agreed! Alien: Romulus was a spectacular failure in my estimation, i was annoyed by virtually every scene by the end of it. for some reason, this is playing the same notes but in a different key

I enjoyed Romulus on the one viewing I gave it. May have been context, but passed the easy test for third place in Alien film lore. That said, these first two episodes offer some argument for belonging with the original two in terms of concept and execution.

And Olyphant’s delivery of “presents as flora but may be fauna” was all-time.
