In terms of continuity, she looks weird.Maybe they're not long out of hypersleep - doesn't her character reportedly spend time throwing up after she's woken up. I have to say, I look less than fabe when I've been chucking up first thing of a morning.

If you have ever tried to convey information to people to prepare them for something, you normally do it before you get to wherever you are going. You don't want to have to constantly correct people about what they need to be doing.
Quote from: Vickers on May 18, 2012, 06:16:37 AMHonestly, I don't find Fassbender that attractive. He's got a certain charm to him and he has a decent body but his face isn't all that (in my opinion). Logan Marshall Green is a little more attractive, I'll admit. He reminds me of Tom Hardy who I like but he's still not one of my favourites.But when it comes down to acting, looks don't count for anything. It doesn't matter if you're supermodel material or need to put a paperbag on your head - if you can't act, looks won't mask anything or sway my judgement. Charlize Theron is beautiful and she's one of the strongest actresses of her generation. She is a chameleon and even if she's acted in some mediocre films, she invests in her characters 110%.So attractiveness and acting don't go hand in hand - not for me, anyway.I don't question Ridley Scott's talent but nobody is perfect and people can make bad judgement. Ridley might have seen something in Logan Marshall Green he liked but ultimately it might have been a choice that was the weakest link in the casting. I have nothing personal against him. I liked him in Devil but I don't think he's on the level of Fassbender, Rapace and Theron.Maybe at one point in the film I'll change my mind on his acting and character. Stranger things have happened.At the end of the day, different strokes for different folks.
