There is a chance that the British elder Ridley Scott, as in the best years, will hit the world hard, scary and very realistic fiction, for which we are all so yearned. And judging by the trailers, the chance of this is great. Otherwise, it waits for the fate of the Greek titan.

Let's face it. Absolutely everything we were puzzled when they learned that Scott decided not to remove the prequel of "Alien", but instead chose to create something "expanding universe" from classical characters. Surely, most of us hurried to conclusions and accused the director almost a betrayal.

With every news, that accompanied the process of working on the painting, we caught ourselves thinking that the project seems more interesting. Fassbender in place of Jan Hill and Lance Henriksen? Excuse me ... And although, God knows. Emo Girl of the Swedish detective will be the new Ellen Ripley? Well, it's no longer any gate! Yet a look at it in the first movie. The budget of 250 million dollars or even more? Yes, in the creation of suborbital spaceship SpaceShipTwo has been invested just over 100 million dollars! A value of "Alien" was altogether 8.4 million! Truth on location in Iceland and the construction of large-scale decorations in the halls of the British studio are expensive. And all in the same spirit.

And then came the first shots, the quality of which can be compared with the rock paintings of the Paleolithic era, and we are interested in is not a joke. Of course, we are still looking for flaws in them, discussing bluish suits heroes Consoles "Prometheus" and shook each other's knowledge of astronomy, rocketry, design and psychology of women. But it was already rather out of inertia.

These fermentation ended immediately and without pain, after Ridley Scott film company 20th Century Fox stabbed us in the whole brain a part of discontinuous spots of all calibers. It was a real good shock. Without any exaggeration we can say that such a delight jaded fan of this comic book adaptations of science fiction had not experienced for a long time.

There are no bright-eyed beauties, overcoming the laws of physics and no superhero flying at sunset, green rings, red tights, long-eared masks and latex on the chest of the third size. This will be a real hardcore flavored metal, spray acid and the abyss of absolute despair.

Can it be true, Scott managed to create something original on the basis of all familiar? Is it possible to breathe new life into franchise, after agonizing over its experiences in the form of "Alien vs. Predator"? Are we witnessing a new ignition flame from a spark, brought to the cinema "Prometheus"?

Hopefully, yes…
