Got a few unanswered question...
1) Is there a dotted connection between prometheus and Alien movie? The only dot I can see is that the alien creature is through a combination of a stuff that David drop in the drink, and the guy make xxx with the gal, and the gal remove the octopus, and octopus make xxx with the engineer, and alien is born 2) Why does the engineer want to destroy earth? 3) What is the cylinder stuff? The one David took to the ship 4) For the 2 guy that was trap in the pyramid. They were kill by a worm type creature. Is it the worm mix with the special type of liquid and evolved as a gigantic worm creature? 5) What kill the engineers in the pyramid? Anybody got any idea??? |

QUOTE(maxpudding @ Jun 11 2012, 01:32 PM) Watch it and decide yourself I'm a fan of the Alien series, even the 3rd and the 4th movie, but not the AvP crossover series. So, I guess I'm easy to be pleased by Prometheus, it met my expectation except for the sci-fi horror elements that the Alien (1979) famously introduced ... maybe we're too jaded already, not easily shocked anymore. For most of fans of Aliens, this is good, and refreshing, an original movie that answers few questions about the first alien movie, and yet giving us another few sets of questions to ponder upon It's kinda like a remake of the 1979 Alien. I watched it again back at home after watching Prometheus in cinema. The 1st Alien movie only showed like maybe 15mins of scenes inside the Derelict alien spacecraft and the Space Jockey; the rest of the movie is inside the human spaceship playing hide and seek with the Xenomorph alien. So, Prometheus' links to Alien is exciting to watch especially when the former expanded upon the discovery aspect of the Space Jockey and its ship, plus injecting a bit of creationism discussion. But Ridley Scott isn't known for making abstract artistically ambiguous intellectual movies such as 2001:Space Odyssey, The Fountain or The Tree of Life; so the questions Prometheus posted could be straightforward and easily revealed in the sequels. The contribution of creator/head writer of Lost tv series, as co-writer of Prometheus, could be seen here for its numerous unanswered questions, but most of them are minor and could be answered with external info; hopefully the sequels won't drag the major questions too long (as with Lost). The only question I wanted to know the answer to, now is .... what the heck did David say to the surviving Engineer? |

Could it be what David had said is the reason why the Engineer gone crazy and started slaughtering them? Because if you notice, at first the Engineer was pretty calm, and kinda touch David's head like he was his son, then suddenly he got really mad and ripped off David's head. There's theories saying that at first The Engineer thought that David was his ancestor's creation(humans), and touches him, but then realized that David is NOT his ancestor's creation, and ripped David's head off in anger and decides to punish humans for this abomination (David, the android). But since David is still alive there's chance he'll tell us what he said, in the sequel maybe |

Yep, the one at Pyramid TGV, RM26 well spent ok ok, then i'll proceed to watch this movie with no expectation on actions But don't really expect too much of those pop-out 3D effects, there are some of those in the movie but not many. It's more about clarity, depth and perception kind of 3D |

I honestly don't see any point in attacking him personally like that. Does venting your anger at him via tweeter achieve anything?
Instead of directly insulting people, maybe people would be better served by just expressing their disappointments publicly and hoping the public opinion would convince the producers to make a more sensible story line in the sequel. If they ever green lit one. |
