Predict Alien:Covenant Rotten Tomatoe and IMDB score

I know, that's why I said generally

Yep I got ya

@Neomorph

Looks like both of us are being pleasantly optimistic about this movie haha. I have a feeling its gonna pull a Rogue One/Force Awakens, some of the old fan base won't like it but casual moviegoers and alien fans will (and plenty of the fan base, just maybe not the old school guys". Do you think it'll get better reception than Prometheus?

I would say about 70-75% on RT and probably a 7 on IMDB

salomonj that's not a bad comparison at all because those SW films are more or less made to:

a) please fans (and they are great fan service films no doubt) 

b) make up for the disappointment many fans felt with ep. I-III (just like AC is a possible "fan compensation" for fans who disliked Prometheus) 

c) keep the franchise (and all the merchandise) alive

As for the reception, I think it will be higher with better reviews than Prometheus, with my speculation solely being based on the new writers providing a better script, despite that we don't anything yet. It's just a guess.  

hoping most of the guesses here are on target. the trailer makes the movie look pretty awesome. i'm thinking at least gets a 7 on imdb

Rotten Tomatoes: 35%

IMDB: 4.

Look, the trailer was so underwhelming, some of our ilk decided to recut it. Does not bode well. I'm planning for the worst so I can be pleasantly surprised by the best.

That is very difficult to predict. It probably depends on how many that post reviews, what they are into, if they mostly care about Alien or Prometheus and so on.

A lot of times critics give boring movies high scores and interesting movies bad scores. I know this because I have read reviews of movies that when described seem like shit but the writer seems to find some deep stuff in it when the movie seems to lack pace or might have a boring topic (I usually get bored by slow movies/movies that lack action no matter how interesting the topic is).

Suwhited: Boring love stories tend to get high ranking with critics but these kind of movies suck IMO.

Dr Curt Connors: I haven’t watched Nolan movie after that shit that was The Dark Knight Rises (reactionary crap) Fuck TDKR

I try to keep my expectations low after what became of Prometheus.

The Dark Knight Rises is amazing, my favorite movie of all time! It's okay that you don't like it, I don't care what your opinion of it is. You must not know much about Batman if you don't like it but it's cool everyone is entitled to their opinion.

"Rotten Tomatoes: 35%

IMDB: 4."

..And I thought I was rough...Even movies like "Split" get better than that..

While I absolutely loved every split second of the AC trailer, we should all keep in mind the AC could receive unfavourable reviews.

The most important thing is how you rate the film of course. Whether it's more Prometheus or Alien, in between or something new and fresh. I'm hoping for the latter.

Some critics tend to dislike excessive violence so that's one aspect that could affect the general score. Others are the story, and if they get it right this time I can see a lot of potential praise greater than the not-so-critically-acclaimed Prometheus. A good story and established characters are extremely important.
