This conversation is inherently enjoyable to us all, because we're thinking about something we're fond of. We're all pretty happy to reminisce on Covenant.
...Given that Covenant is something you hate, would you say this conversation is an unpleasant experience for you? Your obfuscated expletive seems to indicate as much.
... :)
(Covenant is great. :)
No way I'm having a blast ripping this movie, it's always good times. That's just how I talk, I like those words and I'm pretty sure I'm doing it to the accordance of the rules. I could not use the symbols but I was told by some people to do so because bad words hurt people's feelings. Cause everyone on here is 5 I guess and hasn't heard those words ever, haha. Please don't use words like obfuscated those are too big for trolls like me.
Which part of Covenant did you hate the most, Dr. Curt Connors?
Alright Dr. Curt Connors , I don't know if you are typing a response, but I need to sign off for the night.
But, seeing as how you are having a blast, I hope you will think about it. Really think about it. About Covenant, and all the parts that you especially hate.
Really think about that now, ok? Think about it the same way one thinks of a jingle from an advertisement, that one has no particular affinity for yet cannot help singing under his breath.
Remember to think in particular about those parts which you most hate, ok?
Bye. :)
Oh god, where do I start? Hate the most, David, but the scene I hate the most and should have walked out right afterward was the proto/xeno, whatever the hell it is, chest bursting out of Crudup's character and him and David with their arms up and all that ridiculous, cheesy garbage and terrible CGI. But I thought Ridley would make up for everything because I really wanted to like this movie bad, boy was I wrong. I think if he had had Daniels realize and maybe ask a few questions to make sure Walter was Walter and her knowing it was David and taking him out somehow that would have salvaged the movie for me. There still would have been plenty of other stuff I hated and lots of ridiculous stuff in the movie but if she would have taken out David I could have lived with it. But nope everyone is dumb cause when there are two androids who look exactly like each other one wouldn't ask a couple questions to make sure he was really who he was.
Got it preordered in 4K for my OLED...gonna be great! Can't wait for the special features and, eventually, extra cuts!
@VivisectedEngineer...
That was brilliant, my friend---
But, I'm afraid it went right over the good Doctor's head ;).
Nothing went right over my head bucko, haha. I had already posted my answer before I even saw the other comment from Vivisected Engineer and I am not giving it any more thought than that. That was painful enough, let's all jump on the guy who has a different opinion than the Ridley Scott apologists. This movie sucks, Ridley has lost it. I could go through every problem this movie has but you would all come up with some kind of excuse to why nobody asks David what the hell happened to all the engineer people in the city or how a dude gets face hugged for a couple seconds and is then chest bursted later. Or how they wear no helmets or any kind of suit whatsoever on an unknown planet where there could be any number of unknown pathogens. The list goes on and on.
Don't bother commenting back cause I won't be reading any of your comments. So save your breath, I'm nearly bored to death and fading fast. Life is too short to last long. I'm gonna go listen to some Blink and watch good movies!
Isn't it delightful that it went over his head, though? Look how much time and energy he put into dwelling on the memory of something he hates.
And, I couldn't help but feel pleased to learn that at some point he wanted to walk out of the film but continued to sit through it anyway for some reason.
Anyhow, I rather enjoyed reading his comment because it reminded me of a few of my favorite parts of the film. David, for example is my favorite character, and I particularly like the Captain Oram chestburster scene. So that was fun, to be reminded of.
Enjoyable conversation all the way around, I'd say. Too bad Dr. Curt Connors will no longer be participating and further contemplating the object of his hatred, because I for one would really enjoy that.
Also, I think it is fun to learn that Dr. Curt Connors is very confident that faced with similar circumstances, he would make better decisions than the crew of the Covenant. Envisioning Dr. Curt Connors in similar circumstances is also an amusing thought.
Starlogger - Ahhha, so you have an OLED... Could I live with you?
This thread took a quick turn for the worse... Haha but it's nice to see the date. I almost went ahead and preordered, but I am going to wait to make my purchase until the details of the special features are released (if they are released. If not, an instore pruchase is fine and dandy). I am honestly going to find, like, the most expensive and in-depth version possible. I am hoping for a documentary similiar the what Prometheus offered, ("The Furious Gods," was the title I think) and what not.

@cuponator3000 @VivisectedEngineer
Sorry for the ugliness this thread brought about. Still stoked A:C will be coming out soon and yes, hopefully there will be a documentary similar to what Prometheus had!
"The trick, William Potter, is not minding that it hurts."
Thanks... I'm 0% sorry, because I genuinely thought it was all good fun. All of this is nothing more serious than entertainment after all...
But yes, I'm also super stoked A:C will be here sooner rather than later, I hope we get lots of cool extra features.
Also, I hope my Covenant T-Shirts get here in time for Facehuggers!'s documentary interview!
cuponator3000 I suspect we will get milked by several versions- theatrical cut, director's cut a bit later, a repackaging of the whole series including AC, a special bundling with a Walter figure, the 10, 20 and 30 year anniversery cuts with special footage not seen in the original (that they could have released with the first blu ray) etc... We are all in for a good thorough fleecing ;)
Haha @dk, it's an expensive habit! This article, ‘Alien: Covenant’ Steelbook Revealed; 4K Blu-ray Pre-Orders Rising , gives a few details about some of the offerings. Well, one, the Steel-box set (blu-ray) that has the movie and another disc (unkown if it is DVD version or special features). The other is that repackaging of the whole series so far.
The cover for the steelbox is amazing and if entire series cover in the article is the real one, then it is kind of cool too! It kind of shows how oddball Prometheus is compared to the Alien franchise though (consdiering it isn't an Alien/gore fest) because they put the Deacon on there haha!
But yeah, I smell a Director's cut for this one. Even though I am pretty sure that Ridley is happy with the way it turned out. He doesn't necessarily like doing them either (I think.) I can imagine it being released slightly before or after the Covenant sequel to hype that theatrical release up and maybe win back some of the detractors at the same time. Then again, it will probably be included in one of those anniversary editions like you said, dk.
