Thank the Lord, Idk if I can take anymore alien prequel "lore" from the man himself. The first helping wasn't even that good.

The "drops" in the headline is the "provides" kind, not the "gives up on" kind.

That long-awaited sequel to Alien: Covenant?

Still happening, Ridley Scott says, and with Michael Fassbender’s David at the center.

Alien was, Prometheus? Not so much. Let's run from the donut ship along its broadside ass story.

my confusion was with first helping

i see you mean first prequel being meh and not first overall movie

i would agree, beyond 1 and 2, alien franchise has been bad
