Did You Hate ‘Prometheus’? Watch A 4-Minute Long Hate Fest!
I loved Ridley Scott’s Prometheus. Shit, I’ve watched it twice now on Blu-ray, along with nearly all of the extra features. At this point, I will never be convinced to join the haters.
But the haters exist, and rightfully so. The leaps in logic in the 2012 sci-fi horror prequel to Alien are out of control. In fact, the plot-holes are so out of control that we’re now in 2013 and people are still bitching about it.
Below we’ve added a 4-minute long video that attempts to point out everything wrong with the Noomi Rapace, Michael Fassbender, Charlize Theron and Idris Elba starrer. While some of the complaints are straight up ridiculous, there are quite a few that had me cracking up. It says something about the movie that we’re still talking about it nearly a year later…
“Mythic Quest” actor Chase Yi has been cast in a lead role in Paramount and Blumhouse’s new Paranormal Activity movie, Deadline reports this afternoon.
Ian Tuason (Undertone) will direct the eighth installment in the Paranormal Activity film franchise, set to release in theaters May 21, 2027.
As for character details or plot, well, those remain scarce at this stage.
While we wait for further news on whether the demonic Toby will reappear, Tuason previously revealed to Bloody Disgusting that technology will play a huge role in his vision: “Technology — camera technology — has advanced to a point where it’s become a big part of the film and what I want to do there.”
It’s fitting, especially as it was the original Paranormal Activity that inspired the filmmaker’s haunting debut, undertone.
Paranormal Activity, created by Oren Peli, first hit theaters in 2007. Its groundbreaking minimalist approach to found-footage ghost stories has spawned a seven-film franchise that’s grossed nearly $900 million worldwide.
Franchise originator Oren Peli will produce for Solana Films, with James Wan and Jason Blum producing for Blumhouse Atomic Monster. Michael Clear and Judson Scott will exec produce for Blumhouse Atomic, with Alayna Glasthal overseeing the project for the company. Other exec producers include Steven Schneider for Room 101, Inc., Dan Slater and Cody Calahan.
Also on the way soon is the Paranormal Activity stage play.
