Part 7/11:
They analyze Alien and how its sequels and spin-offs handle the lore. They criticize recent Alien entries like Romulus and Alien Earth for sacrificing story quality for aesthetics, lamenting the overuse of CGI. The idea of a full-scale Alien invasion of Earth is proposed as a more natural and exciting direction for future films, emphasizing the importance of escalation in storytelling.
Discussion then shifts to The Tomorrow War, which features aliens invading Earth and time travel, highlighting how quickly that film's premise was exhausted and its potential wasted. They reminisce about Extended Universe tales, like Alien Bug Hunt, where Earth is infested with xenomorph-style aliens used as bioweapons, a concept they find compelling.
