They're Remaking 'Alien' -- the 'Prometheus' thread

WITH AN EAR-SPLITTING SMASH, the JUGGERNAUT HITS THE SURFACE
ON IT’S SIDE -- And because of it’s unique design, it does
not STOP THERE --

IT ROLLS. END OVER END LIKE A CRUSHING WHEEL OF DEATH -- BIG AS A
MOUNTAIN.

a) it's
b) it's
c) unique design? what no-one ever built a circular spaceship before?
d) WHEELS DON'T HAVE ENDS YOU DICKHEAD

the proverbial "donut hole"

It's a MIRACLE.

I love seeing this thread bob back up to New Answers.

A CRUSHING WHEEL OF DEATH -- BIG AS A MOUNTAIN

tbrr I quote this movie all the time

I actually quite liked this but almost 3500 posts is pretty ridic.

As evidenced by the number of revives that led right back to ground already covered, many posters saw the high volume of traffic on the thread as an 'invitation' to travel to this movie's 'planet' and discover the 'origins' of the discussion. What happened then was something they never could have prepared for, something they were never warned against. BRRAAAAAANNNNNNG

a thread has its reign

BRANNNNNNNNNNG

we were so rong

huh I thought I posted in here

saw this a few weeks ago, loved it

I'm still mad at how excited I was by the trailer

I don't think I was fully prepared for how flat-out stupid a few characters would act

dude who tried to befriend the facehugger got everything he deserved and more IMO

I am still angry at this movie.

Like I'll see it on a shelf at Target and think, "Oh, hey, Prometheus, what's up . . . WAIT DO NOT TALK TO ME I AM STILL REALLY PISSED AT YOU."

lol I know right

I missed the whole beginning though; caught up with them when they got to the planet and shit started going down

I told mr Veg I want to get the bluray and rewatch it with the sound off just to enjoy how nice it looked...but I'm still too upset

Charlize Theron was so ANGRY in this, it was awesome

loved it when she set that dude on fire

The beginning w/the Fassbender robot just thinking about things is my favorite part. xxp

I have twice managed to turn to the movie just as Charlize is threatening to unplug Fassbender

I want a prequel to the prequel that is just david putzing around on earth with vickers coming in every once in a while to throw him around the room

I love Charlize in everything though. I watched Snow White and the Huntsman the other week and she was so great I ended very disappointed that she didn't succeed in murdering Kristen Stewart. xp

hahaha that was our exact reaction to Snow White and the Huntsman (ps we saw that in the theater)

we also spent a lot of time making Jon HUNTSMAN jokes

I mean, Kristen Stewart is such a mumbling neurasthenic that I can't see how anyone could possibly root for her. Deliciously evil kickass magic Queen ftw.

my favorite part of prometheus is still when the alien dude rips off the android's head and clubs the old man to death with it

haha yes that was also great

Charlize Theron was so ANGRY in this, it was awesome

loved it when she set that dude on fire

It was. But she DIDN'T SET THE MOVIE ON FIRE.

they should do a US remake of this starring theron

still love this, showing up tomorrow via netflix so i can hang out with it once again now that i have a bluray player that isnt total horseshit

Woah, is there something that announces what's coming soon to netflix?

oh shit, sorry, i am getting it on disc.

Ha ha, this movie.

I wish Snowwhite and the Huntsman was Kristen Stewart and a giant hunstman spider

I played the huntsman in our town panto and i still regret not killing snow white one night just to see

haha i was so mad about this movie but it seems to have been righty consigned to oblivion so i can safely just forget about it

...or can you?

lol

Sources close to the sequel have told Bloody Disgusting that the studio and (Ridley) Scott are literally “freaking out” over how to continue the story of Elizabeth Shaw (Noomi Rapace), and are taking pitches from basically anyone who can crack the story*.

OK, while i feel ILX would have a lot to offer them on this, this story seems kind of like a bunch of nonsense. Would it really be that big of a problem? Or, like, worse than the problems plaguing the movie they just made?

Was hoping the URL indicated an article titled "Is The Prometheus Sequel Stalled Out Just Because Nobody Wants To See A Sequel To Prometheus?"

how do you do a movie with an ending where they're like "we're going to the alien planet now, look out for the sequel!" and not have any idea how to do the sequel, i just can't

omg guys this can be like a New Yorker cartoon caption competition

just make it about going to the alien planet and fighting more of those dudes, how hard is it

Would be cool if ridley scott is just faking writer's block to avoid making this movie.

There are so many ways to continue this story, to varying degrees of bullshit.

I want a prequel to the prequel that is just david putzing around on earth with vickers coming in every once in a while to throw him around the room

Like, just have whatshername's ship crash back on that planet, with the alien and Fassbender's head, then have someone come to rescue her and here we go again.

Give it to james cameron
