Prometheus = God of Stinky Hollwood Crappola

[Samson]

Warning: I'm about to save you the trouble

Apart from the fact that a squid saves the heroine, the movie SUCKS.

Typical Hollywood: Evil Old White Capitalist, his blond, blue-eyed robot, and his blonde, blue-eyed daughter played by Charliz Theron (who doesn't have a nude scene) try to destroy the world.

They are foiled by a woman who gives herself an abortion.

The black Captain of the Earth Ship destroys the Alien Ship which is flown by a Giant White Skinhead. Sadly Obama (opps...sorry) dies in a Huge Explosion whilst standing between his remaining, loyal crew, an Asian and a Hispanic.

Enough said.

The days of "To Have and Have Not" and "The Man who Knew Too Much" are long gone.

A crying shame.

THE ENDING SPOILER:

The ALIEN, you know the one from the movie, THE ALIEN, pops from the abdomin of the dead Giant White Skinhead?

WTF????

Not to mention the days of paying $2 to get into a matinee.



$16.00 to see this shit in 3D

I haven't seen Prometheus yet, but that sounds like exactly what should happen based on the first Alien....maybe when I see it I'll understand what you are bitching about.

Wait for the DVD rental.

Well, thanks.

Misery loves company; I'm please I wasn't the only one duped into shelling out $ to see this shit.

Yeah, the critics have been ripping this movie a new chest cavity. So much potential, only to turn out to be an astronomical letdown.

Every movie review I have read goes something like this, "This movie's script has enough plot holes to drive an intergalactic spaceship through, and the characters are as stupid as a bag of hammers, but see it anyway for the visual beauty of it."

That pisses me off, but should not surprise me any more, I guess. Movies have become so utterly dependent on special effects and technology that an actual story is seen as an inconvenience.

This is what passes for creativy in Hollywood these days: "It's been two minutes since the last craptacular explosion. That's way too long."

 

[Dr Grump]

Yeah, the plot holes are what got me...very underwhelmed. Went with a friend, and his first words when it finished were "what a joke/load of shit"...

SFX were good. The most disappointing thing about it was there were a couple of directions it could have gone it, but failed to do so...

Maybe there will be a director's cut to explain it....

Indeed, the the number of "good directions it could have gone," only add to the tragedy.

The film started out being a "prequel" to Alien.

I've read several reviews..none were to good. Apparently it morphed into something else.

Not that you would follow anything more complex than a Pokemon cartoon anyway, Gump.

I saw it opening day and I think i actually fell asleep for a few minutes.

It sucked.

So essentially, you can't even enjoy a movie without injecting your politics and hatred of Obama into it?

That's kind of sad, actually.

I think you make valid criticisms of a lot of movies, but I'm going to withhold judgement on Prometheus until I see it.

For what it's worth, Rottentomatoes.com gave it a 74% positive rating, so most critics liked it.
