While speaking to a small group of press after the PROMETHEUS panel at Wondercon 2012, screenwriter and producer Damon Lindelof spoke a little bit more in detail about where a PROMETHEUS 2 could go. It also shed some light on why PROMETHEUS has the “DNA” of the ALIEN films, but isn’t a really a true prequel. “If ending this movie is going to take you to the room where John Hurt is walking into that room full of eggs, we know where it’s going to end,” says Lindelof and why they didn’t do that? “Real good stories, you don’t know […]Read On »

One of the great things about the RESIDENT EVIL franchise according to star Milla Jovovich is that writer/producer/occasional director (and her husband) Paul W.S. Anderson creates the next installment when inspiration strikes. “It’s not a machine churning them out,” says Jovovich while speaking to the press shortly before the RESIDENT EVIL: RETRIBUTION panel at Wondercon. “But every two or three years, it’s all about Paul’s imagination. It’s scheduled when inspiration comes – that’s what keeps it fresh.” It also helps the same creative team has been in place for five films, including the forthcoming RESIDENT EVIL: RETRIBUTION. “This is rare […]Read On »
