I hate you for making this thread Blackmask.
Well that's because you are such a fan that you are blind to the criticisms. Believe me, there have been more compaints than you suggest.
Thanks for letting me know, I had no idea.
In all seriousness though, that's not true. I strive to separate my personal enjoyment of a film from it's quality. I've watched the movie several times, I've read probably every last complaint in the film's thread.
About 50% of complaints are things people didn't understand but could have if they paid closer attention or read between the lines, 25% are stupid character decisions, and the other 25% are people who already had the space jockey origin built up in their heads for the past 30 years and couldn't let go of it.
Without turning this into the Prometheus thread all over again, I'll just say that, while yes, many movies have characters making stupid decisions, the decisions made in Prometheus by just about every single character every step of the way until the credits roll, is stupid.
"every step of the way until the credits roll"... Yeah, that's definitely hyperbole.
Characters in The Walking Dead make far stupider decisions far more often and people are obsessed with that show.
The bit that lost me for good in that movie is when the dude who is scared witless of anything that moves, happily reaches out to coo and pet at a freaking murky-water snake-like thing that, inevitably, leaves him in a bloody mess. I would've walked out right then and there if I could bring myself to believe that the movie couldn't possibly get more ridiculous than that. But I didn't, and it did.
A character touching something he shouldn't have in a sci-fi/horror film? Blasphemous!
Kinda like hopping down to a chamber in a derelict spacecraft full of enormous eggs, realizing there are life forms inside them, touching them and then when they open shoving your face right over them...yeah, but that only happens in Prometheus.
The funny thing is, there's a deleted scene showing that same character, Milburn, being beyond excited to find these small, seemingly harmless worm-like creatures earlier in the film. That explains why he was so excited to see the hammerpede. Shame they didn't leave that scene in.
