No, I haven't seen it. Yes, I know RedLetterMedia is not an infallible source of movie criticism. But when I read about the movie myself, from promotional material for it no less, I found myself asking "that's it? That's all there is to this?"
Maybe my interest/fondness of the franchise hasn't fully recovered from that "David actually made the alien and killed all the Engineers" retcon asspull from before that made the universe feel very small and stripped it of a lot of curiousity and dread in the darkness of space and all of that.
If you saw it and liked it, that's great. Share what you liked about it if you like. The set design, physical costume/makeup work, and even the acting all sound promising, but I don't think I could bear to sit through what really does sound like some LLM-written kitbash of the previous movies.
let's strip the mystery from the aliens with a backstory that is complete nonsense. Also let's make it about faith and creationism and have Jesus be an engineer.
All the alien movies have aspects that are cool, I'm sure Romulus will be that way too, but there is so much wrong with how they handled every movie after aliens. Just An endless string of cocaine-fueled bad ideas.
