@@wp699 and yet who cares about eachother.? “Animals/robots aren’t humans… etc etc..” is something people say.. people are always pro human above all else until it’s time to defend yourself from another human being or worse, you make the choice to gain advantage at the expense of another human being like at your job to get that promotion. So I ask, what’s wrong with the movie?? We kill eachother and step on eachother to gain advantage all the time so who gives af what the movie portrays. Less people less mouths to feed I say
That hybrid genuinely had my hands clasped over my mouth. I was expecting some horrific, mangled monster judging from the footage of the rat exploding. But no. The music cuts out, and I saw a lanky, pale, eerily human looking *thing* that's just staring into my soul. Absolutely horrifying.

@@grimsquad273exactly. Some people are never satisfied. Big fan of the franchise, and one of the few that actually enjoyed Prometheus and Alien:Covenant. Romulus was really good, tho, imo. So much so that I’ve gone back and started re-watching previous releases.
@@NotLikeUs17completely agree everyone just has a hate mentality now, I was really young when I saw Prometheus but rewatched it recently and absolutely LOVE the plot and David creating the xenomorphs is such a cool concept also Romulus is amazing and is more of a movie to get younger audiences back into aliens, and you could just tell how much fede loved the series
To answer a question he had in 13:24, it's explained by Rook that Weyland-Yutani knew what happened in the station and placed it there to decommission it, essentially let the planetary ring get rid of their dirty work
What they did with Andy was so smart. When British ver. of him is out you’re sad that old Andy is gone but when he’s back you’re like damn we need that smart ass British dude for just a minute….
I cannot stand the opinion that alien Romulus is a callback or is just a call back movie. Freddy was able to make a movie where you actually feel like you're in the world of Alien. Every set piece and scene created was specifically made to sink you into the story and world. The way the characters act, the way they speak, these are all things that are synonymous with Alien. That's why it feels so familiar.
Right. I loved it. I saw it in IMAX & my older sister who raised me on horror films - screamed 😂I laughed at her like “gotcha!” I forget what part. Either the humanoid reveal or a different jump scare scene. It really dove you inside the film. It was a joy of an experience as a lifetime fan!
Arw you knitting technicalities in a movie that is so bad it should be illegal? 😅🤷♂️. It feels more like a fanfilm and bootlegged, than an actual full studio production with actual top paid actors. Ot reeks of "I wannabe" and ruins the whole experience if you want it to be one of the actual alien movies. It's just wrong to put it out there under the Alien name. It's not a callback, a call back, it's a hoax.
I think Romulus handles the biblical symbolism integration into the alien lore the best out of all the recent alien movies. Prometheus had the right idea but it got way too lost in the more overt internal ramifications of the story, whereas Romulus took a more subtle and sparing approach to it. Specifically the parallels between the story of Romulus/Remus and the dynamics of the crew here is a lot more ambiguous and fascinating to really think about than the more overt parallels between the story of Prometheus and the engineers. But that’s just my opinion.
I don't get why people are mad at a movie using a movie tag line. It's cliche but fun and it's such a small thing compared to all the amazing shots and sequences and story this movie pulled off. live a little guys xD
What breath of fresh air to hear something positive about this movie. It was a lot of fun, the atmosphere and details were nice, Andy was an interesting character. It wasn't perfect but Id rather enjoy an alien movie that is trying to pay homage, is appreciated.
@@wp699I thought it was hella corny too 😂😂I really enjoyed the film & everything but yeah at the end scene I was like 🙄meh. All good. Still worth the wait & worth the watch! Very glad it tied up some VERY loose ends from Prometheus/Covenant crap😂
The guy who played Andy almost captured the same awe Michael Fassbender did with David. Truly insanely talented actor. He played his two personalities perfectly. Much like David and Walter and the two differences in those two. I would LOVE to see Andy fixed and talk to David.
Also the Prometheus theme was a great callback! Gave me a big grin on my face, I don’t care what people say, that movie looked beautiful and the music was incredible.
I'm also happy that I finally know what the chestburster actually does to become the full xenomorph. apparently it just sheds and cocoons like a butterfly lol
16:08 I heard somebody say a good explanation for why he says bitch cuz when you watching a movie you can hear him say get away from her any pauses for decent amount of time before saying bitch he was trying to think of an insult and the only insult he could think of was what that one dude that hates synthetics kept calling him which was a bitch so kind of makes sense in that way
great explanation! and that line is delivered in the right way. good metaphor for the entire film. yes it's familiar, and also isn't it awesome?!! the way he takes out that alien sure is. loved this movie!!
I also think people who would hate a movie for one line which made some people happy but doesn’t fit in their world , need more things to worry about in life
I love that Cailee Spaeny has been doing great in recent years. I'm so excited to see what else she does next, she's one of the most exciting young actors working right now
I’ll be honest, I didn’t love this movie, but the one thing I must overwhelmingly praise is the production design; this film looks fantastic and feels like a perfect modernization of the first film’s aesthetic. They did a great job.
It’s theft of a line from a better actor, playing a better character in a farrrrrr better film. . Stop making excuses for this rubbish film. Next they’ll just have to dangle shiny keys in front of you and you’ll clap like a trained seal.
@@michaelsegriff3362except they always did call backs to previous movies every time. I mean resurrection opened with Ripley saying Newt’s line “my mommy always said there no monsters. No real ones but there are” or Lex calling an alien “you are one ugly mother f***er.” Even aliens reused score from the original. It’s nothing new.
7:30 i assumed his mouth moved like that bc he was all broken and messed up. Like his voicebox is working but the mtotors to move his mouth are wacking out
Yes, I think everybody noticed how Andy character stand out. When he changed his disk and started chasing bold girl, I was threatened. I hope both actor and his character will return, with some cool dark twist.
the ship out of control was the best scene for me . there obviously more memorable moments in the movie but the chaos that unfolded right after Andy got his update and that kid was trying to escape. the chestburster coming and the poor girl kicking the controls making the subsequent events take place.. the sound chaos and cinematography had me on the edge
@@shalinalewis2957 When Rook is talking about the black goo he says it helps the aliens regenerate, and it shows the mouse healing from being crushed, the alien with the electricity in its head was the one that got shocked with the shock stick and it just shows how fast it had adapted to it
Really loved this. Definitely had a lot of Alien (1979) in it. The only thing that threw me was "Ian Holm". The Deepfake just looked....offf. Much better than a practical mask but still uncanny valley.
Thank you for talking about how Andy was called a bitch earlier in the movie, so that callback line works for people who haven’t seen any of the Alien movies (which includes me)!
@1:20 Ore is basically rock that contains traces of valuable materials that can be extracted from it, not like the Spice from Dune which is fictional. Ore exists in real life and is what most mining operations extract from the ground before refining into actual valuable materials such as metals and minerals.
Was looking for this comment. Glad someone else picked up on it. Ore is an extremely general term and can be made of many types of minerals and rocks. So yeah, ore =/= spice AT ALL
The “ Get away from her you bitch” line gave the whole theatre a little chuckle. I love this movie it was genuinely a good time and the ending is not what I was expecting & that thing fucking scared me
12:35 “How could you do that?” - Rain “What? Leave someone behind?” - Andy I think that’s not only my favorite scene from the film but my favorite line as well. Andy forces Rain to acknowledge her own hypocrisy with just one short sentence. David Jonsson and Cailee Spaeny KILLED their roles.
The whole point was that she was facing a hard reality and learning synthetics are machines and not human, she had emotionally attached to a robot without feelings her whole life- then the end rescue part completely back tracked on that. Andy is just a chip with programming. He’s soulless. And she still cared more about him than any of the humans.
@@wp699Andy is also the only connection she has to her parents since her father was the one to reprogram him. Her and Andy both had to face a hard truth. Raine knew Andy would be taken when they got to yvaga. And Raine had to learn the truth about synthetics. But her saving him was reminiscent of Ripley saving Jones or Newt, but that’s the difference between humans and robots. A robot can’t appreciate life
Took my fiance who has never seen an alien movie before. She thought the get away from her line was funny and cute because he said it with a stutter. She now wants to watch all of the alien franchise. We started with Prometheus last night. Romulus is a good film. I personally liked all the call backs and homages because the plot was very different from the first alien film. You missed the Easter egg to raised by wolves btw. Remus and Romulus were twins raised by wolves. Ridley's HBO show that was killed off.
12:08, I was not expecting to care about any of the characters until Andy and his dynamic with Rain was introduced and then tested by her intending to abandon him since he's an "artificial person" and him growing distant from her as his "brother" programming is overtaken by Rook's "science officer" programming, prompting her to choose to fight through the Xenomorphs to get him back.
Honestly I understand why (in verse) they brought back Daniel(Ash/Rook) rather than Lance (Bishop) because remember in aliens, Ripley freaked out learning Bishop was a synthetic when they were all eating and bishop specifically states that the models before him with malfunctioning and they got rid of them. If this takes place years before aliens, this is probably why they went this route. They probably tried prosthetics but you know studios. Especially sense Disney is “proud” of the deepfakes. If Fede Alvarez used all prosthetics for the most part and doesn’t have a history of using CGI like that, this points to Disney being the culprit. And of course no one can say anything about it. Big Mickey requires your silence 🙄
After making this, Fede said it was easier to pay one man over multiple animators on top of an actor. Personally I’d love to see Rook more battered, looking like Bishop in alien 3, like a full on animatronic. Though I can see what they were going for
4:40 about the side note; ridley scott is referring to the engineers and the reason why in the movie Prometheus, they might have wanted to use the black goo for humanities extinction, it doesn't have anything to do with the xenomorphs.
That’s not needed we already know what happened and Isolation is a better experience as a game, but given Romulus’s time in the series (5 years after Isolation) i wouldn’t discount an Amanda Ripley appearance in a Romulus sequel,
an important note, the directors did ask ian holme’s widow for permission and her thoughts on it and she was very enthusiastic about holme’s post-mortem cameo. plus, i think at the very least the CGI as rough as it looks, adds to the creepiness of rook being a human-looking robot who is all torn up
Btw fun fact for Rooks actor, his wife said before he passed he wanted to come back and do it and had wanted to be in another film for years also Rooks model was used by weyland for special missions such as the whole of romulus
I kinda wish they'd gone for, say, "Get away from my sister" or something similar, it's one of the very few things that sits oddly for me, otherwise loved the movie
The issue with the alien franchise is besides Ripley, the Xenomorph is the most interesting character. These disposable casts that constantly cycle through fire franchises are difficult to root for. They feel like cannon fodder to progress the plot. I’ve never cared for any of them or rooted for their survival.
It was the Deacon in Prometheus. Prometheus and Covenant show David’s work and progression to the Xenomorph…well, just short of it. We dont see him finalize it. We see the Proetomorph in Covenant. But its implied David ends up creating the Xenomorph…in Alien content it literally goes from Covenant to Xenomorphs being everywhere. There is 1 comic that shows that another Advanced Alien species may have created the Xenomorphs earlier than David and separately. So my theory? The same as Dead Space. Or similar. A species evolves or is created by the Engineers. Eventually becoming space faring. Either they become a selfless species OR a selfish one ultimately creating Xenomorphs in some way. Kind of how in Dead Space, humans own hubris causes them to create red markers. If you didn’t know. I think its cannon or at least it was an idea that Jesus was an engineer. Essentially they didnt like how selfish humans got. Sent Jesus to save them. Humans killed Jesus. So they decided humans had to go, but crashed on the planet in Prometheus But the deacon seems to be the first stage. And they can grow to the size of mountains. Immovable though. Anyways, xenomorphs are the cleaner of a species hubris. If you want a full recap of the entire franchise, go to Movie Balls Deep. Has a 2.5 hour video of EVERYTHING. Great video to listen to while at work or doing chores Also Khroft Talks about movies. He does updates when new information or script leaks drop. I’ve become an Alien expert in like a week 😂
The adult Xenomorphs were the scariest they've ever been, thanks to the decision to use practical effects over CGI. The Offspring jumpscared me at the end, though because I was able to predict so much of it, that was the only jumpscare. But the most intense element of horror in the film was the way the facehugger _manumala noxhydria_ did Navarro once it choked her out, because it evoked such a sense of absolute _WRONGNESS._
I had no jump-scares. But that is probably due to my desensitization😂my older sister, introduced me to horror films in general, & she got jump scared 3 times lmao. It was a great watch. Super glad that they fixed the “black goo” element & how they were using it. Really saved the franchise!
"floating around like george clooney" at 2.28 is one of the funniest jokes I've heard all week but probably flew over a lot of heads if you didn't see Gravity
Or perhaps Prometheus 3, since it doesn't really go back to the original Alien Roots at all. It's just all the elements of Prometheus in an Alien setting which also features all the old memoirs and old lines, and additional nostalgic segments from the old Alien films. I wish I never saw this poor excuse of a film ever!
@@georgejonesthestarseeds77 Xenomorphs and facehuggers hunting a small, unequipped crew on a derelict spaceship, and you think "this just SCREAMS Prometheus"
I loved the look of Rook. The cgi/ practical animatronic gave him an uncanny valley effect I enjoyed. He’s an older ai bot that was corroded and cut in half I liked that he didn’t just look like a human
He was pretty annoying but remember Andy is just a machine and bjorn hated them because of what one did to his family and he has the knowledge and life experience to know that it’s just a soulless calculating thing made to look human. I don’t buy this whole robots have feelings too thing they were pushing in the movie. At first seemed like the mc was slowly realizing that her world view about synthetics was wrong and that Andy wasn’t actually her brother and was just a machine meant to make calculations and follow orders, but her rescuing him completely back tracked on it. Bjorn treated Andy that way cuz he knew what he actually was, while the mc was in fairy land and decided to stay in fairy land.
@@wp699 It wasn't just the anomosity towards Andy. The dipshit was putting the whole mission/crew at risk even before they took off because he couldn't keep his mouth shut, he kept up the antagonism to the most essential team on that mission, and then after the pilot was infected, he almost wrecks their only way off the station and cuts their time to escape even shorter attempting to abandon literally everyone else. He's lucky he died for waking up the Xenomorph like an idiot, because his cousin would've been wise to shoot him out of an airlock at that point. Props to the actor for doing such a good job portraying such a crappy character, but this guy should've been left behind in the mines.

Great breakdown, the movie was good fun! 🍿I can't stand the youtubers that make a living out of bashing and trashing instead of critiquing. Cailee Spaeny and David Jonsson were excellent.
That had a reason. They need living bodies to attach Facehuggers to them. So it made semse saving her. Her friend got put into the nest too. So they simply wanted another host
Saved her so that a facehugger could attach to her, you see the facehugger coming seconds later. Though they definitely could've communicated it better
She had destroyed the hive with the pulse rifle, so its main priority was to rebuild the hive. So it held her down for a facehugger to get her. You can literally see the facehugger approaching
Saw it this week. As a lad of 16 bunking off college and queuing round the block in '79, this was the entertainment equivalent of chewing cardboard. Not an original bone in its body. Literally a 180 degree concept spin against the films in recent years. Two hour 'best of' is not a film. Shame, I had such high hopes.
How can you spoil an Alien movie? Haha. I personally hated the whole Prometheus spin. The Alien is obviously a bioweapons, probably used to clear out planets in a long forgotten war. I felt it more like the Berserker (Fred Saberhagen) series than this stupid progenitor idea. The fact that the corpos want to use the alien as an urban weapon fits this idea much better, and is much more relevant then the Prometheus spin. The whole Prometheus thing turned me off on the series.

Romulus was really good, tho, imo. So much so that I’ve gone back and started re-watching previous releases.
@@NotLikeUs17completely agree everyone just has a hate mentality now, I was really young when I saw Prometheus but rewatched it recently and absolutely LOVE the plot and David creating the xenomorphs is such a cool concept also Romulus is amazing and is more of a movie to get younger audiences back into aliens, and you could just tell how much fede loved the series
2:48 the reason why the prequels look all shiny and new is because of the difference in wealth between each crew.
That’s what I figured too. I mean the Prometheus and Covenant were the most expensive missions.
No. It's about the concept design.
Space truckers would not be rolling in a clean fancy rig compared to the boss of weyland-yutani corps
Gotta practice discernment in times of abundance.
To answer a question he had in 13:24, it's explained by Rook that Weyland-Yutani knew what happened in the station and placed it there to decommission it, essentially let the planetary ring get rid of their dirty work
It seems the transmission takes 6 months as Weyland Yutani andriod explains how long transmission times takes, so they didn't know quite yet.
“Decommission” while everyone is getting slaughtered

What they did with Andy was so smart. When British ver. of him is out you’re sad that old Andy is gone but when he’s back you’re like damn we need that smart ass British dude for just a minute….
i don't know about the other films but alien, romulus, and aliens is the perfect trilogy for me.
Quadrilogy for me, cause I’m adding isolation in my headcanon lol
I cannot stand the opinion that alien Romulus is a callback or is just a call back movie. Freddy was able to make a movie where you actually feel like you're in the world of Alien. Every set piece and scene created was specifically made to sink you into the story and world. The way the characters act, the way they speak, these are all things that are synonymous with Alien. That's why it feels so familiar.
Right. I loved it. I saw it in IMAX & my older sister who raised me on horror films - screamed 😂I laughed at her like “gotcha!” I forget what part. Either the humanoid reveal or a different jump scare scene. It really dove you inside the film. It was a joy of an experience as a lifetime fan!
Arw you knitting technicalities in a movie that is so bad it should be illegal? 😅🤷♂️. It feels more like a fanfilm and bootlegged, than an actual full studio production with actual top paid actors. Ot reeks of "I wannabe" and ruins the whole experience if you want it to be one of the actual alien movies. It's just wrong to put it out there under the Alien name. It's not a callback, a call back, it's a hoax.
@@krimke881 this guy is a 1980s films did it better. Lmao
@@krimke881yeah cool mate
well said!
I think Romulus handles the biblical symbolism integration into the alien lore the best out of all the recent alien movies. Prometheus had the right idea but it got way too lost in the more overt internal ramifications of the story, whereas Romulus took a more subtle and sparing approach to it.
Specifically the parallels between the story of Romulus/Remus and the dynamics of the crew here is a lot more ambiguous and fascinating to really think about than the more overt parallels between the story of Prometheus and the engineers. But that’s just my opinion.
I don't get why people are mad at a movie using a movie tag line. It's cliche but fun and it's such a small thing compared to all the amazing shots and sequences and story this movie pulled off. live a little guys xD

I kept saying save whenever I saw onw
That's one thing I noticed, when ever you saw a save station something bad was right around the corner. Loved this movie.
bro, half the crew was a The Last of Us callback, even the town was called Jackson, like tommies town.
What breath of fresh air to hear something positive about this movie. It was a lot of fun, the atmosphere and details were nice, Andy was an interesting character. It wasn't perfect but Id rather enjoy an alien movie that is trying to pay homage, is appreciated.

The guy who played Andy almost captured the same awe Michael Fassbender did with David. Truly insanely talented actor.
He played his two personalities perfectly.
Much like David and Walter and the two differences in those two.
I would LOVE to see Andy fixed and talk to David.
Also the Prometheus theme was a great callback! Gave me a big grin on my face, I don’t care what people say, that movie looked beautiful and the music was incredible.
I'm also happy that I finally know what the chestburster actually does to become the full xenomorph. apparently it just sheds and cocoons like a butterfly lol
it sheds in the original movie but it doesn’t show the cocoon
dawg pretty much every movie shows the shed chest burster skin 😭 even avp requiem
Yeah and increases its mass twenty times in a matter of minutes, really great logic totally keeps me in the action oh yeah yay cool man
16:08 I heard somebody say a good explanation for why he says bitch cuz when you watching a movie you can hear him say get away from her any pauses for decent amount of time before saying bitch he was trying to think of an insult and the only insult he could think of was what that one dude that hates synthetics kept calling him which was a bitch so kind of makes sense in that way
Personally I thought it would’ve worked if he said it while jumping, but cut the “you bitch” part. But in that context, I’m fine with it
great explanation! and that line is delivered in the right way. good metaphor for the entire film. yes it's familiar, and also isn't it awesome?!! the way he takes out that alien sure is. loved this movie!!
I also think people who would hate a movie for one line which made some people happy but doesn’t fit in their world , need more things to worry about in life

She was a stand out in an otherwise disappointing movie, ‘Civil War’.
@@Brinkburn_Gymnasiumdon’t compare this to marvel
I’ll be honest, I didn’t love this movie, but the one thing I must overwhelmingly praise is the production design; this film looks fantastic and feels like a perfect modernization of the first film’s aesthetic. They did a great job.
the actor that plays the android was beyond GODLIKE he carry all the movie
Agreed! The Android was trying to help more than hinder! Handed them da off da chain guns! Always love the sound of the pulse rifles!?🤤
Agreed! He was the only character that I identified with/liked.
He’s the only android that I liked tbh
" I prefer artificial human" is obviously their programing response to being called an android or what ever
It’s theft of a line from a better actor, playing a better character in a farrrrrr better film. . Stop making excuses for this rubbish film. Next they’ll just have to dangle shiny keys in front of you and you’ll clap like a trained seal.

Thank you!
the ship out of control was the best scene for me . there obviously more memorable moments in the movie but the chaos that unfolded right after Andy got his update and that kid was trying to escape. the chestburster coming and the poor girl kicking the controls making the subsequent events take place..
the sound chaos and cinematography had me on the edge
Why is no one talking about the xeno that had electricity in its head??
Cause it died pretty quick lol
Right, that's the one Bjorn shocked.
@@shalinalewis2957 When Rook is talking about the black goo he says it helps the aliens regenerate, and it shows the mouse healing from being crushed, the alien with the electricity in its head was the one that got shocked with the shock stick and it just shows how fast it had adapted to it
@@oldbloodben1310 yes, I thought that was a nice touch to really show how adaptable they are.
Part of the prod is still stuck in its head I believe.
Really loved this. Definitely had a lot of Alien (1979) in it. The only thing that threw me was "Ian Holm". The Deepfake just looked....offf. Much better than a practical mask but still uncanny valley.
It was an animatronic head. They used deep fake for the mouth lip syncing
i liked to think that it looked like that because he was broken
Thank you for talking about how Andy was called a bitch earlier in the movie, so that callback line works for people who haven’t seen any of the Alien movies (which includes me)!
@1:20 Ore is basically rock that contains traces of valuable materials that can be extracted from it, not like the Spice from Dune which is fictional. Ore exists in real life and is what most mining operations extract from the ground before refining into actual valuable materials such as metals and minerals.
Jes.
Spices exist in real life.
@@mattgilbert7347 "The spice from dune" is a pretty specific term.

Was looking for this comment. Glad someone else picked up on it. Ore is an extremely general term and can be made of many types of minerals and rocks. So yeah, ore =/= spice AT ALL
Ore is a real thing. Read a book.

Great recap and research! I seriously love your subtle jokes and chill vibes. You're killing it bro
Andy was an absolutely wonderful addition to the artificial person lineup. His reboot sequence gave me straight up chills
7:36 it reminded me of the creepy cgi baby in twilight
This was cuter than both that baby, and the original 60lb animatronic they tried to use
Let me explain, goes onto explain the whole entire story scene by scene 👏
Bro the movie gave me the same feelings i got when playing Alien Isolation
Same, minus the about 15 hours Amanda was on Sevastopol
The “ Get away from her you bitch” line gave the whole theatre a little chuckle.
I love this movie it was genuinely a good time and the ending is not what I was expecting & that thing fucking scared me
12:35
“How could you do that?” - Rain
“What? Leave someone behind?” - Andy
I think that’s not only my favorite scene from the film but my favorite line as well. Andy forces Rain to acknowledge her own hypocrisy with just one short sentence. David Jonsson and Cailee Spaeny KILLED their roles.
The whole point was that she was facing a hard reality and learning synthetics are machines and not human, she had emotionally attached to a robot without feelings her whole life- then the end rescue part completely back tracked on that. Andy is just a chip with programming. He’s soulless. And she still cared more about him than any of the humans.
@@wp699Andy is also the only connection she has to her parents since her father was the one to reprogram him. Her and Andy both had to face a hard truth. Raine knew Andy would be taken when they got to yvaga. And Raine had to learn the truth about synthetics. But her saving him was reminiscent of Ripley saving Jones or Newt, but that’s the difference between humans and robots. A robot can’t appreciate life
Took my fiance who has never seen an alien movie before. She thought the get away from her line was funny and cute because he said it with a stutter. She now wants to watch all of the alien franchise. We started with Prometheus last night. Romulus is a good film. I personally liked all the call backs and homages because the plot was very different from the first alien film. You missed the Easter egg to raised by wolves btw. Remus and Romulus were twins raised by wolves. Ridley's HBO show that was killed off.
22:25
Lmfao I stopped at 22:20
I actually loved david jonnson that played andy. I think he did fantastic portraiting him
12:08, I was not expecting to care about any of the characters until Andy and his dynamic with Rain was introduced and then tested by her intending to abandon him since he's an "artificial person" and him growing distant from her as his "brother" programming is overtaken by Rook's "science officer" programming, prompting her to choose to fight through the Xenomorphs to get him back.
Honestly I understand why (in verse) they brought back Daniel(Ash/Rook) rather than Lance (Bishop) because remember in aliens, Ripley freaked out learning Bishop was a synthetic when they were all eating and bishop specifically states that the models before him with malfunctioning and they got rid of them. If this takes place years before aliens, this is probably why they went this route. They probably tried prosthetics but you know studios. Especially sense Disney is “proud” of the deepfakes. If Fede Alvarez used all prosthetics for the most part and doesn’t have a history of using CGI like that, this points to Disney being the culprit. And of course no one can say anything about it. Big Mickey requires your silence 🙄
After making this, Fede said it was easier to pay one man over multiple animators on top of an actor. Personally I’d love to see Rook more battered, looking like Bishop in alien 3, like a full on animatronic. Though I can see what they were going for
Was pretty cool to see the emergency phone booth (saving point) from Alien isolation.
That Neil Blomkamp headline at 20:26 has to be one of the funniest headlines I've read.
I’m glad I wasn’t the only one who thought that look was weird
4:40 about the side note; ridley scott is referring to the engineers and the reason why in the movie Prometheus, they might have wanted to use the black goo for humanities extinction, it doesn't have anything to do with the xenomorphs.
Thank you for mentioning Isolation. I thought Romulus was going to even bring up Isolation, what a great game and good movie!
I took the prequels shininess as a result of class. Considering who personally organized the mission and why.
That’s a great point!
That was extremely well put and make so much sense. A actor acting like a robot with human emotion is better then just most human acting.wild
They should make isolation into a movie
That’s not needed we already know what happened and Isolation is a better experience as a game, but given Romulus’s time in the series (5 years after Isolation) i wouldn’t discount an Amanda Ripley appearance in a Romulus sequel,
an important note, the directors did ask ian holme’s widow for permission and her thoughts on it and she was very enthusiastic about holme’s post-mortem cameo. plus, i think at the very least the CGI as rough as it looks, adds to the creepiness of rook being a human-looking robot who is all torn up
I agree ,him looking slightly off,blends perfectly with his current condition

Dora starts exploring line killed me 😂🤣
Btw fun fact for Rooks actor, his wife said before he passed he wanted to come back and do it and had wanted to be in another film for years also Rooks model was used by weyland for special missions such as the whole of romulus
“I want an answer, not an explanation.” - Ripley, Alien, 1979. Far superior film.
Andy was the best part! I need more of him!
I love this movie. Ive seen it twice the first dolby second time 4D.
Fede alvarez did a great job.
"Get away from her, you b****!" is the Alien universe's version of Star Wars' "I have a bad feeling about this."
I kinda wish they'd gone for, say, "Get away from my sister" or something similar, it's one of the very few things that sits oddly for me, otherwise loved the movie
when he said eerie engineers and shows a face of an engineer smiling at 18:58, one person reminds me of it. Zuckerberg. I know you saw it too. lol
The issue with the alien franchise is besides Ripley, the Xenomorph is the most interesting character. These disposable casts that constantly cycle through fire franchises are difficult to root for. They feel like cannon fodder to progress the plot. I’ve never cared for any of them or rooted for their survival.
my one main complaint: IT'S TOO DAMN DARK! BRING BACK THE BRIGHT BLUE DARKNESS OF OLD!!
That’s aliens. This was more in line with the original movie
It's not that dark bro.
@@SPOOPY_MUG I’m hoping it’s a joke, especially since only 2 of the movies had a type of blue hue
@@SPOOPY_MUG not dark at all, they showed TOO MUCH
The lighting in this movie was quite good imo.
love your references you make haha
It was the Deacon in Prometheus.
Prometheus and Covenant show David’s work and progression to the Xenomorph…well, just short of it. We dont see him finalize it. We see the Proetomorph in Covenant. But its implied David ends up creating the Xenomorph…in Alien content it literally goes from Covenant to Xenomorphs being everywhere.
There is 1 comic that shows that another Advanced Alien species may have created the Xenomorphs earlier than David and separately.
So my theory? The same as Dead Space. Or similar.
A species evolves or is created by the Engineers. Eventually becoming space faring. Either they become a selfless species OR a selfish one ultimately creating Xenomorphs in some way.
Kind of how in Dead Space, humans own hubris causes them to create red markers.
If you didn’t know. I think its cannon or at least it was an idea that Jesus was an engineer. Essentially they didnt like how selfish humans got. Sent Jesus to save them. Humans killed Jesus. So they decided humans had to go, but crashed on the planet in Prometheus
But the deacon seems to be the first stage. And they can grow to the size of mountains. Immovable though.
Anyways, xenomorphs are the cleaner of a species hubris.

When I saw this, I never expected to see Orphan of Kos being birthed once more.
The adult Xenomorphs were the scariest they've ever been, thanks to the decision to use practical effects over CGI. The Offspring jumpscared me at the end, though because I was able to predict so much of it, that was the only jumpscare. But the most intense element of horror in the film was the way the facehugger _manumala noxhydria_ did Navarro once it choked her out, because it evoked such a sense of absolute _WRONGNESS._
I had no jump-scares. But that is probably due to my desensitization😂my older sister, introduced me to horror films in general, & she got jump scared 3 times lmao. It was a great watch. Super glad that they fixed the “black goo” element & how they were using it. Really saved the franchise!

Or perhaps Prometheus 3, since it doesn't really go back to the original Alien Roots at all. It's just all the elements of Prometheus in an Alien setting which also features all the old memoirs and old lines, and additional nostalgic segments from the old Alien films.

At first seemed like the mc was slowly realizing that her world view about synthetics was wrong and that Andy wasn’t actually her brother and was just a machine meant to make calculations and follow orders, but her rescuing him completely back tracked on it. Bjorn treated Andy that way cuz he knew what he actually was, while the mc was in fairy land and decided to stay in fairy land.

Great breakdown, the movie was good fun! 🍿I can't stand the youtubers that make a living out of bashing and trashing instead of critiquing. Cailee Spaeny and David Jonsson were excellent.
That random Xeno saving her from falling to her death WAS so random
That had a reason. They need living bodies to attach Facehuggers to them. So it made semse saving her. Her friend got put into the nest too. So they simply wanted another host
it's like it's not a poor movie.......errrm
Saved her so that a facehugger could attach to her, you see the facehugger coming seconds later. Though they definitely could've communicated it better
Agreed, people's facehugger defense is weak, the way it just randomly plucked her from the air mid fall was really jarring.
She had destroyed the hive with the pulse rifle, so its main priority was to rebuild the hive. So it held her down for a facehugger to get her. You can literally see the facehugger approaching
the hybrid at the end had me more scared then ive felt with alien movies in a while lol
Saw it this week. As a lad of 16 bunking off college and queuing round the block in '79, this was the entertainment equivalent of chewing cardboard. Not an original bone in its body. Literally a 180 degree concept spin against the films in recent years. Two hour 'best of' is not a film. Shame, I had such high hopes.
Lol
I actually never saw an Alien movie, and I thought this one was very entertaining.
How can you spoil an Alien movie? Haha. I personally hated the whole Prometheus spin. The Alien is obviously a bioweapons, probably used to clear out planets in a long forgotten war. I felt it more like the Berserker (Fred Saberhagen) series than this stupid progenitor idea. The fact that the corpos want to use the alien as an urban weapon fits this idea much better, and is much more relevant then the Prometheus spin. The whole Prometheus thing turned me off on the series.
I watched in theatres , really enjoyed it.
