Cult Icon Posted August 29, 2024 Posted August 29, 2024 the actress from Alien Romulus actually looks a lot like Ellie from The last of Us. She would have been better than the GOT actress they used.   looking at the comic book adaptation of the unused Alien 3 script- it is clear now that prometheus was influenced by it- they were intending to expand the body horror of the alien franchise to integrate concepts from "The Thing".   I think this was a wrong move, and they lost the plot since Aliens was going in the Starship troopers direction. Certainly romolus did not need anything from prometheus.

I use related hashtags (I offer free content) but even when twitter was free I was only getting a few hundred impressions at best.   Quote

Haha I didn't thought about a Venom comparison but you're right.  I think in season 1 they even talked about Sauron being spiritual in his "natural form" but since you can't see a spirit let alone a spirit with no human shell I think they choosed this dark slimy mass primarily to show Sauron's story/journey somehow in pictures. It's a tv show afterall living from visuals.  I mean Sauron clearly sees himself as some sort of holy shiny bright saviour -implemented in the Annatar scene- but if we try to imagine something pure evil without any appealing form it's probably more like this black ugly repulsive mass!? "Guttering fetus" is one of the descriptions I read lol  I was like eeew when I saw it 🫣 Spoiler  Quite the opposite from when I see his "beautiful servant face" 😻  I think that is exactly the desired effect.
