MemberOvomorphFeb-28-2012 7:44 PMI apologize if someone already mentioned this, but there is a lengthy discussion with Lindelof about the writing/filming of the Weyland speech/video. It is a very interesting read and it answers some of the questions tat I see people posting. Here is the site:http://blog.ted.com/2012/02/28/writing-a-tedtalk-from-the-future-q-a-with-damon-lindelof/

MemberOvomorphFeb-28-2012 9:18 PMYes it's a good piece about the guy who put the video concept together. We don't really learn much about the Weyland character though - except that he has a huge ego...
Thx for the link!

MemberOvomorphFeb-28-2012 10:24 PMTrue, but I enjoyed hearing his thoughts on where Ridley was trying to go with the film. Striking a tone between Alien and Blade Runner; exploring ideas, while keeping it entertaining...it is nice to hear that they are trying to achieve a nice balance.
