Guy Piercing cheekbones (ha!) played the old guy that funded the expedition. I thought maybe the aliens were going to able to reverse aging or such, which would explain casting a young guy as an old guy - to be changed into a young guy. But NOPE, he remained an old guy....

If I remember correctly the character played by Guy Pearcing-cheekbones was an android, I think the makeup was to that effect, and not old. I do like the panspermia idea of planet population though.

It's strange for me to see her in anything else - I miss the hair, the eyeliner, the tattoo...<br />I never read much about Prometheus from the blogosphere, but I did have high expectations from Ridley Scott. And yes, biblical/spiritual themes were suggested, but like other aspects of the movie, undeveloped IMHO. I think the whole father/daughter thing was supposed to be some big reveal that also fell flat. I'm not sorry I watched it, and I'm up for a P2.Abbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05853360875281742784noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3168047058963833173.post-25402188911030117202014-12-13T18:17:01.441-07:002014-12-13T18:17:01.441-07:00YEs, I saw it a few years back.

I did not see it as epic saga as some blogs have surmised and did not see the underlying meaning/transition of what each death meant. I just was into a Noomi Rapace (Girl with the Dragon Tattoo) thing at the time. Interesting plot line, character development. Prometheus 2 should be an interesting follow up. agg79https://www.blogger.com/profile/08925069219602681862noreply@blogger.com
