Let's be honest, the CGI Alien in that one scene in alien 3 looked better than the miniature adult chestburster in Covenant.

Because Ridley Scott is a loving hack.

It didn't look fake at all.

Don't even get me started on how fake the rubber xeno suits in Aliens looked at times.

I can't give Jack a lot, but I'll give it to him that shaving every hair off his head was, massively, the right decision.

Though I might cut him some more slack if he kept it, and I'd just assume he's simple.

I find it funny that people are getting all uptight about rape jokes in a thread about RLM. These guys literally got famous with the gimmick of a serial killing rapist reviewing movies.

plinkett was kind of a product of nerd stereotypes of the time, where nerds were creepy basement dwellers
and unlike many rape joke tellers the joke isn't that rape itself is funny but putting it in an absurd situation and making you laugh at something terrible. back when people knew how to tell an edgy joke and not just get millions of dollars for screaming about rape while playing video games.

nerd crew is kind of the more modern nerd review now that comic book movies make millions and we're surrounded by merch. like, there's still nerds so whiny and lovely that they can't make it in THIS society among "normies" but who even cares about them anymore, they aren't as fun to make fun of.

It's true. The Yoda puppet and horrible CGI Yoda from Phantom Menace are indistinguishable.

The CGI Alien could've looked like the realist thing ever, but I just love the suit work in these films and I find them impressive.

Even if a shot or two is iffy, overall I just love the way they light and shoot these rubber monsters to make them look interesting. Like you know how Diego Luna is obsessed with Jabba and touching his rubber skin? I'm like that but obsessed with bathing an Alien in dope lighting.

Help, I've turned into a manifestation of mental disorders as viewed through an early 20th century lens sparked by the disparity between man and modern society and I can't get up
video games as art, more like video games as fart

the only way to truly experience art is to read obscure ancient texts in their original language

The problem is that iconic "chestburster" scene was actually the sound engineers penis and no attempt has been made to recreate the prop since it would inevitably draw attention of the MPAA.

I've heard from everyone I know who saw this that when the mini-alien pops out there was always laughter at every showing.
