Message: [QUOTE="huskyrob1, post: 2424966, member: 1226"] Alien was Ridley Scott's masterpiece. Although fans of Gladiator might disagree. In any event, Alien Covenant was just another rip off of the original film, going back to James Cameron's ridiculous sequel. In the original film (a marvel of sets, acting, lighting, musical score) we see the miracle of Ripley, with all her crew mates dead, finally killing the "perfect organism" that has a skeleton made of steel and has acid for blood. The character "Ash" and his dieing words in response to Ripley's question about how to kill the creature..."you can't...it's structural integrity is matched only by it's hostility". Then in Cameron's stupid sequel you get the impression that anyone with a rapid fire BB gun can kill hundreds of Aliens and blow them all to pieces, complete with death screeches like someone just ran over some squirrels.
