Alien: Covenant

Ridley Scott seems to be doing it again first it was Prometheus 2 now its moved on too some sort of zombie alien end of the world as it seems to stand at the moment.

Has Ridley's cheese fallen off the cracker only time will tell.

Ridley Scott, 78, told Empire Magazine last year that the film will 'connect' the strands between the Prometheus trilogy and the character of Ellen Ripley, who served as the protagonist in the Alien series

Sounds quite promising....

Does it? Already Prometheus was very lame, barely covered by foul excuses.

I like many of Scott's movies, some are amongst my all time stars - but he also shot some hilariously lousy movies as well.

I only hope Blade Runner 2 will never become reality. Ruining that heritage as well I would not forgive him. Sometimes great things of the past better should be left alone instead of trying to repeat them, no matter the cost. Prometheus already was a warning.

I must admit I am worried this may turn out to be visually a good looking film but the storyline all over the place and confusing.

I agree with Skybird, please Ridley do not do Blade Runner 2.

Yep.
I'm not that affraid it wil go into Michael Bay teritory, writing some shell of a story around explosions, but it will go into artsy fartsy deep meaning of origin of life and our place in the void, M. Shaylaman level of confusing the audience and then responding by [use heavy arristocratic voice] ''you peasants do not understand my deep meaning and the art of cinematography''

I, for one, am excited for this.

There's also a plan in the works for a Neil Blomkamp Alien film so I've heard.

Supposed to undo Alien 3 and Rez?

Alien: Covenant release date has been pulled forward to May 19 (from August 4).

Two new production stills have been released.

There's also a rumour that the first trailer might be released in the following few days (it has been rated already).

Platapus · 12-20-16, 07:19 PM

That is an awesome picture. Where do you guys find these.

Dowly · 12-24-16, 02:17 AM

And another still.

See what happens when you ignore the no sex in the shower sign.

Thank You Dowly.
