Yeah but then you could argue taking out Ethan Hawke or Rutger Hauer, but it's at least a top15 and could be argued a top10. If it was a better liked movie, even though his performance would be the same it would elevate the perception

Ain't no taking out Rutger Hauer breh




Top10.. no. In the Top20... sure. I think a case can be made for somewhere after 10 :manny:

Dude was one of the three good things about the movie.

Fassbender was great but top performance in the genre? I don't know about that, he might not even have the top performance in the Alien franchise.:patrice:

I didn't like the last film until I read more about it online
They needlessly left a lot of mythology out for no reason. I know it can be explained in sequels blah blah but it would have done better service to the movie to explain a little more. But that's on par for anything Lindeloff is involved with.

It's a very frustrating movie for me because I want to love it but they dropped the ball in so many areas it keeps me from doing so.

They could cast a bullterrier, say it's her and no one will notice

And I'm not going to like it more based on the shyt that was left out. I really really wanted to like this movie. I wanted to love it

But you have a lot of fans who loved despite it being trash and getting sensitive when this trash got thrown into the bushes. I can never forget the crowd reaction in the theater... they were disgusted :mjlol:


All this news must hurt them :lolbron:


It's now officially in that Alien: Resurrection and Alien 3 pile of dung that the studio and directors have no problem erasing with quickness whether they like it or not :mjlol:

Don't see how fassbender is out of place here. I mean, it's a little niche but I could've easily put Sam Rockwell for moon which is a little niche as well
JGL in Looper is close imo

Hicks, hudson..

Well here's the quesrion tho: are those the better performances because they're more iconic or because they're just better? I'm not disagreeing but it's something I've been thinking about since the homie @Sensitive Blake Griffin brought it up. Part of what made those performances iconic is that they were in great movies. Prometheus isn't great therefore the memory of a great performance is a bit muddled.
