    I may be wrong but I think he has made a comment related to this on at least 20-30 movies and show threads that I have seen the last few years.

    Had to log out to see wtf you were talking about.

    This is one of those people who 'woked' me to the point where they ended up on my ignore list. You're better off with them there.

    So Romulus and Remus were the legendary founders of Rome, and were supposedly raised by wolves.

    Based on that intial poster, It seems like they are going for the "raised by wolves" (aka xenomorphs) angle? Am I reading too much into it?

    Don't forget that the amazing and epic Raised by Wolves sci-fi show on HBO was also produced by Ridley Scott.

    Not impressed- it looks like they tried to do everything that made aliens great. The problem is it's a generic copy redo and nothing new plus the characters don't seem impressive.

    I agree, I hope the trailer isn't showing everything. We know exactly what's going to happen, crew gets got one by one by the xenomorphs with all the traditional Alien cliches like chest bursts and jump scares in dark ship corridors. However I appreciate that they aren't pandering to anyone, at least from the trailers. If this movie is not woke its going to be successful.

    Yup, this one might be solid. Didn't notice anything woke. If the Xenomorphs were black vampire killers this movie would have been cancelled a long time ago.

    Yeah. It looks a little more visceral and graphic but same premise, maybe leaning a little more into the face-hugger horror aspect. Director is known for his horror movies. An easy layup for the studio to make some bucks.

    We need a Blade in space movie where Blade has to hunt down xenomorphs, there... Was that so hard? Who doesn't want to watch Blade fight a xenomorph? All the woke people can't think of a single original idea because they are too busy trying to figure out how they can inject identity politics into a Blade movie lol...
