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!

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.

And you said it, "FUN" is a big part of all of this. So I checked and I dont see anything offensive anywhere. Mentioning Hitlers name should not be offensive. I agree with Rick, which means the bastard did horrible things, but other more horrible thing happened in other wars too, and he targeted all different kinds of groups (blacks, homosexuals etc..) that didnt match with his ideals. This is nothing else just personal between Spartacus and Bio, none of you are more to blame than the other. Gonna finish off with an Einstein quote Peace cannot be kept by war. It can only be achieved by understaning.

Alien

MemberOvomorph12/8/2011
I am a big fan of both Alien and Aliens, and I accept the queen as part of the universe tho there are ppl that dont like it... i like it.. and i think theres a way we can all atleast accept it in... If a alien(drone or warrior) is born and alone with no other eggs or pratorians/queen. Then that alien starts morphing some hosts into eggs till one egg hatches a Royal Facehugger or... the Alien itself metamorphises into a queen... That IMO is the best theory and possible way for everyone thats a fan of both films to except it... Example: ppl that loved the look of the raptors in the first jurassic park dont like the look of the ones in the 3rd one and both fans of the 3rd and haters of the 3rd made a theory that made it where they both existed with the raptors from first two films one subspecies and the 3rd film raptors another... thats my comment for the alien and aliens(queen addition) As for pg13... I am for it if they dont fuck it up too much... Tho i prefer R for some gore and horrific scenes :)

LOL, I think Bio and Sparky are like my teenagers always fightin with each other but you love them both and can't take sides, you just watch, laugh, learn and have fun. spacejock, As George says war is just a "Prick Waving Contest". So with that said boys "nuff of the prick envy" Mine is Bigger than both of yours...(refer'in to Bio & Sparky) Now, Jux that doesn't mean you can have it. It's MINE !

Spartacus

MemberOvomorph12/7/2011

Ya I don't mind a Pg 13 rating, it doesn't stop them from making the aliens do perverse things cause most 13 years already do perverse things.... Or at least has seen it on TV. Really$ how bad to we want to see them aliens mess with humanity? Greed indeed! Can't wait for the video game!
