Comments

Shadow Rune: don't think this necessarily means peacock wants to salvage a career though
Shadow Moth: Scott's been going at it for decades but Alien was always a mess to me
Halcyon Nomad: ridiculous that this one still has fans so divided; i remember all the hate when it first came out 💔
Ellislena: interesting to see this get re-purposed as a "throwback" instead of facing its actual critiques head-on
Marek: people seem to either love or hate this one, no middle ground whatsoever
Milabrar: thought it was still a contentious topic, but I guess even Peacock wants a piece of that alien pie
Elin: I never got why this one was so polarizing - I guess people just needed an Alien movie to hate
Iris: not buying the idea that this is somehow a 'new' or improved streaming experience - it's been out for years
Brunob: ridley scott's gotta be loving this kind of chaos 🤣
Lucaspark: thought "Prometheus" was a mess when I saw it in theaters, still don't get why they tried to recast and reboot everything. Guess Peacock is desperate for some
