We here in the UK are a little bit more relaxed in our talk-show formats than most staple American stalwarts like Leno or Letterman. For some of our American cousins that can be a little jarring, but sometimes it allows for more insightful discussions to take place. On this particular occasion, Mark Wahlberg was on the Graham Norton Show, a BBC Friday night talk show, where he was plugging his new passion project Broken City (Rotten Tomatoes 25%) and was not accustomed to endless free bottles of … [Read more...]

I'm sure there are many of you out there who, like me, have a million different questions after seeing Ridley Scott's Prometheus. And some great analysis and theory has been mulled over with a fine tooth comb, see Brad Brevet's great article at Rope of Silicone. But only so much analysis can be performed before you hit a stumbling block, and require a little more in-depth research. I am of course referring to the mysterious monologue that android David speaks to the alien 'Engineer' in the final … [Read more...]

Continuing with the ongoing viral marketing campaign for Ridley Scott's Prometheus, 20th Century Fox has released an extensive faux-commercial for the David 8 android. Featuring Michael Fassbender pulling off an incredibly eerie robotic David - Fassbender has stated before that he based the android mannerisms on Olympic high diver, Greg Louganis, who was known for his extreme control of posture with absolute efficiency in movement, which seems to match well with the mindset of an artificial life … [Read more...]

2012-movie-prometheus

Prometheus, the follow up to Ridley Scott's 1979 film Alien, has just launched its first international trailer today. Written by LOST creator Damon Lindelof and Jon Spaihts, the story precedes the events of Alien, but is not directly connected to the films in the Alien franchise....so half way between a reboot and a prequel then. The cast looks pretty freaking cool, with Charlize Theron, Michael Fassbender (of Shame), Idris Elba (The Wire's Stringer Bell), Guy Pierce and Noomi Rapace (of the … [Read more...]
