op don't lie just to stimulate discussion. Prometheus is complete and utter poo poo wrapped in one of the best presentations I've seen of anything. It may be very expensive and well made poo poo, but it's still poo poo. Zoologist killed by dangerous-looking alien cock he could've easily walked away from Mapping expert with mapping robots gets lost People didn't evolve from Monkeys, they evolved from the alien that ate the black goo things The characters, in an open space, choose to outrun the giant wheel of death instead of RUNNING TO THE loving SIDE this thread utter poo poo, all of it Mr.Smiley4 fucked around with this message at 14:19 on May 8, 2015 |

We haven't even gotten into how David the android is simultaneously loving stupid and seemingly omniscient throughout the movie. Biggest waste of an interesting character since Doctor Phlox on Enterprise.

Flesh Forge posted:See this illustrates what was good about Prometheus (the parts that had David) and what was not good about it (the parts that did not have David) Even the parts that did have David were loving awful in places. How did David know how to use the goo-panel to open the door in the ship? Why did he infect the dude scientist with the black goo, and how did he know that the dude scientist would knock up the chick scientist to create an alien baby? dumb

Applewhite posted:Exactly. That's what I'm saying. It wasn't the stupid "willing suspension of disbelief" stuff which ruined Prometheus, because Alien and Aliens were both equally as bad in that department, but were solid films overall. It wasn't that everything in Prometheus was stupid, it's that it never resolved any of the questions/issues with people acting the way they did. Why did David do what he did? Just to gently caress with them? idk, they never said. Alien and Aliens are much simpler movies that are way better because everyone's motivations were way more defined, even if it was as simple as staying alive or making money. This helps people get into the movie more and keeps them from focusing on dumb plot holes.

Dyna Soar posted:you should have paid attention Admittedly I haven't seen the movie since it came out, but I don't recall either of those. I just remember walking out of the theater totally confused about the whole movie and feeling frustrated that something almost awesome turned into such poo poo in the last 20-30 minutes when things went batshit stupid and they didn't bother to explain much of the previous parts of the movie either.

Please keep it coming. This argument, and your pathetic attempt at salvaging it, is the most hilarious thing I've seen on GBS in a while e: guess he saw the light
