Custodian
MemberOvomorphMarch 26, 2013So, according to a(n ever delayed) Colonial Marines game, there'll be a space scene in Prometheus 2 that plays like a scene out of Stargate Universe with battling convoys of rival spaceships SHOOTING LASERBEAMS AT EACH OTHER?
I mean, the ending of Prometheus (with the plasma-powered Derelict doughnutting backwards across the sky) was Star Wars-y enough, thanks. Please don't set this franchise in Space Opera territory. Alien was ALWAYS more intimate, more up your genepool, than this. And yes the derelict was flying BACKWARDS ... for me, at least, it had always 'flown' with its arms facing forwards. And let's not get me onto how I think the Space Jockey uses the Hyperspace Telescope to blend his machine with the currents of the universe to shift from here to there in a massive sexual orgasm of space rip.
This [i]franchise[/i] went so off the rails from the lovely uplifting horrific ENTIRE BODY RIBBED FISTING festival that the early Giger-inspired film promised. Where's the 'adult exploration of Alien sexuality'? Man, I'm sick of films for teens to watch. Give me back my 'adult cinema', ffs. And you all know what I'm talking about; those classic films like The Thing and The Fly and even Ichi The Killer or Audition or The Hunger, something with a bit of bite; a spine.
