BEWARE THE IDES OF MAY

You have my sympathy

The speculation will all come to nothing , they aren't going to give anything away, nor should they. They have deliberately fanned the flames of speculation so much, the rumour-mill has now started working mega-overtime. It's a fantastic marketing campaign which will possibly be, due to the stupid priority system we sign up to, remarked upon more than the actual film.
I have no doubt this film will be a milestone, 2012's "2001"! Will it be remembered for the film or the campaign? Ridley's legacy does not deserve to be skating on the, potentially, thin ice of marketing , it should be judged on his fantastic "eye", how. every frame is a picture of texture and lighting., each scene with a tight narrative, nothing wasted. He's the real-deal a true genius of the film world offering a visual banquet with every frame for gorging. But, the company men from Weyland, oops sorry I meant Fox, will have their day before his, unless there is a sequel to the prequel.
