Finally, Ridley Scott Shines a Little Light on His Mysterious Prometheus Project
I know we’ve all been wondering what Ridley Scott’s mysterious, barely talked about movie Prometheus is about, but finally, here’s a small featurette that gives us the barest glimpse into what may or may not be related to his seminal movie Alie— OH FUCK IT. WE KNOW WHAT PROMETHEUS‘ DEAL IS, RIDLEY. STOP EXPLAINING IT TO US OVER AND OVER AGAIN. AND STOP SHOWING US NEW FOOTAGE, TOO. Hell, I don’t even feel like I’ve already seen Prometheus anymore, I feel like I’ve seen it twice. And unlike Avengers, I didn’t have that good a time.
