Didn't watch the video but I don't think it was ever in doubt that the plot borrowed from common ideas. Most level headed people expected that.

Unless your in the abnormally high percentage that thought some kind of grand space mystery was about to make life more interesting.

Years ago, I remember laughing at Mission To Mars.

I'm not laughing now.

BANE

Why not? So you were laughing at the ideas instead of the other aspects of the movie?

Some astronauts get into that face of Mars and while in there they find out that Martians seeded life on Earth. Then they find out that inside of the face they are in a space ship that is leaving and one stays to find out stuff.

Much prefer Prometheus.

I've always thought "Red Planet" was better than "Mission To Mars". Gotta love Amee!

Who are you quoting there?

Anybody that thinks Prometheus has anything more vacuous to say than Mission To Mars.

Plot hole - if the Martians were advanced enough to build interstellar spacecraft, why couldn't they have detected and knockd out the asteroid before it hit the planet?

Don't you mean less? Your hatred would suggest so.

I've seen the movie. I just didn't watch whatever that clip was. I got the hint of the post though.

Apart from the dodgy CGI, I didn't mind that movie. Not that it was great, but not bad for a watch.

Ancient astronaut idea has been around for a very very long time.

The Martians dont leave until the planet is almost totally dead. They probably developed the tech as a result of the asteroid hit.

Yeah that's fine, i think it's more the going into a structure that turns out to have a spaceship and one astronaut decides to fly off that's a bit too close. Unless there is a string of movies that do the same.... is there?

As opposed to:

Engineer(s):
Our interstellar terraforming complex here on LV223 makes air for this hell-hole planet to enjoy one day...we should really have made a better design for the wierdo 'temple' storage chamber and keep the doors closed AT ALL TIMES (how about an airlock????) so that these air-triggered-booby-trapped mines dont go-off and release their black-goo by mistake!

Oh sh1t!
