Where is all the religious bullshit in the movie coming from? There is none of that in the orginal Alien.
The magnificence of the original film was the claustrophobic nightmare of the working class and the horrors that are raw and sudden in their meager existence. And no I'm not a communist. The original Alien was the first SF movie--as I recall--that portrayed not a spaceship full of scientists but a spaceship full of working class schleps.
I was sorely disappointed in the hokum aspect of this new film. The screenwriters--and producers who encouraged them--had no feel for the original Alien. The 3D was awful as well. A real downer. If you think there's some important messages buried beneath this load of crap, you need to go listen to some music. Sincerely...
