but I have to, how annoying was Noah? I so wanted to like that movie, but it was just infuriating!

The Alien in the orginal Alien does the same (not turning into Cthulhu, but growing rapidly to a large size with no obvious nutritional intake - I seem to recall the novelization going into more detail about that though).

I'm happy to see I'm not the only one who can only carry suspension of disbelief so far... I haven't seen Noah, guess I know now that I'll only watch it if it's available for free and I happen to have nothing better to do...

I guess the speed-growth might include some sort of extra nutritious internal yolk sack or something. Though it would still leave the mommies emanciated corpses since the fetuses grow extremely rapidly as well... That was another thing that bothered me a bit by the way - I know Prometheus is a sort of "same universe as Aliens" kind of movie, but the "alien in my belly", "lone female survivor" and "except for the head of a guy who also survived" just seem a bit too close to the Alien movies. Though if I had actually ever watched all of them maybe I'd feel differently

wasn't Prometheus a prequel? god I should never watch movies again!

It's sort of a prequel though there seems to be debate in the "Alien community" as to it being acceptable as such or totally off

You should too watch movies again! I'm gonna see the Hobbit this week! (I hope!)

phew! haha

I can't wait to see The Hobbit, but i'm going to wait until it's last few showings as I can't stand all the stupid people in the cinema. The last couple of movies I've seen have been ruined by the other cinema goers, and not just young ones.

yeah people can be annoying
But where I live the movie will only show 4 times, and I can't go the first 2, so I'm hoping for Friday but if I can't go I'll have a final chance on Sunday.
