The as-yet-untitled new Alien project received a working title in December 2010 – Paradise. It wasn’t long before that was replaced with the film’s existing title, Prometheus. Scott spoke cryptically about the film, revealing that while Alien provided a jumping-off point for the film, it would be its own beast.
“By the end of the third act you start to realise there’s a DNA of the very first Alien, but none of the subsequent Aliens,” the director recently told Filmophilia. “To tell you what that is is a pity, and I'm not going to tell you, because it's actually pretty good, pretty organic to the process and to the original. But we go back, we don't go forward.” Does that mean we can expect to see the xenomorph, then? “No. Absolutely not,” Ridley confirms. “They squeezed it dry. He did very well. [laughs] He survived, he’s now in Disneyland in Orlando, and no way am I going back there.”

Just out of interest, do most people tend to track down a review of a major film before going to see it? I'll usually read one if i come across it, but don't generally track down reviews of the big films i'm going to see. If a film gets a bad review (or, i suppose a really positive one), would it have an affect on how you enjoyed the film? If a major film reviewer, such as the mighty Total Film, either raved about or completely dismissed a new blockbuster, would you find yourself almost having to agree with them while watching the film too? i sometimes have watched a film thinking "the review said this was awful, therefore i should also find it awful, but i'm not" or vice-versa with a good review.

I tend to pay attention to just 2 reviews.. Empire and Total Film. Normally I'll just read the last bit (at the bottom with the star rating) and then read the whole thing after I've seen the film. With something like Prometheus the overall rating won't have any affect on whether I see the film not.

'Another reason it’s unlikely to happen? Ridley Scott’s going back to “the planet”, or LV-426, himself, and he’s left Ripley at home…' Ah, but he hasn't. I believe the planetoid in Prometheus to be LV-223, or LV-233. Same system, different rock.

Still, what's a planetoid between Zeta Reticulans? Chin chin!
