"Prometheus"

[Patroklos]

Um... it was brought along specifically to cater to Weyland (a man), not Vickers. That was the foreshadowing to Weyland being on board.

One of a thousand flaws resolved.

The whole planet and the first area they investigate is the spot with the alien ship.
After having your abdomen cut open and stapled you can still run and jump....lets not forget a hit to the abdomen with a rifle.

The whole planet and the first area they investigate is the spot with the alien ship.

They did decide to land in an area that looked it it may have had roads.

Besides, that's a trope in nearly every movie (they only have like 2 hrs to tell the entire story after all).

[DaShi]

Honestly, were any of you sad to see any character in this movie die?

I wasn't, but I'm a heartless bastard.

I loved how after landing they were driving along a vast perfectly flat highway having a debate over whether there were any signs of civilization..

Remember fellow posters, if a giant rolling ring of a space ship is coming towards you try running to the side. If you leave two of your crew stranded in an alien environment that also happens to be the first sign of intelligent life your civilization has ever encountered and ALSO is full of dead bodies of the that same first intelligent life that you just watched die a violently via a convenient hologram maybe try monitoring their status instead of going off to get some ass. Or at the very least when those crew members turn up missing the next morning, play back the damn video to see what happened to them.

So... your main gripe is that the fictional characters made stupid decisions? How does that increase or decrease the entertainment value of a movie? Is it a realism issue? Do you have any idea how incredibly stupid people are in the real world?

[kentonio]

Would you send a group of stupid people on a mission to potentially meet the first alien life?

[Wezil]

Yes. Cannon fodder.

[kentonio]

That's what we keep the Americans for, surely?

[Darius871]

Would you send a group of stupid people on a mission to potentially meet the first alien life?

Given what we eventually learned about Weyland and his intentions, it makes perfect sense that he would pick a lackluster crew.

[Imran Siddiqui]

Darius speaks the truth. I mean, c'mon, NASA (who isn't exactly full of idiots) once screwed something up because they didn't convert from US units of measure into metric.

This is a adventure and science fiction movie directed by Ridley Scott. Charlize Theron is doing really good acting in this movie. She look very beatyful and charming in this movie. All seens in this is really good.

[Addled Platypus]

ya think they will do one more ?
