Well, I'm about to leave to see A:C in 1/2 hr. I have high hopes for this movie being an original fan back when A L I E N was released and I forgot about my then girlfriend and surroundings and was transfixed on what I was watching unfold before me on the screen.

I absolutely love what and where Ridley was taking Prometheus but understand that this movie can go in any direction.

I have tried my best to ignore the spoilers we have been bombarded with so as to go in fresh.

Anyways, the time to leave is upon me :)

My thoughts post-movie will follow …

* Update:

WOW!

I loved it! The pace was great from go-whoah. I personally do not think that there was any flat spots whatsoever. The cast and acting were great. Plot was good. Sets were great (this is one dark movie in more ways than one). Score was great. The only part I felt a little deflated with, was the ending. It's probably the only time I have ever wanted a Hollywood ending, but my thoughts are changing on that as it sinks in. :)

So, from an original old schoolers POV, I thought it was great. I now want to see it again.

I think if everyone went into this movie with an open mind and no expectations, then you will dig it.

Cheers, Godzilla. I will regardless :)

I'm glad someone caught that, DK. Yep, I'm well aware of spoilers.

Got my ticket: movie starts in 10mins …

I have heard they make for an alarming toilet bowl view.

Well they are made of activated carbon. And the icecream is not advertised as "black goo" icecream but it is being sold in L.A.

With OD patients, I know what activated charcoal looks like in a toilet bowl- still, it could be a fun marketing ploy.

joylitt- RHP is a cult classic. If you have never seen it, give it a whirl- Tim Curry did a great job. I did not see a David/FnF connection. Anyway, Here is what Tonehound was referencing:

dk So did you watch the AC already? I think they made the connection because of the creation of life theme.

joylitt Have not seen. But I had not considered that until you just mentioned it. Wow- I can see some connections except FNF was already over the top. Sorry-  when you first mentioned, I was thinking of Riff Raff but yes, I can see it. Will tune in tomorrow to update after doing the time warp again. Tonehound spawned a new conversation and may ot realize it!

dk That is the thing. They say this is not the same David from Prometheus. Now he is more theatrical and over the  top.

joylitt I just started a new thread. I would like to hear interpretations/comparrisons if there are any. I think I can see a couple but need to watch tonight before continuing. I thank you for sparking the idea!
