Where did the aliens come from? Dracula's Space Castle.
I don't know if that's a satisfying answer.

Literally weaponized autism.
It never got either as good or as bad in parts as Prometheus did; overall, this was just okay and ultimately felt rushed and unnecessary. Whoever said it felt like an apology for Prometheus was right on the money. I did like the bleak note they ended it on, however.
And yeah, David impersonated Walter, but everyone saw that coming. And speaking of David, it's always a bummer when an ageless character is played by an actor who has very visibly aged since the last movie.
And lol at how lame that chestburster was.
Yeah, but they ate Earth wheat and not green alien space wheat or something?Quote:

Wasn't even a chestburster, I think they forgot that was a thing.
The aliens planted human life on earth, ok. The planet had vegetation already right? Did they go back and plant wheat later?
What was with that weird sub-plot about the captain's "faith" that went absolutely nowhere?
Yeah, it was like a mini Alien instead. And once it popped out he and David started doing Yoga together or some shit. Dumbest scene in the movie by far.Quote:

I think it was mentioned in passing literally twice, and it was more used to make him look odd more than anything. Like when he said, "They would never make me captain because they know I'm a man of faith and that I'll make crazy decisions" or whatever. It came across like one of the writers just threw a dart at a board of generic character traits and then forgot about it.Quote:

The couples weren't even goddamn established in the film! You'd have to read between the lines in one of those internet only yet essential to the plot trailer interstitial things to have a clue who was with who.
Awful awful trend, that bullshit.
I was pretty overjoyed that James Franco got torched and died before he even had a chance to legit appear in the film. Best cameo ever.
