# I thoroughly enjoyed Prometheus, I don't understand where all this hate is coming from.
Oh boo hoo, it needed a bit of thought to understand it, the Space Jockey wasn't what you thought it was, and it wasn't a prequel that ended exactly five minutes before Alien.

To be fair, though, the ending was pants.

# Yes totally. It could have been better but it was an enjoyable movie regardless.
as for the dumb scientists hey they are in all films. look at John Hurt in Alien. "hey look a completely unknown alien species egg I'll stick my face right into it!'

Had flaws but great to see a proper sci-fi film and not dumb kiddie shit.

If you like proper sci-fi and not dumb kiddie shit you should totes read my short story "Dawn Touches the Girl" available for a measly dollar from all good online booksellers including Amazon and iBooks! It, err, features vampires.

Nah, I can't advertise on b3ta for shit.

It needed a bit of thought?!?!? Are you serious?!? It was such a dumbdown of what they could have done, but no, Scott decides to go and spew out Erick Von Danicken. Thought provoking indeed.

Yawn.

# This.
There's a difference between "I didn't get this at first but appreciated it more with thought because it asked a lot of me" and "I didn't get this at first and appreciated it less with thought because it was ill-conceived, poorly-scripted, half-arsed monkey-toss that cannot stand the critical weight of even passing consideration". Prometheus merits the latter statement.

to be fair, if we all followed the view that you can't criticise for anything you can't do yourself none of us could criticise anyone for anything other than his method of wanking

# It may have had the same reception.
That tells us nothing about whether that reception was merited for Alien, or whether it's unmerited for Prometheus.

I suspect that the critical stock of the latter will not rise with time.
(I helped save b3ta! Enzyme is powered by sunlight, Fri 13 Jul 2012, 22:03, archived)
# Actually, I think its reception from critics has been mostly positive
it's mainly when people judge it in comparison to the its own hype and the first two movies that it seems poor.

I haven't actually seen it personally, but I'm sure it can't be as big a turd as Aliens 3...
(I helped save b3ta! Photoshop Bitch 2014 edition, Fri 13 Jul 2012, 22:08, archived)
# Oh, it is.
It makes 3 look like... um... something better than 3.

It's even more of a turd than Alien Resurrection. No, really.

# I've not seen Resurrection either
but I heard it was ok-ish when considered in its own right. Having said that, I mainly despise 3 on the basis of its beginning, which makes the whole brilliant story arc of Aliens pointless.

If you get the chance see it and make up your own mind. Too many people say this is shit that is shit blah blah fucking blah. Have a look and decide yourself. I actually enjoyed it. I have the Quadrility on DVD and I like them all.

Resurrection is a load of old shit.
AVP 1+2 ... well, the less said about those the better I think.
Alien still the best of the lot.
