Welcome to General Chat - GAW Community Area
This General Chat area started off as a place for people to talk about things that are off topic, however it has quickly evolved into a community and has become an integral part of the GAW experience for many of us.
Based on its evolving needs and plenty of user feedback, we are trying to bring some order and institute some rules. Please make sure you read these rules and participate in the spirit of this community.
Rules for General Chat
-
Be respectful to each other. This is of utmost importance, and comments may be removed if deemed not respectful.
-
Avoid long drawn out arguments. This should be a place to relax, not to waste your time needlessly.
-
Personal anecdotes, puzzles, cute pics/clips - everything welcome
-
Please do not spam at the top level. If you have a lot to post each day, try and post them all together in one top level comment
-
Try keep things light. If you are bringing in deep stuff, try not to go overboard.
-
Things that are clearly on-topic for this board should be posted as a separate post and not here (except if you are new and still getting the feel of this place)
-
If you find people violating these rules, deport them rather than start a argument here.
-
Feel free to give feedback as these rules are expected to keep evolving
In short, imagine this thread to be a local community hall where we all gather and chat daily. Please be respectful to others in the same way
Watched the new Alien movie. It's not bad at all. Well paced and you really felt like you were in a space ship. Worth watching in the Cinema. Cheapy Tuesday is still your best bet..
Good to hear! I am very interested in seeing Alien: Romulus because it harkens back to the first two Alien movies (ie the only two I care about). I hear that there's a reference to Prometheus, which I never saw and never plan to, but if I can ignore that, then I am happy.
I watched it too, it was super cool in 4DX.
At the San Diego Comic Con, they gave out a promotion for Alien: Romulus which was an actual VHS CASSETTE with a faux-weathered look. The case looks tattered and worn, with a worn out "SPECIAL LOOK" sticker on it, like it had been once sold at a Suncoast Motion Picture Company at a shopping mall. That right there is FAWESOME. My friend sent me pictures of it. It looks like it was found at a Goodwill or a yard sale or something. I love that neo-retro marketing style.
Romulus will finally be released in Japan this Friday. I wanna go see it.

It was good though, hopefully you can see it.
We have plans to go see it tomorrow night for the opening day! I'll wear my Alien T-shirt too.
Funny, we just started watching it yesterday, but instead decided to watch the Indian movie Monkey Man - which sadly turned out to be woke.
We will watch the Alien today then!
