Like The Avengers amirite
Oh I agree, especially when people just look at percentage and not average rating. But meh.
I'm sure I'll love it anyway, fuck what the Sun give it.
Don't feel so lonely, 3D movies really trouble me, the image lose in contrasts and I feel a general fatigue after about 30 minutes (and not only an eye fatigue).
This is disruptive because I feel I'm not enjoying the movie as much as I would have in 2D
So, for Prometheus, I am intentionally avoiding the 2 big cinemas close-by (and playing it only in 3D) to go further to a small cinema that plays it in 2D.

And I just hope I like the movie, lol
Why so specific?
Personally my expectations for this film are rock bottom that way I'm sure to like the film even if it's not very good.
I feel that this is a sensible approach that most people should adopt.
Ridley Scott doing sci-fi? Check.
Looks like Alien? Check.
Hot Charlize Theron? Check.
Hot Noomi Rapace? Check.
Hot Idris Elba? Check.
Hot Michael Fassbender? Check.
Hot space jockeys? Check.
It will be the greatest movie ever written.
I was being flippant more than anything, but I think it'll be high scoring. A lot of things coming together just make me think it'll be well received.
I couldn't give a fuck how it is, just playing an alternative to box office games I suppose!

I think the critic scores will be good enough. I just hope it makes a great killing at the box office to secure sequels and really open up the field to similar films. The last science fiction film I can remember that has Prometheus type vibes is Sunshine.
This is Ghaleon, last survivor of HaloGAF. Signing off.
What a bad movie....
This better be sarcasm.
It is fact.

I'll never understand the hate this movie receives.

Outside of the racing scenes it was a pretty unbearable movie.

Here we go again.
What movie is that? Cars 2?

Bah! So THAT'S what I've been thinking of.
There's a difference between recognizing a bad movie and hating a movie. Speed Racer was a bad movie. I hated Matrix 2&3.

Forget what we were watching last night, lots of flipping around, but saw a Prometheus commercial that seemed designed only to explicitly describe what I thought must be a major spoiler. Maybe it isn't to some, but I won't tempt anyone with it here, watch out though for that cm.

This thread has had the strangest order of topics...
Some people actually like IMAX purely for the 3D experience even when a film has no IMAX scenes.

Someone on AVPGalaxy saw the film today:
He said its good until the last 20 minutes and then it veers off into a bit of a mess.
he also said
I don't know if its legit but people think it is.
NOTE: I won't post the full review here because I don't want anyone to accidently click it all. the spoiler section above is actually not a spoiler but i want to keep the excitement up

Reviews can spoil a film, best to go into the film untainted.

Here is the review:
http://www.avpgalaxy.net/forum/index.php?topic=43695.0
DONT CLICK IT UNLESS YOU WANT TO BE SPOILED!!! you have been warned. This person attended the May 28th screening (Today) of Prometheus.
Again: You have been warned. He is discussing the movie in that thread.

How spoilery is it?
Edit: Fuck it, I read his review. That dude types horribly. And
he's borderline crying.
Jesus Christ there's some spoilers in this thread (skimming random pages). X'ing that page.
He seems to be pretty disappointed but I'm not going to read spoilers to find out why. I don't really care about the bridge between this and Alien though, so if it's a fandom thing then whatever.

They've been making it pretty clear for a while now that it's not a prequel in any sense, though it's set in the same universe. I can't think of a worse person to review a movie than an Alien fanboy, so I'm going to wait for something more objective - my own opinion come 3am on Friday morning.
As sculli has pointed out, liemax provides better 3D than true IMAX screens, that is why IMAX is not good in this scenario.

That sounds like some Grade A Lindelof Lost bullshit.
I hope he's wrong about the last 20 minutes going to shit.
What does that have to do with lost?
People think that everything that guy is making or having a hand in is lost *rolleyes*
d'Alien? what the hell is that!?

Fixed.
I haven't actually watched any 3D films with a Liemax screen, It's either real IMAX or UltraAVX using RealD 3D. I'm guessing Liemax does not use RealD 3D at all and the 3D effect is more like real IMAX but on a smaller screen with a brighter/sharper picture? I assume that while the image will not take up an entire real IMAX screen due to it not having any scenes shot in IMAX, a real IMAX screen would still provide a larger picture (more immersive) than Liemax.
Liemax is RealD in most of my experiences.

LieMAX is IMAX 3D.
