fairly long read, but really interesting for anyone who cares about the (possible) deeper meaning behind the movie.


Probably the most comprehensive analysis I've come across, but it still doesn't explain everything. I really enjoyed the film. I'm still thinking about it which is the sign of something great IMO. I'm tossing up whether or not I should see it again after reading that analysis.

Hidden: show
The theory that the back goo is psychic is a little far fetched. Although I love the connection to a Space Jesus I find it hard to believe the news of his crucifiction travelled light years and influenced the black goo on LV233 to suddenly turn bad.

Also, why were the engineers running into the goo room? Surely that would be a bad idea? Why didn't the holo recording capture the image of their pursuers? Weren't there 2 other engineers that made it back to the ship? Did they both die in stasis? I have many more questions yet to come.


I'm looking forward to the "presequal" as someone put it. I guess we get the sequel to Bladerunner first though.... I hope Ridley doesn't get too old before then

Great acting and presentation. Lacklustre story.

I'm not a huge fan. It was okay, I guess.

see this is what I've been hearing everywhere and its so obviously attributed to the useless writer from Lost.
