Prometheus was fucking amazing, with
the big white dudes ripping heads off and smacking OAPs to their knees, should be family viewing, it did however have many problems like -
Cast fucking sucked balls, for me was
the poorest part,
the Alien cast may not be memorable but everyones lines and role seemed solid and secure. In this it jumped from
the armoury officer freaking out after opening
the cargo bay doors to a corpse, after already burning another guy to smouldering cinders (in an alien atmosphere), to another un memorable guy playing with an alien worm
the size of my dick like it's something he's tripped over on a daily basis.
The best thing that happened to
the boyfriend was getting turned into bacon n all, which leads me to that dopey cow who was more twisted than a curly wurly, when they said they wanted someone for
the weaver role didn't they explain that they didn't need, or notice that she was a moaning hag ?
dude - *hey its easy to create life, they did it, it's easy*
hag - *OMG I CANT
YOU BASTARD*
Now,
the obvious answer would be a back hand, but no !, we were given pity fuckery (when later she would create life and abandon it in a box). I might be being unfair because David was win,
the captain and vickers were cool too but were left with very little in terms of screen time / lines or exploring anything about their backgrounds so came across as just another prop. Who
the fuck gets Guy Ritchie then lets him sleep through most of
the movie n all ?, like putting him in an old suite wasn't bad enough.
I didn't like how it lacked any one 'threat' n all, in Alien
you had
the classic monster story, hunting down it's prey and not knowing which way
you'll be fucked etc, in this
you wasn't quite sure wether to expect an engineer in a nappy, cobra worm or gymnastic zombie.
A lot of that can be put down to
the writing which is what held this
movie back imo, or more to
the point - Damon Lindelof, anyone who meets this person should punch him in
the face til your hand breaks. I absolutely hate and despise movies that leave plot holes or loops so that
the viewer can make up their own mind intentionally, some may see it as good writing where as I see it as lazy, and that's what I see this in this
movie, just like in LOST and am just glad he made himself unavailable for
the sequel.
If
the sequel can tie up
the lose ends and be just as impressive as Promo, it could definitely launch Prometheus and make it
the Alien to Aliens, I'm still a tad sceptical though as even though I think Lindelof is to blame, I'm not sure if it was Ridley Scotts ego that made him consider someone for a re-write, so that he could show off his special effects, like holograms that get triggered by farting or spaceships starting up cos Link played a banging tune (pfft pffft pfffft pffffffft pfffffffffffft).
BTW, twas a prequel
