Happy to see how these franchises do not die, revive and reach new audiences although that has always been since the time of Dracula 😃, I saw this movie with my friends and I liked it especially when I was catching the references to previous films, my friends did not like it kjaja in fact they found it awful but it is the eternal conflict of the general audience with the terror 😅
In my case I enjoyed this film from start to finish, 7. 5 was my perception, the empathy for the characters and I consider there is almost no empathy haha, in my case to say two examples Dr. Shaw and David are characters that at a narrative level I married for the great depth that they manage to convey in their stories etc, none of the above I perceived in Romulus precisely because of what you mention, because it is a very well crafted Fan Service, I think the success of this film is that the Xenomorph shines and that reached the classic audiences and new generations 😃
I think that the audience that was satisfied with what Alvarez did is because he made a film simple in narrative which fits with the simple minds of current generations, there is no philosophical depth as in previous films that in my case I do love and appreciate but those narratives with so many reflections is difficult to fill theaters haha 😅
Happy to see that this Xenomorph Universe is still alive \😃/
Feliz de ver como estas franquicias no muere, reviven y llegan a nuevas audiencias aunque eso ha sido siempre desde tiempos de Dracula 😃, esta película la vi con mis amigos y me agrado sobre todo cuando fui captando las referencias a anteriores films, a mis amigos no note les agradara kjaja de hecho les pareció pesima pero es el eterno conflicto de la audiencia general con el terror 😅
En mi caso disfrute este film de principio a fin, 7.5 fue mi percepcion, lo de la empatia por los personajes y considero hay casi nula empatia jaja, en mi caso por decir dos ejemplos la Dra Shaw y David son personajes con los que a nivel narrativo me case por la gran profundidad que logran transmitir en sus historias etc, nada de lo anterior percibi en Romulus precisamente por lo que mencionas, porque es un muy y bien Elaborado Fan Service, pienso que el exito de este film es que Brilla el Xenomorfo y eso llego a las audiencias clásicas y nuevas generaciones 😃
Pienso que la audiencia que se sintió satisfecha con lo que hizo Alvarez es porque hizo un film simple en narrativa lo cual engrana con las mentes simples de generaciones actuales, no hay una profundidad filosofica como en anteriores films que en mi caso sí adoro y aprecio pero esas narrativas con tantas reflexiones es dificil que llenen salas de cine jaja 😅
Feliz de ver que este Universo del Xenomorfo sigue vivo \😃/
Exactly, that depth of Prometheus or Covenant doesn't exist in this film and I think it's the most similar to what happens in the first one, where a crew has to deal with a lethal creature that's great, but as you and I both perceive, the danger is increased by 10, as there's everything that happened in the franchise in one film; it's definitely a movie for the fans.
This year the series or miniseries called Alien: Earth is coming out and I will try to have as low expectations as I had for this film and there is also a new Predator movie coming out, so the 80's live on.
