The Alien franchise goes back to 1979, and of the first eight films, only the first two seem to have clicked with anyone outside of hardcore Alien fans. So Alien: Romulus went back to the original premise of a cast that encounters an alien life form no one understands. But their employers know about it, and so does the audience, and that may be a problem. Audiences liked it well enough, and critics called it better than all the movies past the first two, which honestly isn't saying much. From what I can tell, it's a good time if you're into this sort of thing, but it doesn't really make a splash in the cinematic science fiction pantheon. The first two Alien movies set the bar that high. (via Geeks Are Sexy)

You mean the 9th rerun of this premise isn't startling and scary?
