TV Series

Am clueless how to do the spoiler link so don’t reason from here if you haven’t watched Alien Earth! Because they might be spoilers..



Loved the early alien films, while watching the series was always thinking back to the alien film being two years after the this series and what was going on on Earth with the world regarding the androids, in the original film the android was a newer modal because the older modals “had problems” now is that a link to this new series? Not sure! This trillionair wanker though has the idea to transfer kids memories ’who are very ill and going to die into an android! The ship though that was sent out into space by this trillionaire to find new species of aliens is where I feel the series could take of as something total separate storyline! That new alien eyeballspider is brilliant great imagination by whoever come up with it. Just imagine going back to that planet to find more of them? Where what these could do is limitless as in taking over any person any animal! This series has set it up for something special if the writing is well thought out and written as good as this series!

You know, I forgot it was supposed to be set before the first film. I think the writers forgot, too!

I didn't link it at all, just made it it's own separate entity cos, logically, some of it doesn't go together at all!!

I agree with you on 'The Eye' as I've been singing its creation praises from day one! Yes, the potential is awesome. I just hope the writers aren't afraid to go wherever they need to with it.

The next series (there's guarantee it will get one due to viewing numbers) is crucial and they can't rush it.
 
I have no idea what to make of Alien Earth.

I’ve not watched it but was possibly considering it.

Heard the first episode is good but then after that it’s dreadful. But yet people have stuck with it to the end so it can’t all be that bad?

Everyone says completely different things. Usually people follow a general opinion but with this reviews are all over the show.

For me, if you move beyond just the Xenomorph predator we were introduced to, you will enjoy the universal expansion.

The expansive world is what a LOT of people are finding difficult to contend with.

Wait...I haven't seen this new series yet, but you say it's set 2 years before Alien, and earth is supposedly rampant with xenomorphs?
How does that work, as when Ripley comes out of hyper sleep at the start of Aliens (57 years after Alien) there had still been no documented sight of any xenomorphs anywhere?

I agree with you. The only way this works is if in the second (or third series if any of that happens) all Xenomorph life forms are wiped out and I don't see how that happens (however it is set on an island and we don't know the aquatic value to any of them), so I get the feeling they forgot to link it all together with the way it's written.

BUT, I think you should watch it anyway!!

Oh, I no doubt will at some point as I'm a big fan of the films. Just seems like a major fuck up timeline wise
 
I know am late in getting to watch DEXTER 19 years behind LOL.
This dexter guy is strange to say the least. I will be having nightmares tonight.

Started Gomorrah and did a couple of seasons - I think. Had a break for a bit and now have no idea where I was up to so I'd have to start again.
