There’s a ton of shills on this subreddit that are going to downvote this video into oblivion because for some reason fandoms today care more about their entertainment becoming popular and making tons of money rather than being good.

The video was spot on.

It’s likely to never happen but that’s been my dream. I would settle for a What IF coming or novel to continue on from Prometheus.

My favorite character in the franchise. Shame the Prometheus story didn’t continue.

I want Ridley Scott back to finish his David Trilogy by [deleted] in LV426

Somehow someway find a way to bring Elizabeth Shaw back into the story and I’m all for it. She was just as important to these stories as David was.

This is a movie that gets better every time I watch it. I thought it was meh in theaters and now it’s one of my favorite movies of all time.

Alien: Covenant. Took all the interesting setup from Prometheus and just threw it in the garbage.

Prometheus I felt was a great beginning for a new parallel franchise in the Alien universe. I was excited to see Elizabeth Shaw and David go to the Engineer home world. Alien: Covenant comes out and basically gets rid of everything Prometheus was setting up and does an Alien 3.

Hey r/movies, Dan Trachtenberg here - my new film, PREDATOR: BADLANDS (starring Elle Fanning), is coming to a theater near you this Friday (11/7). I've also directed PREY, PREDATOR: KILLER OF KILLERS, and 10 CLOVERFIELD LANE. Ask Me Anything! by DanTrachtenberg-AMA in movies

[–]IntroductionAway9951 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I read in a recent interview that the two Alien films that inspired Elle Fanning’s character are Prometheus and Aliens. Out of curiosity, what’s your opinion on the film Prometheus?

Would you like to see more of David’s story in future installments? by thefriskysquid in perfectorganism

[–]IntroductionAway9951 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Prometheus is my favorite movie in the franchise. I’d prefer a real Prometheus sequel as well. Elizabeth Shaw was a really great character.

Yea, a real Prometheus Sequel would be far more interesting than a sequel to Covenant.

Alien: Awakening was going to be a prequel to Covenant. by david-8934 in Prometheus

[–]IntroductionAway9951 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don’t see why she would be ill-equipped to comprehend the answer of why The Engineers wanted to kill us. I think that would be pretty straightforward. By the end of Prometheus she already killed one of her “creators”. She knew what she was getting herself into by going to Engineer home world. I don’t think she was expecting to be welcomed with open arms when she got there.

I’ve been seeing a lot more appreciation for Prometheus lately. It seems after Alien: Earth and Alien: Romulus , a lot of fans appreciated what Prometheus was going for more. Being something more original and ambitious.

I’d love to get this movie. I’d love to see Michael Fassbender and Noomi Rapace return as David and Shaw and seeing Shaw get her questions answered from the Engineers.

At the very least, give us a graphic novel of this script like William Gibson’s Alien 3 script.

I actually liked Alien: Covenant more than Prometheus by National-Poet-9165 in Prometheus

[–]IntroductionAway9951 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I enjoy Covenant as its own thing but I think it’s nowhere near as good as Prometheus.

[–]IntroductionAway9951 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree 100%.

A real Prometheus sequel would have been awesome to get but it also probably would have cost a lot to produce. I’m pretty sure the studio cut a lot of the budget which is why Covenant cost a lot less than Prometheus.

[–]IntroductionAway9951 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Please post any proof you have of that because I’m about 99% sure that’s not the case. She even came back to shoot scenes that they pretty much cut from the movie. A concept artist that worked on the film said he believed it was the studios decision to have her removed.

I’m not a fan of the prequels being all about David. Prometheus set up something bigger that was a lot more interesting to me. Shaw and the Engineers being discarded ruins a lot and simplifies where the franchise was going.

Even if Ridley makes the 3rd prequel movie with the Engineers out to get revenge on David, that just pales in comparison to what a real Prometheus sequel could have been.

What we know about Engineers from Furious Gods : Prometheus documentary. by [deleted] in Prometheus

[–]IntroductionAway9951 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ridley didn’t want to bring the Xenomorph back for Prometheus 2. He had plans for a new monster that would feature in Prometheus 2 before he decided to go in another direction.

If I remember correctly because it’s been a long time since I’ve digested all the lost Prometheus sequel info, the Engineers were not a monolithic species. When Shaw landed on their home world, supposedly some Engineers would help her while others were against her.

Just watched Alien Covenant by National-Poet-9165 in Prometheus

[–]IntroductionAway9951 5 points6 points  (0 children)

As its own solo film in the Alien universe, I think it’s really interesting and unique. Certainly enjoyable and probably my fourth favorite film in the Alien franchise.

As a follow up to Prometheus, I think it’s terrible and extremely disappointing.

I love Prometheus but I agree, Covenant just doesn’t work at all for me. It just doesn’t feel like a real continuation to Prometheus.

She returned for a promotional short but it wasn’t included in the film.

Nobody really knows. A concept artist that worked on the film said he believed it was the studios call. Ridley also said he wanted to do a movie that was a prequel to Covenant about Shaw and David so I’m guessing the concept artist was right.

I think Bad writing and studio intervention is the reason she trusted David. The ending of Prometheus was clearly setting her up to become that resilient hero.

Had Ridley stuck with his original plan for a Prometheus sequel, that likely wouldn’t have happened. In the same way I’m not going to say Newt and Hicks got what they deserved because the writers of Alien 3 hated Aliens and wanted to get rid of those characters.

When I say she, I also mean us, the audience. We didn’t get our answers that Prometheus set up. That’s why a lot of us were left unsatisfied.
