  1. He was up there with Bill Paxton when it came to adding a Southern character to a film. I'm surprised he was 68, I thought he was older so I wonder if he had something going on affecting his health.
  2. I'm going to wait till all the episodes are out. If there is no official subtitles by then I'll watch the fansubs. Their loss and by loss I mean money.
  3. Just hit me that with ALIEN: Covenant and Blade Runner 2049 it seems 2017 is the year of Ridley Scott. Interesting times we live in.
  4. Ridley is a great director and though his work is not consistent, I place some of the blame on poor writing. Especially with Prometheus, that was all Lindelof's fault. My favorite Ridley Scott film? GLADIATOR
  5. Official trailer. Don't know what to think other than it looks pretty. This will also be the first film I've seen with Ryan Gosling, lol.
  6. Frankly I was expecting the reviews to be worse but I'm more interested in a fan's review than a professional critic's. At this point I'm still going to see it. My expectations won't be high and after thinking about it the biggest problem the ALIEN franchise ever had was the high bar set by the first two films.
  7. Early reviews look good and after the latest trailers I'm officially on board for seeing it. http://www.express.co.uk/entertainment/films/800654/Alien-Covenant-reviews-premiere-fan-reactions-Ridley-Scott
  8. I prefer the term "Artificial Person" myself.
  9. I never read the book as well. There has been so much hype to the book I guess I expected something bigger.
  10. Oh wow, looks like we can get a B&W version on Blu-ray and see a limited release this month too! http://www.avclub.com/article/black-and-white-version-logan-coming-alamo-draftho-254632
  11. Wow. I wonder if they ever entertained the idea of releasing it in B&W as an original format? It definitely would have earned awards but probably at the cost of ticket sales.
  12. Said it was hand burned. I almost bought till I saw the $20 shipping. I know its coming from overseas but I don't have the $$ to burn like that.
  13. Neat little find on Etsy. I'm tempted to buy one. https://www.etsy.com/listing/270319786/space-battleship-yamato-inspired-wood?ga_order=most_relevant&ga_search_type=all&ga_view_type=gallery&ga_search_query=battleship yamato&ref=sr_gallery_3
  14. Prometheus is a pretty film, worth a watch at least once. Covenant seems to be a bigger film than we expect. I could be wrong but it really does look like Ridley Scott is working hard to make up for Prometheus.
  15. In anticipation of the movie I reloaded ALIEN: Isolation. It'll be my third time playing and it's still a great game, one of my top favorites for single player.
  16. People do stupid stuff all the time. Why someone feels the need to climb a dangerous mountain for sport is just as bizarre to me.
  17. Lots of spoilers being let loose on the new film today. Kinda hard to avoid it all, ugh. Still, the film looks bigger than I expected and I hope it won't ruin the film's horror component which ALIEN is supposed to be first; action, adventure, etc should be secondary.
  18. LOL, no. The old Battlefront games, especially the second game, played too much like Quake and I mean the first Quake.
  19. I hope the next series will include a new style of animation. The current CGI is getting tired.
  20. The Battlefront II trailer was sweet but so was the first Battlefront I trailers too If EA wants me to buy the game then Battlefront needs to be more like Battlefield and I don't understand why they don't do that.
