Re: What movies are you watching?
I think Covenant is a weird, fucked up gothic horror movie that is very ambitious and also a lot of fun the whole way through. And it looks great. I also really like Prometheus. It's a shame that Scott didn't get to finish that trilogy

I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

Did not expect anyone to say it looks great, I think it looks cheap in several places and has dodgier cgi than Prometheus.

Re: What movies are you watching?
Prometheus was frustrating. Some cool stuff, but some of the most catastrophically dumb plot points I've ever seen. Never saw the other one.

Re: What movies are you watching?
I somewhat agree, minus the hyperbole, but I still really like it. Same with Covenant. I like all the Alien movies. The cool stuff always outweighs the dumb stuff for me.BurtReynolds wrote:Prometheus was frustrating. Some cool stuff, but some of the most catastrophically dumb plot points I've ever seen.

Great movies. CGI isn't the only thing driving Covenant's appearance (although I still consider it to be decent). Bit of a poo brained take, that.

I don't know how you could say Covenant and Prometheus don't look great. Unless you really like color.
