Wow this guy really hits the nail on the head IMHO. I think he without a doubt, answered the big ideas of the movie, and also gave a good answer behind the David quotes that where place throughout. Without bringing in all the confusing aspect of the Prometheus myth, which I really think was just played in the background of this movie. Think about it, Weyland wanted to approach our "Gods" to steal their fire, and was punished for it in the end. I personally think that is basically all there is to that, which would be the "trick" the movie plays on us. What better way to make you keep thinking that there is more to the Prometheus myth, than to name the damn movie after a TRICKSTER titan of mythology??? Anyway on with the review, it's from moviefone.com and by a guy (I'm guessing a columnist) named [b]Christopher Capbell[/b]. So all the credit goes directly to him.

Thanks to @ [url=http://www.prometheus-movie.com/member/4288]Tokyokid[/url] [url=http://www.chud.com/100388/stealing-fire-in-praise-of-prometheus/]THIS[/url] Is my new very favorite review, and I have a strong feeling that I won't be changing my mind any time soon, if EVER. So I strongly suggest everyone read this if they want to get the most in depth review BY FAR! IMO....of course :)

"..Vickers wouldn't be called Weyland..." If Vickers did indeed choose her last name..that would tell me she wanted to distance herself from the mega comapny..for whatever reason.....and the last thing she would want is to be on a spaceship..with her Father,,heading to an unknown land,,,light years away from home. I would suggest that Vickers changed her name to be a spy in a competive company..learning their secrets and then return to Weyland to use the information. Seeing the David8 project and hearing Dad saying that an android was a 'son' to him..she,,out of spite,,continued to keep the Vickers' name to irritate Dad,
