Piccolo: Just how many people have you sacrificed?!

Cell: Sacrifice? Hmph, rubbish! On the contrary, it is an honor to become a fraction of my power.

It can't be worse than the bait-and-switch that was Prometheus.

I believe I was correct in my claim. This installation of the franchise far surpasses Prometheus in just about every aspect. While Prometheus was a more "thoughtful" journey, this was a more straightforward action sci-fi flick similar to Aliens. I was engaged for most of the film, whereas with Prometheus I was wondering when something interesting would ever happen, which nothing did until the last ten or so minutes. I wasn't looking forward to the sequel to Prometheus (in that I didn't care about the Engineers or any of that bulls***), but I am interested to see what happens after this one.

On March 3, 2017, it was reported that the sequel to Alien: Covenant had already been written and would be ready to film in 2018, dependant on the success of the first film.[11] Later the same month, in an interview with Fandango, Scott appeared to accidentally reveal that the title of the next film would be Alien: Awakening and also seemed to suggest that it would be a prequel set between Prometheus and Covenant.[35] Scott went on to state that there would be at least three further films, assuming the two movies were successful.[35]

Hot damn. This franchise is going to get milked for all its worth.

Prometheus was far more ambitions than Covenant was, but just didn't back up any of the ambition. Beyond some basic symbolism it went nowhere with a plot that had so much potential. Plus Prometheus has some of the dumbest written characters I've ever seen.

Covenant is definitely better, but if you look at it as a sequel to Promethtus it's very underwhelming. But I get that since so many people hated Prometheus. Don't get me wrong, loved it as an Imax experience, but was still quite disappointed with a lot of aspects of it.

As long as they don't make another movie with Ripley in it, I don't really care. This sequel franchise is already destined for mediocrity. Not absolutely terrible, but not in any ways great either.

Greetings. I will be your waifu this season.

Just watched the film.

I liked it but I didn't love it. Why are scientists so damn stupid?

Here's this signal let's rush there RIGHT NOW because it's urgent for some reason.
Set up a base camp, establish what the environment is like, the flora, the fauna or lack thereof? f*** that noise, guns will do.
