"Prometheus" musing

dep1701
I think I mentioned this a few months ago, but I went to see "Prometheus" yesterday. I was again struck by how much the exploration van carried in the ship looked very much like an updated version of a SHADO mobile. It would have been perfect in a "UFO" remake. Did anyone else notice the similarity?

I thought the roll out of all the vehicles from the back of the ship just screamed: UFO. "The courage to love is one of the preconditions to thinking critically. It takes courage to shatter conformity and cowardice. Hatred at its worst is nothing more than a form of cowardice. It takes courage for folk to stand up." — Cornel West
