As the big blockbusters go, so goes the summer movie season. And this summer movie season, the big blockbusters were almost uniformly bad. But the reality is those films represent just a small percentage of the titles released to theaters during the dog days of summer. The vast majority of summer movies have tiny budgets and play only a handful of theaters at a time. And while the focus remains on the tentpoles, most of the summer’s best movies featured absolutely no robots or explosions or superheroes of any kind.
Ridley Scott’s ‘Prometheus’ is not only one of the more anticipated movies of 2012, it’s also one of the more mysterious. Is it a prequel to Scott’s classic sci-fi film ‘Alien’? Or just another haunted house movie set in outer space?
Now that the trailer is here, fans have even more to chew over.
