I think for me it’s alien: covenant. I was really interested in the ideas explored in prometheus and covenant just expanded on them. I don’t get much into the details of why it is or isn’t a good movie.

Luckily, though, HBO ran raised by wolves which really delved into ideals about AI and planet seeding etc. So that itch got way scratched even if the run was cut short.

    Not sure if this is what you are asking for, but:

    My favorite movies with absolutely ridiculus plots are:

    1. Olympus Has Fallen
    spoiler

    The USA is under attack by a plane that somehow got in the borders without getting shot down, while enemy ground teams posing as tourists attacks the white house, while the plane above provides support. And the country behind it is… NORTH KOREA? 🤣

    1. London Has Fallen
    spoiler

    Similar to before but now its some middle eastern “terrorist” that wants to kill all world leaders, with some of the Queen’s Guard turning out to be terrorists? 🧐

    1. Moonfall
    spoiler

    The moon falls towards earth, because… Aliens… lol 🌚

      The best thing about London Has Fallen is when Gerard Butler has a conversation with a fellow Scot, and you can almost see his natural accent tearing a hole in his face to get out.

      The first one was violent fun though. Kind of 80s.
