Alien: Romulus (Fede Alvarez, August 16th, 2024) Movie • Page 26

just gotta be okay forfetting all right to sue Disney when they kill your wife

 

Sidenote, we got the trailer for Mufasa (lol) and I haven't seen the first live-action Lion King but boy did it look not good to me, visually or otherwise

 

it sucks that’s what Berry Jenkins was working on

 

i think someone posted it here, but there's that one tweet where someone predicted that absolutely nobody would see Mufasa and it would still end up being the 6th highest grossing film of all time. just wholly uninteresting and unnecessary.

 

i will say one of the only pros i'm gonna give Disney at this current point in time is that both Romulus and Deadpool had maybe only 2 or 3 trailers play before the film started, whereas every other movie i've seen this summer has had anywhere from 5-6 (and when i saw MaXXXine at an AMC, there were like 9 or 10). if having that much power in the film industry is what it takes to limit the trailer run to only two of your own (disappointing-looking) upcoming movies, i'll take that over having the movie start much much later any day.

 

I think it’s up to the theater. I had 6+ before each of those movies.

 

I have 5-6 playing in front of my showing so it may be local to you lol

 

well damn, guess i'm lucky

 

I’ve noticed at my Cinemark the more crowded/prime time shows have more trailers. If I catch a 11:30 AM show during the week if I have a day off it’s 2-3 trailers.

 

Going again this afternoon because why not

 

Haven't been to the movies in a long time. Saw this at the Alamo with their super sound system or whatever and was completley immersed from the first few space shots. This movie was gorgeous. All the set design work and the wide shots of space were great. Liked the stakes being tied to the company's exploitation. Felt like the tension was everpresent. Loved this and don't even have flaws I could name. The ending weird twist thing was greattt.

 

flip covenant and prometheus and i agree

 

Haven’t seen either of the A v P movies but I think 3 is my least favorite of the Alien movies I’ve seen.

 

Just remembered, I did think it was weird the alien caught her falling in the elevator shaft.

 

I haven't seen Alien 3 or resurrection, but I agree with that list if it swapped prometheus with covenant and Aliens with Romulus.

1) Alien
2) Romulus
3) Aliens
4) Covenant
5) Prometheus
6) AVP
7) AVPR

 

Romulus above aliens???

right to jail

 

Alien and Aliens should be everyone’s top 2. Doesn’t matter the order but they are top 2.

 

This is guy who played the Offspring in case anyone doesn't know

 

Absolutely. If it wasn't for the last 10 minutes I might even put Romulus over the original.

 

Also thought this was strange

 

Insane behavior. It's been out for one day!

 

this didn’t bother me as much as the brother basically dying off screen, a xenomorph grabs him but we don’t actually see him die do we? I thought he was going to come back at the end.
