Oh oh, d'uh...I meant...that it would remain fresh...whoops. ;)

Ah, yes, I actually wondered about that, though.

Prometheus' philosophy was too profound for AICN's Capone in one sitting. You need two, mortals:

Out of curiosity.. is this actually getting better reviews than Alien back in 79? (Alien did get a mixed response)

Anyway:

io9 review http://io9.com/5916778/the-best-part-of-prometheus-isnt-the-aliens Positive but points out the flaws.

and Richard Roeper's review http://www.richardroeper.com/reviews/prometheus.aspx Positive, almost gushing with love.  :laugh:

Fox has probably made Bluray.com take down their review unless they had to do a server rollback. Not sure what their reasons are...they cant use C&D for reviews unless they mention deleted scenes and DC for the bluray.

You remember what they were saying?...those peeps are usually spot on.


Im wondering if Fox plan is to triple dip. Release this watered down version in theaters......release an extended cut on disc, rerelease the 'DC" in theaters.....release that on disc..wait a while...then release an unrated version on disc.

Good for Roeper. It's taken me 4 viewings, but I'm beginning to feel his love for the film :)

God, do I hate bluray.com.  That's hilarious.  Screw that site.

Roepers review isn't there? Someone copy and paste it?

Blacklabel

It's a video review.

Worst Previews give the film a 10/10

I don't get how serious critics can rate the film so highly. It's not utterly terrible, but any film school dropout could tell you that the script is crap and the editing sucks. These read more like gushing fan reviews than objective critiques.

IMHO.

Judging a film based off fanboy reaction is hardly recommended.

ChrisPachi looks like it's more fans mixed about the movie then critics.
