To: Secret Agent Man

But no one can answer the big questions, secret agent man.

Scott did to his audience essentially what man’s creator did to him.

Supply your own answers.

Some will disagree with me on that, but that is the case when it comes to pure facts.

Personaly I think the movie is brilliant on a number of levels, but it is a cerebal affair, no doubt.

As far as prequel sequels go, whatever the case turns out to be, I’m eager, I am a fan of his work.

but cmon, the gal wouldn’t have been so ambulatory after that.

and the other sad thing is that none of the characters develop to get you to relate to them as people. unlike Scott’s first movie Alien. they are all there to spout crap, be a suit, or be fodder. i think i liked the captain best, he was the most relatable as a real person.

i just expected more from Scott because he did really well with Alien, and he had always wanted to do the backstory to Alien. thought he would have done as good if not better than Alien, and i don’t think he did. i still like his work, just a let-down and i thought he’d have done better.
