The movie was actually a fail both technically and in the essence. We will try to explain why such awaited and promising movie has fallen on its face so miserably. And provide perspective on the cultural product from class point of view.

- Technical fail: lazy script writing — and why it is so (and not only with the Alien)
- Conceptual fail: comparative class vivisection — what was the message?
- Alien (1979) — one of the best movies in Sci-Fi genre (Sci-Fi classic)
- Alien: Covenant (2017) — the weak and pretentious imitation

Western warmongering media keep to amaze us with its uncreativeness and weird ideas. It looks like there are supplies of Benghazi hash to the West, istn’t it? I have no other explanation for that.
OK, now it is «cats sporting opposition colours». No, I’m serious!
See:
«A Tripoli resident — who does not want his name to be used for security reasons [Of course! — V.] — describes life over the last week in the Libyan capital, where there are tales [! — V.] of … cats sporting opposition colours.
[What a reliable source for big media news! What if everybody would do work for you with the same quality! Oh, my! — V.]…
Even animals have been drawn into this conflict.There have been several sightings of stray cats parading around with the opposition flag painted on their bodies.
Some, I am told, were unsuccessfully chased and shot at by angry security agents and secret police who work in the Souk al-Joumha and Janzour areas where they have been seen.
[Yeah, they have nothing better to do. What a cheep fantasy! Louis de Funès and Benny Hill are weeping with emotion! — V.]»

Stupid propaganda: and even cats sporting opposition colours!
