moose face posted:why didn't they just get an old man to play the old man instead of a younger man to out on old man make-up and pretend to be an old man? The movie was ok and I avoided the discussion thread about it like the plague because that thread was terrible but seriously I don't understand the reason for this. It looks like poo poo Why did map guy get lost? Why did biology guy hate aliens? Why did robot evil? Why did cave guy hate small spaces? Etc

Nobody ever mentions the fact that when they woke from hypersleep and congregated in the wardroom, they went around introducing themselves to each other. They embarked on a mission as a crew of a trillion-dollar spaceship and didn't bother to have a mixer before they stepped on board? Most of the crew had literally never met one another??

Zombie Boat posted:Why did map guy get lost? Not to mention that while those guys were trapped in the alien ship, they had good comms with Prometheus but nobody bothered to post a watch to stay in contact with them. So when they got into trouble nobody noticed because the rest of the crew were too busy getting drunk and loving each other.

It was a 'secret' mission after all, to get Weyland a cure or extend his life. With the hi-tech they have in the future, they were probably smuggled on board to prevent the company and others from knowing what was going on. First alien contact like this wouldn't be advertised to everyone if there's a profit to be made.

Pierce had already played a woman, guess he needed to complete his actor-bingo card with an old person role.

moose face posted:I still disagree with the old man makeup I still think they should have gone with an old man I think they put Weyland in the obviously-Guy-Pearce-in-old-man-face makeup because his character was looking for a way to regain his youth, right? So you see this ridiculous-looking old man early in the movie and think to yourself, "surely he will find what he's looking for by the end of this movie and then he'll just be regular Guy Pearce." But then they subvert your expectations (because they're awesome filmmakers, you see) by having Guy Pearce eat it as still an old man. "Haha, you thought you were going to see young Guy Pearce, you stupid fucker," the creators of this movie have probably said on multiple occasions.
