The truth about Alien: Covenant

[anatine]

also so we are clear the entire plot for the first 20 minutes of covenant literally makes absolutely no sense at all.

[anatine]

like in the other movies there was this very deliberate invisible hand guiding everyone and everything, eg the evil corporation making sure the ship 'stumbled' across a distress beacon in Alien, that sort of underpinning is entirely out the fucking window here.

god i hate covenant.

i so rarely feel this way but i genuinely wish id never watched it.

its literally 2 or 3 big money scenes that someone wanted to make with a shitty movie hastily slapped together to prop them up.

[anatine]

also the timeline is supposed to be

- Prometheus
- Covenant
- Alien

But without a movie between Covenant and Alien there is zero point zero logical continuity between Covenant's final scenes and Alien's opening scenes. Which is hilarious considering I hear Ridley Scott would chew off his own fingers before using them to direct another Alien film.

And to be clear its not like it was some giant monumental challenge to develop continuity between them, they just couldnt be assed to do so.
