@jesushammer: I think that's what's great about Alien and Aliens. It shouldn't be another Alien. While they have many things in common, the tone is just as great in my opinion, but very different, as one is more quiet, isolated horror, and another is more intense action. I love both of the atmospheres. It gets the sci-fi setting down, as if it were 57 years later. Three tried to go back to Alien in a way, but it didn't do it well I think.
@ezekiel: I think if it weren't for the majority of dumb characters, some weird character interactions, and some bad dialogue, Prometheus would be as good as Alien and Aliens to me. The idea is very interesting to me. I love that they have taken a good universe, but are expanding on it beyond just the normal 'xenomorph is bad, and it will kill you' kind of story.
@probablytuna: Same universe, but it goes its separate way, which I actually really appreciate. Furthermore, no, both of them are being made. Prometheus 2 is still happening, this is also happening. It's pretty cool I think.
@mechakirby: That's fine I suppose. I just didn't like the tone they took them in terms of characters and setting, so for me, it doesn't help, but tarnish a fantastic universe. I liked Prometheus, I'm talking about three and Resurrection. I think three is better than Resurrection though.
@rollingzeppelin: Hm. That's the second time I've seen someone spell Xenomorph with a z.
