Hm...
Looks like they're going to try to trip us up as to where we think this series is going...
Engineers did NOT create Humanity or the Xenomorph...
...which doesn't really make sense, since they already implied in Prometheus that the Engineers did lay the seeds for humanity. So I'm confused already...
"So we've reinvented the idea of Alien, I think, which is that Covenant gets us a step closer to who and why was this thing designed to make human beings. And if you think it's them [the Engineers], you're dead wrong."- Ridley Scott

It should be a hell of a lot more interesting than reviving Ripley for the umpteenth time.

I also think that this script has been re-written so many times, even Ridley is confused on which version he finally settled on.
Sad, but probably true. 🙁
They could be over complicating things just for the sake of having a bunch more sequels. Let's hope not.
There is supposed to be some "Walter" featurette released tomorrow. Here is the teaser...
Shit another teaser, but the full thing isn't up yet..
It's nicely done. I was expecting a little more than a music video, though.
The fine print at the bottom is great...

Yeah I know. But seeing this gives me the creeps. The way Walter was made seems more ritualistic instead of scientific. It makes me wonder if this is a foreshadowing of what to expect in Alien Covenant. The music also helps set up the creepy and disturbing vibe. It makes me wonder if we should be afraid of the Xenos or the Synthetics themselves? Also, I should have scrolled down in the comment section. Fox is really promoting this movie. First the MU/TH/UR computer, and now this
Meet Walter site!
I'm still kind of hoping for a viral marketing video as good as Guy Pearce's (Weyland's) TED talk for Prometheus. That thing is amazing...
Meet Walter is similar to the David 8 video for Prometheus after all...
Pretty cool analysis of the David and Walter videos...

Then he sent a shockwave of geek out exhilaration through the room as the visionary sci-fi helmer added, “I enjoy doing them so much, honestly, I would like it to go on forever.”
