24 Plays6 days ago

This week on The Popcorn Podcast, Tommy and Ryan dive deep into the terrifying return of the Xenomorph with Alien: Earth Episodes 1 & 2.

From its chilling atmosphere to the grounded human drama at the core, we explore how this new chapter in the Alien saga sets the stage for a gripping, modern reinvention while staying true to the franchise’s horror roots. We break down the show’s world-building, the evolving threat of the Xenomorph, and the character dynamics that drive the tension forward.

Alien: Earth
In this episode, we unpack how the series balances claustrophobic horror with large-scale storytelling, the way fear and survival shape its characters, and what these first episodes might signal for the season ahead.

Episode Highlights:
👽 The Xenomorph’s Return: How the creature is reimagined for a new era.
🌍 World-Building on Earth: Expanding the Alien mythology beyond space.
🎭 Human Survival: Performances that ground the terror in raw emotion.
⚡ Tension & Atmosphere: How pacing and visuals keep dread at the forefront.
🔮 Looking Ahead: Theories on where the story could go next.

tommy cresta
But you really like that... What?
00:15:45
Ryan
what
00:15:46
tommy cresta
Actually, I don't want to Don't tell me where you rank this because we're doing at the end of the series. Yeah.
00:15:49
Ryan
Yeah.
00:15:49
tommy cresta
um But yeah, episode one.
00:15:50
Ryan
Finally.
00:15:51
tommy cresta
What?
00:15:51
Ryan
Finally.
00:15:52
tommy cresta
Finally. I've been saying this for a while.
00:15:53
Ryan
I'm saying it from Bob. But episode one, the spaceship cracks on her brother.
00:15:54
tommy cresta
But episode one, Neverland. When a spaceship crash lands on Earth, a sister searches for her brother amidst an unexpected alien threat.
00:15:59
Ryan
it's written and directed by Holly, the creator of the series.
00:16:00
tommy cresta
This episode was written and directed by Noah Hawley, the creator of the series.
00:16:05
tommy cresta
But yeah, get is jumping right into this, I think that the show did a great job of completely changing what I thought this series was going to be.
00:16:05
Ryan
But yeah, it's jumping out of the universe.
00:16:07
Ryan
I think the show did a great job of completely changing what I thought the series was going to be. Completely fucking on its head.
00:16:14
tommy cresta
Completely flipping on its head. And it definitely leans into how he is as a writer, especially if you've seen the Fargo series, which Noah Hawley has worked on his entire career.
00:16:15
Ryan
And it definitely... leans into how he's an AZA writer, especially if you've seen the Barbie series, which has worked on his entire career.
00:16:26
tommy cresta
And it's definitely serious like Alien is, but it has those moments where you're like, what the fuck is this?
00:16:26
Ryan
And it's definitely serious, like it only is, but it has those moments where you're what the fuck is this? But at the same time, seeing the practical sense, and hearing the best, and we'll talk about how immersive everything is, and you can
00:16:33
tommy cresta
But at the same time, seeing the practical sets and hearing in the cast and everyone talk about how immersive everything is that they're working on as is really cool to see.

00:17:45
tommy cresta
The scene with the cat was kind of sad, though.
00:17:47
Ryan
I thought it was awesome.
00:17:47
tommy cresta
so The poor cat. it really cool
00:17:49
Ryan
That was one of the coolest scenes of the show for me.
00:17:51
tommy cresta
Yeah, it was really cool.
00:17:51
Ryan
Yeah, well...
00:17:52
tommy cresta
seen how Yeah.
00:17:52
Ryan
Seeing how it worked just takes over your mind or body.
00:17:53
tommy cresta
don't like bugs, though.
00:17:55
Ryan
That's awesome.
00:17:56
tommy cresta
You don't fuck with bugs.
00:17:57
Ryan
It's very cool. The slugs are gross, though.
00:17:59
tommy cresta
you don't like bugs though
00:17:59
Ryan
You I don't like bugs.
00:18:01
tommy cresta
like but you don't fuckle bug
00:18:02
Ryan
I don't fuck with bugs. No, I don't know.
00:18:03
tommy cresta
So what do you think happens with those? So like they suck the blood, they get big.
00:18:06
tommy cresta
i so Do they get bigger?
00:18:06
Ryan
I think it's like big...
00:18:09
tommy cresta
Like will those things get huge?
00:18:09
Ryan
No, I think...
00:18:11
Ryan
I don't think so.
00:18:11
tommy cresta
don't think so.
00:18:11
Ryan
I think they got as big as we see them get and then they kind of just fall off and roll around.
00:18:11
tommy cresta
I think they got we see them get and then kind of just fall off roll around. Then what happens? They just go back to normal size again?
00:18:18
Ryan
They probably just digest all the blood and look for more. It's like a mosquito.
00:18:22
tommy cresta
Yeah, for more. Ew. That's nasty as hell.
00:18:24
Ryan
Yeah. I hate mosquitoes.
00:18:26
tommy cresta
Yeah. I hate mosquitoes. What a shit creature. Um... But yeah, I'll give for the acting performances so far, Sydney Chandler, she is playing 10-year-old girl in an adult body extremely well.
00:18:31
Ryan
But yeah, give you an action for us tomorrow. Sitting here, mosquito is playing a 10-year-old girl who's in a full body very well.
00:18:41
Ryan
Mm-hmm.
00:18:42
tommy cresta
And the fact that...
00:18:47
tommy cresta
I think just the way that she like...
00:18:47
Ryan
I think it's just the way it's like, we talked in the first game theater as an adult, right away from how he's like, he's still kid.
00:18:51
tommy cresta
We talked about the first time you see her as an adult, right away you can tell that she's like... It's still a kid. so
00:18:58
Ryan
Oh, yeah.
00:18:58
tommy cresta
And the way...
00:18:58
Ryan
And the way, we kind of, at least I do, oh, God, we're going to be like super soldiers.
00:18:59
tommy cresta
We kind of got nervous, I think. At least i did when like I realized what they were going with. i was like, oh, God, are they just going to go in here and be like super soldiers?
00:19:07
Ryan
But it doesn't seem like an adult.
00:19:07
tommy cresta
Which could still happen. But it doesn't seem like they're going that route at all.
00:19:11
Ryan
Yeah, no. I think all of them do a good job.
00:19:11
tommy cresta
I think all of them do a good job.
00:19:12
Ryan
All the adult actors do a good job of having that like childlike look in their eyes, if that makes sense.
00:19:13
tommy cresta
All the adult actors do a good job of having that childlike look in their eyes, that makes yeah You know what mean?
00:19:18
Ryan
You know what and I mean? like They look fucking clueless.
00:19:19
tommy cresta
Like, they look fucking clued. They look like stupid kids.
00:19:20
Ryan
They look like stupid kids.
00:19:21
tommy cresta
They're in adult bodies that like, on the town.
00:19:21
Ryan
They're just in adult bodies that can you know lift 100 pounds.
00:19:25
tommy cresta
When they put the... When they covered up the eye and then he put the the microscope on top it, which did nothing.
00:19:27
Ryan
they talk Oh, yeah.
00:19:33
Ryan
Yeah, yeah.
00:19:34
tommy cresta
Typically, All fan as a synthetic was a really good casting.
00:19:34
Ryan
the
00:19:37
tommy cresta
He just has here's nothing behind those eyes.
00:19:38
Ryan
Yeah, he's just soulless. Yeah.
00:19:42
tommy cresta
But yeah, i'm i'm real I am excited to see where more of this show goes.
00:19:42
Ryan
Yeah.
00:19:45
tommy cresta
And I think it's going to be cool to see how...
00:19:47
Ryan
it's good
00:19:51
tommy cresta
What happened that these kind of synthetic human crossovers aren't a thing in the later...
00:19:51
Ryan
what
00:19:57
tommy cresta
era.
00:19:58
Ryan
yeah
00:19:58
tommy cresta
Like, why aren't these around me anymore?
00:20:01
Ryan
Yeah, maybe i mean maybe they just got bought out or something.
00:20:01
tommy cresta
Yeah. Or they all die. Alex Lawther playing Hermit.
00:20:05
Ryan
or like Like we said earlier, maybe obviously we don't know, but maybe the kid dies.
00:20:08
tommy cresta
maybe
00:20:10
Ryan
like The guy who made them dies and can't make any more.
00:20:10
tommy cresta
yeah but they all die
00:20:14
Ryan
Yeah, they're all going to die. That would make sense. Or they just get shot off into space.
00:20:18
tommy cresta
good shot
00:20:20
Ryan
Like, what we what are we doing now?
00:20:22
tommy cresta
alex law playing hermit
00:20:22
Ryan
Alex Walters is playing. He's also a guy who's an android.
00:20:25
tommy cresta
um he's also really good. I love him in Andor.
00:20:27
Ryan
He's person who's in the fucking world.
00:20:28
tommy cresta
I love him in Worst Person in the Fucking World. he is He's just a really good actor, and I like him in this role. he's They always need someone, especially in the Alien movies, that's like the smart person that knows something's wrong, and it's like, hey, we need to like not be here.
00:20:33
Ryan
he's smart and those fucking rules like hey normal fucking dude yeah here
00:20:43
tommy cresta
And he's like, hey, there's there's like an alien here. And the kid's like, there's a bear. And he's like, that's not it's not a bear.
00:20:49
Ryan
it's not fair can't blame the kids though if you've only been on earth your whole life and you're like
00:20:51
tommy cresta
No. If you've only been on Earth your whole life, and you're like, There's a bunch of dead people on the ceiling.
00:20:55
Ryan
There's a bunch of dead people on the ceiling. You're like, oh, that's a bear.
00:20:57
tommy cresta
You're like, oh, that's a bear.
00:20:58
Ryan
It has to be. Yeah.
00:20:59
tommy cresta
And then you actually see what it is.
00:21:01
Ryan
Yeah.
00:21:02
tommy cresta
Xenomorph design, though? 10 out of 10.
00:21:05
Ryan
Yeah, look cool.
00:21:05
tommy cresta
so Really good. I was really nervous that, like, because sometimes they have some time taking a little bit of liberties in how they look.
00:21:08
Ryan
some go on
00:21:11
tommy cresta
Like, the ones in Covenant, I know they're not xenomorphs fully. Like, they're, like, Antimor...
00:21:14
Ryan
Which is fucking stupid.
00:21:15
tommy cresta
Yeah, there's, like, different versions of them.
00:21:16
Ryan
Yeah.
00:21:18
tommy cresta
And I'm okay with having, like, different breeds of them.
00:21:18
Ryan
Yeah.
00:21:22
tommy cresta
But I like the basic ones.
00:21:24
Ryan
yeah
00:21:24
tommy cresta
Like, I do like the one that has like, the back things on them.
00:21:24
Ryan
i do
00:21:27
tommy cresta
The one...
00:21:27
Ryan
Like the classic is good.
00:21:28
tommy cresta
The classic. Yeah, the classic's the best one.
00:21:29
Ryan
Yeah, the classic is less small.
00:21:30
tommy cresta
And it's cool to see that one, even though this one's a little shorter.
00:21:31
Ryan
Yeah. And it's cool to see that. Yeah, it looked a little smaller, but it could have been like a, I don't know.
00:21:33
tommy cresta
Yeah, it looks a little Yeah. Yeah, might not be fully grown, but I don't know how fast...
00:21:37
Ryan
Well, they grow fast as shit.
00:21:38
tommy cresta
They grow They grow faster. Yeah, faster than normal.
00:21:40
Ryan
It's not going to be, yeah. yeah
00:21:41
tommy cresta
But yeah, so... that there There were some really creepy-ass scenes in this, though.
00:21:43
Ryan
Yeah.
00:21:45
tommy cresta
like Like, fear for me, like, alien fear.
00:21:47
Ryan
here
00:21:49
tommy cresta
Like, when he's looking up in the scene, I just thought about playing Alien in Isolation.
00:21:52
Ryan
Yeah.
00:21:52
tommy cresta
was like, it's just like a vent. Yeah.
00:21:53
Ryan
I gotta play that. Yeah.
00:21:54
tommy cresta
was like, don't walk past it.
00:21:54
Ryan
Yeah. Yeah.
00:21:56
tommy cresta
But yeah, I'm... And they had a couple of shots where like it's in the background.
00:21:58
Ryan
and they
00:22:01
Ryan
yeah
00:22:01
tommy cresta
There's some cool stuff like that. we All three of us, Connor watched it with us.
00:22:03
Ryan
we
00:22:06
tommy cresta
ah The air shot out of a valve.
00:22:08
Ryan
how
00:22:09
tommy cresta
In the background, we were like, oh.
00:22:10
Ryan
oh
00:22:11
tommy cresta
I'm like, oh, never mind. Just just air.
00:22:12
Ryan
yeah
00:22:14
tommy cresta
But yeah, i i was I was very happy with the first two episodes.
00:22:14
Ryan
yeah a
00:22:17
tommy cresta
And I mean, it seems like this show, and then after I make this, want to hear more of your thoughts. But they um it seems like this show is going to move at a breakneck pace.
00:22:22
Ryan
but they are, it's like,
00:22:26
tommy cresta
like This is one story and it's going to be quick.
00:22:27
Ryan
yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm sure.
00:22:30
tommy cresta
yeah But I guess it has to be.
00:22:32
Ryan
Yeah, I think so.
00:22:32
tommy cresta
Yeah, i think so.
00:22:33
Ryan
Just cause it's a limited series and there's just, it's just the one season.
00:22:33
tommy cresta
because it's a limited series. It's just the one season.
00:22:36
Ryan
I feel like ah you, you were you were saying not on here yet, but you were saying it's probably going to take place in the, just in the ship.
00:22:36
tommy cresta
I feel like you were saying, not on here yet, but you were saying it's probably going to take place just in the ship. I think that could happen.
00:22:43
Ryan
I think that could happen, but also there was, there were trailer shots of like the alien in like a cave somewhere.
00:22:44
tommy cresta
But also, there was the were trailer shots of the alien and the king.
00:22:49
Ryan
Right.
00:22:49
tommy cresta
I think they're going to end back up on Neverland. The island. Yeah.
00:22:53
Ryan
Yeah, yeah, something like that.
00:22:54
tommy cresta
I think they're going to collect. I think we might see them collect them in either this tomorrow's episode or the day after.
00:22:55
Ryan
Collect them. and
00:22:59
Ryan
Yeah, because if it was just on the ship, it's like you called it alien earth to just have it in the spaceship.
00:22:59
tommy cresta
Yeah. Because if it was just on a ship, it's like, you called it Alien Earth, they had it in this space.
00:23:05
Ryan
That was fun.
00:23:05
tommy cresta
Yeah, and we see the scene where the soldiers come out of the water.
00:23:06
Ryan
Yeah, yeah.
00:23:07
tommy cresta
Yeah.
00:23:07
Ryan
Yeah. Yeah.
00:23:08
tommy cresta
So I think we are going see them go back, which is why I think, um I think it's going really cool and we're seeing an alien like out in like, especially and like a tropical kind of setting like that.
00:23:10
Ryan
what
00:23:12
Ryan
i
00:23:15
Ryan
special like yeah
00:23:19
tommy cresta
There's, i feel like it opens up what you can do with the characters.
00:23:21
Ryan
It would be cool. Or if they got out and you just see the alien hunting a bear and the kid's like, oh, it's not a bear.
00:23:22
tommy cresta
if they got out, you see the alien hunting a bear. it's not a bear. That's not a bear. And we saw, what, there's five eggs out right now that they're going to look at
00:23:32
Ryan
Yeah.
00:23:32
tommy cresta
Yeah.
00:23:33
Ryan
Yeah.
00:23:33
tommy cresta
Yeah.
00:23:33
Ryan
And then the one kid got tackled.
00:23:33
tommy cresta
And then the kicker. Exactly. Yeah.
00:23:37
Ryan
Yeah.
00:23:38
tommy cresta
Hermit, the brother.
00:23:39
Ryan
Yeah. The brother.
00:23:39
tommy cresta
The brother.
00:23:41
Ryan
um Yeah.
00:23:42
tommy cresta
Yeah.
00:23:44
Ryan
and The show's been good.
00:23:44
tommy cresta
The show's been good.
00:23:44
Ryan
Like you said, the first two episodes were really good.
00:23:44
tommy cresta
Like you said, the first two episodes were really good.
00:23:46
Ryan
i
00:23:46
tommy cresta
I'm anticipating the next couple just to see if the show can keep up with how good it was.
00:23:48
Ryan
anticipating the next couple just to see if the show can keep up with how good it was. But i will say that I'm not like, i don't think i love them as much as you did.
00:23:53
tommy cresta
But will say, though, I don't think I loved them as much as you did.
00:23:57
Ryan
I still really enjoyed them.
00:23:57
tommy cresta
I still really enjoyed them.
00:23:58
Ryan
Thought it was fun, but I thought there were some points that is like a little over the top.
00:23:58
tommy cresta
thought it was fun. thought there were some points that were a little over the top.
00:24:03
Ryan
I kind of wish,
00:24:03
tommy cresta
I kind of wish...
00:24:05
Ryan
As much as I like seeing Xenomorph just fuck people up, I kind of wish there was more, like, suspense with it.
00:24:05
tommy cresta
As much as I like seeing Xenomorph just fuck people up, I kind of wish there was more suspense with it.
00:24:10
Ryan
It kind of just gets out and immediately starts fucking people up.
00:24:10
tommy cresta
It kind of just gets out and immediately starts fucking people up.
00:24:14
Ryan
And it's very cool, and it is scary just watching it run through people.
00:24:14
tommy cresta
It's very cool, and it is scary, just watching it run through people.
00:24:18
Ryan
But I wish there was some more build-up.
00:24:18
tommy cresta
But I wish there was some more build-up.
00:24:20
Ryan
Like, you know, the classic, it's like hunting them through the fucking vents and shit.
00:24:20
tommy cresta
Like, you know, classic. It's like humping them. Which maybe we'll get more...
00:24:23
Ryan
They don't know where it is. Yeah.
00:24:24
tommy cresta
I feel like maybe we'll get more of that in Neverland.
00:24:26
Ryan
Yeah.
00:24:27
tommy cresta
And maybe that was the point of these first shots was to be like, hey, like, the Xenomorph's out. like And you can say, like, it's a preview, so it's just, like, scary offensive.
00:24:31
Ryan
Yeah, and you could say like it's it's a creature, so it's just like scared and getting defensive. But like the coolest shot of the show was probably it standing on the statue when they're knocking on the dude's door.
00:24:36
tommy cresta
But, like, the coolest shot of the show was probably it standing on the statue. It's the creepiest scene of the...
00:24:42
Ryan
You can see the back of the head sticking out, and then it just turns.
00:24:42
tommy cresta
You can see the of the stick now, and then it just turns.
00:24:44
Ryan
that was That was the best part, because that was like classic.
00:24:44
tommy cresta
was That was the best part. And then it did the mouth attack, which, of course, is so iconic to everyone.
00:24:48
Ryan
Yeah. It was super, super cool. um
00:24:50
tommy cresta
I liked when it was up on the... When a kid... When he's... Hermit's like walking around looking for it in and it's up on the thing.
00:24:54
Ryan
Yeah, when he's clearing it, you can see it up top.
00:24:56
tommy cresta
Like, huh I just like when that, I do agree with you that my two biggest, I think complaints, cause I don't think it's as good as IGN said the first two episodes were.
00:24:57
Ryan
Yeah. i
00:25:01
Ryan
No, they gave it a 9, didn't they? Yeah, it's an 80-something.
00:25:06
tommy cresta
Yeah. like I don't give it, like, I think it's 80.
00:25:06
Ryan
Yeah. Probably, like, get people into it.
00:25:08
tommy cresta
Yeah. yeah I don't want to give it 70. Um,
00:25:11
Ryan
Yeah.
00:25:11
tommy cresta
um But i i won I would like to see, and I think maybe that is what their thing was.
00:25:12
Ryan
Yeah, we're going to watch, dude, it's going to be...
00:25:16
tommy cresta
Like, hey, let's go out the gate running. Like, show the Xenomorph 4 effect, and then capture it, slow it down little bit, and then we'll go back to the start.
00:25:19
Ryan
yeah probably like get people into
00:25:24
tommy cresta
Because then, I mean, there's so many characters at this point.
00:25:27
Ryan
yeah it's
00:25:27
tommy cresta
It's going to get slimmed down.
00:25:29
Ryan
yeah we're gonna watch too it's gonna be
00:25:31
tommy cresta
This next episode, I have a feeling people are going to start dropping.
00:25:34
Ryan
Yeah. Yeah.
00:25:34
tommy cresta
The first time of these kids dies, going to be like, fuck. They're going start ripping people.
00:25:38
Ryan
like i wonder if they have the um
00:25:40
tommy cresta
wonder if they have, know,
00:25:42
Ryan
i mean they must be able to like kind of repair themselves like some of the
00:25:42
tommy cresta
mean, they must repair themselves.
00:25:46
Ryan
synthetics can
00:25:47
tommy cresta
Yeah, but because it is cool seeing a cyborg, though.
00:25:47
Ryan
yeah
00:25:50
tommy cresta
Because I don't think we've seen a cyborg yet.
00:25:52
Ryan
yeah i didn't know there word cybors i didn't
00:25:52
tommy cresta
Yeah, know they were cyborg.
00:25:54
Ryan
cool that guy was really cool
00:25:54
tommy cresta
cool. That guy was really cool. Yeah, I like him, but he but he is a wailing Yutani through and through.
00:25:56
Ryan
yeah i he business
00:26:00
Ryan
Oh, yeah. He's not a good guy at all, but really cool.
00:26:03
tommy cresta
He was cool, though. That scene when he um he's like, I'm not what you should fear, that was probably actually my favorite scene.
00:26:07
Ryan
Yeah. Yeah.
00:26:09
tommy cresta
Yeah. When it just jumps out and just rips everyone to shreds.
00:26:10
Ryan
so you yeah just turns He just He's just meat. Yeah.
00:26:17
tommy cresta
But yeah, so I mean, this show definitely has its problems, though.
00:26:17
Ryan
Yeah. Yeah. I wish.
00:26:20
tommy cresta
like like it But the problems are, is i like, it's a lot of Xenomorph.
00:26:20
Ryan
Hmm. problem <unk> a lot
00:26:25
tommy cresta
like it's
00:26:25
Ryan
yeah
00:26:26
tommy cresta
And what if you like the slow, it's hunting.
00:26:26
Ryan
i wish
00:26:28
Ryan
it's
00:26:29
tommy cresta
it's
00:26:29
Ryan
Yeah.
00:26:30
tommy cresta
But what you just said, though.
00:26:30
Ryan
but And it's also just a little bit of getting over what the plot is.
00:26:31
tommy cresta
It's also just little bit of getting over what the plot is. Because I tried to explain it to somebody.
00:26:35
Ryan
Because I tried to explain it to somebody. He was like, yeah, he was like, any good shows to watch?
00:26:37
tommy cresta
And it sounds wild. Yeah, he was like, I had a good show to watch.
00:26:39
Ryan
I was like, Alien Earth's coming out.
00:26:39
tommy cresta
I was like, Alien Earth's coming out.
00:26:42
Ryan
was pretty good.
00:26:42
tommy cresta
pretty good.
00:26:42
Ryan
But I got to tell you, it's about...
00:26:42
tommy cresta
I gotta tell you, it's about...
00:26:44
tommy cresta
I wouldn't even tell them. just I would just say, like, scene it works out.
00:26:44
Ryan
i
00:26:45
Ryan
yeah How do you say...
00:26:47
tommy cresta
Yeah, how do you say it's like, it's terminally ill kids who get put in adult robot bodies and they have to hunt?
00:26:47
Ryan
Yeah, how do you say it's like, it's terminally ill kids who get put in adult robot bodies and they have to hunt. It's like, well, I'm not going to watch that.
00:26:53
tommy cresta
It's like, no, I'm going watch that.
00:26:56
tommy cresta
Yeah. feel like if you're going to tell someone lot, just say, like, it's just aliens.
00:26:56
Ryan
You know what I mean?
00:26:57
Ryan
It sounds goofy.
00:27:00
tommy cresta
But it's a TV show version of it.
00:27:00
Ryan
It's alien. Yeah. And it is good.
00:27:02
tommy cresta
But, like...
00:27:03
Ryan
As strange as it sounds, it has been good.
00:27:03
tommy cresta
And it, like, it makes sense.
00:27:05
Ryan
And it, like, it makes sense. Because if you think of it from, like, a PR sense, you're...
00:27:09
tommy cresta
Because if you think of it, like, VR sense, you're...
00:27:12
Ryan
If you're out there saving children, people are going to be like, oh, my God, that's great.
00:27:12
tommy cresta
If you're out there saving children, people are going be like, oh my god, that's great.
00:27:15
Ryan
Take some more money.
00:27:15
tommy cresta
They can't earn money.
00:27:16
Ryan
So that that's that makes sense.
00:27:16
tommy cresta
So that makes sense.
00:27:18
Ryan
I just...
00:27:18
tommy cresta
I just, I wish there was some explanation for why they're sending them in to fucking...
00:27:19
Ryan
I wish there was some explanation for why they're sending them in to fucking... Well, it's because she wants to go.
00:27:23
tommy cresta
Well, i it's because she wants to go, and he...
00:27:26
Ryan
Yeah, it's because she wants to go.
00:27:26
tommy cresta
Yeah, it's because she wants to go.
00:27:27
Ryan
But there was no...
00:27:27
tommy cresta
There was no... I don't think they're like trained or anything, because they all look just as shocked to go.
00:27:30
Ryan
um click who Yeah, they said there was some sort of training going on, but I forget.
00:27:33
tommy cresta
Yeah, they said there was some sort of training going on, but I forget.
00:27:35
Ryan
I think it was just teaching.
00:27:35
tommy cresta
I think it was just... I don't think they've... Yeah, but don't think they've went yet, the littlest kids.
00:27:38
Ryan
Yeah. I think they said they were just beginning because the whole thing was that he said, he said like, my curse is that I'm so smart.
00:27:40
tommy cresta
I think they said they were just beginning. Because the whole thing was that he said, he said, like, my person, I'm so smart, I can't have a conversation somebody.
00:27:45
Ryan
I can't have a conversation with somebody. And he said like, he is a dick.
00:27:48
tommy cresta
And he said, like, he's such a dick.
00:27:50
Ryan
He said he hired like the best geniuses money can buy to teach these kids that hopefully they can have a conversation, interesting conversation with them.
00:27:50
tommy cresta
He said he hired, like, the best geniuses might be by to teach these kids that hopefully they can have a conversation, interesting conversation with him.
00:27:57
Ryan
Yeah.
00:27:57
tommy cresta
Yeah, that one blows brains up.
00:27:57
Ryan
but I don't think, yeah, I never, maybe I just just went over my head, but I didn't hear anything about, like, learning how to fucking do search and rescue or hunt aliens.
00:27:59
tommy cresta
Yeah, I never, maybe I just, just went over my head, but I didn't hear anything about, like, learning how to fucking do search and rescue or hunt for Yeah, I think only he, maybe Wendy, because she mean she had a sword, so she must have something that she knows.
00:28:07
Ryan
Yeah. And then... Maybe. She just found the sword. I don't know.
00:28:13
tommy cresta
Yeah, where'd she?
00:28:13
Ryan
yeah I don't know where the hell she got that sword.
00:28:15
tommy cresta
But none of them had any weapons, right? Like, they all were just walking in there.
00:28:17
Ryan
Yeah, no, they just got, they are weapons, really, but...
00:28:19
tommy cresta
Yeah. i mean to I mean, there must be some something.
00:28:20
Ryan
Yeah.
00:28:22
tommy cresta
I mean, these are the first two episodes. Maybe that's the point for us to be blind at this point.
00:28:25
Ryan
Yeah.
00:28:25
tommy cresta
Yeah.
00:28:27
tommy cresta
But that would be terrible PR you're like, you know, we saved these kids, and then we sent them into a war zone. Like, well, hold on.
00:28:27
Ryan
But that would be terrible PR if you're like, yeah, we saved these kids and then we sent them into a war zone.
00:28:32
Ryan
We're like, well, hold on Give us our money back, asshole.

tommy cresta
So it's cool seeing like you know, Earth, like you said, Ice Age, like, you say Ice Age is camp, it's like, yeah, this is Earth.
00:30:09
Ryan
It's like, yeah, it's, this is earth. This is our earth.

00:30:21

00:30:25
tommy cresta
Because you think about it, like, yeah, this is Earth, so all that shit happens.
00:30:28

tommy cresta
Covenant's a more entertaining movie.
00:37:51
Ryan

00:37:51
tommy cresta
I think Prometheus is a better made movie.
00:37:53
Ryan
Or the...
00:37:53
tommy cresta
It's dumbest scene in Prometheus though is when the guy's like, oh, hey, little guy to the snake thing.
00:37:56
Ryan
guys
00:37:59
Ryan
Oh, he tries petting it.
00:37:59
tommy cresta
Oh, he tries to...
00:38:01
Ryan
And he's like, although I will say when it wraps around him, just snaps his arm.
00:38:01
tommy cresta
That dude guy... Also, will when it wraps around, just snaps his arm out.
00:38:04
Ryan

tommy cresta
That's the biggest thing about Covenant.
00:38:09

00:38:11
Ryan
The CGI is not awful, but there is some bad CGI.
00:38:11
tommy cresta
There's a lot of CGI in it. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
00:38:14
Ryan
Like when it bites that one girl's neck in the cave, it doesn't look great.
00:38:14
tommy cresta
Oh, yeah. That's the when they're in the and the ship goes.
00:38:17

00:38:21

The worst titled movie and probably the worst acted and written movie.
00:47:17

I'm pumped.
00:47:17
tommy cresta
The first one's actually not horrible.
00:47:21
tommy cresta
I can't remember if it was the first one.
00:47:21
Ryan
The first one's in like the pyramids or or Antarctica. And then the second one's in just like a town that gets glassed. It's cool.
00:47:30
tommy cresta

00:47:31
Ryan
Yeah.
00:47:31

00:47:32
tommy cresta

00:47:33
Ryan
one
00:47:37
tommy cresta
But yeah.
00:47:37

00:47:39
tommy cresta
think i'll always alien
00:47:43
Ryan
Respectfully.
00:47:44
tommy cresta

Yeah.
00:47:46
tommy cresta
Like see if they get bigger and stuff.
00:47:46
Ryan
Yeah. maybe
00:47:48
tommy cresta
I'm excited to see what the plant thing does. Like, does it shoot acid?
00:47:50
Ryan
Yeah. Maybe. Maybe he just grabs him. Just brings him up.
00:47:55
tommy cresta
Oh, just smashes them inside of its mouth.
00:47:56
Ryan
Yeah. That'd be cool.
00:47:58
tommy cresta
Ew. They're like, yeah, now you're going to get a couple episodes of these other things.
00:47:59
Ryan
Yeah, we'll see. Because I feel like that could be a reason they let the Xenomorph go fucking hog wild in the first two episodes.
00:48:04
tommy cresta
And then the Xenomorph's going to, like, disappear.
00:48:05
Ryan
To just be like, alright, you guys got your Xenomorph time. yeah knowll You'll see more later, but we're going to focus on some new ones now.
00:48:09

00:48:12
Ryan
Yeah. Yeah. They get annihilated.
00:48:14
tommy cresta
and you thought and then the xenno was gonna like disappear
00:48:16
Ryan
No.
00:48:17
tommy cresta
Oh, and then they might send Weyland-Yutani might send the soldiers in, and that's what we see in the trailer, and they might try and get the xenomorph back, and then the eggs open up, and now we got xenomorphs.
00:48:20
Ryan
so yeah which like they get annihilated yeah Yeah. That'd be cool.
00:48:30
tommy cresta
Fuck. There's going to be six xenomorphs at once, probably, just walking around,
00:48:33

00:48:39
