Alien Covenant is out on Blue Ray

Why haven't you picked up your copy user?

Horseshit movie.
That's why.

Can't reward tearing apart what was once a quality franchise

I downloaded a blu-ray rip instead. I think I'll watch it tonight.

/thread

Because I don't have a BD player.

>quality franchise
>alien 3
>alien resurrection
>all the AvP movies
>tearing apart anything
you should try being less autistic

I gave it another chance. Don't even consider resurrection or any of the AVPs alien movies. With Prometheus and Covenant they tried to go back to the old style and fucked that up

Everybody knows that Ridley Scott is a hack and only good film in the series is ALIENS.

The rest is pleb tier garbage.

ah yes, thee ol'moving the goal posts response.

>neutrinos bust having any affect on matter

scott decided on cg instead of practicals which were built and ready to be used

because its another 2k upscale on a 4k disc
what the fuck?

>Bluray
I only watch YiFy rips, bro

Looks like you only post trannies too.

I was wondering where I recognised her, it's Inherent Vice. I should really rewatch that.

I already got my UHD Blu-Ray copy.

if you watch that tested video and how shitty the practical suits were, it was the right choice

doesn't change her face

so she only looks good when her tits are out?

but whyyyy??

honestly though, im debating whether to buy it or hold out for some re-release with higher res copy

apparently it was filmed in 3.5k (?)
not sure what that means

it's qt

it's really not.

Because I have a UHD TV and all that stuff. The only reason why I have the gear is because I was curious and it was cheap (fell off the back of the truck kind of deal)...also 4K TVs have pro-level scalers built in....my Laserdiscs look pretty sharp on them. But to be fair, stick with 1080p till 8K becomes a thing.

3.5k is like 900p, it's a non standard resolution that nobody uses.

>3.5k is like 900p
um....

why did the ship not use nuclear power? even the technology for fission today is so well studied and understood we can build tiny reactors that can power nuclear submarines and aircraft carriers, for decades, without needing refueling. they are amazing. the tech is already highly developed.

it doesn't make sense. solar power is incredibly inefficient compared to nuclear. the only reason we don't have nuclear plants everywhere is because the initial build costs are still really high and all the dumb ass left-wing tree hugging faggot hipsters. those retards think nuclear bombs and nuclear reactors are the same thing because they both contain the word nuclear (and because they watch too much nolan movies).

8k wont even matter for home viewing, you would have to be sitting an inch away from most decent sized screens to see all the detail

actually my impression was that the left wing wanted more nuclear instead of coal plants
and that the right were getting their panties in a bunch over "dangerous nuclear plants" and worries over terrorist use of radioactive waste
trump's the one touting the importance of coal

I'm about to rent it on demand
is it at least entertaining even if all the alien origin stuff is stupid?

Piece of shit film for idiots that pretends to be intelligent but is really just an overrated, over-produced B-Movie. Also it fucking ruins the whole backstory by explaining too much and not only that it fucks up the Alien's origins.

another reminder that the new blade runner will be complete shit

the action was good, its def entertaining. it slows down in the middle and the whole david situation gets a little bland, but worth watching

gonna pirate it and watch on second monitor while working on porn webms and browsing /tv.

you can thank Jane Fonda for The China Syndrome which pretty much scared everyone away from Nuclear plants, though it is a legitimately good movie thanks to Jack Lemmon

>solar power is incredibly inefficient
When it has to go through an atmosphere

Barring freak accidents, solar doesn't require maintenance, they'd have had to bring multiple nuclear engineers on the mission if they wanted to power it with a reactor. And why would they? The ship was only designed to make 1 journey, putting a nuclear reactor aboard makes scuttling it a lot harder, which they probably intended to do once everyone and everything was unloaded.

>bring multiple nuclear engineers
just have robots do it while everyone else is in cryosleep and then you have a reliable energy source on the new planet

Sounds like a good way to spend the day desu senpai.

it absolutely is

The only truly great Alien movie was the original
The rest vary from okay to absolute fetid trash

Buying that 4k hdr shit and bookmarking the scene where Fassbender kisses himself. Gon have a good fap tonight, i tell you hwhat

The director's cut of Alien 3 is on a par with the original for me, it's the only one that managed to recreate the hopelessness of the situation and sense of danger from the Xeno. Aliens, Resurrection and even Covenant really downgraded the Xenos into "slightly dangerous monster" instead of Cosmic Horror that demands sacrifices to defeat.

Too much filler, too little alien action.

The two gay robots playing the flute was the worst scene in the entire franchise.

>Unironically preferring Aliens to Alien
>Thinking a James Cameron film is good

You uncultured swine, that scene was about... uhh, David teaching a fellow android how to learn on his own and not be a slave to humans... i think

it's not a directors cut, Fincher had no influence on any cut of the movie, that's why it is called the Assembly cut

>note to self, flutes seem to turn robots gay

A daily reminder that anyone hating on Aliens is either a millennial hipster faggot trying to sound cool and edgy or a deep in denial Ridley fag who can't admit their favorite commercial director is senile and ruining the franchise with his shit ideas.

It was David testing Walter to see if he was worth keeping while he killed the rest of the crew, which he wasn't:

"You're such a disappointment to me"

Aliens is a terrible horror movie and only an okay sci-fi action movie, if it's your favourite it's because you aren't an Alien fan. Also, Aliens isn't canon anymore, deal with it.

>hating a movie that featured the line "Game over, man! Game over!"

One of my favorite parts was when David was playing the Prometheus theme on his flute.

>a movie never intended to be a horror movie is a shit horror movie

Oh btw FOX just told Scott to fuck off:

collider.com/alien-covenant-2-status-fox-ridley-scott/

Nowhere in that article does it say that

>Oldfag mad at the millennial master race
Typical

>Aliens isn't canon anymore
what makes you say that?

>Waaaaah anyone who doesn't like my shit movie is just a millennial hipster!
Fuck off, cameron.

Less than 3 months after theatrical release, isn't that a bit short?

...

The eggs were created by David, not birthed by a female Xeno. David also mentions that the hybrids created by the goo have a limited lifespan which suggests an inability to reproduce (which you'd want from a bioweapon designed to clear out a planet).

that's the thing though, as it stands, it would also make alien not canon, which wouldn't make sense. Either way, I don't think David created the xenos and he won't become their creator. I think he just recreated what they had been doing all along (as per the mural in prometheus that has the eggs and face huggers and xeno) only he just had the ingredients and no recipe.

what would be David's reaction if all this time he thought he created the perfect organism only to go to another planet and find out that the xenomorph had already been created by the Engineers and not only that, but they did it better?

we may never know. I hope they let him wrap this shit up.

I already saw it in theater

Should also be mentioned that the Derelict in ALIEN had crashed on LV-426 already and the Company knew of the transmission. This can be found in the Weyland Notes on the Prometheus BluRay

could you please, PLEASE tell me her name?
pliz?

yeah, they mention in the movie that the space jockey was fossilized and been there already for a long ass time.

maria rya

also currently trying to decide in which quality I should illegally download Alien, 720p or 1080p?

decisions decisions...

I have.

Sup Forums was wrong again. I don't know what you guys expect. Maybe the 12 year olds are just more vocal.

:^\

>maria rya
thanks

Unless you have a 720p monitor, you should DL it in 1080p.

literally 0 ass

I only download shitty movies in 720p when the resolution doesn't really matter.
and Alien is kinda a shit movie but visuals are kinda alright, so maybe I should get the 1080p rip...

its literally the perfect amount of ass.

It's most likely going to happen like in a couple of the past movies. Where the Xeno is a sort of grey area "good guy". Possibly against other xenos or the engineers. Seeing that rooting for a human grown Xeno against an alien enemy would only be natural.

If you can see the pie hole without her even bending over, then she's got a weak tush, my friend.

literally perfect bruh

Kek.

I believe that's called a hole in her back.

Practicals were there for lighting when transferring over to cgi, and to give the actors a sense of what they're seeing.
But they are not great. Just as lighting was used to conceal how cheap and shitty the suits really were in Alien/Aliens.

In a movie like this, never again will it be full practical or fully CGI.

>how cheap and shitty the suits really were in Alien/Aliens.
Fuck off, the suits look amazing even without the lighting.

Shut the fuck up. The tail constantly broke, and they went even cheaper in ALIENS due to needing multiple.
The original biomechanical design is forever perfect but it is true that the suits looked and performed like shit in action.

But how do they look like shit?

You're so slow user
Alien.Covenant.2017.1080p.BluRay.H264.AAC-RARBG.mp4

Nigger, the suits looked like shit because of shit quality. Have you even seen the suits outside of the movie and a few photo stills.

What happened to using practical effect? this entire movie was shit

>Have you even seen the suits outside of the movie and a few photo stills.
No, could you post some images where the suit looks like shit?

Its comfier for the director to make a CGI movie.
that way he can sit and drink coffee

it takes as much effort to have an art department make practical effects. He's literally not going ot get his hands dirty making them himself.

Tested on youtube just put out a video on the xeno suit they used for this movie. This is with almost 40 years of technical advancements and it still looks like shit.

I have seen the suit for Aliens when they showed it a few years ago in my city and i was so disappointed by how it looked like shit.
There was even a facehugger on the floor .
It was still nice seeing something real from a movie.

I want pictures, faggot.

She's ugly, but at the same time she's cute, you see.

>it takes as much effort to have an art department make practical effects. He's literally not going ot get his hands dirty making them himself.
Film was dog shit anyway, scott is a hack.

then use google you stupid faggot

Post pics or you're wrong.

fine, am i right now?

Yeah it's shoddy but still it's an iconic design.
The other retard doesn't understand the suits themselves looked bad and lighting made them visibly better. It's not knocking on the design or look, but the actual quality itself. It's why the creature did very little physically in the first.

here's a better one

>the alien in full light is now the cover of the franchise

Why the fuck couldn't they just keep it a secret?

That's not the alien.

Bitch did you even see ANY of the movies? That's the fucking xenomorph

Not him but thats the alien, retard.
