I have to say I’d start panicking if I saw that in the streets.

They went full on horror with this one and I really like the director so I have some hope here.

Remember the panic storm set off by 2 artists for their Adult Swim guerilla ad campaign in Boston for promoting the 2007 Aqua Teen Hunger Force movie?

Wikipedia link

They just put signs that lit up around the city, and that caused a ruckus.


But sure, this is fine.

This franchise went off the rails with Alien 4, and Prometheus is one of the biggest turds ever squeezed out of an a-hole. I just don't think the core fan base cares anymore.

Honestly, after reading through that wiki page I think the Boston police handled that correctly.

They can't assume some random electronic devices aren't bombs solely because they have a cartoon character on them.

I just watched these movies for the first time this year, and I completely agree. They totally jumped the shark with that film.

Haven't seen any beyond 4 yet. Watching the Predator movies right now, then the AvP films, then the Predator and Alien movies that followed those.

Disney still has their hands on it.

Don’t know if I can support it.

Covenant maybe, but Prometheus is a masterpiece and I’ll die on that hill.

You'd panic if you saw a few random people wearing face hugger masks doing a clear viral marketing campaign in Times Square?

I hope it's good but the trailer that ran before before Deadpool and Wolverine in my theater seemed like it gave away pretty much every single major scare and plot point in the movie.

It's an Alien movie. The plot ain't gonna be too mysterious.

I just hope that the cast can deliver. It looks like C-rate teen slasher flick cast. No big-time, established names. Cool marketing though.

Hey, I like Alien 4! It’d weird sure, but ok. At least they tried something different.

Prometheus is dog shite

First reviews are out and I'm seeing a lot of people say there are a lot of risks taken in this film and that some people will love it while others probably won't. All are saying the final act is insane though. Ready to go see this Friday.
