    Default I've waited all my life

    Well.. maybe not all, but a long long time..

    Is anybody as batsh*t crazy excited about this film as i am?? Ridley Scott did what he swore he would never do.. Which means he's been allowed to do it on his terms..

    more a prequel to alien singularly, Ridley took the elements he was most interested in and went with it. Set in the same universe as Alien, but it doesn't look like the "Alien" is in it, it's about the fossilised thing in the chair from the original

    Oh but the drive in is so cool, I remember back in the day mom would cook up two whole grocery bags of buttered popcorn in a cast iron pot, one for her and dad and one for my brother and I. What great fun on a summers evening!

    i know, the drive in where we go shows a double feature usually every night during the summer, and its reasonable when you figure i am paying about 7.50 a head, just to get in, so it works out better, just hate the drive back to the house at around 1:30/2 am

    oh yeah, he knew what he was doing with that trailer to go give just enough hints pointing to the original film, the hieroglyphics appearing gradually, the adaptation of the original trailers music, the "CHAIR" appearing, the ship crashing. I don't know if i can wait 4 months..
