Once again a look through wikipedia has lead to me another movie possibility. I was on Noomie Rapaces page this time and looked at her filmography to see if it had anything about a prometheus sequel and saw the name of the sequel and the year 2014 next to it. Whether it's true or not I guess the name of the thread can be changed should that be a fake name or what not but we know a sequel is most likely coming. I read that Scott is hoping to bridge the gap between the prometheus sequel and Alien so that'll be pretty cool to see IMO.
There are quite a few pages for a sequel, saw a facebook page for 'Prometheus 2: Paradise' so...who knows? But I heard the sequel is looking at a 2014/15 release date and by 2015 according to BTTF2 we'll have flying cars
The sequel has been confirmed for a looooong time. I just posted this in the first thread...
Now, I don't know if this means a writer has already been hired and is working on it, or if Ridley is laying out the general outline for someone else to fine-tune later or what, but it is extremely exciting.
If that's true, then people are idiots, because the film is about that and so much more... delving into not just the origin of the xeno, but the origin of everything. People should use some imagination and clues from the film to come up with their own theory for what's going on instead of just writing everything off as a plothole. Fans (of the Alien franchise in this case) would be a lot happier if they accepted things the way they are rather than bitching about the way they're not. That's my rant for today, 'cause I'm sick of people bitching about such a masterful piece of dark science fiction. To me it is the quintessential dark sci-fi film, handled with elegance and precision and with themes like no other. Films of this nature are precious and rare.

Honestly, had they done one or two other things well it would have been close to perfect. I literally wanted to go to space immediately after those amazing visuals.
I didn't really expect to see the xenos but the movie itself was pretty boring and the characters were idiots. Seriously the two guys want to run out of the cave cuz they see a body that's been dead for a billion years but then they want to play with an alive alien snake????
Apparently you haven't met too many people in your life. Many of them ARE idiots.. flawed and bizarre. Pathologies and psychoses on top of each other. It's true to life. They were smoking hash, too. There's many ways to make sense of it. If there's one thing in life that is unpredictable, it's human behavior.
LoL, dude. If you loved the flick, you loved the flick. But some of the actions the characters made in the film were outright nonsensical and really can't be defended.
