It's hard to believe Ridley Scott is 86, he seems to have a lot of energy when he speaks and is sharp with his responses
I agree with him on Romulus being too long. 20 minutes less and a finale with a freakin XENOMORPH as the movie's title implies would have made this into a masterpiece.
"Directors tend to make it too long"
Damn straight, and you know what was too long? NAPOLEON.
Brilliant!!!
I was entertained by Romulus. But it was Callback Central to the point the references to previous films weren't easter (or aline) eggs.
He has ao much character is his speech i love it
GO SEE ROMULUS!!! ONE OF THE BEST FILMS OF THE YEAR, HONOUR'S THE FRANCHISE LEGACY WHILE STILL DOING UNIQUE AND NEW THINGS WITH ALIEN.
9/10 MOVIE, You'll be happy 😁💪🏾
Like Ridley is going to trash the movie he produced. Similar to Dial of destiny, Spielberg praised that clusterf.
He should've said, you copied me kid 💀
Saw this movie yesterday 29th aug. Just as scary as the original movie with Sigorney Weaver,which I watched when I was 17.
He is SO up himself
Extremely overrated director
🤢
Christian bale and ridley scott two british legend 🇬🇧👋👋👋
Ime sure that the fact that he was the producer of the film raises it to level it is…even tho he haven't directed it himself.
I think ppl praise this guy to much, yes he has some great movies but this guy is bad at hiring writers for aliens films .
Hurry up an make a true sequel to Prometheus with the Engineers as the main focus
It was only marginally better than Alien 4…. the entire movie saved by the American Actress in it.
Thanks Ridley, so we've lost a load of footage thanks to you :
Giger is a Renaissance.
He should’ve told him to cut the last 15 minutes off, it was superb until then.
I'd love to see Ridley work with Alverez to finish the prometheus trilogy.
Scott is so overrated. He’s directed so many stinkers.. Great films, Alien, BladeRunner.. not much else.
He needs to stop producing films never mind directing them; another disappointing film.
Since Prometheus and Alien Covenant I can see and hear now that Sir Ridley Scott is much older now. His voice sounds different from 12 years ago. Time flies!
I wonder if Ridley Scott had a George-Lucas-Phantom-Menace-screening 'Maybe I went too far' moment, and then thought, well, it wasn't me, I was just a producer. Alec Baldwin defence!
Ok now Ridley Scott is an idiot
His eyes look celestial
I still can not forgive him for Alien Covenant and canceling Alien 5
Excellent movie.
I do enjoy him cutting through the bs questions like a hot knife through butter. Clever dude.
He's an amazing filmmaker, too bad he's all woke now 😢.
I would have rather had Ripley, Hicks and Newt than another retread…
The ending was still too long-winded. It felt forced and failed to keep the initial energy. After a while i was "alright already!".
Otherwise, pretty entertaining. I also felt like i was playing Dead Space. Pretty familiar feeling. Maybe an inspiration for some scenes? Who knows.
Judge for yourselves.
"Brad didn't read" – for.. The Counselor? 🥴
Ridley's sounding old af 😢
Hopefully after the Bee Gees biographie.
3/10
This movie is absolutely sh*thouse. Its just cinematic faeces, frankly. Ridley Scott is a sell out and I've embarrassed myself recommending it to my friends to come with me to watch it. It has zero quality and walked pissed at the end. Just garbage through and through.
Alien Romulus is UTTER GARBAGE – just saw it yesterday, was talked into going. No redeeming features. Worst film I ever saw at the cinema, not kidding.
Was not a fan of this one. My least favorite of all 7. It is a derivitave. Added nothing new and felt extremely safe. Rain was pretty lame final girl. 🙁
This 2 hr movie def felt much longer it was great
These questions blow.
He never made a Movie I didn't totally enjoy. I see his name, and I go for it
I saw it with an open mind but was quickly disappointed. Most characters were awful and annoying. Many scenes looking like those from Alien and Aliens , but the last Alien was a BIG DISAPPOINTMENT. Could have been much better and I should have waited for the DVD. Very few in cinema which was a BIG surprise.
Thanks Ridley for the Masterpiece!
Also thanks to Cameron, who continued his legacy with same quality in Aliens!
They could make a trilogy story of the engineers home planet next.
They need to explore that world and location in the cosmos.
A qualified tip from me:
1. Less facehuggers.
2. More cowbell.
Guys lost it
Love to hear that Geordie accent. He's an inspiration and I'm proud to be from where he's from.
