You are 100% right locoo. Some trailers these days are unbelievable...

Do you remember the feeling of going tot he cinema years ago and thinking to yourself "I wanna watch that, I'm gonna watch that one too ~ oh and that one too and that one!!!! (obv you never end up going to see them)"

Now watching the trailers in the cinema is like "wow wont bother going to see that now, or that, or that,"

alsio liked it but standard like most movies made for retards who only like many effects with way to many plotlines without any character development

but i still liked it, above avarage

totally agree. I feel like an oldie saying this but there is something with todays movies that make them all so much worse than top movies of 20-40 years ago. I believe it has to do with rising demands from movie companies that the producers HAS to please EVERY customer to increase ticket sales. They cant target a specific group of people and its extremely important that they reach the lower year rating in USA (pg 17 or whatever its called). Its sad, the only real masterpieces of movies made today are outside Hollywood (that has so much money and potential to make good movies).

Also agree with the trailer thing, most movies preshowed today at cinemare are like "meh w/e". Still looking forward to Batman (probably wont be great but decent) and Bilbo this year!

I agree, the movie was good, in an entertaining sort of way, but not great. Not bad, but not great. I'm tired of the cliche characters they keep putting in these space trek's. Sci-fi movies love to act like space-travel will become so common in the future that any idiot will be on board a ship, so they always have the corny characters; the wise guy, the angry guy, the "seen-it-all" veteran captain guy, etc. Although I will say the "Are you a robot?" line between the captain and Charlize was pretty funny.

I was always under the impression that this movie was floating around in Ridley's head since the first Alien, and they just didnt have the script to put it together. I wholeheartedly do NOT believe this anymore, and that Ridley simply begged for a script to be mashed together and this is the result we got. They did a good job pulling it out of their asses, but this was certainly never part of the original Alien lore. I also really hate how this movie's sole premise was nothing more than to start a new Alien franchise. Climbing on board the ship and blasting off for the alien's homeworld? Cmon. I dont want to see a sequel with a bunch of super sentient beings in hooded capes talking with puny humans about the existence of mankind and the origins of the universe etc. The mystery of the original spacejockey sitting in his funky chair was so creepy by itself, and then re-encountering it again was all I needed.

Anyway I do kinda dig the whole "engineer" concept, and that the aliens became sick of us and decided to start over by wiping us out. Something went wrong and they never completed their mission, then the last survivor in stasis is awoken by the very creatures he was supposed to destroy 2000 years ago, when they were still wielding bows and arrows, and now they have learned to travel the galaxy and even speak his language, and are still just as violent and reprehensible as the creatures they were before their destruction. He immediately goes into action mode to complete his mission, and at the end we see the birth of the modern xenomorph.

I refuse to watch trailers unless the move is coming out in like 8+ months.
