I think everybody needs to R.E.S.P.E.C.T. Sir Ridley Scott. If he directed Alien, all his films must be great. I heard he built the sets used in Alien with whatever material he could find lying around and then he went all MacGyver on them. He was everybody in Alien. Yes, everybody. He is in the all about everything school, for f**k's sake. But being the modest man he is, he credited other people anyway. He presented a wonderful cut of Prometheus to us. He collaborated with one of the best writers of all time to ensure that we get an amazing prequel. He set up the shots to be perfect in 3D. He didn't want the kids who snuck into Prometheus to be bored with mostly practical effects so he threw in lots of CGI because he really cares about the people of today. He also didn't want the kids to be bored with the pacing. Nobody likes a film that unravels slowly. And 3D and CGI are just as important as the stupid characters you guys want. This is 2012. He is in the all about everything school, damnit! The last 8 minutes of Prometheus tie in with Alien and those links are hidden very carefully, like little easter eggs. There will be a featurette that highlights these pixels and then you will be sorry that you ever criticized Prometheus. Wish's don't always come true but there will be some extra footage to shut you f**king whiners up. Because, nooooooo, the visuals just aren't enough for you are they? This was an epic cinematic experience that scared the living hell out of you. Nobody saw anything coming, admit it. After at least 17 more viewings of Prometheus, you will love it even more than Alien. Be grateful.
If you aren't grateful for Prometheus, leave at once. Only posts filled to the brim with praise are welcome.
You must all bow down at your Sir Ridley Scott shrines and ask for forgiveness for your ignorant trolling. When you are cleansed, you may return to discuss this masterpiece which is the birth of a new era of cinema.
