A little backstory, some interesting facts about the performers, or the production, or the studios, or the public's reaction, fine. I wouldn't mind a word or two about the movie, a thumbnail view, it's just that they practically tell me everything I'm about to see onscreen, which to me defeats the purpose of watching the movie! If I wanted someone to tell me what's about to happen before it happens, I wouldn't be watching it. I always hit the mute button when they start their spiels, and once the opening credits roll, I turn the volume back up. ~ less

And I forgot that movie itself is three hours and fifteen minutes. less

Neither were in the movie a huge amount of screen time but they were essential in my opinion.

If you saw them, do you like all three?(I haven't seen all of the franchise -- I did see "Alien 4:Resurrection" and "Prometheus." I liked "Prometheus" but not "Alien 4.")
