After geeking out during some brainstorming during classes today I had to mellow with a movie that y'all might have heard of...
It was really geeky cool. I was impressed by Ridley Scott's film, though I didn't see it in 3-D (the Sarver cinema doesn't have 3-D yet but I had some nice geeky talk with the manager there since I'm always curious about things). Nice flick to check out on an afternoon matinee for $5USD. I'll write 'em a "Thank You" letter. :-)
It's the kind of movie that you just watch and think about while watching. The numerous connections to "Alien" were nice, though. And at least the first part of the "corporation" was uncovered. I'd love to see how the sequel to this will venture out to expand and connect with the known canon.
I hope Ridley stays on board. This was quite good but still needs a bit more movie to flesh things out further.
Now I have to consider tweaking my home theater setup down within the dungeon. And I just popped "Alien" from that freakin' huge 2003 Alien Quadrilogy set (I really didn't like having to "unwind" the package just to get one freakin' flick).
It was a very, very good day. I'm satisfied. :-)
