To then have Oram decide, "Yeah, nah, you're probably trustworthy," came off as totally illogical.
Other things people regularly pick on, like Faris losing her shit on the lander, seemed pretty fair to me given what was going on at the time.
Prometheus was much worse in the dumbness stakes imo.
Yep.
Prometheus had the scientist continually try to touch a hissing organisim that even did what cobras did when hostile and unfolded their hood.
Yeah, I'm not even gonna attempt to defend Prometheus 🤣 I love the movie enough to watch it regularly, but I can enjoy it whilst acknowledging the writing is complete and utter shyte. 🤣
(Moreover, having just binged 'Constellation' series one on appleTV, it made it clear to me how wasted Noomi Rapace was.. she would have been a good choice for an actual 'Alien' movie.. her acting skills weren't utilised for the role of Shaw at all..)
