'Alien: Romulus' with Fede Álvarez & more filmmakers | Academy Conversations

[@fettfan91]

This movie 100% deserves nominations for Production Design and Sound Editing.

[@TheProphegy]

Yeah that’s what I was thinking. I couldn’t see it for anything else but it nailed those two for sure!

[@Paiva-q1x]

True

[@coreyromberg]

It would be just Sound now. There is no longer a separate Mixing and Editing category. Which is a shame because they are two very different things!

[@ivancisco]

David Jonsson needs to be nominated for Andy. He did a great job

[@magicknight13]

Completely agreed!!! He has such a star factor I think

[@MiguelChamorro-v1k]

Awesome movie Fede Alvarez! Having seen all the films in the series, and after watching this film for me it is a SOLID 8 out of 10. It's not perfect, but it does the job well. It fulfills the goal of being an entertaining alien movie, and it achieves that EASILY. BTW it's looks great! it has an awesome cinematography. It should be seen on the largest screen possible with great speakers. And although some dispute the final part, that was the part that I liked the most since it is where Álvarez's touch is most visible. I want to see it again! Especially for THAT final part. Do more please!

[@emiliobello2538]

Hope it gets a nomination

[@ozmond]

Why would it get a nomination? It sucked

[@stewyyishim]

@@ozmond you do realize you can find positive elements in bad movies too right? no matter what you thought of it the cinematography, sound design, set design, and costumes were all amazingly well done

[@ozmond]

@@stewyyishim yeah, and this one failed in all of those departments

[@Denis-89]

Probably for visual effects. Maybe sound

[@TwenteeEight]

⁠@@ozmond I’m kinda fascinated by people who say this movie sucks and they point out…“callbacks” or “cringe moment”. Cinema Sins destroyed a lot of people’s ability to critique.

[@magicknight13]

I love this movie, I can't wait to get a physical copy! Excellent cast and I really enjoy Fede Alvarez's movies and can't wait to see what he will make next 😊

[@shemeshvii]

Best sound mixing Best Visual Effects Best lead male performance

[@Pepper_Graves]

Stayed till the end and it was fantastic! 💋💋

[@mariasolematta5046]

GUYSSSSS big big news: Fede Alvarez will be at @viewconference this October!! I’m sure he’ll discuss all these topics! There will be an opportunity to ask questions! I will be there! Fede Alvarez is one of my favorite directors!!! Can't wait!

[@GGSS13]

Alien series have been very consistent being nominated in the Visual Effects except for Covenant. So my bet is this movie will get nominated again and maybe including Sound

[@lunarcat632]

the animatronics, set design, & costumes were incredible, fully immersive

[@Mauidemigod249]

Real fantastic movie

[@callumheatherly]

This is my 4th favourite I like Ripley trilogy But i really enjoy this film. I had a few initial problems but the positive far outway the negatives and i can totally c what fede was trying to make. A film for us all and i really appreciated that. The film making is excellent so who ever says otherwise is in denial

[@swaranjalichougale8224]

Nominations, Alien Romulus deserves: Best Director ( Fede ) Best Actress ( Cailee ) Best Supporting Actor ( David ) Best Cinematography Best Movie

[@GGSS13]

More likely Visual Effects and Sound, alien series is very consistent in these categories.

[@00Mindi00]

We need to recognise David Jonsson's OUTSTANDING performance as Andy. David especially and Cailee RAN this movie.

[@ΓΕΏΡΓΙΟΣ-ι8ν]

What categories are in the best chance to nominated

[@johansermartinez9287]

I think cinematography, production design, supporting actor, possibly not best picture depends how the rest of the year is looking. Just my opinion

[@greggumz4]

@@johansermartinez9287Get Andy his Oscar

[@ΓΕΏΡΓΙΟΣ-ι8ν]

​@@johansermartinez9287the first two aliens films should had and maybe won but this is doubtful, but hey its big success and i can see this getting two or three btl nominees

[@johansermartinez9287]

@@ΓΕΏΡΓΙΟΣ-ι8ν I can see it winning production design. But probably not in the other categories. I think dune 2 will take most of the wins!

The Oscars Calling Fede Alvarez fresh out the Release 🔥

[@poraneenakpradab4002]

Very nice movie. I love Oscar & USA 🇺🇸

[@MRKYootube]

The movie was a near masterpiece, easily and by far the best sequel since James Cameron's Aliens.

[@JB95Official]

Hey Oscars! I will hope Mr. Wolf (from "The Bad Guys" and its upcoming sequel; voiced by Academy Award®-winner Sam Rockwell) and Ruby Gillman (from "Ruby Gillman Teenage Kraken" and its upcoming sequel; voiced by Lana Condor) will host to the 97th Oscars® after Jimmy Kimmel and John Mulaney both turned down hosting gig on the 97th Oscars®. We Support Mr. Wolf and Ruby Gillman for the 97th Oscars® hosts!!! Please, thanks!!!

[@thefamouspeopleus]

Very nice movie.

[@nyells888]

Thee Best Fuccn alien movie ever 👽

[@Callsign-Blade_RunnerSG]

The runtime for this movie should have been 2H 15 Mins. Alien Romulus is an Entertaining movie but felt very rush. No breathing space, so to speak.. It would be cool to see the characters plan their strategies to escape and have abit of a downtime.

[@yates525]

Funny I feel like it should’ve been 90 minutes and they should’ve cut the whole last part of the movie with the weird engineer/slender man thing. Also needed an android that wasn’t Ash and to cut the cheesy callback lines.

[@Paiva-q1x]

Good movie.

[@Tony-e4b1p]

Who’s idea was it for the android to take Ripley’s iconic line

[@NBC.SATURDAY.NIGHT.LIVE.]

It was my dog. She looked at me cross eyed and farted and in that moment I knew what she meant. I had to tell Fede to put that line in.

[@Tony-e4b1p]

Next Alien Alvarez film Alien "Homophobus"

[@MrMuis06]

If we had a better script, this could have been close to the classic movies. The movie was well directed and had great cinematography etc, but the script along with casting choices needed work.

[@TwenteeEight]

Not at all - it was a strong 8 out of 10 in a series plaged by 6s. A few callbacks don't ruin a movie, promise.

[@TheProphegy]

I’d give it a 7. I wish they kept a certain character in the shadows because the close ups in lighting was unpleasant. lol. Everything else looked great. Predictable film, almost video gamey at times, but was a good popcorn watch! There was two sequences that were fantastic,(locked in with huggers in the water and ship hitting the asteroid belt), both of which are briefly shown in the trailers.

[@ThEmAnOnAmIsSiOn100]

James Cameron took away everything that made the alien dangerous that Ridley Scott worked so hard for. They turned the Alien into a lesser version of itself that could be squished like an ant on a sidewalk

[@JoannReyes-u6z]

Gonzalez Jeffrey Williams Larry Smith Brenda

[@playermartin286]

How much nonsense did the studio force you to put in the movie Fede??

[@Shaki123]

This movie deserves NO Oscar since the terrible Ash CGI ruins the practical stuff.

[@Peanut10040]

There is nothing that could've been done better in Alien or Aliens. Those films are masterpieces, Romulus was not.

[@NBC.SATURDAY.NIGHT.LIVE.]

Ripley didn’t need to go with the marines on their mission in aliens lol

[@TaxemicFanatic]

Cameron turned the Alien into an over sized Ant that could be easily killed.

[@cajohnson130]

​@@TaxemicFanatic I love Aliens but that still bothers me to this day. They supposed to be perfect organsms that are almost indestructible, not green paint balloons.

[@TaxemicFanatic]

@@cajohnson130 I love the movie too. It's a great film but it does slightly diminish the Aliens durability. It's an action/horror. Alien is a horror/thriller, the OG. And I'll always prefer it. I also enjoyed Romulus despite a few minor things.

[@danielwoods3563]

Alien given the Star Wars makeover. Awful dialogue, over acting, scattergun fan service, CGI-ing dearly departed actors, and giving Big Chap the 'somehow Palpatine returned' treatment. When people are giving first reactions and the best thing they can say is compliment the sound design rather than the story and the acting, you know something's up.

[@jthomas420]

A bit harsh but also not entirely wrong. I still enjoyed it but I do wonder how the movie will age upon a few rewatches.

[@buzzfunk]

everyone is flashed by the visuals. Romulus is mediocre at best. The Xenos are too small and the ending..we already had that. It was disappointing esp. it seems Fede was held back gore wise.

[@savvastoynoysidis360]

At least its not bordelands kind of bad

[@dannnnng]

Movie was terrible. Worst Ive seen all year. Mind numbingly bad writing.

[@antorcha2]

What? Hahahah come on dude. Worst all year? I would love to hear your top picks 🙄

[@dannnnng]

@@antorcha2 Dune 2, Twisters, civil war, Fuiosa. Id don't even fully like all those but they were better than Romelus. Damn some of my kids movies they watched. Romelus is a terrible film. I mean if you like AvP then ok. But it's nothing like Alien. It's honestly a parody of Alien/s.

[@hgaleano96galeano52]

I know everyone has a right to their opinion but this kinda makes me feel bad for you tbh It’s hard to imagine someone feeling so extremely negative in response to this movie. Your perception is so skewered and sad :(. At least you watched the movie and supported the artists with your wallet so Fede Alvarez can keep making good movies Surprised you liked twisters tho. That movie is a kids movie compared to this in every way.
