Ridley Scott's 'Prometheus' | Patreon #33

Sep 8, 2024

Kelsi and Trey explore one of the great 21st century sci-fi epics in Ridley Scott's 'Prometheus.' We discuss the divisive fandom of Prometheus and 'Alien: Covenant,' the recent reclaiming of Prometheus and Covenant due to the 'Alien: Romulus' financial success, how Scott's vision of a legacy prequel actually sets a blueprint for future franchises, the power of Michael Fassbender's theater kid performance as David, the parallel of corporate and religious zealotry between Peter Weyland (Guy Pearce) and Elizabeth Shaw (Noomi Rapace), and, of course, we explore the existential questions of life. Be prepared for a ~4 hour podcast with lots of heavy conversations and fun 'Alien' lore debates!
