Still not watching the newer ads on TV...marketing jerks seem to be putting too much into the previews...I want a near spoiler-free experience with this movie...but already I've accidentally heard a bit more than I really wanted to know. Last several days, when the ad would come on the TV, I'd mute it and hold my hand in front of me eyes for the duration of the ad! Silly and juvenile I suppose, but darn it I want the experience to be as Ridley Scott intended, not some preview editor's choice of "make it look like they'll want to see it desperately". Why? Because he's the artist/visionary and I trust him to make a great movie WAY more than I trust any preview editor! I wonder if they discover the meaning of life actually is 42? _________________________ POLITICS, WAR, ECONOMY, CONTROVERSY! and other heated discussions and debates in the PWEC sub-forum at the bottom of this forum main page.

Bib4Tuna Jagged Little Pill Member Registered: 04/29/04 Posts: 2106 Loc: NC, USA	Stoked to see this tonight at the midnight show. Unfortunately, I have been contaminated by some spoilers. It seems the weakest point is the plot... here is a picture of what the plot looks like... Click to reveal.. Specifically, the part that is not cheese... I don't mind movies that leave you to ponder some answers... heck, even to make up your OWN ideas and conclusions- as long as there are logical elements in the movie to drive you there. However, the feeling I get is that this Lindelof guy (writer) gave it a LOST kind of mood and direction to the plot. I happen to NOT LIKE LOST!! _________________________ "Hello. It's me, Jesus.
