Ridley Scott’s Alien: Covenant took the #1 spot at the box office this weekend, beating out Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2. The latest installment in the Alien franchise debuted at the top spot by bringing in $36 million. Meanwhile, Guardians was right behind, with $35.1 million. I saw Alien Covenant, and I thought it was pretty well done, but there were quite a few questions raised, around why the characters did some of the things they did, but, whatever, it was a fun ride! Did you see any of the weekend’s biggest movies? Any you would recommend?
