#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,265 Posted May 10, 2014 Share Posted May 10, 2014 A film focusing on Fassbender's character might actually be interesting. But I really dont have much fate in this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nightscape94 965 Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 Interestingly enough, I think most people want to see a sequel, if only because it's like a fiery crash that you can't look away from. You do kinda want to see if it gets worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Naïve Old Fart 9,504 Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 Richard, are you being serious?Yes, I am, actually. I think that "Prometheus" is Scott's best, and most entertaining film since "White Squall". I loved the chance to re-enter the "Alien" universe. True, it had its bad points, but I overlook them. I like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Naïve Old Fart 9,504 Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 Undoubtedly Scott's best film is that thing he put out in 1982 (can't remember the title), but I do like "WS". It has good photography, and it has Jeremy Sisto. It also has The Dude, and any flim that has him (yes, even "King Kong"!) can't be that bad.Anyway, so what if I'm the only one who likes "Prometheus"? It really doesn't bother me.

Naïve Old Fart 9,504 Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 Ooh, yes! Forgot about that one. Hated the TC, but I do like the DC. Perhaps other DCs should be re-evaluated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt C 452 Posted August 2, 2014 Share Posted August 2, 2014 We thought it was Prometheus 2, but the next Ridley Scott movie is called The Martian (starring Matt Damon), the adaptation of the Andy Weir novel -- the script was adapted by Drew Goddard. Has nothing to do with Prometheus, other than the sci-fi genre. Also, Fox moved it up from March 4, 2016 to November 25, 2015.http://blogs.indiewire.com/theplaylist/ridley-scotts-the-martian-starring-matt-damon-moved-up-to-2015-tim-burtons-peregrine-bumped-and-more-20140801 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 40 minutes or so of deleted material and fantastic making of documentary help flesh out what it could have been, which is something a lot better than what it ended up being.

Koray Savas 2,251 Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 The 40 minutes or so of deleted material What do they consist of?A lot of it is alternate material that just makes more sense than what ended up in the final cut. For instance, the dock bay door sequence with the dead guy who turns super human made no sense to me in theaters, but his original design made him to look more like a xenomorph instead of some random zombie. Some bits are extended, some were rightly changed... The encounter with the Engineer was originally like some horror flick with them playing hide and seek with a giant axe.
