Hate the Idea

Not at all my friend...not at all. Ridley Scott has only three forays into sci-fi in his career. 'Alien', 'Bladerunner', and the 1984 Apple Computers super bowl commercial '1984' (considered, literally, to be the 'Citizen Kane' of commercials). They are all classics I have no probelm calling masterpieces, each in its own regard. I have absolute faith in what he will give us....for further elaboration as to why....check out my thread entitled 'Something Special'. I think it adequetly sums up and supports my position in this regard.

Agree with some of this. I liked the SpaceJockey having "grown out of the chair": bio-ship is an organism & it grows it's pilot, or a pilot grows the ship :) it just looks so mysterious, bizarre, and is very ... alien, with more body horror. Don't like the "it's a suit" idea. perhaps a halfway house is that the SJ grows into the ship or vica versa. The rest, i'm more excited to see this film than not. Hopefully it won't be a simple 'setup' of the alien derelict, and i am excited to see what ideas they come up with. Perhaps having enjoyed 33 years of SJ mystery is enough :)

I like what you wrote Golic but I still feel a strong sense of faith in the man with regard to the material at hand. I don't feel, with all due respect, that he will deliver a product which just won't live up to the hype.

I hear you, I read your post earlier. Not that the film compares with at all or will compare, but do you remember in Star Wars Episode 1 when they revealed the midichloreans (spelling) ? I just don't need that kind of moment in this film. And I really do want to emphasize I'm have been obsessing over this film since I first starting seeing leaked photos over the summer. My friends are getting kind of annoyed actually. If this film doesn't deliver I'm going to swear off movies and move to a mountain and live in a tree. Alien is with out a doubt my favorite favorite film... ever.

I get ya man, and I agree, I don't even want to consider it's a possibility though.

And yeah maybe the use of the word "hype" is a little much. Scott has delivered some fantastic stuff. Guess I don't want to get my hopes up. That's all. I do have a feeling that we're only seeing the tip of the iceberg in the trailer. June couldn't feel further away.
