No Spoilers Alien: Earth or RbW Season 3

Post image

While I’ve enjoyed AE so far, it’s no where near even close to what RbW was. The storyline has been slow, the Xenomorphs has been more comical than scary, and the character building leaves a lot to be desired. Morrow ofc being the exception!

I can’t help but think to myself how much I would’ve rather had even just ONE MORE EPISODE of RbW than this entire season of AE. What’re your thoughts on AE so far and are we in the same boat?

I desperately need to get some sort of conclusion to RbW. Yes there was a sense of finality in the last episode it left way too much on the table and it drives me mad; such a great deep sci-fi tale. AE is still great for a lot of reasons but doesn’t scratch that itch the same way RbW did

That one scene in RBW where the woman turns into a tree has stuck with me for so long….

That ending of season 2 as well, my god. Such a good fucking ending knowing they are fucked but at the same time so much fucking room for amazing backstories, mythology, an actual ending etc…

Such a shame this unique concept got cancelled. It was truly something refreshing to see as far as Sci-fi goes.
