        You think so? While the main cast is changed (due to gratuitous deaths in the first) we meet David again and learn of the fate of the sole survivor of the first.

        I was sort of expecting to see the third revealing what happens to the hibernating colonists and David at their ultimate destination; which would presumably lead up to the original movie and crash site on LV-426.

          I mean, it followed up the predecessor as well as Alien^3 did I guess. ;) “Newt? Hicks? Yeah, fuck you, they’re dead.”

        What were they thinking with the whole “xenomorphs are part human combined with black goo” nonsense in Prometheus? Reminded me of the Star Wars prequels in terms of unnecessary lore. It was still a better movie than Covenant though!

        To be fair I enjoyed both… maybe harsh comparing it to Star Wars.
