Ya. That ceasarean birth was something else, huh. Too bad if that scene got messed up.
Mind you, I haven't seen 'Prometheus' for a while. I'm well overdue for another viewing of the movie. I bet the same things will bother me when I do get to watch it... The captain casually standing at his dais without any safety restraints while the ship lands... The idiot biologist who wants to play with space snakes just to impress the equally idiot geologist who goes to another planet and fails to pick up a single rock... The exploding head that explodes because, well, it explodes... The complete breach of any safety measures by removal of protective helmets simply because oxygen has been detected... Shaw's occasional smugness, particularly her "Well, who made them, Smart ass?" comments and attitude... Dumb stuff like that which could have easily been fixed in the script did kind of spoil the movie for me. Most of the rest of the movie and the terrific questions it raises totally worked for me. Unfortunately, 'Prometheus' was uneven.
I'm happy to see Noomi return though. Her reprisal of Shaw will provide some much needed connectivity to both movies. I'm hoping for a meaner, leaner Shaw this time around. After all, she's heading to an Alien world with so much loss behind her. Her character development will probably be the most important aspect of the movie considering what she has already endured. I'm very interested in seeing how that pans out in this new movie. I'm expecting a very different Shaw this time around.
