Finally gave Prometheus a full watch.
Still burns me how they handle anything to do with the “Engineers” or really anything have to do with the lore of Alien. I’d argue the Star Wars Prequels fit much better into the saga in terms of looks than Prometheus does with the Alien Trilogy. Like jeez, the technology/ships displayed is too flashy/futuristic, and so unlike anything we saw in the original Alien films where it’s a lot more rustic/muted. Way too jarring for something that happens, I assume, rather close to the timeline of Alien '79.

Surprisingly, I was interested in the journey of Elizabeth and David, but looking at the trailers of Covenant, it looks like that won’t be the focus and instead I’m going to get more of the same of what I just watched in Prometheus.
