Same. The trailers gave me a nervous "AvP:R" vibe but I ended up really liking how the film focused on how kids like Newt and her friends would feel about living on remote mining colonies in their teens and 20's (spoiler alert, they think it sucks, lol.)
Wow back and forth with DPW.
I'm glad we're finally getting R-rated big budget mainstream popcorn movies again. We've only had to wait what, 20 years since the original Matrix trilogy?
And from Disney of all places!
Holy crap you're right, Deadpool and Romulus. PG Dune looks even dumber now, lol.
They need the “Angrier Chani” R Cut!
With strange aeons even death may die. Just saying...
It is fixable though. The goo from the alien Romulus only created more eggs, facehuggers and xenos (plus hybrid xeno human) so that goo is just xeno genetic material.
Wait until you see the deleted scene of the kids crashing the APV!
I'm not going to defend anything in Prometheus or Covenant but as far as Romulus is concerned I'm fine with the goo simply being xeno DNA that the company was trying to make a magic serum out of, and the end result was something that you'd never want to inject into yourself under any circumstances. If it was a metaphor for the COVID vax then who knows what cocktail of additional ingredients the W-Y scientists might have added to it to prior to the kids stumbling onto the lab.
That is true as soon as you remove those 2 movies the black goo is a 100% non issue as used in this movie.
