Are you ready for Prometheus???!!???

@ the hate.

I watched to movie, and my only complaint was the 3D which was giving me a headache. It was a decent Sci-fi movie. I liked it...

I wouldnt say they have run out of ideas, i think they dont want to put out any fresh and risky films because those dont make money. Why take a big risk when at the end of the day its all about the dollar? Take a tried and true story, spruce it up with the bells and whistles which are in today, and call it a day.

Its the same shyt thats going on with videogames. You do something original and nobody buys it, so with your next game you just copy as much from Cod, Gears of War, GTA IV, or whatever else is selling and you make your money there.

If so then why even waste time watching big budgets anymore? The best movies Ive seen in the past couple of years have been original ideas coming out of Europe and Asia, while Hollywood just siphons them off. For Example: Girl with the Dragon Tattoo and Oldboy. All they do in Hollywood is remake and rehash and reboot. I'm not going to spend 17 bucks on a movie ticket if its some monotonous and predictable bullshyt yuhfeelme?

1st off where are you going thats 17 bucks for a movie ticket? We running 6 bucks over here.

2nd, because every movie doesnt need to be thought provoking and breaking new ground. Avengers was big budget and it was worth the money. Im gonna check for that Hobbit later this year, i already know whats gonna happen but hopefully it keeps me entertained for 2 hours. Thats all some people want from a movie, keep me entertained for 2 hours and dont make me feel like i wasted my money.

What i have to do now is decipher all these opinions and determine if this is a decent movie that simply didnt live up to expectations (in which case i will still see it) or if it is a legit nonsensical bad movie (in which case i wont see it).

Yeah because Hollywood didnt make popular books into movies before this year.

IMAX 3D is 16 bucks out here.

Wish I didn't waste that bread though, wasn't worth it. Left the theater with a headache.

Just got back from watching it..
It was crap.
The story is all over the place. good lord. Stargate and the original Alien executed this story 10x hell 20x better than what this did. The visuals excel but the story and acting is left to be desired. in the film, I got the feeling that nobody actually gave a shyt about anything or anyone. If you're going to make the greatest discovery of mankind and least act like it. These cats were ho hum about everything, them landing on that new planet was no more exciting than a pilot landing into Cleveland. It didn't know whether it wanted to be a science fiction 2001 type odyssey, a horror film, a arthouse flick, etc. It was like a mashup of every popular science fiction/action film you've ever seen. Cliche as hell.

I know...even if I wasn't interested it still would have been like when they found the headless engineer. And then when them two dudes was stranded the captain was like "there are some other lifeforms in there", them cats like wait! help! Idris was just on some yea whatever type shyt

This Thread done Evolutionized!!!

 

[Silver Surfer]

Yea Idris looking like when they were left in the alien structure when another lifeform was present

 

[TreyAce]

$50 million opening weekend

and that abraham lincoln movie looks crazy

 

[Blankthawtz]

Movie was complete ass chips.. ...and chalize Theron need to learn how to fake left go right.. .

 

[VerbalIntercourse]

Everyone here talking about all this religion crap got it all wrong. Aliens was always about money and power.
it's actually a cool concept when you sit around think about it.

the engineers are no different than the Wailand-Yutani company. they are a very cold organization with a clear non altruist goal. I mean wouldn't it be messed up if God created humanity for nothing more than his own Economic or utilitarian reasons?

Or if some galactic corporation created us a tool for their plans of domination?

man my mind would've been blown! lol, I probably would've been freaking the fukk out. Idris and the crew was basically like "fukk all that discovery shyt ya'll got goin' on, we got a game of 2K goin' on right now".

Spoiler

the two dudes trapped were scared as shyt one minute, then blowin' weed the next, next they're scared shytless again, then they're tryin' to play with the alien cobras like is was a cute kitten. Fassbender/The Android's actions throughout the film didn't add up or make sense by the end of the movie. I was like are you good, are you evil, are you working for the old man, doing your own thing, what are you doing? Also I think they should've went the Star Trek route, the ship Prometheus should have been bigger and equipped with some cannons. You don't space travel for two years in a ship that's not equipped with some sort of weapons. It should've blasted the Engineers ship to pieces. The ship should've been one of the stars of the film like the USS Enterprise is to Star Trek.. so when the sequel comes around you still got the prometheus up and running ready for adventure part 2. The interior of Alien vessels is always shytty and ugly imo.

It was crazy how they was ready to kill themselves to blow up the ship....I would have been like..."look weed need to get back to earth and re-group!"

I agree, but the scene in the beginning had a sense of ceremony to it, a ritual suicide,

suggesting culture and maybe their own concept of a creator or Godhead.
