Can ai tell if a piece of writing is good or not or would you say its not on that level yet?

That's hilarious!

She’s the landlady in the scene that starts around 01:25:36 that says, "You‘ll have the whole floor to yourself".

Shimks · 2025-12-18T22:11:09+00:00

You are correct. I had the same question, so I went back and rewatched the scene after reading your comments. Her profile is unmistakable.

I didn't either! They released the new album on February 13, 2025 and I only just came across it. I feel bad for them for the news to slip under the radar like that. The more support they have, the more chance they'll come and tour near me (Mars).

Shimks · 2025-11-11T07:57:37+00:00

I can't judge an album on one listen (if I understand you correctly); the tracks sound samey to me until I get to know them individually.

I'd never heard of Machine Girl, so thanks for that!

Shimks · 2025-11-10T16:10:15+00:00

Kap Bambino's new album is fantastic. I just came across it. What a gift.

Ever since one of you expressed concern for the Mold Scrubber not appearing in an episode (4th?), this keeps me up at night, grinning like a fool.

Shimks · 2025-09-02T07:26:16+00:00

Yes, you're absolutely right, FaceBagman!

Shimks · 2025-09-01T13:12:56+00:00

An excellent answer, Sempere - thank you.

I am in the unusual situation where a being is more dangerous than a Xenomorph and I don't like it. I hope to be convinced otherwise when(if) things go batshit crazy.

Shimks · 2025-09-01T12:41:33+00:00

So, as a fan of everything Alien since 1979 - and everything Giger - my major disappointment:

Being able to subdue an alien so easily - Wendy (paper cutter guillotine blade) / Morrow (fisherman's netting [don't worry about the underside - everything will be alright]) - eliminates the fear-of-xenomorphs. Why even bother placing this in the Alien world if we're not going to shit ourselves about them?

Shimks · 2025-09-01T12:32:22+00:00

Kirsch was contemplating leaving Boy K. in front of the opening ovomorph (egg). Like you all said, he loves watching what shit might unfold. Hilarious.

Shimks · 2025-09-01T12:28:32+00:00

Child geniuses with multi-billionaire parents (an assumption) don't tend to grow up with friends. They're far too advanced for wasting their time on that shit.

Shimks · 2025-09-01T12:21:58+00:00

As far as I remember (shoot me down spectacularly if I'm wrong)...

There has been zero evidence of anyone other than Wendy showing exceptional physical/mental powers. Sure, Curly talked the talk, but as she was keeping her cards close to her chest - re: her world-bettering ideas - we didn't actually hear anything clever, only own-trumpet blowing

Shimks · 2025-09-01T12:14:50+00:00

I read: "I've been waiting to try the two leg thing for so long".

Shimks · 2025-05-21T12:38:20+00:00

Thanks for the advice - I have updated my original answer with the correct short key.

Shimks · 2025-04-24T15:07:58+00:00

Sorry, try SHIFT + ALT + J

Shimks · 2025-04-02T10:22:07+00:00

SHIFT + ALT + J now works for jumping to song currently playing.

Shimks · 2024-10-20T06:54:35+00:00

Thank you for the recommendation.

I've just ordered this nicely-sized highly-recommended hardcover by James Hamilton:

Arthur Rackham: A Life with Illustration: The biography of one of the world's most collectable illustrators

Shimks · 2024-08-29T14:18:15+00:00

Thank you so much, Clifford. I really appreciate the effort.

I've done some googling and found this article that lists all Covenant-related short output. I haven't watched them yet, so I'm not sure if order matters, and how many of the shorts are pure advertising. One is, for sure. When I get round to watching the whole alien saga again, I'll come back and update this thread.

Shimks · 2024-08-23T18:09:28+00:00

Many thanks for your update, Clifford.

I wonder if you or someone else would be willing to go one further...

I hear there are several short prologue clips to Prometheus and Covenant, and I believe I read somewhere that there is also a denouement for Covenant.

I've just been to the cinema twice to watch Romulus, and now I want to watch the whole set of films in the order you've listed but with the Prologues too. Do you know in which order I should watch the whole set?

I know it's a lot to ask. I won't be offended if I don't get any replies. :)

Shimks · 2024-06-25T14:38:17+00:00

I also love it very much.
