I missed 3 intervals for pee breaks, and then I might have closed my eyes for a while near the end. I was really traumatized by the end of the movie, "Part 1" <shudders uncontrollably>

You mean you didnt sing along?

This is why I like watching movies at home. I can hit pause, go pee and not miss anything.

In this particular instance, I had no problem with missing parts of the show.

Maybe I'm not the demographic they were shooting for though. . .

Christopher Walken star of many films including Bond 007 has said he has no mobile phone or watch and has never sent an e-mail, only possesses a satellite dish and player where he watches Severance on DVD. Good for him

At last a modern film I may actually like in Flight Risk with Wahlberg, bring it on.

Wahlberg the bad chap? Looks like it.

TXSTYLE · 02-05-2025, 04:49 PM

Really liking the casting surprises here. I've always been a fan of the franchise too. Definitely looking forward to the visual and sound effects...

Quite like the concept, strong cast .... feels a little .... sort of BOXED and Pre-Fabbed by the cliché dialogue though.

Acheron - Alien fan film, it's a longish film clip done by a single person using various technology at his disposal, not sure if it will be made into a full length movie but if anything to go like this it'll be damn good.

TXSTYLE · 02-10-2025, 08:31 PM

This is IMO, one of the greatest Horror Franchises! I am definitely in for this... 😳

M5Rick · 02-12-2025, 05:18 AM

It had to happen in a new Alien:Earth production that is coming on US hulu, probably will be a film also but from what I understand this happens 2 years before the Prometheus in 'that' time.

TXSTYLE · 02-13-2025, 02:52 PM

Been waiting 9 Years for this... 👍🏽👍🏽

Ben Affleck at his best!

The Mrs and I watched this last night.
We both really enjoyed it! I give it a 5/5 Stars! 🤯
Excellent writing and storyline. Great action. Great onscreen chemistry between the two. Emotional. Solid special effects. Believable.
Well played Apple, well played. 👏🏽👏🏽

My wife and I also watched this after watching the Golden Globe or Emmy Awards, where Demi Moore finally won a Trophy for acting!

This movie is.... WOW!!!! 🤯🤯🤯🤯

Demi gave an incredible performance!
The movie and subject are very relevant to today's "Appearance Culture".
The other lead actress Margaret Qualley, is absolutely gorgeous IMO. And she too gave a heckuva performance.
A word of caution: I suggest not to be eating while watching this movie. Particularly after halfway mark. 😳 You've been warned...
