One last point on this film, RR Fags.

Noomi Rapace (as Elizabeth Shaw) left LV-223 with David's head on her way with a Cross to "The Engineers" Home World.

It is assumed that "The Alien" that was born LV-233 arrived on LV-426 before the character "Elizabeth Shaw" with David; arrived on "The Engineers" Home World.

Oh yea, I was it in IMAX 3D where I saw it. I doubt you idiots did in your primitive world.

This was one of the best films I have ever seen, just for pure production if anything

btw, Noomi Rapace has a Great body, I was able to wait to jerk off to her after the film

[a$$kicker]

saw it this weekend - really enjoyed it.

i've seen alien - years ago and not a huge follower/fan, but enjoyed the prequel aspects of it none the less. 3d was well worth it for the opening scenes alone. i need to wikipedia lawrence of arabia to revisit the david character's obsession.

I doubt you watched it in a better and bigger screen than the IMAX in Sydney. It's just the world's largest.

Impressive production design and some good performances (Fassbender is a knockout once again) are all this has going for it. They could build an all new bigger and better IMAX screen right in enormodome's back yard and it still wouldn't improve a wretched script which counts upon every character acting in the dumbest way in every possible situation. I think I'd give 'Inseminoid' another go before revisiting this one.

I thought it was interesting that they put the cross, and faith at the heart of a film which trashes the whole idea of a benign Christian God, and kind of promoting a more Satanic version of Creationisim
and the Alien abortion
And the obvious foot washing, etc Biblical symbolisim
I suppose something has to be done to appease  the Christian right
and the RupertMurdoch and his Daughter resemblance, was that a joke?
I enjoyed it anyway
So if they insist that it is not an Alien prequel, even though it obviously is, is that to get out of paying up to the Alien franchise?
weird
I liked it, despite the crappy script and terrible generic casting of the crew , and the awful unscientific sloppy way that they wandered about in their "Mission",credulity was zero
Original was better on all those counts and more
But I loved the opening scene and the image of the space Jockey
Fassbender, you did your best with what you were given, what more can I ask for

[funkypunk]

The rights to both films are owned by 20th Century Fox, so they don't have to pay up there. As it's using characters created by the authors of the original Alien, they will have to pay up to them.

So if Ridley Scott has discussed the idea that Jesus was an Engineer and that Shaw is going to Paradise, ie Heaven, he really is taking on Star Wars in the Epic Myth Making Game
I really hope he ups his game for the next one because it has the potential to be really bad if he continues with the awful scripts

[Sal Paradise]

do people still watch and care about these films?

y'know, watching 2001 and Solaris kinda blew shitty space movies out of the picture for me

but the first Alien was good

Yes it was
I dunno, it's just that you would expect something great from Scott after Bladerunner, but the actual story and acting was pretty dire apart from Shaw and David, it was like he concentrated on the admittedly amazing opening sequence and the other scenes with the engineers, and forgot that he had to hang it on a credible story and believable dialogue
Apparently the sequel in the trilogy is called Paradise

are you aware of all the weird theories about Solaris?
your supposed to watch it with Dark Side of The Moon or something
Like Dark Side Of The Rainbow
Maybe that's why Josh joked about watching Snow White with LTP

[Sal Paradise]

I don't know about that

I know that pink floyd synched one of their songs to the Jupiter sequence of 2001

maybe that's what you're thinking of

Having to fillet a snail for the benefit of a poor injured baby bird has reminded me of the lack of goo in Prometheus
basically  the main ingredient of Alien was Vagina
The original artwork from Alien was from Giger who's first designs were rejected by the Diirector and crew as looking too much like a Vag
he went to work again to tone down the metaphor, but it was still explicit in the core of the motivation and the drama
survival and reproduction
Anything to survive, anything to reproduce, at any cost
now we have a thoughtful,  genetically engineered male seeding the environment with DNA, it's all bit "tame" Where is the blood and guts, the scary volatile goo?
Now it Its masculine and menacing in some abstract and uninvolving way, with a squishy tension in a robot's fingers emphasing the lack of reproduction or masturbation of the robot

[EraserHR]

Prometheus.

5/10

For perspective, the first Alien is a 9. The Director's Cut is an 8.

ok so i saw the movie yesterday and it really isnt half bad. i almost fell asleep at one point but it made up for that.what i did was release all notions that the movie is an alien movie. obviously the only thing it has to do with alien is showing how the alien was born. the movie is obviously deals the space jockeys creating humans and then wanting to destroy humanity with the alien. the basically is exactly what ridey scott said it would be. there wqill obviously be more and the sory will be better explained  but obviously dr scott and the robot guy are going to the home of the space jockeys to get dr scotts questions answered. i also believe that the planet they were on ends up being the same one that they went to the reuse mission for in the 1st movie. makes too much sense.

Which Solaris? There have been 3 versions. The 1968 Soviet one is the closest to the book, the others concentrate on the humans and their dull emotional bullshit rather than the planet/entity (which is definitely the main 'character' in the book). The 68 one isn't seen much tho, it ended up pulled from release and shown on Soviet tv instead - a result of the internal party politics and the downfall of Krushchev/rise of Breshnev to power and the patronage that came/went with each.

It's not the same planet.
