agree with this 100%

inb4 "the effects were amazing but everything else sucked."

Intellectual?

When they get to the planet, the cringiest thing the "scientists" did was never take any safety precautions.
Dude, even todays scientists would be like, "theres an alien spacecraft! Lets get all our testing tools and take the safe route."
In Prometheus: " whoa there an alien spacecraft! Let go in it now! Screw all our important safety gear and instruments that allow us to scan it from a safe distance."

Its a move that says, "even if you're smart.. You're still dumb. Get killed by an Alien, you faggot!"

Shitty and overused concept, sfx were so so at best and it made for a very ridiculous origin story for the xenomorphs. Could'v been good, but went fucking off the mark by putting too many phases on the fucking xenomorph adaptation to other lifeforms.

You only need 2 fucking phases, anything more than that is a major waste and no creature would ever thrive if their biological evolutionary processes had too many stages.

Retarded movie...

>Prometheus is a fucking awesome, very intellectual movie that is over the head of the common pleb

That's what I'd expect a fedora wearer to say.

>assuming evolution works the same throughout the universe
>overlooking the fact that the Engineers were fucking with genetics

Op here.
This would be one of those common plebs I was talking about.

Great movie, everyone else can choke on a dick

woah, check out the evolutionary scientist over here.

Id like to see OP answer these questions for my feeble pleb brain plz.

Cool as Ice

thumbs up

I did like Prometheus. Everytime I see a thread or talking about this film all they have to say its about the humans doing stupid things. And all that part its obviously just mainstream things for average people "look they acted stupid, lol no helmet, Im going to touch this thing"

Prometheus its a lot more than that.

Mary Poppins.

It's whimsical, magical, and just darn good fun.

Mary Poppins.

Best.
Movie.
Ever.

>"Intellectual"
>Arrive at alien planet in some faraway star system
>"We're half-a-billion miles from Earth."
>That's the distance to Jupiter.

That movie is intellectual to 13-year-olds.

not op here, He is right, you are a pleb for thinking this movie is smart in any way

Why do people get hung up on the "scientists" not taking safety precautions. If movies accurately portrayed other professionals taking real life safety precautions, every military/war/police-crime movie or tv show would be so horribly boring and the story would never move fast enough to hold anyone's attention.

I think Prometheus can be thought of as "intellectual" because the movie does not have easy answers about the aliens/engineers/human behavior. These are subjects that are inherently complex. I think the movie is "intellectual" because it encourages more questions.

:thinking:

Im inclined to agree.
Breakfast at tiffanys was pretty good.

>very intellectual movie

hahaha

...

After this movie i started to workout , my motivation was to become a perfect human specimen in case the aliens came.
2 years later went from twig to greek god.

Also started learning sumerian but that didnt stick for long

2baity4me

Well that's one thing we've got.

I love how when you mention to someone who dislikes the movie that there are over one hundred symbolic references to Greek mythology in it and they quickly change the subject in the hope doing so will conceal their ignorance of Greek mythology.

you've almost reached the top tier. now, find a rope and hang your body so that you're above the ground and start to choke. now, you wait.

>very intellectual movie
If you say so.

Bunch of idiot scientists that basically don't know what the fuck they're doing for starters.

The Living and the Dead. You're welcome.

Mars attacks (6.3 on imdb what the fuck? that movie is brilliant!)
and Hook with Robin Williams (6.7 on imdb)

The starship from Prometheus looked like the half of Homer's Donut but nevertheless a horrible boring movie.

Best underrated movie is Sharknado.

You might like Europa Report OP.

I love Prometheus but if you think it's "intellectual" then you are not one.

I'm actually a biologist, more specifically a microbiologist. What that guy said is true. It made no sense at all and no matter where in the universe you are, certain rules will still aply and no being could ever thrive if dependant on a 5+ stage adaptation mechanism to its environment. It would go extinct easily.

total disappointment. Explain why it's intellectual and better than the original Alien film.

>"adaptation mechanism"

You mean reproductive cycle? You aren't a biologist. You don't have a degree.

Hint for all the kids in the thread who think they are super smart: The xenomorphs are a designed organism and are not supposed to be able to survive naturally, dumbasses.

But its not particularly underrated

I suppose you could argue its popular for the wrong reasons. A lot of girls fawn over the Holly Golightly character and look at to her as a source of inspiration for being independent and spending your life teasing men and sleeping around, when its obvious that if Holly continued down that path it would lead a life of increasingly temporary thrills and eventually a life without meaning or happiness

top bait

>Hint for all the kids in the thread who think they are super smart: The xenomorphs are a designed organism and are not supposed to be able to survive naturally, dumbasses.
cringed so hard

...

This.

Enjoyed the creation concept but everything that transpired after was rehashed nonsense.

The idea that humans already visited that craft and Charles Theron is underneath it completely ruins the haunting vibe of the first Alien movie. The behavior of some of the characters wasn't consistent.

And Wtf was up with guy Pierce as an old man?.!.. it was high school play production value..

The next movie looks like an Alien&Aliens best of.. fucking series has been spent ever since Aliens.

The opening to Prometheus makes more sense than evolution.

Give the new one a shot, we don't know yet.
Inconsistencies in character behavior in prometheus is due to cut scenes, but that doesnt excuse it. movie could've been a lot better. guy pierce makeup was not good enough.

Actually one of the best films, dare i say - my favorite? yes!

>The DNA of the aliens matches ours 100%.
>The aliens look only vaguely human.

A masterpiece. Probably went over my head.

Nigger DNA matches white 100%
>we look nearly identical kek

Probably went way over your head.

>Inception is a movie about a broken family,
>where the wife goes into a dreamworld where she's thinks is in total control of her character and desires,
>leaving her kids and man behind for what extends to fel like ages...,

Enought with that shit "Prometheus", more like this pls.

it isn't but the visuals are great.
dialoges and story are mostly dumb.

Let me fly my spaceship with my alien spaceflute ...

I hope this concludes the intellectual debate.

Put into more natural human terms,
Prometheus is a film about the identity shock and termoil and growing up discovering your parents aren't your real parents and you are adopted.
The search for your biological family reveals the sad truth why they dumped you in the first place

(i think you fell for the bait my friend)

The song from the Beatles
> I want to hold your hand
Is really about a handjob

Three things would have made this movie much better: did same basic googling before rattling off technobabble (half a million miles from Earth, really? That puts you just passed Jupiter), reshot the scene where they ran from the rolling engineer ship, and ditched the writer from Lost.

I'm excited for his next alien film which is Less then three months away.


Underrated- Dredd & Ex Machina

You mean "Paprika", right?

...

...

1) they didn't know it was a spacecraft at first, only an improbable natural phenomena that needed further investigation.

2) there were precautions, including mapping in-real-time and life-scanning "pups" to ensure their safety.

3) they were betrayed by a cyborg whose motive was a secret up until the almost very end.

It's just that people with no education (you) can't seem to take the time to think unless Hollywood gives you a piece of rancid shit like "Gravity", where astronauts defy basic common sense laws of gravity because it looks good on screen.

They obviously knew it was not a natural phenomenon.

But they never every try to solve anything. That's the problem with the movie. It was promoted as the answers to life's mysteries but it didn't solve shit. Also the new movie looks like just another standard Alien film, The Engineers are dead so why did it give that tag line if the story was going to go in another direction? That's why it sucked.

Scene was to highlight in comedy how a slightly less scientific person sees "35 light years".

To give you an idea, the movie says "35 light years".

One light year is over 5 trillion miles.

I think it's great though. Calls out all the faggots regurgitating Jew-media criticism. It's hard to think on your own.

If your IQ aint 200+ you just wouldn't understand

>Breakfast at Tiffany's
Sounds like a low budget porno

You little folk with no education and your "durrr is obvious yo".

Science doesn't give a shit about "obvious. Tried and true methods are all there is. Go to college.

Agent 9 recut was really good.

yes, coming from the guy who just typed "an phenomena"

Yes, coming from the guy who can't seem to capitalize the start of a sentence. Not a hypocrite at all.

big difference between apathy and ignorance. you can't really understand my perspective since i've been typing much longer than you've been alive

...

I don't care to understand anything about you, only your non-existent argument and how stupid it is.

You may want to use that vast typing experience, and stop acting like you have a severe mental disability by purposefully forgoing basic grammar.

the baseball game in Hook was top kek. the rest of the movie was a disaster

oh prinz pi?

shut the fuck up lol

>I'M SO SMART I TELL OTHER PEOPLE THEY AREN'T

If you want to prove it to us, smart people usually hang themselves

Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure is fucking awesome, very intellectual movie that is over the head of the common pleb

Movie about Jesus/about Hercules/about Gilgamesh/about Osiris 's adventures and rise from hero to demigod

And i thought I was a loser.

Yeah this line from Porno is always in my mind if I read the word Prometheus somewhere.

that was such fuckin nightmare fuel

That's bullshit.

So skin color is what? Determined by your cultural background?

well yeah youre right for this album he called himself porno again, excuse me my dear friend

man really, promotion on Sup Forums? and on Sup Forums? come on, very bad marketing. the next movie comes next month or so....shame on you

I double this.

Matrix was a milestone in movie production.
Hardly underrated. ;P

Great movie

the guard and kiss kiss bang bang

breakfast at tiffany's is so boring and slow. i like slow paced films, but i fucking hate that piece of shit.

i haven't seen prometheus but alien sucks, a child could make a better film.

mediocre

book is good, movie is shit

Loaded Weapon was easily one of National Lampoon's best films, great comedy that I feel doesn't get enough love.

No need for excuse my friend.

how old are u? 30? fuck off

dubs of truth

The Prestige with Christian Bale and Robert Downy Jr. A good bit of a mindfuck, tense and clever plot with a twist at the end that you won't believe you didn't pick up on. Kinda like The Book of Eli

spotted the 12yr old

wrong superhero faggot, it's Hugh Jackman not Downy

yeah fuck yeah

*I'd
