Review: Prometheus

     One of the great cultural phenomenon's of the last decade was the TV show Lost. It captured audiences with it's movie like production quality, strongly developed characters, and most notably the mysterious and winding plot, often filled with holes. A demand for answers to the questions created by the show was a driving force in keeping the fans interested enough to stick around for six seasons. While many people feel Lost didn't provide a satisfying amount of answers (although this blogger disagrees, and so do I), the show itself remains as one of the best TV shows of the last ten years. A key contributor to the show's mystery was creator/writer Damon Lindelof. In Prometheus, a prequel to the Alien franchise, Lindelof brings his ability to write mysterious, action-packed, character rich, if hole-filled plots.
