Interesting thoughts... but...

I normally don't talk science fiction, but I must say I enjoy the threads and discussions that have been started by many at this website. Some of the ideas that are coming from members are nothing short of breathtaking. Some ideas have been so intelligent that frankly, I'm almost jealous for not thinking of it myself. I find it more astonishing that many of us are coming to many of the same far out conclusions.
I think what most of us are yearning is for a well made, self contained, and provocative science fiction film. There really hasn't been that much great sci-fi lately, and this genre definitely needs a revival. Hollywood has literally destroyed this genre (ie made it pop sci fi). Not wanting to sound like a fan boy but look what they did with the Alien franchise.
Ultimately, I'm wondering has someone or have the majority of our ideas going to be what Prometheus will entail? Have a body of our ideas gotten the story right? This will be very interesting if we do or not. I hope when this movie is released we all reflect to see who got things right and most importantly what no one saw coming.
Keeping the thinking coming.
