Official "Ridley Scott's Prometheus" Discussion Thread (Spoilers)

[Gully Foyle]

Wow, 7 hours of supplemental features? I think that's even more than the Blade Runner collector's edition . . .

Prometheus was a box office flop.

Current worldwide total is near $400 million on a $130 million budget.

Bad example.

Exactly. Stick to the lulz, squint.

********.

You've gotten quite good at describing yourself perfectly. I will give you that.

^^ Ramatuelle, is that you?

 

[CelticPredator]

400 million domestic....130 million dollar budget give or take.

130 + 130 = 260.

400 - 260 = 140.

So...it made triple it's budget. Since you want to be all hatey, I assumed that was a attack on the flick. But the flick won in the end.

Try to follow along short bus.

Prometheus was a domestic box office flop.

Look that up if you're still not clear. It flopped here in the states. Period. It made $126 million and some change and the movie studio doesn't get 100% of that. They get a percentage.

******.

 

[CelticPredator]

Yeah, here it didn't do so hot. But it made enough to warrant a sequel. So I don't le care.

Wow, you guys live on this board just waiting, eh? How sad.

And your Fu is still weak, grasshopper.

You & Steve Austin should stick to the ad feminam attacks on women . . . much more your speed.

And yes, the box office flop is getting a sequel.

Go figure.

I wish we had seen this look in the film.

 

[KneelBeforrSmallville]

I wonder why so many things were changed, And it doesnt seem like they didnt finish the effects shots or didnt have the $ to do so. Mabey they realized twords the end that they could do a sequel and make alot more money.

Fans were eating this up months before its release, i was one of them.

 

[CelticPredator]

^ There was always going to be a sequel (in mind at least).Ridley said he wanted to keep the rating down, so he could get more money.

Now, that means nothing here in the states, but overseas, it has a 15 rating so kids can see it. He made the film pretty simplistic with more ideas then answers. It seemed like he dumbed it down for children.

But he did state a extended cut. So i'm not worried the film will easily get better,

Already been discussed short bus. It's getting a sequel because of Ridley Scott. That's it. Anyone else, it would've been dead on arrival.

Fifield alternate look

Looks straight up like a Giger-style Alien right there.

 

[CelticPredator]

Absolutely true.

 

[cerealkeller]

I really wish they had kept that look for Feifeld. It would go a long way to tying the black goo to the creation of the xenomorphs. Just watched this through my preorder at Best Buy. I really liked the extended fight with Shaw and the Engineer at the end. I wonder why so much of this was cut? Every deleted or alternate scene I have seen I like more than the theatrical cut. I really hope we get an alternate version soon. Not that I didn't love the theatrical version, but the I just like the deleted/alternate takes more.

 

[Star Puffs]

I wish Ramatuelle would come back and let us know how she REALLY feels about this film.

Something like this I guess...
