Having said that, "Zeta II Reticuli is a moon just off Io" is total arse-wipe.
It disappoints me how he didn't seem to realise it's
the very same place he set his original film around. He should know this stuff.

Some random dude they grabbed off of IMDB...

This movie looks more and more stunning with each new snippet of footage and Fassbender's David seems to be emerging as one of the coolest characters ever - my prediction is that Fassbender completely steals the show with this one
Much like the technology in general, that particular use of cynical humour is starting to make him seem more advanced than the models like Ash and Bishop. Which, y'know, I can deal with, but like I've said before, it's going to make the series look weird, as a whole, when you try and view them as one long continuity.
I know Ridley wanted to just get out all the shiny new toys, but this project keeps feeling like they should've hired someone to look over the technological concepts to see if they fit in with the other films. I keep getting the strangest feeling that, by the end of this, we'll be left with weird nagging questions like, "Why didn't Hicks just tell everyone to use their old XZ-9 Bio-Neutralisers? Things sure would've been a whole lot simpler..."
