I would even argue that most movies have plot holes, because they're often a necessary evil to move the story along.  The issue that most haters seem to have with Prometheus is that it didn't meet sky-high expectations.

Worked for George Lucas.  For the first trilogy, anyway.

You've obviously never played Portal or Portal 2.

And since when does stupid characters mean bad writing?

I also like the theory that we were just a necessary step in the process of creating what they really wanted, xenomorphs.

But nobody said he was a GOOD biologist!  If you watch the biologist prior to that, he's a clumsy moron who wants to impress the geologist.  (He even bumps helmets with him getting in the vehicle.)  My take was that he was trying to show the geologist how cool he was, the sci-fi equivalent of "Watch this, y'all!"…

madame nose, I made it 31 seconds.

What's the Smiths song where Morrissey LAUGHS for half a verse?  "We Hate It When Are Friends Are Successful?"


"Ha ha ha ha-ha! Ha ha ha ha-ha! Ha ha ha ha-ha!"


Fuck me.

Also, the first Frank Black & The Catholics album knocked me out of my shoes.  Recorded live to two track, no less!

Evil Captain Kirk mocking him.

That lens flare was no coincidence.
