Just a thought.... With Fox insisting that Prometheus will carry a PG13 rating, so a wider audience can be reached=bigger financial return, will Prometheus' storyline be comprimised? We've already heard about the horror element been toned down Fox did exactly the same thing with Aliens.....Made it an action movie because that was the biggest movie seller in the mid/late eighties. As a result the 'roots' of Alien (1979) was changed They wrote in the abomination of a queen that lays eggs=more aliens=more action=bigger box office=lack of integrity!

I agree, and normally I wouldn't care, but at 49 and after everything I have been through there is Just No Bullshitting in me, I cannot do it. I am hurt, I have been slighted, I do not like it one bit, and it says a lot about how things really are in this world. But you are 100% and I might even create one myself, I have a lot of people right now telling me to do it and I am very well versed in pearl and HTML. In the meantime you are right and I will try to lighten up and take everything less seriously. Which normally is no problem for me but I am a highly moral person and when I see an in justice or live one myself I let it be known immediately, I just can't accept Totally & morally reprehensible Bullshit from myself and especially from anyone else!!!

@ Biomechanic & Spartacus, There you go, kiss and make up, we are all here after all to discuss the forthcoming Prometheus, all other priorities are rescinded, crew expendable... in other words lets keep on topic, refrain from false and misleading information and enjoy the six months leading up to Prometheus's launch.

49...hey!....and I was fearing I might be the oldest guy here at 40...phew! Anyway Spartacus.....I would not be to upset about not getting voted as part of admin...I just come here to relax ....if they ever had to ask me i would probably say no thanks...it's just extra responsibilities and shit to worry about and whats the big deal ? ....is it supposed to be some kinda honor?....no disrespect to the guys who make up the admin team....i love this site and I don't have any problems with any of the people on here...so far I have not been insulted by anyone.....but what's does being part of the admin actually entail......i am really curious?

Personally, I think Bughunter should pick 4 admin, Spartacus, Rick, Biomechanic & Cain1977. I wouldn't mind doing admin myself as i'm on here at least a couple of hours a day now but I can't vote for myself and i've only been posting since yesturday. I think the 4 posters I have mentioned are the most prolific, if that makes sense? Not forgetting the amount of stress they saved me by helping me change my profile pic.

@ Biomechanic, I think it would be a shame for you or Spartacus not to be admin, you are both bringing good stuff to the Prometheus table.

LOL, I love all you guys. You hear me Sparky and Bio? We need a little controversy to get he heart pumping. Sparky is done Venting(I Hope). Don't take it personally Sparky I'm sure you're still up for the job. Would be great to see both you guys here throwing a jab every now n again at each other keeping it real. Just so everyone know's its not an admin job. The site needs 3 Moderators and I'm sure each will have to keep an eye on there own respective forums. On a personal note you guys need to set aside your differences and work together. That means don't take things personally, sucking up what ever has already been said, letting it go, and manning up. Be professional and most of all have fun. That also includes a friend request in Facebook in case something goes on in someone's forums and the other doesn't know about it right away. It just makes sense. Anyways there's my 2 bits. Regards, Rick

ooooooh....lol....the plot thickens ....Bio and Sparky is at it again....another reason why I find this site so entertaining...it might sound selfish of me to say such things....but I am willing to bet their are others on this forum that find it every bit as entertaining as I do.... Anyway back on topic.....PG13 sucks ass.....gimme the R rated version....it's not the most expensive movie ever made...so fox just wanne cash in!...the alien franchise is very popular and even with a "R" rating it will still make way more than it cost.... I know that Ridley was pushing for an "R" rating since he started on Prometheus.. i read somewhere that he almost abandoned the project at one stage...purely due to the PG13 rating.....so in the same article they mentioned that their will be two versions....the PG13 and R rated....In fact it would not surprise me if Sir Scott gave Fox an ultimatum....but he got his way...at least to a certain extent....not sure when and how they gonna release both versions.....R rated will be most likely released as a directors cut only available once the movie reaches DVD....I am sure it will also be re released in seleted cinemas......but that last one is just speculation.

its about 2 moustaches that are found by Kane near the egg in an infamous deleted scene of Alien Director's cut .... Spartacus think is a clear proof that the queen raped Goering while im not of that idea .

Biomechanic mentioned hitler by way of a comment, Sparky called it distasteful, Biomechanic returned stating that he was jewish and took no offence. I believe this lovers tiff has been going on for some time, and just when it seems they are going to make up, one or the other puts their foot in it again. I personally think they are a married couple, with computers in seperate rooms. That said I can't tell really which one is the wife lol.
