@@TheRealSkeletor do you need a new prescription of glasses? I explicitly wrote "if roman numerals worked like that" just in case someone persnickety like you tried to pointlessly argue about the practical realism of a fricking 2-cent joke.
Can't believe it's been 10 years already. Romulus was clearly inspired by Isolation, and I'm glad the success of this movie has finally convinced Sega to greenlight a sequel.
When I saw "Ash" in the shadows first I nudged my brother and was like: "So well done. You can totally see it's him, but they didn't do the aweful CGI like in other movies." 5 minutes later: "WHY!?"
I think they messed up and locked the deepfake onto the incorrect spot on his face, its like the deepfake is locked on the movement of his lower jaw, when it should be locked on his face instead, so it doesn't wobble up and down when he speaks, which makes it extra uncanny. I was also really surprised how its so well done, and at the same time, poorly executed. Its like it's all there, but the positioning and movement locking is screwed up.
Would have been so easy for them to just make an animatronic that looks like Ash. And its robotic movements would have looked convincing since it would have been an actual robot.
The dude who played Andy did a great job! Loved the sibling relationship between him and Raine. Also Kay deserved way better! Seriously that Offspring thing was pure fucking nightmare fuel!
Honestly, I am fine with the additions to lore stuff regarding Prometheus, but the only real thing that is hard for me to swallow is the Nostromo having ANY debris left after the explosion it let out, much less bits that still denote the name of it and Ian Holm's Ash being part of a line of similarly designed robots that seemed to let out absolutely no suspicions to the crew, if that was the case. Though, the latter could make sense with a lot of streching...
Outside of the initial explosion, energy from the explosion would dissipate quickly in a vacuum. The alien having somehow evolved to create a cocoon around itself seemed like a bigger stretch.
There's different directions they could have gone to fill in the gap between the first & second movies but this remix just didn't work for me either. A movie about the doomed colony in Aliens would have been fun & fit in with the established lore & they still could've had survivors that the company just didn't know about. Of course, then they wouldn't have any reason to include a dead actor or the humanomorph hybrid.
That made no sense. Also Weyland had no knowledge of what happened to The Nostromo but there was a station belonging to them that knew exactly what happened including how Ripley defeated the Alien. For Prometheus and Covenant ruined the mystery of the Xenomorph.
Why would the crew of the research station be suspicious of the Ian Holm line of robots? He followed company orders to the letter in the original Alien movie. Even if they disagree with his methods they've probably only been appraised of the alien's biology and not certain specifics about what happened on the Nostromo.
7:12 I hadn't noticed they show the skull of the xenomorph, with eyes sockets, quite human-like. That's how Giger designed it. In Covenant they showed their POV, showing they work on "regular" vision like most animals.
If I remember correctly the original Alien costume had the human like skull in it, but it often fogged up so you could barely see it in only a few fleeting moments in the movie.
Everyone compares it to past Alien movies, but when I saw it I mostly saw similarities to the director's earlier "Don't Breathe": both are about a group of young people who are breaking in somewhere to steal from it, are stealing to get away from a terrible current life and end up locked inside with a villain who is blind and finds them by sound. It also had a side of pregnancy horror, which Alien Romulus really dialed up a few notches
"Come work for Weyland-Yutani!" "And he made a solemn vow to never speak legibly again." "Movr over Sigourney. This final girl is the actress who bought all the vowels." Hilarious pronunciation of Cailee Spaeny. So much gold here.

My big question after watching this: how in the hell did it take over 40 years for someone to think of giving the xenos a cocoon phase? It just makes so much sense. Edit: To clarify, I mean a cocoon in between the chestburster and full-sized xeno phases.
The Cocoon is more like a suspended state instead of a phase, Rook said that the cocoon was formed once the xenomorph did not have any air, food or water.
This film was awesome and a great return to formula for the alien franchise to being actually terrifying, there are a few jump scares but they earn every single one. I also appreciated that they give proper respect and time to the face huggers, instead of just relying on the xenomore.
Yeah, but the negative side to that apart the pistons having a clean shot to the finals, the season wouldn't be fun anymore because teams start forfeiting because they are scared to play around in the court with a xeno human hybrid whatever the name hoping they dont get their heads mauled off.

in your best horror movie voice, please say "The greatest threat to the human race, is neither man, beast, machine, nor alien... It is in fact....DOORS"
Seriously… the face huggers were terrifying. They just woke up from cryosleep and they’re already fast and strong enough to attack like that.. we’re used to seeing them creep around like ambush predators so it’s terrifying seeing them all out sprint after prey when there’s competition. It makes sense, whenever they’re alone they take their time to carefully attack their prey, but when there’s a bunch of them they just sprint and leap wildly trying to be the first to lay their egg. I know some people complained they seemed dumb but they did set up that cryosleep makes you lethargic and sick for a day or so like a “bad hangover” so that’s why most of them survived the first encounters. If those were fully awake and healthy, those people would have been walking eggsacs. I also liked how this movie showed us the middle stage between larval and “adult” drone, and although it seemed fast the Xenomorph reproduction cycle has always been shown to adapt to the situation. If the host is calm and the situation is safe, they take their time to pupate and burst out with strength. In Romulus the alien was clearly premature, it took several tries to burst through her chest and then it was exhausted and just sat there in her chest cavity recovering for a while before it scampered off to make it’s chrysalis. So we see that they really are the perfect organism because they can adapt to nearly any situation, survive premature birth, attacks in its chrysalis stage, the vacuum of space… etc. in my opinion this movie made the aliens genuinely terrifying again because it showed how unstoppable they are, how adaptable they are, and how quickly it can get out of control if they land on a planet. They also create abominations that give us nightmares… ew.

*I haven't seen one of these since the 20th century. The most fascinating, amusing, entertaining part is that they **_keep making them._** You'd figure that cash cow must be pretty sore by now!*
I liked this movie, it actually had young actors who were decent. (A shame this is a big deal for this day and age). The guy who played the 'artificial person' was really good, it's not an easy role to play. Story was somewhat a mish-mash of prior movies, but there are only so many things you can do with Aliens now. But yeah, THE DOORS !!! Wtf, it seems we are all doomed to an apocalypse of death and starvation if the power ever goes out in the future, because of DOORS !!!
Even if you took the absolute best parts of the first half, what did it add to the franchise, the story/lore/canon? It's just a useless bookmark in between the two greats, Alien and Aliens.

Please do the Night at the Museum films soon!
Very funny honest trailer of Alien: Romulus. 😂
Since you mentioned that the offspring looks like Michael Rapaport, I can’t un see it! 😂😂
Please say: "Gary did not want to see it again".
that windows sound effect is why you guys are the best
*I haven't seen one of these since the 20th century. The most fascinating, amusing, entertaining part is that they **_keep making them._** You'd figure that cash cow must be pretty sore by now!*
The Amazon x SpaceX merger joke is perfect.
5:55 ah I get it, we’re the punchline
Movie was so good, good video! Say "The Scary synths are coming..."
Missed joke with "Lethal company" throwback
So many good jokes on this one to choose one. 🤣
Ok, damn doors!
Okay, that line "light fingering" that just sounded weird... 🤣
Call back to Alien Covenant.
"I'll do the fingering."
Well, that was the point.
Part with doors is just hilarious
Irony at 3:28 from the channel known for mocking typos in comments. No one does "speak legibly" because "legible" means "readable." 😂
Oh man, the Facehugger and Tentacle action was ON POINT in this movie, and i definitely discovered some things about myself
Imagine if one catches the Wrongs Lips 😺 😂 what in Hentai 😂
The Michael Rappaport bit was chefs kiss
"Alien I I I I I I I, I mean, Romulus"
I swear, the stupidest jokes get me the most 😂
I liked this movie, it actually had young actors who were decent. (A shame this is a big deal for this day and age).
The guy who played the 'artificial person' was really good, it's not an easy role to play.
Story was somewhat a mish-mash of prior movies, but there are only so many things you can do with Aliens now.
But yeah, THE DOORS !!! Wtf, it seems we are all doomed to an apocalypse of death and starvation if the power ever goes out in the future, because of DOORS !!!
I can't overstate how much I loved the first half. I couldn't understand why some people hated it. Then the second half happened and I understood.
Yeah , its not really rewatchable.
Even if you took the absolute best parts of the first half, what did it add to the franchise, the story/lore/canon? It's just a useless bookmark in between the two greats, Alien and Aliens.
That 'you wot mate?!' was so unexpected 😂😂
Time for the most anticipated musical of the year, Joker 2.
Better than the actual movie
Romulus was good you hater
