Why did I pay $15 to watch some xenomorph

human baby attempt to breastfeed from its obviously disgusted mother. DUMB

Good for Weyland Yutani on creating a colony of British/English people on Jackson’s Star.

      I mean, I didn’t hate it. There is a lot of gross use of Ian Holm’s face for Ash that made me roll my eyes every time he popped up. The story itself was pretty meh - but if you watched Prometheus and Covenant (or Resurrection) and went “mario-thumbs-up” it’s a solid film.

      I will say the standout actor is David Jonsson for his role as Andy. Probably really the only thing that kept me in my seat besides the fact that I like movies set in space & like watching slop in the theaters. Should I have seen Trap instead though? Probably.

      My consensus? Unless you’re an Aliens fan, catch it on a matinee or when it hits streaming.

        Last movie I paid for was furiosa which I thought was awesome but it didn’t make that much money, so they’re gonna be producing slop whether I spend my money on it or not….

          idk I haven’t seen anything that’s currently out. I also haven’t seen anything since Furiosa, in fact I think that’s the only movie I’ve seen in a theater all year

          edit: they just re-released Coraline in theaters, so I’d see that lol
