Woah. Fucking hell, shucks!

So I really shouldn’t go and see this? Grand, saves me a few quid.

shucks · 2017-05-27T10:25:57.620Z

Exactly. I don’t think it told us anything new, just created more pointless crap plotholes and was painfully stupid. Just…AAAARRRRRGGGGGHHHHHHHH!!!

i wanted to walk at the ‘looking into the egg’ bit but there was three friends sitting between me and freedom so i stayed.

really annoyed i didn’t now, would have looked cool as fuck.

shite

My dad shouted “No! Don’t look at it!” in the middle of cinema at that point.

Trying to work out if it’s worse than those AVP films now. I think it might be in the same floating shitpot.

i’d stop at the end of Aliens, i mean i quite like Alien 3 and it’s got an atmosphere about it, but the egg on the Sulaco was absolutely stupid and was a clear ‘we need a sequel, how do we set it up’ betrayal of the timeline.

keep that money out of Ridley’s pocket!

ttf · 2017-05-27T10:41:17.550Z

probably the best alien film

Just succumbed to this because I am bored on a Bank Holiday Sunday.

It’s not good at all and makes no sense even in the cinema.

The worst crime is that it has absolutely no suspense. Spent most of the movie yawning.

Gonna go see it tomorrow, finally. So we’re watching Prometheus again… NOW. #prayfor29

shucks · 2017-06-01T22:09:16.948Z

Don’t, please don’t.

anon67149139 · 2017-06-01T22:09:21.085Z

“I think they want us to come and find them”

The precise moment this all goes to fucking shit. About 8 minutes gone. FFS. Already getting angry.

japes · 2017-06-01T22:13:47.701Z

why would you do this

saps · 2017-06-02T08:55:51.218Z

No, I liked it. Mostly because it’s so much better than Prometheus but also because for at least the first half it’s really entertaining. Tails off dramatically in the final third but still manages not to be entirely awful.

Yup: Alien, Aliens and Alien: Resurrection (I know you mean this one because that’s the French one)

Kallgeese · 2017-06-02T09:25:27.965Z

Oh Theo.

1101010 · 2017-06-02T09:28:49.737Z

I’m not actually joking. Those are actually the three entertaining ones.

Edit: ACTUALLY

Kallgeese · 2017-06-02T10:43:43.326Z

Alien 3 is actually really good! I can see what they were trying to do with Resurrection but it’s still complete toss.

no-class · 2017-06-02T10:47:21.804Z

i don’t think i’ll ever accept it as a legitimate sequel (as i said earlier, the ‘there’s an egg on the Sulaco’ thing makes no sense on any level other than that the whole film is just a nightmare that Ripley is having in hypersleep)

but this is the best article i think i’ve read on Alien 3, really insightful http://reflectionsonfilmandtelevision.blogspot.ie/2015/03/dont-be-afraid-im-part-of-family-how.html
