Not that great TED-Talk from the future: Peter Weyland at TED2023: I will change the world (by Ridley Scott)

via blog.ted.com

The good thing about fiction is that it reminds us that we still create the now and the future. Scott’s (and hey, I’m a big fan) melodramatic and not-very-well-visionized setting (all you see is here today) makes me look forward to a movie that I will enjoy, but that most likely won’t ask new questions and may provide no answers at all. This is still up to us…

UPDATE: well, maybe I’ll REALLY will enjoy this movie… (http://io9.com/5906286/shot+for+shot-break-down-of-all-the-new-alien-monsters…)
