The face part opened up, but the "ears" pop open and uncover whenever they're trying to listen closely.

I any case, armored just means they have some resistance to small arms fire, like the bugs in Starship Troopers or xenomorphs in the Aliens universe. Unless the monsters in this movie are covered in adamantium, I find it hard to believe that they can wipe out the world's militaries in such a short time.

Also, they would have to defeat the world's armies first, as securing the food supply would be one of the top priorities of any army. No military is going to sit around waiting to slowly starve to death.

"the grimey, sweaty, truck stop bathroom that is the Alien universe"

You seem to think that would be a bad thing.

The Rings books are some of the most amazing fiction ever. That's to say, they are rich analogies for real day-to-day life. The story of a truly alien universe can be found at the end of a microscope where no creatures have anything we can identify as pride or rage or homes or property. Good fantasy, OTOH, mirrors real life in moving ways.

Memorizing all that crap and thinking it's worth something, however, I don't get.

I generally liked the movie. I didn't think it was full of holes, and anything not explicitly explained you could give some thought and discuss with others, or accept as currently unknowable. I was okay with the ride. The "Alien" universe continues to unfold and I look forward to the next chapter.

Oh! Well then it could be as good as Alien Resurrection then. Or Aliens Vs. Predator.

Noooooo. Not at all. New film, new ideas, merely set in the Alien universe.>> ^artician:
I don't get it. Isn't Prometheus (the film) just another "reboot" film?
