Watched Prometheus the other night and thought it was fantastic! BD quality was fantastic (wish I had seen it on the Big Screen now) I have read mixed reviews about this and conversations about people being confused? All I can say is stick with the X-factor then if your confused by an intellectual plot, good acting, great effects and thought provoking ideas. Immediately after watching this I thought I could of sat and watched it again. Great film with some great gore moments. Anybody else pleasantly suprised by this or dissapointed?

I also enjoyed Prometheus. And like you I thought it looked and sounded fantastic on Bluray.Will check it out again now that I'm off work for the next two weeks. One of the best scenes for me was the female character trying to abort the fetus inside her. Very intense I thought. Decent script and good acting did it for me plus some great gore scenes. |

I have (I think) four films to go in the Hitchcock: Masterpiece Collection and they have all been either very good or great. I'm not sure if it's because I was expecting the worst from some of the HD encodings, but even the picture quality on The Man Who Knew Too Much and Marnie are no worse than upscaled DVD – they're certainly not horrendous. As I don't own Torn Curtain or Topaz on DVD, it's good to have them in this collection. When I've finished watching that, I'll either go straight onto the Alfred Hitchcock Collection (North by Northwest, Strangers on a Train and Dial M for Murder), the Robocop Trilogy or a marathon viewing of the A Nightmare on Elm Street 1-7 Blu-ray set. Decisions, decisions!

Was part of the reason you didn't like it because you watched it with high expectations and felt let down?

I had no expectations. I kind of hoped Ridley Scott would find the form he hasn't shown since 1992, but that was about it. I didn't like it because it was boring, overlong, the plot was badly developed and stretched very thin, the acting was mostly rubbish, the idea was utterly stupid, it was hollow and empty...it was just a very bad film. I felt like I wasted a lot of time sitting through it. Other than a few pretty looking scenes it had no redeeming qualities at all. |

It's strange how two people can watch the same film and have completely polarising opinions, but that's what makes talking about them so much fun.
