Stardate 08.28.2015.c: Will Prometheus 2 Surpass The Original?

8/28/2015

 
Picture
When I saw Ridley Scott's Prometheus theatrically, I was a bit puzzled over what to make of it.  Like all of Scott's films, it was visually exciting and filled with rich characters.  Looking back, I think some of my disappointment in the flick was the fact that for so much of the flick's production there was no explanation about whether or not it was a legitimate Alien sequel or not.  If I remember correctly, methinks it all boiled down to "taking place in the same universe," and -- were it really that simple -- I didn't quite understand what all of the previous denials were about.

In any event, Scott has mentioned many times that he's intent upon continuing that story, and apparently in a recent Empire Magazine interview with the revered director he's let it slip that, indeed, Prometheus 2 is soon to be on-the-way.

Minimally, I'll look forward to it.  Having watched it again on home video not all that long ago, I found a greater measure of appreciation for it.  It doesn't approach Scott's genius in handling other motion pictures, but it's definitely a worthwhile excursion deep into the realm of SciFi ... and, for that, I'm always thankful.
