What be this? Pre-Alien 1 stuff, I do find this interesting. When is the premiere?

That earlier script WAS for the originally planned Alien prequel, but Lindelof and Scott have come up with something more stand-alone. While there are still strong links to the original script, this is no longer a direct prequel, though it does take place in the same fictional universe, and in Scott’s metaphorical words, the film contains ‘Alien DNA’. Scott has also said that the final few minutes of the film link more directly to Alien
release date of 1st June 2012 I believe

the trailer has made me really excited. looks like it has alot to do with alien, space jockey, the ship etc
ridley scott has said there is no xenomorphs in the film, which is fine by me.

i saw it, for some reason i have to see it in 3d
Great film

Ridley nailed it, most of the parts were almost similar to alien. He left many things unanswered which is great

Pretty lame if you ask me

the ties to Alien were few, the one hard-on bearer had no business re-animating after getting his face melted, and wtf was up with those dick monsters?

Would you have liked it better if all of a sudden some gay looking terribly-CGI'ed fire demon thing popped out of a sexy leopard elevator at the end?

I saw it tonight. It was not as good as I had hoped nor as bad as I feared. OK, Joseph Conrad didn't write the script, and there are some plot holes, but it was still enjoyable. Plus, it certainly had its share of mind-blowing effects and a few suitably icky moments. Stick around for the credits: I don't think I've ever seen so many people credited before--it had an enormous crew!

Well obviously the studio with $100 million equipment and special effects professionals and etc. will make the better looking movie compared to some other filmmakers working with under $2 million. Still, Prometheus seemed like some dudes collaboratively asked "What's Ridley Scott doing these days? Let's get his input k" and paid him just to show up. Looks like another heavily CGI'd sci-fi film to me, with very few minor connections to the original movies. Looks cool and all. As a stand-alone film, it's ok but an extension of the Alien badassery? Nope.

i do not give one atom of rat's ass that it doesn't much tie in with Alien, because that was not part of my criteria for seeing it in the first place
and CGI in a sci-fi film?

I'm sure the budget of The Last Exorcism is why the ending was so stupid.
