    Covenant until the second half. Prometheus until the second half. It's a curse and they're both on the same level.

      If you actually understand what made the original Alien great then Prometheus and Covenant are even more offensive to you. I couldn't give a frick about Cameron's rollercoaster ride shit.

    First one; it literally doesn't have homosexual shit and the protagonist doesn't look like the new action lesbian stereotype

    Both were lazily written, Covenant was worse.

        It's probably all AI generated garbage. I'm sure, at that time, they were selling access to early secret versions of ChatGPT to holywood.

      I've never understood the complaints about the guy getting lost. He sent some drones off they they sent the map data back to the ship, the guy in charge of the drones never got to see the map. Why wouldn't he get lost in a confusing and unfamiliar web of corridors?

        By not stepping a foot in there to begin with. If his job is sending drones to map that shit he has no reason to get in. In fact if they were reasonable scientists they all should have waited in the ship for the drones data.

          There's also no sense that each suit wouldn't have mapping tech of it's own that would tell the wearer the path it has walked so they could follow it back. Or to you know, put down flares, markers and brightly colored rope every so often to guide you back. But no, that's far too complicated for these guys on their super expensive interstellar expedition

    covenant by a slim margin, evil david was fricking kino. On the flip side prometheus had better engineer worldbuilding.

    you mean which is worse - pretty close, but that dishonour has to go to prometheus simply for all of the utterly moronic decisions made by the crew

    Prometheus is better. Covenant is tonally really weird, it's like it's trying to be Alien and Aliens at the same time and doing neither especially well. The martial arts android fight was a truly bizarre moment

      Covenant is like the theatrical version of BvS, there's big chunks missing that explain why people are acting the way they do so nothing makes any sense

    It's funny how they are doing a female version of almost every franchise nowadays, but there is still no Alien film with a male lead to revert the trend of female MCs.

    Covenant. The aesthetic is closer to the originals and it didn't have Lindelof writing it.

    i genuinely think if they made a third movie that bridged the gap between covenant and alien 1- people would look back on these favorably.

    Why would someone prefer Prometheus?

      Because it's a prequel set in the alien universe but it's not bound by the rules of alien movies

      The sequel completely guts the ending of the 1st movie by killing the protagonist in the most awful horrible way.

      Most of what I remember from the movie is people running aroenter on the rain at night or in a cave. That stupid woman who messed up the airlock and blew up the ship or whatever.

      Prometheus on the other hand is a slow build-up fantasy movie about 1st contact with aliens.

    Prometheus is a better movie. However, it has huge flaws.
    >The mapper gets lost in the ship.
    >The biologist is scared of a dead body, but wants to suck on some alien cobras heads.
    >The half handed insults to Athiesm via the biologist being ambiguously gay and stupid. Keep your politics outside of the movie.
    >The husband guy taking his helmet off in an alien environment. Guess it's fine.

    These are the major issues I had with the movie before it falls apart. The moment the movie falls apart is when the MC meets old Guy Pierce (Weyland) in makeup and every moment after that is incredibly fricking stupid. What's worse is that this moment follows after my favorite part of the movie, which is the abortion machine scene with the squid. I think the biggest issues with the movie is that seemingly smart characters constantly making stupid choices in order for the plot to happen.

    Covenant is just stupid from the first frame to the last with some cool bits thrown in every once in a while. In the theater I knew I was watching absolute trash during the first alien part where the woman is slipping around everywhere instead of helping at all. Fricking stupid.

    Both have very good visuals.

    Prometheus. Covenant was rewritten heavily to cater to critics of Prometheus and ended up a worse movie because of it.

    Covenant is a more solid film, if simplistic.

    Prometheus is so painfully stupid and structurally bad that it's not even fun to watch as a bad flick.
