MemberOvomorphApril 21, 20122580 Views51 RepliesI know that my girlfriend tried to get into this movie since she knew how big of an ALIEN and ALIENS fan i was....... She started reading about some pf the more "disturbing" aspects of the film and told me that there was jsut no way.
Guess my real question is would you anyone along(bf,gf, or friend) if they werent really in on what the movie was?

i did show alien to aunts , grandfathers , nephews , dogs and cats ...and no one saw it disturbing ( shocking and scaring for sure !) ...really the disturbing aspects are there if you want to see them ( and im not talking if they are there or not )
And i know for sure that my mother and father ( 60 and above ) will run to see prometheus .... while the gf is more interested to do disturbing things with me instead searching them in movies :p .

Sorry ... BLOKES ONLY! ... for our crowd ... Girlfriends not allowed until me and my mate have seen for the 3rd time ... then we can relax ... ;) ...

My girlfriend never stops hearing about Prometheus and pretty much knows as much as all of us. Thankfully she's super excited to see the film and wants to go with me to see it on opening night. She loves sci-fi as well, so I'm a very lucky man. Haha

I am male. When I was 12, I convinced my aunt (in her late 30’s at the time) to take me to the original [i]Alien[/i]. We went to a matinée around mid-day. The [b]MANAGER[/b] of the theater came out very much on purpose and advised her against taking me in to see it. But, nonetheless, we went in and sat. There were perhaps 7 other people in the theater. By 1/2 way through that number had dwindled to 3 or 4. People just couldn't take the intensity of it.
([b]Aside:[/b] My aunt is [u]the biggest[/u] cat lover in the world.)
Every time the xeno showed up to make things more interesting, my aunt buried her face in her hands and was silent while the VERY LOUD mayhem transpired on the screen. After almost every episode of this, she would keep her eyes covered and repeat (rather frantically), "Is the cat OK?!!, Is the cat OK?!!?? I'm laughing out loud right now writing this. I don't think she ever saw even a glimpse of the xeno. I will have this amazing humorous blessing with me the rest of my life. She is in her 70’s and we still laugh about it together every few years too.
Xeno + Jones + aunt = [b]eternal hilarity!![/b]
ROFLOL still...

Been married for for almost ten years, saw the latest trailer for Prome' attached to Wrath of the Titans a few weeks ago and the only complaint from the old lady was the loud siren sound in the trailer, plus my eight year old son is crazy about Alien and Predator.

@Xenophobia - Not a chance! She's a keeper!
@sukkal - That's hilarious. Haha

All my female friends are in love with Michael Fassbender right now, so there's no keeping them away opening night. ;)

Personally, I don’t like going anywhere with a person who’s not happy to be there, dude or chick. I’m gonna catch this flick with a group of cousins and friends…all male. That’s just the way we like to do the opening night thing…for events like this. And when it comes to male comradery… we don’t like mixing “cotton candy” with our “beer.”
And you know what? They don’t want us at their flippin’ winno, scrapbook parties either…so it all works out. Luckily, none of my women have ever been hardcore SciFi fans, so it’s never been an issue. Besides, I find most serious SciFi chicks to be kinda creepy in general…and more terrifying looking than the Alien itself. SCREEEEEEEECH!

I'm not a "sci-fi chick", but I am sooo looking forward to this film. BTW, most sci-fi dudes I know are homely and pasty, Neurion. So I'm like you; I don't date sci-fi fans.
April 21, 2012
LOL, indeed Prom_queen. I don't think Neurion really thought that one through before writing it.
April 21, 2012

My wife and I are both ALIEN fans and she's 5'4 with blonde hair and blue eyes and I'm 6'1 talk dark and handsome.
I had to throw that out there before the fact we are MMORPG players. (Yes, WoW but not since last October - Diablo 3 is next!)
I wouldn't go see this movie without her for anyone.

OH YEAH, and I have played/linked this trailer for everyone I know and everyone wants to see it...male and female.
It has nothing to do with male or female - it's "fan or not a fan".
Gender isn't even secondary to the argument.
