MemberTrilobiteAug-17-2017 12:43 AM"Who the hell is Branson?" seems the bigger question. Not seeing anything EXCEPT the movie, no one would know.
That said, I saw the Prologue etc and think the cartoon is reaaly good- thanks for sharing.

would actually be intriguing to see how people think the film would differ if he had not be a completely wasted character just to show Oram wasn't accustomed to giving the orders and had the position thrust upon him and survived

MemberFacehuggerAug-17-2017 7:00 PMHe will probably be a main character in the novel. He was probably sabotaged.
Is there an agenda the mods are not telling us about? ;)

MemberTrilobiteAug-17-2017 7:07 PMali81 Not to sound like a skipping record, but that is a reason I think the movie should be shown with deleted scenes and trailers.
