Perfect. Thank you so much, Ridley Scott and crew!

Seems to me that most people on the internet will complain just to get other people to notice them. Perhaps they would like to try their own hands at legacy building? I don't think it's easy, but Ridley Scott and his crew and writers have surely saved this one, now for the ages, with "Covenant". I've been watching the Alien movies for years, big fan, and this was the best - visually, casting, acting, action/suspense, story-wise,horror-wise, with great nods to specific moments in its iconic past,and: thanks to Prometheus, which I now see was necessary to the franchise, it even asked and answered much larger and more difficult questions, such as: should we even be tampering with AI and genetics? Can anything good come from such hubris? And can mankind ever avoid its flaws/will we ever learn the golden rule to treat others as we would have them treat us? And with this story, such questions are actually passed down from species to species, from the architects --> us --> AI --> aliens; that's pretty cool in itself. Not a false note in the entire production, just awesome from start to finish, bravo big-time and much thanks to Ridley Scott for sticking to it and fleshing out his creation so incredibly well. I think this movie's impact, at least to this franchise, will be immeasurable as a result. And thank you most of all for getting it all back on track - I would like to pretend that AvP: Requiem never actually existed. In light of that studio fiasco, it's wonderful that so much effort was expended to get things right again. IMO, they succeeded beautifully, their money's worth is definitely on the screen. It was entertaining, harrowing, thought-provoking, visually immaculate, and answered pretty much all the nagging questions. The answers were quite gruesome and horrifying, though...totally glad I saw it on the big screen. Catch it before it's gone!
