Early SCHWARZENEGGER accent is so good, once he was able to give convincing line readings in English but still so oddly emphasized

* The crab aliens are incredibly lethal when first encountered, yet at the first sign of hunger, Williams says he’ll just “grab and eat one of those crab aliens.”

If I'm being honest I want Carl Weathers in every movie.

The Space Jockey uses a fighting style that appears to be Muay Thai kickboxing. It's likely that the Space Jockey is in fact using an alien martial art that simply resembles Muay Thai kickboxing in every particular, or indeed that at some point in the past Space Jockeys visited Earth to teach humans Muay Thai kickboxing.

two weeks pass...

talked to a friend about this movie on saturday night. he was genuinely surprised to learn that anyone thought there was anything silly or unreasonable about it. i forget that this is not the real world.

the world where prometheus is reasonable is the real world?

I ended up seeing this in all 3 formats - IMAX 3D, 3D, and 2D

would've gone a 4th time at the local dollar cinema but it was gone in a flash

i don't know what to say to that

― Number None, Wednesday, 29 August 2012 20:09 (thirteen years ago)

I think you can call yourself Edward IIID after that. xppst

― StanM, Wednesday, 29 August 2012 20:11 (thirteen years ago)

I've streamed it 2x on some grainy Eastern Euro tripod cam bootleg... that has to count for something.

― lil queequeg (peter grasswich), Wednesday, 29 August 2012 20:23 (thirteen years ago)

Would seriously consider watching this again in 3D

Would seriously consider watching this again in another dimension

I was about to post the Minority Report gif of Tom Cruise chasing eyeballs down a ramp, well played

― your native bacon (mh), Wednesday, 29 August 2012 21:18 (thirteen years ago)

Am buying this on Blu-ray. Was probably my fave summer movie.

― Loo Reading (Capitaine Jay Vee), Wednesday, 29 August 2012 21:31 (thirteen years ago)

I was totally on for seeing it again after I left the theatre. But then, you know.

― Andrew Farrell, Wednesday, 29 August 2012 21:59 (thirteen years ago)

I'd characterize my attitude as a grudging fondness, seeing it more than once took me from "ridiculous fail but beautiful and entertaining" to "hey there's a lot going on in here", if scott does a director's cut that smoothes out some of the wacky plot turns it would inch close to classic for me

also I've been o_O at the prospect of 3D TVs but this one makes me go hmmm

― vincent black shadow giallo (Edward III), Thursday, 30 August 2012 02:34 (thirteen years ago)

how would you guys compare it to original alien? for me it feels the new one has aged worse already.

― Philip Nunez, Thursday, 30 August 2012 02:38 (thirteen years ago)

I think it was clearly better than the original "Alien," because all that one offered was questions but this one finally offered some answers.

― Josh in Chicago, Thursday, 30 August 2012 02:43 (thirteen years ago)

this part really bugs me in the original alien:

― Philip Nunez, Thursday, 30 August 2012 02:46 (thirteen years ago)

why do they need so many lights? new alien movie did not answer that question.

― Philip Nunez, Thursday, 30 August 2012 02:48 (thirteen years ago)

Those lights showed that the ship was thinking. New movie better because it didn't waste all that time/lights thinking.

― Josh in Chicago, Thursday, 30 August 2012 02:56 (thirteen years ago)

ok ridley scott i fixed it for you. now remove those lights!

― Philip Nunez, Thursday, 30 August 2012 03:06 (thirteen years ago)

yeah alien that piece of shit was such shit

― vincent black shadow giallo (Edward III), Thursday, 30 August 2012 03:08 (thirteen years ago)

I wish computers were covered in lights. It looks so much cooler.

― Emperor Cos Dashit (Adam Bruneau), Thursday, 30 August 2012 03:47 (thirteen years ago)

original alien: sigourney in mechanics garb
new alien: charlize in ugg boots

i guess i see the appeal of the original but i think i'd buy the blu-ray of the new one

― the late great, Thursday, 30 August 2012 03:48 (thirteen years ago)

ugg life

Hate you guys

― your native bacon (mh), Thursday, 30 August 2012 04:49 (thirteen years ago)

that skintight pants / ugg boots combo made the movie imo
