I approve Ridley Scott trying to scare me instead of put me to sleep as he has seemed so intent on doing of late.

hadn't this thread title been edited to point out that this is the 'Prometheus' thread earlier?

It had, but then it hiccuped or something. Let me try again.

“We begin at the beginning,” Lindelof said during a session with reporters before the film’s big Hall H panel presentation. “Ridley has been cryptically obtuse about everything, but there are some big ideas in Prometheus. It covers a vast expanse of time, past, present, and future.”
So it's now a remake of 2001?
― Circlework de Soleil (S-), Tuesday, 26 July 2011 00:04 (thirteen years ago) link
yeah it's a crossover. original it was called HALiens

i hope it's better than Hannibal.
― piscesx, Tuesday, 26 July 2011 00:14 (thirteen years ago) link
Hannibal was one of the least bad of his recent films
Still can't re-watch it due to a couple scenes making me want to vomit and have nightmares, though.

The Predators didnt create the aliens. The space jockey’s created the Aliens as a weapon or they were mearly collectors of them to use as a weapon. It’s conflicting in the literature. They would drop them onto a planet to wipe out indigenous life and would then come back to kill off all of the aliens using sonic weapons. That space jockey ship in Alien was one of their offensive drop ships. The Predators simply use the Aliens as a means to have something to hunt. They would drop a few eggs down, wait, then go hunt. An alien queen kill is I believe the greatest trophy in their culture.

Pretty sure that removing the unheimlich mystery from the space jockey and the derelict can only be a bad thing but yeah I can't help but feel a little bit stoked either.

I don't get the Guy Pearce thing, according to it the movie takes place in the 2020s? And we're supposed to have interstellar space travel and cyborgs by then? Is the movie set in some alternate Earth?

Given the context of the fake page hosting it, I think the TED talk video is supposed to be around fifty years before the 'now' of Prometheus, so there you go.
