Theory After seeing Alien Romulus, everything else looks better to me

Even Intergalactic doesn't look that bad.

The ship looks kind of cool. The music sounds good.

Yeah she's kind of ugly but the only character I could tolerate in Romulus actually looked a bit like her, lol

The combat looks generic in it too but... meh. I probably won't play it.

It's just odd how that movie has recalibrated my brain and now everything else looks better by comparison. I don't even hate No Time To Die as much as I used to.

Watching mainstream-slop from current year makes the slop from 30-40 years ago look like masterpieces.

Yeah true.

It's strange how it's all relative.

I'm sure I could hypothetically see an even worse movie than Romulus (which could definitely be common in 5-10 years if we don't turn things around) which would make even that look alright.

To be honest in that trailer the way the red colours clash with everything else bothers me more than how she looks!

In a way I like how she looks because it's so masculine she might be an exception to me never playing games with female protagonists.

She's basically a guy lol

I think the original Alien is far, far better than Romulus. Aliens and Covenant are also very good IMO.

Romulus is Alien minus 20 IQ points, lol
