    Prometheus may even be the best Alien film ever made.

    At the time of its release perhaps the original Alien was more inventive, but I’ve watched both well over 13 times each by now, and Prometheus has everything you get from Alien and more. The story of the latest film of the franchise felt like a money grab, and would’ve probably been better if it was adapted for television than the big screen. Ridley loves to spend time on world building, so his ego was probably hurt when Prometheus went in new directions while failing to meet the desired expectations.
