"Prometheus"

[Elok]

How about "Incendiary"? That's the most pretentious movie I can recall seeing ATM. Do they deserve death?

[MRT144]

Well screw you guys, I thought it was great! An excellent mystery sci-fi. Kind of reminded me of Arthur C. Clarke's Rendezvous with Rama, well, you know, if there was looming killer aliens in the background.

You really don't have refined tastes

Never saw it. What do you think? Death-worthy?

[Elok]

No, with the possible exception of Triumph of the Will I don't think any movie merits physical violence. However, Incendiary did feature the following lines (quoted courtesy of IMDB):

Young Mother: [last lines - narration] People thought it was the end of the world. But the world didn't end. So they rebuilt the city in 3 years, stronger and taller. London is a city built on the wreckage of itself, Osama. It's had more come backs than the evil dead. It's been flattened by storms and flooded out and rotted with plague. Even Hitler couldn't finish it off. Death nor flame was like hell, my grandmother said, just one endless sea of flames. But we built on the rubble, and we kept on coming like zombies. I *am* the city, Osama. I am the whole world. Murder me with bombs and I will only build myself again, and stronger. I'm too stupid to know better.
Young Mother: The Sun says you are an evil monster, but I don't believe in you, and I know it takes two to tango. I know you're vexed at the leaders of the western world. Well I'll be writing to them too.
Young Mother: [as baby is being born] I know you're a clever man, Osama. Much brighter than me. If I can make you see my son with all your heart for just one moment, I know you would stop making boy-shaped holes in the world - it would make you too sad. Love is not surrender, Osama. Love is furious and brave and loud. You could hear it in the noise my boy made when he played with his cars.
The Boy: [memory of him playing] Vroom! Vroom! Vroom!
Young Mother: I wish you could have heard him, Osama. That noise is the fiercest and the loudest sound on earth. It will echo 'til the end of time. It is more deafening than bombs. Come to me. Come to me and we'll blow the world back together with incredible noise and fury.

Even that only makes me think briefly of murder, though.

For further kentonio head injury inducing, my 4 disc Collectors Edition shipped yesterday .

I'm writing a theatrical version for the kid's school play.

[Patroklos]

Is this a good time to bring up the stupidity of that medical machine not being configured to accept female patients. You know, when it was brought along specifically to cater to a risk averse female patient.

[Imran Siddiqui]

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

Cab you explain this bit:

3) If you are a biologist and encounter an alien life form that you describe to your ship's crew as "four feet long, reptilial, with translucent skin," your first instinct should probably not be to try to play with it.

[Dr Strangelove]

I can't help it, I just like violence and 'xplosions.

[Addled Platypus]

had some moments

it lost me on "weapons of mass destruction"

let this be the last one, frak

[DaShi]

Cab you explain this bit:

Seriously? What, you'd have Hamlet kill his step father in the first act and be done with it?

One of a thousand flaws resolved.
