what would it take to get ridley scott to contact this forum in some way?

Sorry about the mistake in the above post, i didnt proof read before i posted.

Now that would be AWESOME!!!!! maybe Chris could have a competition for the best few questions? Cool idea pulserifle187 : )

I have my moments lol. Love the competition idea too. How would you get in contact with him or his staff ( ridley that is)?

I think it would be a good idea to work through Chris and the other staff.. if they ran the competition then we could all pose our questions they could pick the top few and them they could maybe approach him as representatives of the site and speak on our behalf I think its a great idea : )

it would be in his interests to at least write us a letter or something to that degree. There is over 14000 members on this forum and counting. And these members are the most dedicated of all his fans. I hope this idea flys

We would probably need to restrict it to 1or 2 questions per member for the competition there a lot of us here! ha ha ha ha ha ha imagine it..... it would be quite hard to come up with 1 really great pertinent question! gee.... ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha : D

I hearbye submit my question to this hypothetical competition. "Given that the production process of "Prometheus" generated all the ingredients for a masterpiece can you please explain to the public what went so wrong in the post-production editing process that turned the second half of the film into a mess that was both brilliant in its awe inducing content and anger and vomit inducing in its moment of poor editing, faulty logic and plot holes. Thank you."

myeh maybe not then.....

What, you don't think that Ridley would be receptive to my question? : ) Okay, let me add the following passage to the beginning of my question: "I paid to see "Prometheus" six times in the theaters and also bought both the 4-disc Blu Ray set and a Blu Ray player to watch those discs. I believe that those facts lend weight to my assertion that I am a fan of both "Prometheus" and your work in general. That said,..."

i think you love it too much maybe! and like a controlling possessive lover you want to mould the person/movie you love to your exact desire but ridley scott is a busy man and has a life besides work too i dont think he'd be receptive at all to your question/complaint i wouldnt! haha be content and accept what hes produced (or not but let it be) and let him get on with making more movies :)

I love that you've compared me to a controlling lover. Well done. After having watched all of the extras on the 4disc Blu-Ray set and after having seen a few curiosity raising production related photos and images on the internet I will NEVER be content regarding "Prometheus". I now know that this film had eternity and near-perfection within its grasp and that state of grace was lost to a series of follies whose details are still a mystery to the public. I writhe so much over this film's flaws because the parts that are not flawed comprise some of the most well-crafted filmic images I have viewed. This film would have been an all-time classic if not for the mistakes made in the editing process. Ugh!

Fixed the typo for ya Pulse. In answer to your question, I really don't know. I doubt he comes here or even knows of our existence, that said you never know. Perhaps you can just try mailing him a letter?

Hi Pulse! Great idea, but unfortunately to my understanding Ridley isn't too keen with online social media. You'd be more likely to get Jon Spaihts or Damon Lindelof on a forum, than Ridley Scott himself. Not to mention - he's very busy at the moment it's very very rare to have directors use a fan forum. However, that being said, we do have some Fox reps browsing the site ever so often, so perhaps your idea could get back to Ridley in some way.

intentional "However, that being said" Chris?

Ridley could be already here, using another username, etc. It would be smart marketing research at least, and a lot of fun for him to see what fans are saying about his work.

O-O looks around and wonders what Avy he would use : D

Just imagine, Ridley lurking on the forums as an undercover spammer - trying to sell us Ugg boots and lace wigs of superior quality!

[b]@caenorhabhditis[/b] - Intentional? Perhaps. haha This being an open forum, it's possible we could have some big names on the site and not know it. I can say for certain we have at least 2 members which directly worked on Prometheus.... But I'm not at liberty to share their usernames or displaynames. If Jon or Damon or even the rarity of Ridley Himself were to sign up on these forums, I would imagine they would use a different alias to hide their identities. Personally, I think it would be great to get the screenwriters, Jon Spaihts and Damon Lindelof on here to share their ideas about the film, or talk with fans about the story they created. Interviews are fun to watch, but to talk directly to those individuals is a whole new experience - one I think everyone here would be very eager to be a part of.

I would say he could get alot of good ideas from us....maybe not my alien vs star wars idea but perhaps others

lol Sir secret spammer/forumite! i reckon i can guess one at least of the ppl you wont name Chris but i wont why spoil things for them and thus us plus could be wrong..... pulserifle i reckon you are Ridley though!!!!!

@caenorhabhditis lol you're on to me! chris did you tell him.

It wouldn't be the first time a king has dressed down to rags in order to gain insight into social conditions. A director could gain a lot of feedback with no risk to themselves. But yeah Jon S. or Damon L. would be better choices since they would more likely be interested in interacting a little with fans especially for research into Paradise....

[i]her[/i] pulserifle lol

well just sayn..... *looks around innocently in case someone special is looking* I think a cool girl in a Tank would be great on Paradise..[ blushes and shuffles feet] O-O

haha well theyve already had a slightly useless glaswegian woman so thats me out haha

no offence to kate dickie but her character was pretty much elderlycare nursing assistant in space lol

Haha, I liked Ms Ford - I wish she had more of a presence! Shame she got hand palmed to death.

yeah the worm trick ridley played on her was funny surprised she didnt swear her head off!

Ha ha ha ha a ha ha ha ha ha ha ha awww Caenor... well... I need someone on the flamethrowers when Tankgirl returns to lv 233 to cleanse the planet someone has to recover Weyland.. you could get some awesome worm samples there!!!! : D

"you could get some awesome worm samples there!!!!" yeh or they could get me! :o id have the medpod staple mouth shut first which might suit some ppl but like you say someone needs to handle the flamethrowers hehehe fwoooomhhhfhhhh!!!!

Now yer talkin!!!! cranks up the Tank Oneironaut.. feel like driving??? the Tank managed to get airborne once... but that was a long time ago ; ) Turns up sound system and the Tank vibrates ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha Tankgirl puts on her goggles and smiles O-O

I'm pretty nifty with lighters, so uh do I qualify for flamethrower handling? Driving? no problem! As long as I get to play my Sun Ra playlist I'm good to go. It's going to be a bumpy ride! Sorry, Pulserifle! We kinda derailed your thread :P

XD sure!

I have one each side of the Tank You wanna take Starboard flamethrowers Oneironaut??... caenor has Port : ) that pretty seat over there with the bar and all the books thats Al's spot and the grill is Lones ..she cooks the meanest waffles : )

Starboard flamerthrowers? - I'm on it!

It's amusing to see how funny some of this site's members can be when they're not proposing how to cross-breed Damon Lindelof with a Hammerpede!

I think maybe sir Ridley Scott could be attracted with Tankgirl, Al and Lone, waiting for him with books, waffles and the best cocktails ^^

ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha I think so too Al : )

lol. lots of girrl power here which is fine by me. PS Oneironaut 717, Kate was Dr Ford. You are stripping her of her professional title, but then again maybe you are on to something there............

As long as I get to play my Sun Ra playlist @Oneironaut 717 Anybody that mentions Sun Ra music gets my vote to meet with Ridley. Glad to see there is some music Intelligence on the site..
