Well you did the wrong thing here because all the entire Alien franchise are a collective.

You need some philosophical detachment and some experiential range to say anything useful about anything.
Speaking of pretentious assholes. You are one of them. The studios don't care whether the audience knows about film. They look at dollar signs. Look at how much money Wolverine vs Deadpool made. You wanna discuss bad movies, that would be the one to discuss. However those that loved that movie have a lot of meaningful things to say about reason they thought it was a great movie.
Completely confused response. And you were doing so well. C-. -

Fine. I will make it very simple for you.
People who watch only Hollywood films in an amateur way tend to all think alike. You need some philosophical detachment and some experiential range to say anything useful about anything.
I call bullshit on that. Have a good day! -

yes it does. you don't need good actors in a horror movie? how else is it gonna be believable if the acting sucks?
When I watch horror movies, I judge them on
•the story,
•the plot,
•the visual effects,
• technical stuff like the directing
•how much it scared me,
•which horror tropes it used,
•the sound effects and the characters.
•sometimes originality
All the actor has to do is look like they believe the events are happening to them.
I can watch a horror movie not knowing any of the actors, even if it has bad acting and still give it a high rating.
For instance the first 3 of The Evil Dead movies have the worst acting that I've seen in a horror movie so far. But the first movie and the second movie are great horror films.
Train to Busuan is another example. I don't know any of those actors. The zombie actors were amazing though. The other actors weren't giving the best acting by no means but the movie is still in the top 20 of Best Horror movies.
Night of the Living Dead has awful acting in it. But it is still alegend.

you're right
I wasnt expecting that reply from you!
But anyway, since we were judging the synthetic humans in the Alien universe, what did you think about Ash, Bishop and Call? You said that you hated Andy. I liked Andy when he was under the control of Rook. Cuz then he acted like black folks are supposed to behave in a situation where you are trapped on a derelict spaceship with Aliens on it.
He wouldn't open the door for Kay because he knew that's what the alien wanted them to do. I would have done the exact same thing! Fuck that bitch! Lol
He knew how to get the face hugger off of Navarro. He knew the face huggers were heat sensor. It was brilliant.
He was multifaceted–a sweet innocent and vulnerable cyborg–> cold calculating AI–>>hero protector.
