In Alien they come out of hypersleep because of a distress signal. The distress signal is deliberate to lure spaceships to the site.
LOL. No it isn't, the 'distress signal' is a warning to keep everything away. Ash, the android, had been programmed to lie to them and get whatever is there, with his orders including the crew being expendable, which is why he tries to kill them.
Of course the Android in Prometheus does whatever the **** it feels like for no apparent reason other than because they had a 'psychotic' android in Alien and they needed a plot catalyst but, as usual in the film, the writer couldn't be bothered to think of one that made any sense.

My bad you're right it was to stay away but they think it could be a distress signal. My point was that it wasn't the same ship as in Prometheus. Ash wasn't programmed in advance. He was obeying directives given once they discovered the ship. The company has seniority over the crew so he must obey their orders.
 
Im been thinking bowt binging on the Back to the Future trilogy lately

Looked on Prime the other day, don’t think they got it, was a bit stoned tbh, will need to re check and Netflix too

It won't be on Prime or Netflix. I think it's on Sky though. Might even be on ITVX.
