Probably the most intelligent-looking alien film marketed since "Prometheus"--which also bodes well for "Blade Runner 2." {nm}

Sure; but there is also conversation. I haven't read Chiang. But the trailer put me in mind of "The Book of Strange New Things". . .

I hope someone options and develops the Faber. But I loved "Contact." ("Why build one, when you can build two at twice the price?")

It's one of the most intelligent and emotional powerhouse scripts I've ever read. Look for insanely strong WOM on this one.
