WE LIKE TO WATCH: EPISODE FORTY FIVE - ALIEN: COVENANT

-


Episode 45! Stu and Billy are out in the far reaches of space this week as they watch Alien: Covenant!

Directed by Ridley Scott (Blade Runner, Alien, Kingdom of Heaven), Alien: Covenant is a sequel to to the 2012 film Prometheus and the second instalment in the Alien prequel series. It is also the sixth film in the overall Alien film franchise.
Set in 2104, the crew of the colony ship Covenant is bound for a remote planet Origae-6 with two thousand colonists and a thousand embryos aboard. 

 The crew of the ship are awakened by an energy surge in space and discover via a mysterious signal what they think to be an uncharted paradise planet. The mysterious world soon turns dark when a hostile alien life-form forces the crew into a fight for survival.

The film stars Michael Fassbender, Katherine Waterston, Danny McBride, Billy Crudup, Demian Bichir, Jussie, Smollett, Carmen Ejogo, and many others.

We do provide a spoiler warning when we start to go into a more in depth analysis of the film.

 As well as the films, Stu and I discuss what else we've been watching this week, and look over the latest in movie news.

As always it would make our day if you could take a couple of minutes to rate and reviews us on iTunes or drop us some feedback below! Really keen to have your input in the show.

Enjoy!

It is so satisfying to witness that the actress who gave us the utterly original and terrifying, Tracy Flick, has still so many more surprises for us. That super sharp, full of intensity, scarily Machiavellian high-school girl (perhaps sociopath) promised an actress who does not hold back. Reese commits fully and with real vigour and we have seen this over and over again in roles like Legally Blonde  (the original is still so fun), Walk the line , Vanity Fair and more. Recently the critically-acclaimed and Emmy award winning TV series Big Little Lies which is sensational, as well as her role in it. In Home Again Reese has returned to the romantic comedy genre which she has championed in her career many times and sadly, to some questionable results. I know Sweet Home Alabama  is a favourite among many but sadly it did not ignite me. I am quite fond of Just Like heaven  with Mark Ruffalo (don’t judge) which I

Today I have the pleasure of speaking to writer Tom Taylor and artist James Brouwer, creators of my favourite book of recent time , The Deep: Here be Dragons.  In case you haven't heard, The Deep: Here be Dragons is the Aurealis award winning graphic novel from Aussie duo, Tom Taylor and James Brouwer, and the patriotic streak doesn't end there. This book is beautifully presented by the good folks at the independent Aussie comics company, Gestalt.
