Io9 really liked this. So now I don’t know what to believe.

Whelp. Now I’m crying.

So much a better than what we got.

Chopper is a murderous psychopath.

I hate RoS with a burning passion, but:

But in the novels - didn’t HE kill Quess accidentally? Not Chan, who he then murdered (whoops) in the movie.

“Whether or not Singh also remained seated alongside Senators Amidala and Organa during Palpatine’s ascent to unlimited power isn’t broached in this episode, but it’s clear from the jump that he’s finally having some doubts about this whole “democracy’s terrifying degradation into totalitarianism” thing.”

If Raxus…

You’d think being hardened to stun shots would be the first thing you’d want out of armor. Like, Leia in her princess dress , sure. But fully armored troopers?

Except Aliens was action/horror. Different rules. And dying in the prologue is still bullshit. I will die on this hill. Years. I’ve spent years reflexively denying the existence of this movie.

If Covenant is the end, then that’s HORRIBLE. That ending is a huge downer. Just absurd. It could be redeemed if the sequel works, but that’s unknown for now. (Though given what he did to Noomi Rapace’s character I don’t have much hope.)

Probably, but I don’t hate Resurrection the way I hate the (not real)Alien 3.

There’s no fixing what they did to Hicks, Newt, and Bishop for me.

Naw, there’s no movie called Alien 3.


(I guess I was too subtle this time. This is a bit I have been doing for the better part of a decade. Because it amuses me. And because I hate that movie with a fiery passion)

What are you talking about? There is no movie called Alien 3. The third movie in the franchise was Alien Ressurection.

Next you’re gonna tell me that this mythical movie you’re talking about killed Hicks and Newt immediately and used Bishop as a cameo. But of course that didn’t happen, because that would have been…

I think the only thing I liked about the second AVP was the badass veteran Predator: Wolf. He was cool, his weapons were cool.

David Fincher did an Alien movie? I think I would have remembered that.

Bummed about Blotkamp’s sequel - would have been nice to get a follow up to Aliens for more Ripley adventures, and to see what happened to Hicks and Newt. Tho’ everyone’s too old for it to make sense and I don’t think recasting is the best idea.

The background stuff is that the main Preds in this film are an outcast asshole clan regular ones hate.

“Maeve found herself single at the end of season 2, comforted by her sneaky neighbor who deleted a very telling and potentially life-changing voice message, which will most definitely lead to some hurt feelings and confusion.”

Yeah, this part of the season finale killed me. Ugh.

Even the Moff Gideon thing at the end of s1 served two purposes and not just a fan moment- allowing for a big fan moment with the darksaber, but everyone could be like: oh shit Gideon lived! Some people were like “The darksaber?!” The rest could be like “woah! A new lightsaber?!”

There’s three moments from s2 I would put on that list: Boba Fett in the very end of episode 1. Boba Fett when he puts his armor back on. And Luke. I didn’t feel like they forced it with Ahsoka or Bo-Katan, but that’s jsut my opinion I know.

Arcee, Airazor and Nightbird.
