SIGH i’VE BEEN AVOIDING THIS THREAD BECAUSE i HAVNE’T SEEN THE MOVIE…craps caps lock sorry.
I figurd I’d see it after work today finally…but no theate in the area still has it :sad:
I guress I’ll redbox it…
I’d so be willing to pay a premium to get movies at home…I think this is the toughest part of being a dad now.
download the script and role play with your wife and kids lol :tup:
Ok, the movie was good but I expected more. It is clear how the screenwritter of Lost affected this film. Too many things unsolved and too many things are not well explained. One or two could be enough to have people interested but this many we found in Prometheus kind of disappointed me.
Snagged the 15x5 giant stand up poster thingy from my local theater. Asked them for regular poster, they gave me the cardboard standup with the giant human face relic with Shaw standing below it.
Now to figure out where the hell I’m gonna put this thing:xeye:
LOL :clapdos:
Ridley’s already working on prometheus 2, that was quick.
Nice.
Doesn’t surprise me though, he’s one of those directors who *needs *to be working on something, probably even more so after what happened to Tony.
They’re still releasing virals -

Just stand next to it and hold really still
Semi-OT. I just saw Siskel and Ebert’s review of Aliens and Siskel mentioned something that I never thought about. Aliens is one of those movies I tried to see on scrambled Cinemax as a kid, and by the time I watched it properly, I read all the surprises in magazines and etc. It never hit me that audiences suspected that Newt could have been infected when the aliens attacked Hadley’s. Can you imagine watching that movie in 1986 with that kind of tension and uncertainty hanging over your head? I rate Alien way above Aliens, but damn I envy everybody who saw Aliens on opening weekend.
I could see casual observers drawing that conclusion, but there’s too much evidence against it… you have Ripley telling the marines that the xenomorph in Alien “wiped out her entire crew in less than 24 hours” and then later the “17 days” bit where Ripley says Newt survived longer than that with no weapons/no training. “So why dontya put her in charge?”
.
Once the marines find the med bay and the facehuggers and they’re aware of what happened, they would have known to look for embryo implantation in Newt…theoretically I guess.
Still would have loved to see it fresh in the theaters though, I still like Ebert’s review where he talks about being sick to his stomach because of the film’s rollercoaster of tension and violence.
How funny would it have been if she was infected, and that she was the carrier for Alien 3…especially after how much people despised Hicks and Newt getting killed in the opening credits?
When I first saw Aliens i just happened to come by it by chance whilst watching tv. this was in the early to mid 90’s when we only had 4 tv channels in the UK. i was too young to have heard of this film so i didnt know what to expect… I was so scared after watching it i couldnt sleep for 3 days and this was despite sharing a bedroom with 2 older brothers at the time.
When I first saw Alien, I didnt even know what movie it was, but the alien coming out of the abdomen was pretty awesome, but in this new movie it was predictable…
Yeah, it makes sense to not suspect Newt as the movie went on. Still, the first screening the sequel to Alien, from by the guy who did The Terminator a couple years ago, must’ve been an unnerving watch from start to finish.
OMG OMG OMG :eek:

wtf… maybe we should download this right now…
If I can download a digital copy of the bluray + extras, I’m so for that. :tup:
Found it on itunes - http://itunes.apple.com/us/movie/prometheus/id547496947
Cinema release was 124 minutes, New release run time 159 minutes!!
EDIT: US ONLY :bluu:
EDIT2: The runtime maybe a typo :annoy:
came across this whilst googling :lol:
HOLY SHIT
14minutes of deleted scenes, watch at your own peril
Scenes
#1 Fifield finds shedded skin
#2 Janek visits Vickers (looks like it’s after the Charlie incident)
#3 Waking the Engineer (why they cut this I don’t know)
#4 Shaw vs Engineer
David Engineer Scene
Seems Weyland fucked it up for everybody by comparing himself to a God. It’s like David turning around to Weyland and saying “I’m your equal”, Weyland would have him shut him down.
Annoyingly no further insight as to reasoning behind the Engineer’s mission. I wish all of Shaw’s questions were included in the cinema release.
Trailer for the digital release shows the Deacon (grounds for false advertising LOL)
