I thought this movie was set between the first and the second. If you watched the second one, from 1986, you know that all but one die. But now I'm seeing a space station in the trailer. I'm confused.
I generally have low expectations of sequels, but one of the writers (Dan O'Bannon) is also credited on Alien and Aliens. The trailer doesn't seem to leave much to the imagination, but given that xenomorphs aren't exactly mysterious to viewers after eight preceding films, it seems possible that this one might aim to build tension in some other way. I'll try to keep an open mind.
I dont watch trailers to avoid spoilering myself, but I am curious to know if this finishes off the two prequel movies? I know they are somewhat controversial but personally I liked them and would be a lot more interested in that than yet another timeskip or reboot
Seems like they're focusing on the body horror more than the previous installments with the close-up shots of facehuggers and that long-ass chest buster scene. Something tells me we won't get much in terms of story or character development, but I guess we'll see.
I think it'll be a fun watch, but also looks to be just rehashing everything we've seen out of the franchise already.
