Yup. Blade Runner 2049 good. Alien: Covenant bad. ;)

yeah, the guy’s later career has been so hit-or-miss. His early work was incredible, but nowadays… not so much. The guy is coasting on his reputation.

I liked The Last Duel, but only because I have a lot of patience and was interested in the subject matter. It was a grueling and miserable story told 3 times from 3 perspectives, well made, well-acted, and well-directed, however it’s not a story many people really wanted or even needed to see. Most people hated it.

And, as has been mentioned Alien: Covenant. Ugh…

I wish we could have the old Ridley Scott back, but that guy is long gone.
