AvPGalaxy Prometheus Blu-Ray Review

[Highland]

Now try explaining this to anyone not interested in this site.

"Look lads , that's me!!! LOOK!!!! Highland!!"

"Hell are you banging on about?! twat, who the hell watched these parts of the extras"

"Look the tag is me!!! #pauses Zooms in# # looks at mates with a I'm so cool look#  #signs into AVP galaxy#  LOOK lads!!!!!

"Loser, that could be anybody, lets stick the movie on eh?"

Thud.

[ThisBethesdaSea]

Can't wait to buy it!!!

[Vickers]

Can't we keep things nice, people? Just for once?

Amen.

I apologize, if it comes across that way.  I can be a bit cold or snarky at times, but during both my comments, I was really was trying to congratulate you. 

I was just a little irritated at your response to my best wishes, and when I didn't read ChrisPachi's post carefully enough - my mistake, I'm really sorry about that - I took another opputunity to voice my annoyance at your lack of gratitude.

I was not trying to make fun of you for defending the film - I even have defended the film a lot, as have I with many other films in the Alien quadrilogy.  I think it's a legitimately good thing to do - voice your opinion, and don't be afraid to say something different.  I'll add a smiley or something next time to diffuse the tension.  I was happy for predxeno when I thought he might've been in the extras too - a similar situation.  If you worked hard fighting for your opinion, you do deserve a part in the extras representing this large and great forum.

And judging my the 5 new replies - I think I just sealed a reputation of being an asshole when I was genuinely trying to be the opposite.

<p>The Prometheus Blu-Ray sets are officially out today in the UK and tomorrow in the US. For those that haven't got it yet, I recommend reading my <a href=\"http://www.avpgalaxy.net/alien-movies/prometheus/blu-ray-review/\">Prometheus Blu-Ray Review</a>. I still have mixed feelings about the movie but the Collector's/Special Edition is a great set to have. There's absolutely loads of extra content to keep you occupied.</p><p class=\"center\"><a href=\"http://www.avpgalaxy.net/alien-movies/prometheus/blu-ray-review/\"><img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-15235\" src=\"http://www.avpgalaxy.net/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2012/10/20121007.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"125\" /></a> </p><p>You're also in for a little surprise when you view the special features. AvPGalaxy makes an appearance in the last five minutes of the Making Of Prometheus documentary when they start talking about the fanbase. They show a selection of your posts and comments as well as some news posts. The site also appears in one of the Enhancement Pods: 'The Case of the Fake FanFic' which is about the Alien Harvest fan script. I'd like to take this opportunity to thank Charles de Lauzirika, Jon Mefford and are very own Corporal Hicks for making this happen. It's kind of a nice touch that after all our hard work, we're getting some recognition.</p><p>It's actually been ten years this week that I launched this website for Alien/Predator fans and we've come a very long way since then. We've followed four movies out of these franchises and are still here reporting news on the latest happenings with the series. Here's to many more years to come.</p><p><a href=\"http://www.avpgalaxy.net/?p=15232\">Link To Post</a>

That was just great to read from you, Darkness. I don't know why, but it just felt so grand coming from you. I would be minnus a lot of pals if you had not launched this site ten years ago. So, thank you, Darkness.

It's actually been ten years this week that I launched this website for Alien/Predator fans and we've come a very long way since then.

I agree wholeheartedly with the stance Darkness took on Prometheus in his review.  And while I have no doubt to the superb quality of the Blu-Ray presentation, I just can't bring myself to buy a movie that I think deserves less than 3 stars either.  The only thing that would compel me slightly to own this film is because of its connection to Alien. 

But then again, I could almost say that this film almost isn't a prequel either...

And under that notion I'm left asking myself if I would even purchase this film if the engineers were replaced by green martians and the space crafts resembled flying saucers instead.  Because that's really the only thing that binds this film to Alien. Without the visuals, this just isn't a prequel. So with that in mind, I just have to pass on this one...

Btw, I think it's great to acknowledge all of the success that this website has had over the years.  I am thankful to all of those who have made avpgalaxy what it is today.  Kudos to Darkness and the entire avpgalaxy team!

Weyland is a connection too.

Superb review, sums up the movie rightly,  flawed.   Sadly the extra scenes etc will not give rise to the hoped for fan edit,  the extra scenes are pretty pointless really.
