thought we may be in for Pineapple Express II, outer space exploration.

They're part of the Hollywood club. That means they must give good head or have some other similar skills for the producers to let them climb the career ladder.

Anyways, I am a lifelong Alien franchise fan, love Giger, like Ridley Scott, but will be giving this a miss.
Prometheus sucked balls. More bread and circuses.

James Franco has been in some good non-comedic roles.

11.22.63 he was a time traveling teacher attempting to prevent the assassination of JFK.

Flyboys was another one of my favorites where he portrays an American in the Lafayette Escadrille prior to America's entry in WWI.

Actually that was pretty interesting.

11.22.63 was such a waste of time.

If I could go back to the early 60s, I would be swimming in AR-10s, Beatnik chicks, and Colt Pythons. I'd punch out John Lennon. And the SF advisors to Vietnam would get a mystery crate of HK416 10.5, MK. 18s, suppressors, 240s, Milkors, Laser range finders, NODs and all manner of maps and time lines

But that's just me

One of Stephen Kings' better modern tales.

I liked how he took the old man's advice and had some pie, that's what I would do if I could go back to the 60's. Spend some time in a eatery and eat REAL FOOD.

Yep. No matter what you brought the SF guys, wouldn't have changed much. They were kicking ass and we destroyed the VC at Tet but Cronkite declared it a victory for the North and the pro communist youth movement back home snatched defeat from the jaws of victory.

Best thing you could do if given the chance is enjoy the food, girls in go go boots and things like that. If I brought anything back it would be a copy of Ann Coulters book "Treason" as a gift for Joe McCarthy.

Yeah.....oh there would be lots of freaky deaky beatnik relations. Food.....meh. Maybe a real classic corndog. With mustard.


I know giving the SF guys ATACs iX tigers and so on wouldn't really change anything but since I'm going to be taking advantage of a lot of beatnik girls and scamming a bunch of Original AR-10s and Pythons....maybe giving them all that stuff would assuage some guilt pangs.

Actually.....no. No I wouldn't. If the Russians or the Chinese got ahold of any of it; that would alter history.

Plus HIV has been around the US since at least the 50s. Plus pumping and dumping a bunch of young, emotional hipster chicks would create some bizarre wave of Super-Feminism where males are slaughtered and used as breeding stock where every single woman is in sync. I watched a lot of weird Skinemax movies to know that all female lesbo planets can be vicious and arcane.

And all those guns I bought/stole would probably trigger and add more legitimacy to the ATF. "Hey.....who's getting all these Pythons and AR-10s?! And WHY?

Doc Brown was right. Messing with time would have dire consequences.

But time travel is impossible anyways.
