    Alien Romulus. It’s the first alien movie I’ve ever seen. I loved it and am very excited for the sequels.

    After finishing, I just started doing some googling and came across a Reddit thread that was bashing this movie to pieces. None of it made sense, but I could only assume it was cause I’ve never seen the first two.

    Anyway, I will definitely watch the first two at some point, but I doubt it will make me dislike this movie the way the alien die cards do.

      I am not an Alien die hard fan, but I’d say that is definitely a factor. The movie reuses a lot of ideas from the older movies and some of the references are pretty on the nose. Still an entertaining movie though.

      As a comparison i think Prey (2022) did a better job in being a fresh entry to a similar and established franchise (predator in this case) and standing on it’s own.
