Funny how many lines of those annoying lives have become very well known.

Doesn't make them good though does it

Huh?!? You would put aliens over alien I terms of quality? And depending on your idea of quality Prometheus could well be top, of the series it's the most visually stunning

...my idea of quality? Oh hello there, mister-i-make-silly-assumptions-about-other-people.

I felt Aliens was more tense and slightly more paranoid than the first film... and it just has better dialogue and character work.. the 80's action movie vibes may put some off.. but please do consider that these films are essentially Bmovie stories with Aclass moviemaking. They werent made to please pretentious twats. :laugh:

Prometheus just isnt as tight in it's storytelling as Aliens or Alien.

i agree that promtheus isnt as good as alien or aliens in terms of dialogue, but saying that aliens has better dialogue than alien is ridiculous. aliens had the typical cheesey corney cameron script that if it didnt make you cringe made you annoyed (Hudson, vasquez and drake all spout some bullshit lines that just take away from any realism that was accomplished in the first film). the script for alien was wound much tighter than aliens and was more believable. whilst i think aliens is a great film i dont think its a great alien film. as for me making assumptions about you, read my post wise guy. i didnt make any assumptions i just asked you what your idea was for what made aliens a more quality film than alien. and as for the 80s b movie/ a movie thing that had nothing to do with either of our posts

The funny part of this Prometheus threads is that allways someone is mentioning avp 1 :)

That was the last good movie in both franchises.

AVP and AVP:R both happened and both of them are not cannon. They have their own horrible movie cannon which died with AVP:R.

Spoiler
The cold hard truth.

I read your review, seems interesting. Although, the ProtoAlien doesn't really make alot of sense.

AvP has established that Xenomorphs have already existed for thousands of years, meaning that the creatures encountered in Prometheus could not have been ProtoAliens.

My only theory for these organisms is that, if they originated from this black goop, which obviously must contain genetic material, then perhaps, assuming that the Xenomorphs are a creation of the Space Jockey, these organisms came from leftover genetic material from true ProtoAliens made long ago.

Yes, my theory would be that xenomorphs were being "recreated" (not created) by the Engineers.

They're ignoring AVP.

Ridley lost his chance.
AVP will always be CANOOOOOOON!


But please, only AvP 1....AVP:R never happened, right?

Very good review I agree with pretty much all of it. Too many plot holes and unanswered questions and the terrible score detracted from what could've been a great movie.
