Aside from the fact that Michelle Rodriguez is in it, I am real amped for this shit.

James Camron is one of my favorite writer/directors and he's clearly been working on this movie for over a decade now.

I am a sucker for outer space flicks, and IMO, there hasn't been one to even compete with 2001 to this day. My problem with space flicks is they are always super corny and too much "hollywood" influence with unrealistic physics (i.e., spaceships making sound, people walking around in anti-gravity, etc.)

I doubt this movie will exhibit anything close to the realism that 2001 did, but the plot is realistic in that it is based on astronauts exploring our neighboring solar system.

If executed properly, I feel this could be an amazing movie. however it also could easily be a huge slop (as space movies often are).
