How is it NOT a prequel to Alien?

Theyre making another for 2017...
Prometheus was a mess because he stupidly let that Lost writer touch his script and ruin it.
Ridley Scott didn't want to make a prequel to Alien. He wanted to make a movie about Space Jesus, and how aliens get made over humans killing Space Jesus.
The producers didn't want a movie about Space Jesus, because that's a stupid idea. They wanted a prequel to Alien, because that would sell movie tickets.
So they compromised and made a movie about how aliens are mad at humans, the implication being they killed Space Jesus, and so the aliens also make Alien.

STUPID PRODUCERS!

And?
That a series of prequels will exist doesn't make them any less prequels.

Not really. Strong evidence that asteroid/comet seeded life on earth so it's not that fantastic of a story. Movie would have been 10/10 if it had an actual writer instead of a hack.
Why was the enginer hostile?

>Ridley Scott didn't want to make a prequel to Alien
Scott intended to make a direct prequel to Alien. However FOX wanted to distance the project from the Alien series and brought in Lindelof. He basically molested the script and de-Alien'd it. That's what it feels like a disjointed mess a lot of the time.

>strong evidence that an asteroid comet seeded life on earth
There's literally no evidence that happened. Furthermore, that's not what's depicted in the movie. Furthermore, the whole concept of "panspermia" only dislocates the origin of life to some other location, it doesn't explain it. Furthermore, the Biblical myths of Creation and Jesus are two completely different and separated stories. Furthermore, we're talking about Space Jesus, not Space Creation.

He was in hibernation, posting on 4chan for the duration of it. When he came out, he was surrounded by normies.

What's wrong with jaegermeister?
>>70722055
its for 14 year olds who 'party'
one of the biggest disappointments of younger cinema history.
inb4 people defending this absolute turd of a movie.
>>70721164
Ridley Scott is 78 years old. story doesnt mean nothing to him because his mind can only cope with getting the visuals right.

>FOX wanted to distance the project from the Alien series
Do they hate money?
>>70721164
Because a he's literally a senile old man who has no idea what the fuck is he doing.
The fact the new movie synposis is just a copy and paste of Prometheus proves it. Give the fucking franchise to a director whose a fan of the old movies or just let it rest.

stop trying to appear intellectual you mong

>Do they hate money?
Either that or they must be fucking retarded. It shows how out of touch they are when they didn't anticipate the excitement for it when Ridley Scott said it was being made.

The waterhead studio execs thought that audiences would be tired of Xenomorphs after AvP.

Because he wanted to be deep.

>Strong evidence
There's no evidence. It's just one of many theories for how it could have started that ancient alien retards like to enlarge.
It's such a fucking meaningless theory, too. There's literally no meaningful difference between earth originating on our planet, or life originating on another planet and then ending up on ours through a comet. Because if it could happen on a different planet, and that life could survive on our planet, then there's nothing to suggest that life couldn't be created on our planet. It's just an added completely needless step because there's people who think it's more fitting or whatever for life on earth to arrive from an outside source.
