Missing Real with Mike D'Arrigo

Comedy


In Greek mythology, Prometheus stole fire from the gods and gave it to us humans.  So now you know who to thank next time you sink your teeth into a flame-broiled Whopper at Burger King.   Speaking of teeth, isn't this supposed to be the movie that's sorta related to Alien?  Yeah!  Ridley Scott takes a somewhat off-road path to revisiting his 1979 classic, and this misleading title might fool you into thinking this is one of those Clash of the Titans flicks.  It ain't!  Trust me, it's an Alien movie.  You might not recognize the few aliens featured in it, but they're definitely "distant cousins" of our beloved Giger Xenos.  I totally geeked out when I first saw this epic, dark  sci-fi adventure, but it has its detractors.  One of them is featured on this podcast, my ever-reliable, objective and brutally honest bro Quan Ngo.  Will he convince me to start hating this movie?  Game on!!!
