I really don't think there is anything to it. They tried to go epic and got avalanche by the sheer scale of work that needed to be done.

Oh and about that 2001 comparison thing...

Quote from: wikipedia"The old race of man is about to be replaced by the "star child", which was conceived by the meeting of the spaceship and Jupiter. MacLeod also sees irony in man as a creator (of HAL) on the brink of being usurped by his own creation. Thus, by destroying HAL, man symbolically rejects his role as creator and steps back from the brink of his own destruction."

Thus the engineers reject their role as creators by choosing to destroy their own creation(man) to evade certain doom. Yea...

Eh. what really matters is what ends up onscreen. Cant fault him for playing the game well and getting $$$.

QuoteIt was going to be an intellectually challenging movie that dealt with profound questions about life, the universe and everything.

And as you know that's exactly what they were aiming for.. so you agree that it's garbage! Cheers bro! My shout! ;D

So if a movie isn't about life, the universe and everything it's worthless? That's a rather blinkered view to have. I'd be interested to see what you have in your collection - as something tells me that your collection probably doesn't reflect your thoughts on Prometheus.  ;)

No, if a movie is about creation, life and death then it is either a good movie that handles those themes well or it is Prometheus.

And my collection is made up almost entirely of Red Dwarf DVDs. Prometheus is not worthy! ;)

What a black and white view you have on this Chris... you mustn't enjoy much. And as much as I love Red Dwarf, I can't believe that's the only thing in your DVD/blu-ray collection  ;)
