I think I will see this

Earth. Year 2058.

Archaeological digs in Africa reveal alien artifacts that humans were genetically engineered by a advanced alien race (space jockeys). These "Alien Gods" also terraformed Earth in order to make it habitable for their human creations. Amongst finds are coordinates to the Alien God's home-world, to Paradise. Months later the Weyland Corp launch the spaceship PROMETHEUS and his crew, into deep space to make first contact. Thanks to faster than light travel a few years later the PROMETHEUS enters the Zeta Riticuli star system. Humans are greeted by their makers, then transported further into space to a scary yet fascinating world. The Alien Gods are proud of their "children", their first creation to reach such levels of intelligence.

As a reward they share bits of their astonishing bio-based technologies with the humans. But for one crew member of the Prometheus it's not enough. In a treacherous act he steals the "bio-source code" to Terraforming, a technology at the origin of all Gods' power, that could make humans equal to the gods. The Alien Gods may be scientists but are also ruthless conquerors, destroyers of worlds who will not accept humans as equals. They unleash on the escaping human crew their favorite bio-weapon, a creature used to "clean up" worlds before colonization. But something goes wrong in the process and humans manage to turn the bio-weapon against their makers. Giving birth to a smarter, nastier, bigger breed of gut eating creatures. Creatures that will be the demise of Paradise. What's left of the Prometheus crew manages to escape the doomed planet.

On their trail a survivor Alien God in very familiar ship with one ultimate mission.

Bring the wrath of the Gods to Earth.
 
Directed by Ridle Scott who did Gladitor, Black Hawk Down, American Gangster, Robin Hood (2010)

Looks like Michael Fassbender is the leading role I think and I really liked him as Magneto in the new X-Men movie.

Also has a good supporting cast list:

Charlize Theron: Monsters, In the Valley of Elah, The Ilatian Job

Ben Foster: 3:10 to Yuma, 30 days of night, Hostage

Guy Pearce: LA Confidental, Hurt Locker, Memento

It might be a good flick since it has a good director and a good list of actors.

EDIT: Ben Foster isn't in this movie not sure where I got that from lol

This movie also has Michael Fassbender who played Magneto in the new X-Men movie and was in Shame. I've heard Shame was pretty good but Fassbender was also in 300 and Inglourious Bastards.

 
I can't wait to see this flick. I'm so pumped for it as its my most anticipated movie of the summer behind The Dark Knight Rises.

I've been cautiously optimistic about this for a long time. I really, really have my fingers crossed on it being amazing.

 
I've been waiting for this movie for a while too. I know it was originally supposed to be a prequel to Alien but now I think they've gone away from that. I could be wrong, however.

i bought the hype and will be going to see it in an hour... i will let everyone know how i think it was.... got a pretty bad review in the local kitty litter box liner

 
Just got back from it...it was good, but not wowzers good. It feels like about an hour into the movie major stuff was left on the cutting board and it doesn't have the dark grit that Alien and Blade Runner had. For some reason I also thought the soundtrack was a letdown.

 
there are a lot of unanswered questions (on purpose for the sequel i am sure)... and i thought it was pretty interesting and left me wanting to know more but there was a lot of what the f#*k moments that didnt' make sense...

i did like when the humoid in the begining kills himself on what i was assuming earth and spread his DNA all over the place... that was pretty cool

but there was lots of weird type sh#t that didnt make sense and came outta no where.....
