FX’s ‘Alien’ series gets official title ‘Alien: Earth’

Hawley is disregarding both Prometheus and Covenant lore for this show. I don't know how to feel about that just yet.

[quote]“I’ve talked to Ridley Scott at length about it. For me and for many people, xenomorphs are the perfect life form. The creation of the creature is due to millions of years of evolution and comes from having existed for a million years in space. The idea expressed in those films, which is a biological weapon created half an hour ago, has no value for me.”

R1 Prometheus was great but Covenant should be ignored.

A) Quantum Mechanics tells us time is not linear. It's at least fixed, and if anything, it probably isn't real, so he can fuck right off with that comment.

B) If they weren't designed for killing, they haven't really *done* anything else that would point to a higher purpose. Unless this show is meant to address that, the original canon of P & C should stand and this entire show can fuck right off.

Noah Hawley is a creative genius, and he's made two of my favorite TV series, Legion and Fargo. I'm excited for this.

Trailer.

Eight episodes, first two out August 12th.

My crush Samuel Blenkin finally in a prominent role!

I like Alex Lawther as well.

Great trailer. I'll be watching.

Christ on a cracker — way to completely miss Hawley’s point.

What higher purpose do parasitic wasps express? Or filarial nematodes, or any other parasitic organism that exhibits diverse and complex life cycles?

Fuck off with that Aristotleon teleological bullshit.

I wonder what that lady is doing on that gorgeous terrace at 1:22, something shimmering is coming out of her hands. I hope it's magic, but it's probably not.

It looked to me like maybe bracelets or other jewelry glinting as it moved in the light. But this is Noah Hawley—could be it's something that will never be explained but will be captivating to watch nevertheless.

Romulus sequel starts shooting in October. It's a good time to be an Alien fan!

Show looks good

They're making a sequel to Romulus?!

I was NOT a fan of the first one. I'm surprised they're making another but probably shouldn't be

Romulus was a very good movie. The fans and the critics loved it. Why wouldn’t they make a sequel?

R15 it shouldn’t get a sequel because YOU didn’t like it?

Of course it’s getting a sequel, it is the highest grossing Alien movie to date. It did better than expected.

They wouldn’t make a sequel unless it made money. Presumably it did.
