Anyone who hasn’t seen Mandy yet needs to question their life choices. If you don’t know what it is, do yourself a favor and don’t even watch the trailer. Just sit down in a dark room with a big TV with big speakers and perhaps a nice, big bowl and press play. And thank me later. ???

Glad I'm not the only one who enjoys a bowl of ramen during film viewings
Looks interesting.
Can't tell if I'd love or hate "Kin," but the fact that the "Stranger Things" and "Arrival" folks are involved is promising.

That's the thing, it got lukewarm reviews so it makes me hesitate. But, I try to reserve judgement of a movie until i've actually seen it. I like that Mogwai did the soundtrack too

I've watched all the Harry Potter movies lately and I can say they're nice entertainment despite being partly cringy.
Some Rifftrax accompaniment makes them all far more enjoyable, in my opinion!

If this ever gets made let's hope Sir Ridley doesn't make a mess of this one too ???

Yuck.
And what's the author hemming and hawing about with the jockey? Isn't it the lone engineer that sits in that seat, to then fly the ship, before he crashes at the end of Prometheus?
What is with the android lore with him anyways.
He discredited the queen too, because he has an android making the aliens…..

I think making sequels and prequels to films first screened 30-40 years ago is always risky. The audience and cinema generally have changed hugely in that time, and just like when a music artist covers a favourite classic, most prefer the original but some new listeners will prefer the cover.
That said, I can't recall ever watching a prequel that I enjoyed more than the original. Could be wrong.

Agree on Ridley discrediting the queen. But, I recall there being a deleted scene from Alien where Dallas is taken by the xeno and is cocooned. This scene implied that hosts can be turned into eggs. Either way, having a queen laying eggs is a better idea imo

True, good point and nice addition with the director cut of the original Alien, in regards to Dallas.
Notice how we still remember the characters names for the good movies in the series??

My issues with the prequels is the lack of character development and a coherent script. You didn’t care if the characters died and the existential bs was a little interesting but ultimately ruined the mystery of the xenos and engineers. It’s lazy storytelling imo. Ridley should’ve let someone else carry on the franchise just like the path Disney has taken with the Star Wars films

Outlaw King gets a thumbs up from me and the Mrs. If you like historical action drama movies then this is defo worth a viewing.

I hadn't seen one of 'm but decided to give 'm a go after reading a review for the new FANTASTIC BEASTS flick… I like 'm... Now watching THE GOBLET OF FIRE... But definitely looking forward to the DEATHLY HALLOWS two-parter...

Atta boy @Seul The movies get better and better as they go. And the last few are very good. I read the books and it helped me appreciate The movies more.

Currently watching this classic. Can you guess what movie?

@jonesy4885:
The Thing, sequel is ok too.
I really wanted to like the prequel but it felt like an imitation of the first. Plus, they mucked it up with silly cgi rather than sticking with practical fx.
