Alien: Earth (FX) • Page 4

So this show is going to be about what originally spurred Weyland to secretly order Nostromo to capture the Xeno in the original Alien?

 

Gotta be something where this series shows:

1. The Xeno is the apex predator among the handful they find
2. It’s the one they believe they can easily control

Either one is super interesting to me.

 

Same

 

The showrunner said this show will ignore the Alien prequel films (Prometheus and Covenant) and will be parallel to Romulus. I guess it helps it make more sense to be on earth.

Still bummed that it just ignores some of the films.

 

Referring to the two prequels? I wonder if its a case of just not acknowledging those films, or bringing in story elements that contradict what happened in those films.

 

Would definitely prefer the former. As meh as those two may be, I appreciated how Romulus handled the connection.

 

Whoops, forgot Romulus; was referring to Prometheus and Covenant

 

Tomorrow!

 

really bad time for me to not have a new TV yet

 

If you know how to sail the high seas...

 

i have the D+/Hulu bundle, i just need a new TV (got rid of our old one before moving)

 

Do you have a laptop or tablet you could log onto the service with?

 

i do, but i'm not wanting to watch this on a small screen. i'm just gonna have to wait, lol

 

I guess the first two episodes will be up on Hulu at 8PM EST

the great thing about moving back to the central time zone is not having to wait super late for this to air

 

Very excited for this, let’s get phallic

 

Holy shit, I didn’t realize I already had FX on and I turned on my tv and quickly glanced and then had to double take because the actors, their style, some of the actors themselves and the aesthetic of the set looked exactly like Alien, like I thought Alien was on for a second before I realized it wasn’t the right actors lol

 

First episode ruled so hard.

The production design especially in the beginning was *chef's kiss* perfect

The spaceship crash scene was incredibly well done

The alien ticks scared the shit out of me

 

the Xenomorph can eat a few billionaires... as a treat

this fucking rules. best way to break in the new TV

 

Hmm. Thought episode one looked great but not sure how I feel about the story.
