Before I get in too deep with having to defend my reasons for not being excited about this film, I would like to remind everyone that I'm not some sort of "all film creativity ended in 1985" naysayer.

I've openly welcomed some sequels, prequels, and remakes. Even to films that were iconic in my world. I'm completely ok with films that are new and\or current versions of older films, or are connected to older films.

However, I also have no problem what so ever with not contaminating my personal canon. I'm choosing not to see this one, but I'm in no way saying other people should stay away. It looks interesting and well made, plus Scott's resume speaks for itself. He doesn't disappoint.

In fact, two of his films are in my top ten and have been for roughly 30 years. One is a top five and it just happens to be the one Prometheus is tied to. For that reason, I won't take a chance on it tampering with Alien. Really, it's not that big of a deal.

At the very least, it's probably worth sitting through just to take in the incredible physical beauty of Noomi Rapace. She's intoxicating. With short red hair, even more so.
