More cute when people think they’re intelligent because they claim to like 2001 but can’t articulate why it makes them smart.

It’s always cute when idiots laugh at people who are more perceptive, articulate or all-around intelligent than they are.

“Any sci fi move goer who thinks “ancient aliens sucks ball” probably doesn’t have enough imagination to watch cartoons”

I’d say they have a significantly more attuned imagination than your own, considering they can differentiate between reality and laughably bad fiction whereas you clearly cannot.

Any sci fi move goer who thinks “ancient aliens sucks ball” probably doesn’t have enough imagination to watch cartoons. That show has more interesting ideas and crazy theories that to me seem much more relevant and realistic then say hmmmmm jesus?

The thing that bothered me at the end of the movie was her having a C-section and then running around. Sure, she acted like she was in pain, lol, like it’s somehow possible for her to just get up and run and jump around after having a C-section. I have had a C-section, and that is beyond ridiculous. Sure, I can walk, but very very slowly. lol. I just couldn’t get over that whole thing. The other main thing that had me laughing hysterically from this article, is “Why were they running in a straight line?” Why indeed? To think, if they had just run to the sides, they would have been safe.

2001 was terrible.. But then so was Space Cowboys. Both in completely different ways.

I’m sorry, Dave. I’m afraid I can’t do that.

People who think 2001 was some kind of deep and meaningful masterpiece make me lol.

Very well, let me rephrase. It is highly probable we already know one of the speculated methods was used, but we cannot confirm it due to the lack of evidence. In any case, we can explain it without having to resort to bullshit faith in higher powers.

Dude, we don’t KNOW how the pyramids were built, we only have speculations, reading isnt required to realize such obvious things.

Someone else’s ability to write a better script has no bearing whatsoever on the merits of this movie. The argument that if you can’t do better then you shouldn’t have an opinion is risable to say the least. As is the claim that we could not build a pyramid. Not knocking their engineers, but they had slaves and the will to spend decades making these things. No modern tech required there, just a lot of human ingenuity. Oh and whips of course :)

Good movies begin with a question. That question is then supposed to be answered. Unfortunately Ridley Scott used his clout to get a horrible script turned into a bad movie that asked more questions than answered.

Lee you go to a movie for entertainment and to hear and see a story. A story has a beginning and an end unless you’re making a part 2. The massive amount questions that Prometheus leaves you with is ridiculous. Forget the philosophy of the movie. That’s what college classes are for. Who are the engineers? Why do they want to kill life on earth? What were the holograms running from? These are a few of the questions that if answered would have made the movie better. No one cares if a summer movie is clever. People want action, fear, and drama not what is the meaning of life. That is why Prometheus sucked.

Ridley Scott is a visionary, he has never produced the same movie twice, this was not aspiring to be another Alien or Blade Runner. R.S. intended on creating a unique science fiction that posed the questions “who are we” “who made us” “why would anyone make us” and of course ye olde science V.S. religion as an element, but aswell in Scotts films the created often are challenged by the creator (Robin Hood, Blade Runner etc.) Father VS. Son, although now we don’t know why this is, im sure with a sequel this will be explored further. In my personal opinion this film achieved what it set out to do, inspire. BTWs Scott said many times before and after the films release it was not a direct prequel to Alien, guys that has been done to death, and lets be honest has gotten really lame courtesy of AVP (which i think are cool but nothing worthy of Scotts original piece). I think due to its thematic elements alone this movie is fantastic. Although the doctor touching the space penis with vagina mouth snake thing is reeeally fucking dumb…

I dont know about yall, but guys like this one who go to a film just to dissect it make me want to kick the shit out of them. see here you fucking power nerd, its a FUCKING MOVIE. I promise you, finding out all of this shit that you asked isnt REALLY gonna save the world or anything, so just let Scott make the next one and answer a few more questions and shut the fuck up.

You people aren’t real fans if you didn’t understand Prometheus. You guys are the problem with film. On a G*D pedestal writing about something you failed to research! If you know anything about story structure or Ridley Scotts camera direction you wouldn’t be so confused. But you choose to criticize what you don’t understand, and expect the answers be handed to you. Only true film fanatics can appreciate this film!

If you want a way out of ignorance and to have some of the questions explained view my blogspot Cinescape. It is the first review under Summer Sci-Fi Reviews!
