Ok since more have seen the Prometheus movie now....


What really bugs me is that in Alien 1 they find the alien eggs in a very orderly fashion, and in a spot that looks like it was meant for them.

And as far as I know, the Alien queen does not care about how she lays the eggs, they just get laid and then they are dormant until something approaches.


Now.. In the Prometheus movie, not only does the Space Jockey not die on its canon-seat thingy in the ship(he dies outside, in the human emergency ship), but also.. the alien-baby coming out of him doesn't explain the alien race at all. I feel like Ridley scott did not bother respecting his own original creation, which I thought he would. of all people, he'd be the one respecting his own story to a tee, wouldn't he? But apparently not.

I mean I do think it would have been better as just a standalone movie. It wasnt bad, and I certainly enjoyed it. But The ending sort of disappointed me.

I do like that that whatever sequels the prequel will have, will most likely have nothing to do with the original aliens.


I really had hope though, that the aliens were perhaps a species of their own. A parasite of sort that spreads from ship to ship whenever it can.


Edit: Oh yea, that said, unless the ship in question isn't even the same one as in Alien 1.... in which case... i just find the effort silly.


Anyway I do like the fact that Ridley kept things reasonable retro. Reasonably... The style didn't deviate too much from the original one. Also I didn't mind the main character. I also like the Android guy.. He's amusing.


Sigh.. Ridley Scott is also working on a sequel to Bladerunner now... Given what I saw in Prometheus, I'm a be nervous and skeptic x_x
