Prometheus the review

The time is 3:30, just home after watching the midnight release of the alien prequel... Or not
This film, while technically being a prequel, does not really explain the reason behind alien but does bring a few more questions.
This however is not a bad thing. Quite far from bad actually. Prometheus does NOT leave off where alien begins, but rather sets the series up for another film.
If now you're reading bad grammar and poor workmanship I apologise but it is half 3 and I am knackered.
Prometheus takes us to new places, in strange but epic ways, Ridley Scott leaves this film in a sort of prequel/stand alone limbo. Yes the film takes place before the setting I alien and does sort of explain the space jockey but does not leave us in the right situation for the start of alien. Fans will have varying opinions on this film, some will say it explains everything when you read between the lines, others will say it doesn't really explain anything... Both are correct, you need to watch the series closely to really understand the explanation; but you can come to this film anew (why would you do this... Get your ass in and watch alien you freaks) or just have watched the alien films once and not really paid attention to the films dialogue, and just enjoyed the alien eating the poor crew... Point is Ridley Scott has made a well rounded film for all the family to enjoy.
I really enjoyed this film and would recommend this to anyone an everyone... Definitely twilight fans as they need to know what good acting/writing/directing is.
9.5/10 brought down by my disappointment in the finale scenes not setting up alien perfectly... But that's just me



Also the new spider man trailer was on; do not watch that trailer if your planning on going to see the movie! Yes the film looks cool, but I pretty much just watched the entire thing in the wrong order... What where they thinking, IDIOTS!!!

Tv

You would have thought that at this point in time the people behind TV shows/adverts would have sorted out the cut off points around the edges of the screen... Always cutting off parts of words
Not really important but you could take this as a television company review; absolutely shite, wouldn't bother if I were you!

Evile



 

Pronounced E-vile!!! \m/
This band is brilliant, considering of course that you like a little bit of thrash metal... Imagine if you took Metallica after their third album, told them not to change and then got dave to come back from megadeth. I know your thinking if only... While that's got your juices going you need to realise that's not what's happened, yes that's the sort of sound Evile have produced over their three albums but with a twist of Brit, which as a proud (not really) Englishman I think makes them sound better!
More to the point they still play the small gigs, and more recently a festival or two, which is even better again... I myself haven't missed an Evile gig at the Manchester academy in four years, the first being four years ago I had to sneak out to get to the gig, great time!
As they've said themselves, but it, download it, go on YouTube, just give em a listen, it's worth it.
I would start off with enter the grave or thrasher from their first album if your new to Evile

Go forth and listen to Evile! Cun7ychops demands it!!
RIP Mike Alexander
