Dude Time: Movie of the week - Prometheus.

Prometheus is the prequel to Aliens. It had been some time since I had seen the movies but thought that this looked like a good flick in itself. As it would turn out, I was right. The amount of coordination in this story to fit the series was well noted. (Right after finishing this, I started watching the first Aliens again.) Other than the amount of modernization such as what computers were thought to look like in the future from a 1979 perspective to a current view of "future," the movies flow.

However, you could just watch this movie even if you have no direct interest in the Alien series. I think Prometheus could be a stand alone feature.This is NOT a family feature and is for you and your "Dude Time."

The movie was voted at 73% in favor courtesy of RottenTomatoes.com. Ridley Scott, director of Alien and Blade Runner, returns to the genre he helped define. With Prometheus, he creates a groundbreaking mythology, in which a team of explorers discover a clue to the origins of mankind on Earth, leading them on a thrilling journey to the darkest corners of the universe. There, they must fight a terrifying battle to save the future of the human race.
