# 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.

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.

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.

# 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.

That tells us nothing about whether that reception was merited for Alien, or whether it's unmerited for Prometheus.

# Fluff alert! .... because it's Friday 13th and we need more things that go fluff in the night...
Meet this lovely little fox cub that has been visiting my garden for the last two months.

He's bigger each day and I sit on the other side of the open patio door watching as he gets used to me. Occasionally, I feed him some left overs. He's a curious little thing.
I took this pic this afternoon.

I noticed he has a sore eye which closed up this morning so I'm going to attempt to catch him and then RSPCA will come round and treat it for him cos I want him to be nice
and healthy. Could resemble marx bros or carry on film with me running around garden with a blanket trying to catch him....

Fluff over and out, have a lovely weekend y'all.

it was like a very pedantic FAQ on how to argue with someone religious, "and if they say this... say that"

# Needs more sheds
On the other hand, I've been watching a load of documentaries on history and the bible. It's about ten years old now but Finkelstein and Silberman's three-part documentary based on "The Bible Unearthed" was very good. I also saw a History Channel documentary the other day that said things like "Scholars believe these tunnels were built in 6000BC. But could they have been built ten thousand years earlier, before traditional scholars believe history was built?", and follow that up with "These tunnels could have been built in 16,000BC. Were they made by aliens fighting over Earth's resources?" That was brilliant. Unfortunately I can't remember what it was called, but that's not really important. Any History Channel documentary now will ask the same insane questions and answer them with "Sure, why not?", justifying it with some idiot who is an "expert in alien technology" or some such.

Fantastic stuff.

Edit: Part 1 of the Bible Unearthed, "The Patriachs": www.youtube.com/watch?v=t440bxhn1qA It's in three parts.

# I don't tend to watch documentaries for precisely these kinds of reasons.
That and it's really difficult to check their sources.
(, Fri 13 Jul 2012, 16:37, archived)
# The History Channel ones are amazing though
It genuinely is once every few minutes "Most scholars believe [something sensible] but could it be [something batshit insane]?" They then assume the latter, and move on. By the end of it you've got some weird inverted pyramid of lunacy, each level more absurd than the latter.

I'm sure they're deliberately satirising these people rather than buying into it...

"The Bible Unearthed" is a genuine documentary, though, made by genuine archaelogists who genuinely know about archaelogy in Israel (one is professor at Tel Aviv and the other I think either in Belgium or one of the Ivy League universities) and are building genuine arguments, even if like all arguments in the ancient world they're necessarily made of assumption and uncertain conclusions. At least they're aware of it...

(Edit: Silberman is at Uni. Massachusetts Amherst. So not Ivy League. Still, knows what he's talking about.)

# Hmm
Swap to the History Channel ones then. (Or read the book of the Bible Unearthed. I think you'd find a lot to argue in there -- and there is a lot to argue; they're building an argument from interpretation the same as anyone -- but it is worth it, I reckon.) They do say a lot in 15 minutes. None of it is technically accurate and it might rapidly give you apoplexy, but I find that kind of thing entertaining, myself.


Edit: Also, I've watched through Neil Oliver's History of... series recently (so far as I know he's got Ancient Britain, Celtic Britain and, I dunno, Bronze Age Britain or something), and they're also very good.
