Well, I had posted another poll asking which one people preferred between Alien Earth and Alien: Romulus and 96% of votes favored Alien: Romulus so I think it's safe to assume that Earth can't touch the films.
@Jonesy 😂 caught deadass. @Chris they’re definitely surprising. Wonder more aren’t voting? Poll is getting closer to 2,000 views. Curious how people rate Alien: Earth(not for me) against the film series.
Same here Jonesy, I haven't rewatched Alien Earth once yet, but I did put on Covenant and Romulus the other day. Trying to forget AE exists tbh 😂
I’m a huge fan of Covenant. Like that it’s getting some love.
Hi Sir Ridley. Welcome to the board. :p
Speaking of rewatch, I am surprised I haven't rewatched ALIEN EARTH at all. I don't hate the show but I just don't have the urge to rewatch it again. I instead rewatched ROMULUS a few times and quite enjoy it.
I’m a huge fan of Covenant. Like that it’s getting some love.
Agreed, I'm happy to see it getting so much love but I am genuinely surprised by these results.
Parents, in regards to their children, are a symbol of authority, restriction, and imposition. Their presence looms over their children. David has the intelligence of an adult (more-so), yet still remains a child or at the whim of his creator, has extreme feelings of resentment.

I'm sure the timeline can be preserved and expanded upon with what's been established. I'm personally not a fan of re-inventing new timelines to cop-out from maintaining a coherent story.
Covenant more rewatchable than Aliens? In what world...
Since sharing this poll across our social channels - a number of new votes have flooded in and at one point, ALIENS did overtake Covenant for the 2nd most re-watchable spot - but as time continues to go by, Covenant is receiving even MORE votes - maintaining its 2nd place position.
I remember the Alien: Engineers script! I really liked Jon Spaights original idea for the Alien prequel. I hope parts of it are recycled for future installments one day.
I'd put Romulus in 2nd or 3rd place. Convenant is probably my least favorite of the whole series and very hard to rewatch.
That's indeed a surprising result. Covenant at #2? Interesting. Each to their own, I'm just curious. Aside from stunning visual effects (particularly Lander 1's descent) and cinematography, I thought that the action scenes were too swift and half-heartedly done and the mid-act with David's philosophizing really slows the film down and shifts focus in a negative way, but that's just me. Alien Romulus is way more re-watchable despite feeling like the most lavish fan-film wrapped in Hollywood production I've ever seen.
I would rank Alien Covenant very low on that list
I find Romulus to be the most re-watchable.
Aliens for me. Then Alien then Covenant.
I was genuinely surprised to see Covenant ranked so highly on this survey. I feel like people have come around finally and want to see more of the prequel timeline explored.
Sarnoski neměl jediný dobrý film, špatná volba.. :(
I too am hoping this is complete or near? Any updates??
Fede doesn't want to direct, he said it's too soon and you can be sure the studio wants to do a Alien/Predator crossover now, because money. So no surprise he walked.
hopefully they will start pre-production this year, start filming next year and release the movie in 2028.
Where’s Fede? Thought he was going to direct the sequel. We need answers.
A Quiet Place Day One was great! This is a great choice.
I hope this is the last season of this insult to the Alien Franchise
I mean, they "could" potentially pivot and get the show back on track and more on-brand... but I have a sneaking suspension that won't happen.
How Alien Earth S2 is entering production before the new Alien movie blows my mind.
I hope this is the last season of this insult to the Alien Franchise
Executive producer announced they're on-location this weekend:
As of Friday, February 27th, 2026.
Holy! Nice catch!
Yea, I was so stoked when I realized.
Obviously whether it's good or not is completely subjective, but I do think it deserves a bit more credit, compared to what we've had since lol... I'd rewatch Prometheus over the entire season of Alien Earth any day of the week 😂
It doesn't mean that it's a good movie
I honestly thought the next alien movie would be a prequel/sequel to Covenant. I was really disappointed in Romulus as it was more of the same without being invested. I’m tired of people trying to re-imagine original films. After two movies worth of prequels, I really wanted to see what happened after David got on the colonizing ship.
I enjoyed season 1 can’t wait for season 2!
I'm hoping S2 rectifies some of S1's shortcomings and the Xenomorphs turn on the Lost Boys.
Well deserved! Should be #1!
I do!! I find it amazing that I thought this exact thing today, and looked it up to see if anyone else agreed, and the first place I find an answer is on our own website in a question from 14 years ago, lol.
Don Henley:
Ridley Scott:
Predator fans will be spared a Hawley adaptation at least that’s a positive.
RT giving out awards is a joke in itself.
I’d take the Romulus all day everyday over Alien: Earth.I’m partial to the films in the pathogen trilogy (Prometheus, Covenant, & Romulus). Earth ignores film canon. It’s just a Noah Hawley weirdo ego perv experiment.Predator should have had the live action series, especially if this was going to be the road for Alien.
