In Reply to: I think there are a lot of Prometheus fans who were/are not for the Aliens series. posted by free.ranger on May 26, 2017 at 07:02:36:
...Prometheus was too cerebral for most of today's movie going audience delving as it did into subjects like faith and origin. I think RS and financial backers wanted to avoid that and maximize teen/young adult audience potential this time around. So Covenant leaves all the heavy stuff behind and tries to get back to the original's tension and gore........but we've all been there and done that how many times now?.............
