They're clearly going back to their Alien and somewhat Aliens roots, so more of the same, and that's fine as it still looks like a decent scifi horror flick.
Not a huge fan of the new xeno design PL posted a pick of on the last page. Looks too much like a xeno/Venom crossbreed. They nailed the look of the xeno early on, no need to change it now.
Unless that xeno isn't a xeno that busted out of a human?
I got tickets for this because a friend wanted to go see it together. IMAX.
I've looked into it a bit more and the director does seem to be taking a good approach, so I'll maintain some cautious optimism even though it seems it's going to take nearly a goddamn miracle to bring the series back from the dead after the last entry (I think the director even WINK-WINKED diplomatically that Covenant is terrible).
I'm keeping my hype level low, but there does seem to be some decent buzz...
I did hear a little more of the premise and I like it. Something about them trying to scavage an abandoned space station. Sounds good, simple, and creepy. I like it.
Yeah that. I was thinking it was another rehash of the settlers moving to another planet stuck on a ship or deep space crew encounter abandoned ship type story.
