okay so it's this. Confirmed deaths we see are:

Dan O'Bannon (who was very upset at being left out of the Alien sequels) died a few years back, so the actual creator of the Alien concept isn't around to stop Scott from doing whatever dumb thing he wants.

And that's only if you count the scientists as "crew" because if you don't that's even more people unaccounted for.

I couldn't begin to tell you. A lot of guys seem to die for a crew we're told at the beginning is only 17 people.

1) the goo doesn't cause life on earth. The remnants of the engineers DNA does. He doesn't pour goo into the water; he puts his very body. 2) the goo David gave to Halloway clearly infected him as you briefly see a tiny tentacle in his eye. 3) David, who can understand the alien language also states this is the case …

They don't drive off. They in fact back up over it to help kill it.

Not to defend this movie, but David viewing the holograms is supposed to confirm they were going to wipe out life on earth. But it falls on Ridley Scott if you didn't get that, as he also confirms it in an interview. You shouldn't have to read an interview with the director to understand his film.

It's not about the time but the reaction. "The crew is being slaughtered so let's take a nap!"

That he takes a nap while the rest of the crew is being slaughtered by a loose creature, is just his his alien nature not a plot hole? That we see engineers running from a loose creature into a room where more of them are being stored is just their alien nature, not a plot hole (also, there are no bodies inside, but…

Doesn't it look like the outbreak on their end is the only thing that saved earth? And I honestly expected her to say, "I'm gonna take this shit back to them and see how they like it."

Which only brings up more questions, questions the movie cannot answer and doesn't even come close to providing clues for. A movie that makes you think is one thing; a movie that makes you think because you have to plug all its holes is another.

It's actually quite awful, but bad movies are always helped by booze because it kills your logic centers, which is why end up doing things that make no sense in the morning, but made perfect sense at the time.

Sorry. Doesn't hold up because as the movie itself indicates the creature got loose two thousand years ago, while the images on earth were far older than that. It's also clear that its life on earth they're creating at the beginning which is verified by the DNA match in the film.

Sucker Punch couldn't hold onto the title forever...

This absolutely awesome. "James Cameron's PROMETHEUSES" is simply the best. line. ever.

Well, if you're going to pick at that, you're going to have to pick at almost every movie ever. But yeah, given the obvious technology it would have made more sense that a) they used similar survey drones to map the planet the way they did in the caves and—-this is the big one——b) they follow a beacon of some sort…

Not to defend this lame movie in anyway, but the found what they were looking for because, as the jerk dude scientist says, "God does not design in a straight line and the structures where the ships were underneath were all in a straight line. Also, the machine was programmed not designed for a male and it was clearly…

Tried, but failed. "Empty & Beautiful" should be the title of a Ridley Scott retrospective.

You may be one of those amazing people who can watch a movie without any preconceptions, but most of us were expecting Prometheus to be a work of genius.

"The tidbits I heard sound quite dark and mature, which isn't what I expected."
