Good morning, James.
How are you feeling?
Spoilers for those who haven't read it. I just read the leaked script for Passengers, a sci-fi movie coming out in December. I highly recommend you don't spoil yourself/read the script because despite the trailer, there's still some hefty twists that work quite well. After Reeves agreed to produce with Hamel and star in Passengers, Spaihts was commissioned by Scott Free to write the next installments in the Alien saga, two prequel films to be directed by Ridley Scott, which eventually turned into the more autonomous story Prometheus, ultimately revised by Damon Lindelof.
Wait. What?
It's perfectlynormal to feel confused.
You just spent 120 years
in suspended animation.
What?
It's okay, James.
- It's Jim.
- Jim.
Just breathe. Everything is okay.
Where am I?

Welcome, learninggroup 38.
Your introduction to colonial life.
Earth is a prosperous planet,
the cradle of civilization.
But for many, it's also overpopulated,
overpriced, overrated.
I'm sorry, I think I may be in the wrong...
Hold all questions till the end, please.
Sorry.
The coloniesoffer an alternative,
a better way of life.
Where are all the other...
And there's no colony
more beautiful than Homestead II,
the jewel of the occupied world.
I'm sorry.
Where is everybody?
We are all on the Starship Avalon.
But I'm the only one here.
There are 5,000 passengers
and 258 crew members.
So why am I alone?
We're all in this together.
Hello?
Anybody here?
Hello?
Please buckle up and secure any loose items.
This elevator will experience
a momentarylapse in gravity.
