Prometheus

[teppic]

Are you deliberately ignoring the actual issue ?

It doesn't matter whether it's a quarantine situation or not. What matters is that she was prepared to let those three crew trapped outside die, for the sake of protocol. Then she's quite happy to risk everything to save the life of a cat.

Why does it not matter if it was quarantine? That is the point of quarantine. Don't let the infection into an enclosed space.

Haha, you guys are arguing a silly point!!!!

You guys do realize you are arguing, right?

Sorry Brezza mate but teppic is right.

If you follow Ripley's character arc she clearly is a career bitch at the start of the Film, and then allows her own humanity to infest her soul as the Alien infects the Ship.

That's why she left such a young daughter on Earth in the first place, and that's why they introduced the Newt character in the Sequel. She values innocence (the cat) more than Humanity (the crew)

Her interactions with the Cyborgs also illustrate this.

Good to see the Guardian just can't let this drop either.

A nice blog published today covering the main nonsense plot holes in this car crash of a movie. It even provides a link to a dedicated website that provides 100 (one hundred) plot holes in the film.

Name ten films that are completely flawless? I don't think I can think of any, and even though this film has PLENTY of flaws, it was enjoyable. Nothing wrong with debating, that's what this is all about but please stop disregarding everyone else's opinions ffs.

Godfather
Godfather II
Casablanca
Yojimbo
Alien
2001 a space odyssey
Psycho
Schindlers list
La Haine

And finally Bladerunner (Directors cut) - this is finally because most fittingly the version of Prometheus we have been subjected to is most definitely not Scotts vision. Not one bit.

[side note: Watched 'unstoppable' the other night, truely awful, abject and embarrassing]
