Ridley Scott's fairly wacko views about extraterrestrial life and human origins are fairly well known, but I don't see how that matters when using the wacko beliefs as the maguffin of a movie. Who cares? It's an interesting maguffin as far as maguffins go ... but they are NOT the heart of the film - just the thing the characters are interested in that the audience is not really meant to care a fig about.


And I suppose what I thought was the set-up for the situation encountered in the original Alien movie was just a tease for how the actual set-up is going to be revealed in a sequel to Prometheus. UGH. My liking for the movie is plummeting minute-by-minute. At least I enjoyed it while I watched, but I don't think I'll be watching it again.
