I’m just shocked that people don’t realize that david used him as a guinea pig because HE WAS LOOKING FOR A CURE FOR WEYLAND
I’m calling it that ridley is testing the public with that film
I get that, but it also seemed that Weyland was prepared for the end also.

Another positive thing about the movie:
the theater I saw it at was a Jordan’s Furniture Imax thing, and the seats had ButtKickers™ so when the ship like took off and landed and stuff the whole fucking theater shook like I was in the ship it was so cool you guys 
Hold up, all the Lost hate needs to quit because that was quite possibly the best TV series.
The few minor details that didn’t get explained did not alter or affect the story one bit.
Shame that the minor unexplained details are the best parts of the plot.
I don’t really think Walt was that integral or could qualify as “a best part of the plot.”
But to each his own.
I think you have gotten your arguments crossed up…
You seem Lost.
This is not a good thing.
In any connotation.
Not quite, and if I have to elaborate on “Walt” then I take it you haven’t watched the show.
Lost was fucking stupid. Glad i stopped watching it.
HA HAAAAA, I get it :tup:
If I have to eloborate the legion other reasons that Lost sucked AIDS infected monkey scrotum, then clearly it is YOU who hasn’t watch the show.
I think there are a number of people who will disagree with you. But like I said, to each his own.
There are also a number of people who believe the Earth is only a few thousand years old.
I disregard them also.
THANK YOU!
Jesus tittyfucking Christ! I was too lazy to continue further discussion on this movie since people already made up their minds, but yes. David is android who wants to be a real boy, he’s being told he doesn’t have any higher purpose or emotions, yet he displays the subtlest disapproval when being disregarded; he probably has no idea he’s seething because he has no emotional proxy to relay this *feeling. *All of his actions are taken out of childish and unempathetic rationales, like when he infected Holloway and attempted to restrain pregnant Shaw just to see what would happen. He made all his decisions for the sake of seeing the outcome and he desperately seeks approval and respect; this creates a psyche that prevents him from being aware that he’s more human than he realizes.

In terms of the filmography, I guess I can see some of the criticisms - there are logical inconsistencies, such as Shaw’s escape to the Medpod scene, fodder characters, such Fifiel and Millburn and Vickers not moving a few feet to the right to avoid her demise - but I guess I was so enthralled by the movie that they didn’t bother me nearly as much as they would have in another, less engrossing film, despite being conscious of them.

This movie is certainly not without it’s flaws but…
Most mammals have a flight response that instinctively makes them run in a straight line excluding the few used to predation such as the pronghorn and other antelope that use a zig-zag pattern. Vickers was running under a state of pure terror, so from an observational POV it looks stupid, but it’s actually very realistic*****. Shaw was terrified but her fall granted her the composure to reassess her situation and adapt.
*Watch any real footage of people running away from natural disasters, wild animals or even motor vehicles.
The movie is called Prometheus, and is based on a continuum of not only humanity but life itself.
We were given a brilliant bait and switch (cue “good movie that turned out bad” jokes), because we were under the impression that the big reveal was the seeing visage of our creators and them communicating with intellectual superiority on why we are the way we are, but this wasn’t the case at all.
The ENTIRE reason why the Engineer in the beginning is shown in full detail was to show that his existence was irrelevant, that his alien form was not the core structure of the story at all; what was at the heart of the film was the acknowledgment of the grand scale of life and humanity.
“We” traveled several lightyears to a distant moon and ended up finding ourselves in the process, still flawed and fearful.
That can be disproved by fact. This is pure subjectivity.
I would qualify television under the category of “art”.
As such, I, Immanuel Kant, and the very fabric of the universe itself, disagree.
Rewatched alien tonight. Prometheus planet was blue right?
In alien its orange, still had rings though, maybe different systems completely.
The satellite in alien had the same condition though nitrogen and carbon dioxide made up the atmosphere.
Also, Lambert says it will take 10 months to get to earth, where Prometheus took 2 years didn’t it?

David’s pride was the fact his existence was for *someone else *which is what humans with some sort of evolved sense live by.
on that note it’s too bad that while technology is evolving humans are regressing 
well that’s what happens when there’s too much information
Not at all, if you’ve been paying attention to politics, Democrats are accusing Republicans on having a war against women. Republicans want to remove the right of women choosing to have abortions, ban the morning afterpill, use vaginal probes on rape victims to check stage pregnancy etc etc etc.
If David had forced her to see the pregnancy through and she’d died there would be complaints. She made her own choice, only people that are going to be pissed at that are republicans. But since this movie is by Fox and it’s made them a fuck load of money we probably won’t hear much.
yeah it was shaking me in my seat, it was badass.
the presentation - sound effects + visuals - were the best part of the movie, obviously
