Ridley Scott - Prometheus - Alien

Why?

It's a big why? Maybe we all don't want to know the real reason. Inconvenient utility bills usually land around the same time as a Robert DeNiro comedy. Nuff said.

Alien was released in 1979. At the time it shocked and stunned audiences. Without any Internet hype, media attention it quietly worked it's way through a mainstream cinema audience and scared seven shades out of them.

It will never happen again.

Never mind a back story. 'Ever realise you've been had?'.

Enjoy what was, revel in young audiences seeing that for the first time. Give the young generation something magnificent which belongs to them! Enough of the re-hashes and re-works and re-imaginings.

A new imagination please....and soon...because the old people are bored too....
