ChrisAlien Earth Season 2 NewsAlien: Earth timeline confusion: Noah Hawley talks connecting the series to ALIENS as well!
He can say that but he's still disregarded Prometheus and Covenant. No denying that really. There's an interview where he says the only movies that are canon to his series are Alien and to a major degree Aliens. At most those two matter to him

I know, it really annoys me that show creators or even new film directors can come in and just disregard the canon chronology that's been established. It's just laziness, in my opinion. Stories don't matter as much if they just change on a whim based on someone else's opinion. There's plenty of room creatively to build in the Alien sandbox without erasing valuable lore in the process. Just makes things messy for no reason.

I feel this episode a little bit dragged during the first half, but the second half is getting much better. The sheep is really the G.O.A.T. lol.

SvanyaAlien: Earth ForumEpisode 6 – The Fly Spoiler Discussion

I wanted to love this series so much, but i'm honestly just not super excited about it anymore. It's ok but it's nothing special, imo. Wendy talking to the xeno was stupid, it's been done in the comics and should have stayed there. I'll finish the series and fully judge then, but I enjoyed Fargo and Legion much more than this.

 

I pretty much only like Kirsh and Morrow at this point, but Kirsh turning out to be a villain is sorta boring, the hostile to humanity synth has already been done to perfection by Fassbender (and to a certain extent Hauer), it feels a bit tired going down that route again. A synth that has disdain for humanity just doesn't work for me, they're machines at the end of the day, David was a unique situation. The reason Aliens, Romulus, Isolation and other media in the franchise is so loved is because the Synths in those stories were so lovable and pure of heart. I can't believe a Predator (Badlands) movie will probably have Synths I care about more than the ones in an Alien series....

 

Speaking of Synths, I am sure Atom Eins is one, this is the most obvious foreshadowing ever.

 

Side note, I better see that mf plant creature do something, it's the one I was always the most interested in, lol.

Episode 6: The FartAs if the series' couldn't get any worse it digs itself through rock bottom. Wendy (who has one more expression than a bird nesting box) worrying about the xenos and their emotions (when she mentions how they'd "feel" being captured as if it was ever important in the franchise) is about as shockingly stupid as it could possibly get. This show doesn't do the franchise any favors except spitting acid in its face just like Disney did with Star Wars. The most terrifying space monster in cinema history is reduced to a confused gender affirmed animal we're supposed to feel sympathy for.Two episodes left, I don't know if I can do this anymore.Looking forward to Aliens Rogue Incursion Evolved Edition so I can wash away the puke taste in my mouth. I might do a review of in in the games forum.

Agree with neomorph. When they show Wendy/Marcy making clicking sounds at the "baby alien", close up and endlessly, I want to throw something at my TV. It's long, drawn out, and boring. I hope the monsters put all of them out of their misery, except the boy genius and Kirsh. Then start over in season 2 with the monsters trying to take over earth.

I hope Kirsh assumed the Xeno was a male based on the creature's phallus-shaped head. I was wondering what was going to happen with Nibs since she was clearly traumatised from what she saw in the USCSS Maginot wreckage, thinking she might eventually snap. But they erased her memory, and it's all goodie now. The flying insects look cool tho. The eyeball thing, Ocellus is plotting something. Hopefully, all the creatures break containment and wreak havoc.

I don't know yet. I'll wait until the season is over to share my opinion. I will say both have their pluses and negatives. The negatives are enough to put both at the back end of my ranking

A lot of Disney era content like books comics and games seemingly ignore Alien 3 and Resurrection but I honestly don't think they'll do Ripley. They would have likely started with a Ripley movie before Romulus if they wanted to use her. Blomkamp's 5 is as close as they were likely to get when it comes to bringing Ripley back. That ship has sailed.

I already commented on that boring, never ending scene with Wendy, who is now Marcy again, where she made stupid mouth sounds at the creature that seem to go on forever. Writers please.

I wouldn't be surprised maybe like after 10 years where AI is phenomenally advanced and we may see a very believable Ripley comeback or make a cameo.

Not talking about the show. I mean your complaints that nothing makes sense or it's really repetitive. I believe you're more of a casual fan that likes two maybe three movies

Agreed, bringing her back would be like when they brought Mark Hamill as Luke Skywalker in the prequel trilogy and totally eroded so much of his character's aura. Seems to be the Disney trend though to try and capitalize on our nostalgic attachments to these characters. I'm all for creating new stories and introducing new characters.

Actually it is. Been a fan since Alien. Enjoy science fiction. Maybe the show is just in it's infancy and needs development.

Showing ones feet to a Japanese person is disrespectful and insulting. That is why the boy genius did it with such pleasure on his face. No, I am not Japanese and if I am wrong, please correct me. Wendy, suddenly isn't Wendy? Now, she's Marcy? Hope they rid the series of all of them for season 2. They were a seque and now on to season 2 and hopefully better episodes.

Episode 6 was not as exciting as the previous one but it did open doors (literally) for a lot of bad things to happen in the near future.   Talk about a bad day!  Poor Arthur Sylvia  - first his wife doesn't back him up on the morality of wiping Nib's memory, then he gets fired, then he leaves the fly's door open, and then he gets facehugged.  Can't get much worse.   I do have some questions that I hope to see addressed in the future.  At the arbitration meeting between Prodigy and Weyland -Yutani why didn't  Ms. Yutani raise the issue of the sabotage of the Maginot by Boy?  Did Morrow not tell her about that, or is she saving that issue for another day?  That certainly would have had an impact on the outcome of the arbitration as Boy could no longer play the innocent "victim".    Another issue which probably underlies the whole show is whether or not the Hybrids really are "human" or is this really just a "Total Recall" type memory transfer situation?  Wendy aka Marcy seems to be questioning whether she is really human and maybe pondering if she wants to be human.   It seems Wendy is identifying more with the creatures than with people which calls into question the rationale of the hybrid experiment.     To me the whole point would be to transfer whatever it is that makes you uniquely you into a better body.   I guess I'm talking about the transferring soul and not just the mind, but maybe they only can transfer the memories.  Would you really want to live forever as something other than human?  It seems to me that this whole Prodigy project is going south fast and I believe the cover story is going to be that the hybrids went crazy and killed everyone and that will be the end of Prodigy.

Ripley is done, I have no interest in seeing her or anyone related to her in any upcoming Alien-thing ever. She was good in the first 3, Alien 4 is bad, time to move on.

No... ? I think you're talking about the cocoon in Romulus maybe? There hasn't been anything like that in any other alien movies so far.

There was one movie that had something similar in it. It just didn't have the sack. They just showed the "arm". I don't want to watch them again but if I get the chance, I will watch Romulus again. The only one I watch over and over is Aliens and it wasn't in that.

Kirsh: Sort of like Al Capone's right hand man, Frank Nitti, sabotaging him.

Male Xenomorph: Always thought they were male with only the queen being female.

The Fly: I think they are just like flies. They cough up something to dissolve their meal and then sip the liquid through a straw like thing on their face. I don't think it's acid like the xenomorph. Are the writers passing this off as their creation?

Juvenile xenomorph: Wasn't there one who the captain shot in Covenant and then he "birthed" one and David was playing with it?

Wendy: Don't like the Wendy character and wish they would get rid of those characters and just focus on everything else now that Earth has been invaded.

I, too, don't think a tamed xenomorph will sit well with the fanbase.

ChrisAlien: Earth ForumHonest first impressions of Alien: Earth
It is an enjoyable show, but don't like some of the stuff they are messing with in the lore, like how can the android communicate with the Alien ? I bet they go down the road that the Alien is just misunderstood and not that bad after all.Like they did with Orcs in rings of power.

This unfortunately seems more and more plausible after watching Episode 6.

First time in Alien history that a Xenomorph was referred to as an "adult male"... Kirsh refers to the Xenomorph Wendy killed as an adult male... interesting.This episode was very boring. The only time I jumped was when they showed the monsters.

Always thought they, with the exception of the queen, were male.

[First time in Alien history that a Xenomorph was referred to as an "adult male"... Kirsh refers to the Xenomorph Wendy killed as an adult male... interesting.]​Well of course almost every alien we saw in Alien franchise was an male.We know how the female looks like aka the Queen 👀

I mean yes we've always assumed and referred to them as Drones or Warriors, assuming the Hive/ Queen hierarchy, but technically nobody in the films had ever made that distinction, only the Queen was given any kind of gender acknowledgement.
