Anyone catch the new Prometheus trailer? Really hope Ridley Scott redeems himself after that mess, Robin Hood. Ugh. Should really watch Blade Runner and Alien again to celebrate this Prometheus' existence.

I saw the new trailer yesterday about 6 times. I really have high hopes for this, it might just be the best SciFi movie in a long time.
And I really hope there is some kind of very shocking never seen before scene in it, like the chestburster in the original alien, that will give the audience a new dimension of terror.

So Ridley Scott is being coy about whether this is actually a prequel, which leads me to believe that it's actually a prequel. There's really no question, and it should be a great film.
Actually, screw Alien, I just want to watch Blade Runner. (Incidentally, the Collector's Edition of Blade Runner is probably the greatest fucking Blu-ray you can buy -- five versions of the film, and the Final Cut is reference quality. And it's going to get even better when the 4K version is released in 10-15 years.) |

Alien is to me the best scifi AND the best horror movie of all time.
And from some analysis of the trailer, it seems EXTREMELY likely that Prometheus is a direct prequel. And it's not just the same alien ship, and a clearly visible space jockey, one image looks like a frozen Alien.

Don't watch the devil inside.
The movie is only 1+ hr. And the ending really really sucks. It just leaves you wanting so much more and disappointed with the waste of your money. Go download it if you really must watch it. The Prometheus trailer looks absolutely awesome. Every once in a while, I regret deleting the alien series movies from my hard drive. |

Mannnnn, I've seen the Prometheus trailer far too many times now. People are saying that the tiny speck on Michael Fassbender's finger is a xenomorph before it takes it's host. I dunno how true that is but needless to say with all the Alien-esque shots within the film, I think it's safe to say that this pretty much IS an Alien-prequel of some kind. Need to get Alien on Blu-ray... Been YEARS since I first saw it. :| |

I've never seen Alien: Resurrection but oddly enough I am rather enticed by the idea of it (Ripley clones, bahaha). I know it's got a bad reputation but I'd be willing to force myself to get through it, haha. I don't even count the Alien vs Predator movies as being part of the Alien experience. I admit when I was like 13 I thought the first AvP was pretty cool but looking back now I realise how stupid I was. Don't even want to see AvP: Requiem. I've learnt that adding "Requiem" to the name of your sequel doesn't help the quality of your film... (looking at you Battle Royale). |

The third one despite its obvious flaws, had a good atmosphere and I feel ripleys character truly comes full circle. I never hated it but watching it now i appreciate the direction a lot more than the movie itself.
