Different era mate. Gotta take these things as they come/on their own merit. I think most valid criticism of covenant from Prometheus was that it did away with main intrigue of Prometheus inside 30 seconds: when they arrived at creators home world & unleashed bioweapon rather than explore origin storyline. In retrospect I think it was another mastsrstroke from Ridley & makes covenant a more self contained piece/film while answering by ignoring questions of previous film. It’s like, “ok we’ve kind of explained what we’ve needed to explain, now here’s another story.”

A fisherman always sees another fisherman from afar

Sounds like the subplot to a Califorication type show at this point.

Ezrin as a star player??? Zzzzzzzzzzzz.... We have finally scrapped the bottom of the barrel regarding CD & who is to blame. What a waste. All those wasted years, for Bob Ezrin & the whims of Axl. A cocktease. A waste of time & resources.

Axl was a spent force singer clawing on for dear life to justify his existence. That’s CD. + squandering opportunities & individualitiies like Bucket, even Bumble. Ugh. We wasted our lives downtime for this? I wasted my youth on this?!

FWIW killing joke have slayed this GnR last decade.

I mean we’ve all made mistakes professionally, & prob some of us have ripped the piss. But Axl’s inability to steeer the ship takes the cake.
Maybe in the context, at the time, the pressures seemed significant. But from the outside looking in its like, jfc you sacrificed slasher duff Izzy popcorn bucket for THAT? Oh man. & for those involved it seems like a punch to the gut. What I thought was true before were lies I couldn’t see..

Forfucks sake I’d have made a BETTER hash of tuning the show than the big head honcho himself.

Time to listen to OIAM.

If you’re not part of the solution..
