Okay, finished watching it. Not that bad, but a bit empty.
Many unanswered questions. Sequel?
And it's totally Alien related after all.

^ Obviously its not the same engineer (and ship).
Prometheus is not a direct prequel...but happens in the same universe...before the alien incident.
- not buying itStugoo
- Stugoo the film has a lot of hole and this isnt one of them /rolleyesahli
- sorry, but you set up a prequel like that only to say its not the same ship, poor continuityStugoo
- You are stupid if you think that. Damon Lindelof even said it himself >inv

So was Scott a christian? Do most religions use the symbol of water as rebirth? Was the engineer falling into the water a plan for the black tar to migrate to other creatures in the water to create new hybrid alien off-spring?
What was the time frame of the alien falling into the water to Prometheus landing on planet?
Most of the movie was bad but by Scott planting this in the beginning opens too many cans of worms for me :)

Come on. It really sucked?? Seriously? I coudl understand it if you thought it was average, but this movie was way better than most of the action junk that is released these days.
And why does every aspect ( and character) of a movie have to be perfect? Most movies are so over explained that a monkey could understand them. I find it liberating that some directors trust the viewers to fill in some gaps..use your imagination..
- Whaaaat? This film isn't bad because I'm incapable of filling in gaps, its crap because its sloppy and incoherent.Horp
- Well, i didnt think it was and apparently so didnt 80% of imdb&rottentomato users either...inv
- As long as you're in the majority you're okay buddy. General rule for life actually... go with the herd.Horp

One thing that bothers me though ( havent seen it yet ) judging from the trailer, is how come in the same univers much before the alien this ship has super high tech interface.
Is this mentioned in the movie? Is it because that the nostromo ship was an old rusty workship that couldnt afford upgrades?
- Can't exactly maintain visual continuity with a late 70s filmukit2
- Lol. Why didn't they have blowback perms as well?biusness
- 1979, back when you could smoke on spaceshipsStugoo
- Still though Ridley started it, why not just make it after the alienattentionspan
- There will always be holes like this in sci-fi. If you cannot accept that you will not enjoy it..inv
- The excuse the writer told in a media event was that the Nostromo was a mining ship therefore not fancyernexbcn
- sorry mate, but this has to be the dumbest comment I've read in this thread,
Good job SIR!!GeorgesII - No diff than the Star Trek reboot or even the 'Enterprise' series.ETM

Scott is very interested in returning for the sequel and so is Lindelof, but Lindelof believes a new writer should step in. "It could actually benefit going into someone else's able hand," he said. "Although, I feel like some storyline has already been constructed based on conversations that Ridley and I had about it."
In other words Lindelof has no idea what to do now i guess ancient aliens didnt cover this

The air is fresh inside the "pyramid" but did you notice that the engineer went from his ship to the other without a mask at the very end, when he tried to kill that bitch??? Well I did....
