Ridley said in an interview in EW last month that it is SET IN THE same universe as Alien, but it is NOT AN ALIEN movie. There will be some sort of tie in near the end, but it will not be about them.
I am getting an Event Horizon type vibe from everything I have seen and heard. It is about a group of Humans who travel to a distant location to discover the origins of life? the universe? not sure what else.
If you like sci-fi then read Albert Bester’s The Stars my Destination and Philip K. Dick’s Ubik. These two sci-fi writers outclass all others. Bester only wrote two novels but Dick wrote a dozen good ones.
[quote=“NinerAdvocate, post:16, topic:26091”]Another new trailer yesterday. For the few people who havent seen it, I would advise not to. I think it gives away far too much of the plot.
It looks great, but the story has been completely spoiled.[/quote]
It couldn’t possibly spoil it more than the fact that we already know it’s a prequel to Alien. So we see a ship crash that we know crashed from Alien.
