the engineers should have re-engineered this movie

[werewolf]

seen Prometheus today and to me it sucked, big time. there were a lot of holes in the movie. That is 2 hrs and 4 mins i wont get back. Ridley Scott, did you forget the first alien movie entirely ? Instead of directing movies you should get a job directing traffic. Cause this was an accident. I am glad i didn't go a pay the extra price for IMAX 3-D. I cant believe on how many people actually like this piece of crap. the trailer should have been the whole movie. I was more entertained by that than this. I cant give this a half star and that would be generous.

The movies getting a above average rating on imdb. 7.8/10. I'll prob see it just because i'm a movie gurue and like seeing everyone. But ill go into it with your mindset and see what I think of it. People are saying it felt like there was 30min of footage missing that would of filled in the blanks it seemed. Did it seem like this?

this film is to be a "sort" of a prequel for ALIEN, which Ridley Scott directed.

[werewolf]

it seem like he had forgotten that the space jockey in the first alien movie was fused to the set and the bones were bent out. however in this one the space jockey had left and died on board the escape shuttle. the large face hunger look like something from and old Japanese monster flick. plus all the bodies that the space jockey kill where did they go? the canisters if they were suppose to be the eggs found later in the first alien movie, they unscrewed and not open like the eggs in all of the other alien movies. if this was suppose to be a prequel to the original alien movie in my book if fail big time. its like this movie was trying to break away from the whole alien and alien vs predator franchise.

What was wrong with the movie? Plot off, FX not up to par, Jimmy Hoffa cameo?

you must not have read the reply. just before your post.

yeah, weird time warp thing happened or something. Your second post didn't show up on my feed until I rechecked this thread. Maybe Ridley Scott is involved with this one, too.

plus all the bodies that the space jockey kill where did they go?

You mean the bodies of the people that were on the alien spacecraft that crashed? Where did you expect them to be? The ship crashed so I figure everything went flying. The question is more why didn't David's head move.

the canisters if they were suppose to be the eggs found later in the first alien movie, they unscrewed and not open like the eggs in all of the other alien movies.

Because the eggs in this movie were weapons and had been created to be deployed. The ones that are supposed to have come later were laid, not created in a lab.

Plus, the Space Jockey wasn't the same one that the Nostromo found

I watched the movie in 3D. I felt like I payed too much. It seemed more like a 2D movie than 3D. Dont expect things to be popping out at you.

I thought it could have had deeper 3D, but they went subtle depth, not whoosh coming at ya'. Wish I could have seen it in IMAX but it looks like the IMAX projector broke at our cinema.

Evidently ancient, ancient belief systems are the key to the story, like Mesopotamia and Babylon.
