|
|
I'm excited to hear about the film Prometheus being released since it was going to be in 3D, and I heard the plot was really good.
I've seen the preview 100's of times, and I'm waiting on the newest preview.
Some people have been rumoring this film as an Alien prequel due to some references and also having the Weyland character. _________________ Regards,

| It looks like something to do with Alien, but maybe that is just marketing crap. |

It's the same universe as Alien and again using HR Giger artwork.
While at not as related to the main alien it's more about the dead one found in the derelict craft in the first movie. |

| I maybe very very wrong about this but I've heard rumours that there is to be a same sex scene with 2 men in the movie. Something to do with experimenting I think though I could be very wrong. If it's true then WTF. |

Prometheus will single-handedly erase the memories of the AVP movies, along with Resurrection. _________________ "I've seen things you people wouldn't believe: Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion; I've watched c-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhauser Gate. All those moments will be lost in time; like tears in rain. Time to die." |

I don't know the problem. I just wonder what humans have to do with the original alien ship from Alien. |

Well in the first movie Ash knew about the alien. He had orders to bring it back and the crew was expendable.
So at some point The Company learned about this thing and arranged to have a ship encounter it. |

Ok. So the company could be responsible for it in the first place? Interesting. |
