I'm not a scientist but I could have sworn standard procedure was to slowly back away from unknown creatures especially freaky looking ones in an abandoned base where you saw a hologram of giants running away from something.
Lol, right?! I don't even think he was some crazy biologist or anything. Also why wouldn't he start cutting it as soon as it grabbed him instead of waiting until his arm was literally snapped in two?
So if people wanted a "straight up alien prequel", then thats means they basically wanted the engineer at the end to not get out of his ship when it is hit, and instead gets the indigestion thing, and out pops a Queen category Xenomorph, that then burns whole through the ship flaw, into a cavern and spends her days laying a crap load of eggs, then dies?? Sounds simple, sounds neat. But then...... What about that whole stasis field? Would have just happened to lay all those eggs in all those bays? and the Juggernaut ship's computer just auto switched the stasis field on to preserve them? And then, what about what Dallas said when he described the space jockey, "been here a long time, appears to have fossilized." Now how long does it take for something to "fossilize??" A lot longer than 30 YEARS I think.
kelly wilson whitehead But it would not be justifiable to many Alien fans, only the casual ones who want it resolved so they can move safely onto more new Xenos and a near-old Ripley after Aliens, discounting Alien 3 and 4 and dieing to the Xenos properly this time huh.
Evilmike42 lol where did that come from? Im not some Von Daniken fanboy, he sold out as soon as he started making a theme park out of the very things he was exploring. The ancient astronaut theories fit well with the idea of the "Space Jockey" - and thats John 11:35 - Jesus Wept, you want Leviticus Chapter 22, Verse 3 - For the generations to come, if any of your descendants is ceremonially unclean and yet comes near the sacred offerings (Black goo Urns), that person must be cut off from my presence. I am the Lord." This is interesting because you hate on me for the missunderstanding that I am some sort of academic science nut, yet I believe the two - religon and evolution may go hand in hand. You dont need to insult me, but we should explore this together, if you are indeed religous but have a open mind. But if you're simply a science fiction fan, I hope you enjoy Alien: Covenant when it comes out next yr :)
Prometheus had great potential if only the scientists on this very important mission could take their jobs a little more seriously instead of behaving like freshmen having a first week party. They couldn't get a better geologist than a stoner with a f***-all attitude? The top biologist really had to touch an alien snake looking very aggressive? A person with no higher education would know better than to do something so utterly foolish, especially in an encounter with a lifeform we know absolutely nothing about. Why was Holloway so disappointed when his precious "engineers" all turned out to be dead? What made him assume they would just all be there alive and well, answering all his questions? I thought scientists never assume anything and always are prepared to have their hypothesis derailed. All they had from the very start was just a very bold guess. A fine cast, excellent cinematography and top notch production is wasted on a story that could be improved.
I remember reading somewhere that the reason why the team seemed like a bunch of amateurs was because they basically were - they weren't the best in their fields, just the only ones stupid enough to accept an offer for a job that they were told nothing about As for Holloway, I've got no idea - that guy was just an arsehole.
I don't think education have anything to do with it. I am just a high school graduate and I know better. Then again schools just teach knowledge not wisdom.
I can already picture how Alien Covenant should have ended. Captain Oram: "We should go investigate this suspicious planet!" Daniels: "No, we've done the research and brought the materials to go to this other planet which we know will be a safe place for us and we have to protect these 2,000 colonists." Captain Oram: "Oh ya, you're right. Let's not go." The end.
This ignores 2 very important facts and thus doesn't work: 1. They received an audio message that was clearly human singing a human earth song. 2. Everyone was terrified to re-enter cryosleep after the movie clearly shows how the first captain burned to death in his cryopod.
@@eddiencstate if they were rescue ship sure, but this was a colony ship with over 2000 people on board that was already on an important mission. They should’ve just logged the signal’s location and sent it back to the authorities for a proper investigation instead of just winging it. Though to be fair, these are the same people who couldn’t be bothered to wear any safety protection despite being on a completely unknown planet with unknown pathogens and wildlife. And their leader was a guy who literally shoved his head in an alien egg because a creepy android told him to, so I guess they had what was coming to them 😂
What annoyed me the MOST in this movie: The 2 guys gets lost (okay fine), but one of the guys left the group in the first place because he was so scared and nervous... And then the vagina snake comes creeping out of the black gew, and he's all like "heerre kitty kitty!!!" WTF THAT THING IS TERRIFYING AND CLEARLY DANGEROUS!! DON'T FUCKING TOUCH IT!!! RUN RUN RUN! But nope. He just stands there and reaches out to it. I wanted to throw my drink at the screen and boo. The writing could not have been more mediocre.
Actually there was supposed to be a scene where the vagina snakes play with the dumbass in a friendly manner. That's why the idiot thoughtthe vagina snakes were cute.They cut the scene off so that scene became a joke
Ben Kim Even if the vagina snake is playing friendly, YOU DON'T PLAY WITH AN ALIEN VAGINA SNAKE, especially when it's a creature that materialized from a mysterious black muck. Besides... the guy was presented to us as a coward. Even if the snake was playing friendly, he'd be terrified. The writers were really lazy when it came to character development.
The problem with Prometheus is that they cut loads out of the final film. If you look online for deleted scenes (as there are lots of deleted scenes that for some reason are not on the DVD's extras) you can see that the film did actually explain itself quite well (see the scene where Shaw is watching the footage back), and the Engineer even has a whole conversation with David before he kills Weyland + Shaw has a battle with the Engineer before the giant face hugger kills him. Although Prometheus and Aliens have different directors, they both had the same problem - time constraints. They should have released a directors cut of this film like they did with Aliens to explain the plot a bit better. I had to read a few wikis and watch the film a couple of times before I got what was happening.
There are so many things I love about this. The running and stuff after having a c-section, the not stepping sideways out of the ship's way, the dopey talking alien at the end, and all that. Super funny and perfect. But I especially like that final scene. Normally you guys just do humor and common-sense sort of stuff, but that ending is literally, really and truly, exactly precisely how the story should have ended. No only would it have been cooler, but it also would have made the overarching story much more continuous. Congratulations guys.
What annoyed me most about Prometheus? The fact that a little movie called Alien was made 30 years ago for a small budget and is infinitely more psychologically scary and realistic! No sequel!!
Kaleb Bruwer Yeah, but they still could have followed Shaw to the Engineer home world in which some of the questions posed in Prometheus are answered. Not a valid excuse.
"David make sure you don't say anything offensive to the engenirre when he awakes" "Of course father" 10 seconds later "Your mother thinks alien vs predator is better" It's always killing me
My problems with this movie (in no particular order): 1 - "Hey everyone look! Despite having all of this great technology at our disposal, I found what must be an alien base with my eyes after being here for only 5 minutes!" 2 - "I'm in charge of the maps! Oh no, I'm lost!" 3 - "I'm scared! Hey, look at the cute snake!" 4 - "Don't touch anything! Let's touch everything!" 5 - "I believe because I want to and I don't need to tell you why before you die horribly!" 6 - "I'm an old man who didn't have to act dead but did anyway to surprise the audience even though they won't be surprised!" 7 - "I'm a super intelligent robot who is programmed to think that killing people for the cause of science is perfectly normal and acceptable!" 8 - "I used to be the main character's main squeeze, but now I'm a zombie because...well, this movie needed some!" 9 - "Look everyone! We have a medical unit from the future that only works for men?" (seriously, WTF) 10 - "Oh no, the engineer has been impregnated and a new alien will hatch, on a barren planet....alone....and die. Okay...." 11 - Charlize Theron can not turn left? 12 - Good idea, great cinematography, OK acting, bad plot, worse screen writing (or should that be "worst"? Let me know). 13 - "I know, we should blow something up for no reason! Here, lets use this engineer head! It's perfect! The nerds will talk about how we blew their minds about how engineers look like humans and then literally blew an engineer mind on the screen for years to come! He, he, nerds and fan-boys are so stupid." (producers)
Ridley Scott has stated that they will need TWO MORE movies to link it back to the original alien film.... Thank you HISHE for doing in twelve seconds what Scott wants to do in four hours.
This whole movie is run on the android knowing how to do stuff. There's no way he'd know any of that stuff unless humans did first, so they could program him. Sure he could learn, but he just takes one look at unknown alien technology and it just like, "Yep, just like my laptop at home." BS.
Actually they showed a scene where he was studying languages and hieryphics and stuff, pretty sure he explained that to shaw or charlize therons character at some point
I didn't have a problem with that. He could have been very adept at inferring meaning. It's a little unbelievable but not outside the realm of suspension of disbelief.
I just realized Prometheus is basically Alien vs Predator (2004) without the Alien and the Predator, with a bunch of pseudo scientific gibberish set in the distant future.
Yeah @ 2:41 is how it really should had ended as described in the first alien film then that would explain the distress signal at lv 426 seeing the giant humanoid skeleton with big fucking hole in its chest.
I like how the engineer didn't get nearly as mad when he said his wife slept with the old guy, it was his mom thinking AvP is awesome that made him go ballistic
It was not a prequel because the facts in Prometheus DO NOT fit in with the facts in the earlier Alien movies. What Ridley Scott did was to take the story in a different direction in order to explore a 'What if..' scenario, and because he is Ridley Scott and has access to Hollywood's mythical Life Blood (a.k.a. large quantities of cash), nobody, repeat NOBODY is going to deny him. There is just no pleasing some people though; everyone is a critic! I mean seriously, I can take a year or more to make an excellent reality-based drama, recruit an awesome cast of well-known celebrities and people STILL pick it apart. Do half as well with a Science Fiction movie and there is a pretty good chance you will "break even" in the box office receipts and then clean-up in the DVD rental and after-market products market. Hell, I brought the Prometheus hard cover photo book because I love Science Fiction and I don't HONESTLY care if the friggin' story makes complete sense or not! So, here Ridley Scott, take my money please, oh, and I'll by the book also. Plus, IF you actually make a sequel to this non-prequel, yea, I will see that one too!
"Prometheus was punished by the gods for giving the gift of knowledge to man. He was cast into the bowels of the earth and pecked by birds." ~Oracle Turret Reply if you get the reference.
Only for the fight scenes. The fans wanted Colonial Marines vs Aliens, not this boring cross-over plot. It ruined the suspense, horror, and originality that Alien/Aliens is famous for.
***** It's the same concept is what I'm getting at. Instead having a bunch of Space Marines fighting the Aliens we see the Predator monsters duke it with the Aliens. Really there isn't much difference in concept between the two movies.
Straight Busta! ''I am pressing every button, i can find!'' "It may look like I am, but Im actually pressing specific buttons that I have worked out and learned through my cognitive memory, afterall we robots do learn and pick up on things a heck of alot quicker than you humans".
Fans: "How did the Xenomorph's originate?" Prometheus: "Oh, see, the aliens who created humans had this black goo that an android put in a drink that a man drank, infecting him. He then knocked up his wife while infected, and she gave birth to a giant mutant Facehugger who impregnated an original alien creator to give birth to a Chestburster that became the original Xenomorph queen, who laid the eggs that would become Xenomorphs."
u don't say, predators kicking the butts of alien on the big screen was like a dream come true for me, if anyone one of those came before me I would literally piss my pants ^o^
its funny the stunt they pulled with Prometheus, they made this bad script full of plot holes and than they said only smart people get it and every one wants to pretend they do .
Really, that's just a 'pulp SF/action' movie cliché. No matter what the threat that comes up from behind, ALWAYS keep running away from it, while everyone full well knows that: 1) exploding flames travel a 100x faster 2) a running bear easily overtakes and mangles human 3) even if it's a sleepwalking zombie, NEVER go around it, cut any corners or try to do take some sensible evasive action. Running away is the only thing that crazy humans can do in stupid action movies.
1:38 if you recall, the alien doesnt even show any sign of anger..he looks at the robot dude compassionately and just slowly reaches for his head (with the compassionate face on still), and just simply rips his head off....I lol'd cuz it looked too funny....
Agreed. My higher brain's persistent demand for good common sense hated Prometheus. My thinly veiled foot fetish, however, _loved_ Prometheus. Noomi Rapace's bare feet should have received a Best Supporting Actor award. >:)
I'm not a scientist but I could have sworn standard procedure was to slowly back away from unknown creatures especially freaky looking ones in an abandoned base where you saw a hologram of giants running away from something.
If i see a hologram like that first i run away. second i call reenforcements

That film was laughable. It had huge potential, but they just ruined it. A prequel to Alien should have been a lot different to this.
It wasn't even a prequel. It just took place in the Alien Universe there's a difference.
Joselito Rosales
That doesn't change the fact that the movie sucked.
Joselito Rosales duh it was so obviously a prequel! any idiot who thinks that it wasn't obviously just didn't understand "alien"
I think Ridley Scot knew it sucked so he didn't even dare call it a prequel and just lamely said "uh it happens in the same universe..."
It was not a prequel because the facts in Prometheus DO NOT fit in with the facts in the earlier Alien movies. What Ridley Scott did was to take the story in a different direction in order to explore a 'What if..' scenario, and because he is Ridley Scott and has access to Hollywood's mythical Life Blood (a.k.a. large quantities of cash), nobody, repeat NOBODY is going to deny him.
There is just no pleasing some people though; everyone is a critic! I mean seriously, I can take a year or more to make an excellent reality-based drama, recruit an awesome cast of well-known celebrities and people STILL pick it apart. Do half as well with a Science Fiction movie and there is a pretty good chance you will "break even" in the box office receipts and then clean-up in the DVD rental and after-market products market. Hell, I brought the Prometheus hard cover photo book because I love Science Fiction and I don't HONESTLY care if the friggin' story makes complete sense or not!
So, here Ridley Scott, take my money please, oh, and I'll by the book also. Plus, IF you actually make a sequel to this non-prequel, yea, I will see that one too!
whats funny is that this isn't any different than the movie. the movie was ridiculous enough to be its own parody video.
Yeah, the problem is, it's a little bit too long for a parody :)
01:27 Just about fell over laughing when this hit the screen.
"Prometheus was punished by the gods for giving the gift of knowledge to man. He was cast into the bowels of the earth and pecked by birds." ~Oracle Turret
Reply if you get the reference.
Yup
Can u explain
"The claw!!"...*classic*.
Let's be completely honest, everybody liked Alien vs Predator.
Only for the fight scenes. The fans wanted Colonial Marines vs Aliens, not this boring cross-over plot. It ruined the suspense, horror, and originality that Alien/Aliens is famous for.
Jokairou Kaminari
No it didn't. Alien vs Predator was no worse of a movie than Alien 2 which was probably the best Alien movie in the franchise.
Cody Austin Alien 2 was called Aliens, but yeah, I guess AVP was lower quality, still cool.
*****
It's the same concept is what I'm getting at. Instead having a bunch of Space Marines fighting the Aliens we see the Predator monsters duke it with the Aliens. Really there isn't much difference in concept between the two movies.
Cody Austin :( I thought Aliens was pretty good. Alien3 was kinda just horror though.
yes! space Jockey chestburster ending would be perfect. maybe in Prometheus 4
ziljin that should be Alien
LOL! Did the Architect say 'Oden sleep' as he was waking up? HA!
1:42-1:44 I think so, if you listen closely.
THE CLAW....
Omg Lmfao
that was funny
"WE ARE EXPLORERS!"
''I am pressing every button, i can find!''
Straight Busta!
''I am pressing every button, i can find!''
"It may look like I am, but Im actually pressing specific buttons that I have worked out and learned through my cognitive memory, afterall we robots do learn and pick up on things a heck of alot quicker than you humans".
Wait, Prometheus is 12 YEARS OLD ALREADY?! ...omfg...
Fans: "How did the Xenomorph's originate?"
Prometheus: "Oh, see, the aliens who created humans had this black goo that an android put in a drink that a man drank, infecting him. He then knocked up his wife while infected, and she gave birth to a giant mutant Facehugger who impregnated an original alien creator to give birth to a Chestburster that became the original Xenomorph queen, who laid the eggs that would become Xenomorphs."
i lost it at "it's an alien wiener snake"
me to and I am a man XD
The Claw!!!!! Haha best part ever
The Prometheus school of running away will go down in history!
Who else saw this most likely because of Alien: Romulus on their feed and is shocked that this movie is 12 years old?!
To be honest, the best thing about the whole prometheus movie is this funny clip.
Well done
I liked Alien vs. Predator
It's kind of a B, B+ movie, but it's pretty decent, yeah. I also enjoyed it.
simontheewok yeah the sequel was weak tho :(
badsaddamdotnet AVP1 was a good movie. AVPR was a horrible trainwreck.
made for kids, ruined the franchise. like freddu kruger.
u don't say, predators kicking the butts of alien on the big screen was like a dream come true for me, if anyone one of those came before me I would literally piss my pants ^o^
I don't think anyone will ever forget the ship rolling part. Just run to the side. WHAT ARE YOU DOING MOVE ASIDE.
1:58 welcome to the Prometheus school of running away from things
"Im a Prequel"
"I am Groot"
"Im a Prequel"
"I am Groot"
"Im a Prequel"
"I am Groot"
i am drunk\
I'm BATMAN!
Lol I love the Toy Story reference
christopher davis the clawwww
THE CLAAAAAAAAW!
"The clawwww" I'm fucking dying here 🤣🤣🤣
Most of these are mostly humorous, but that ending really was a missed opportunity...
its funny the stunt they pulled with Prometheus, they made this bad script full of plot holes and than they said only smart people get it and every one wants to pretend they do .
Who said that?
Master Boss Smart people :-)
1:57 As a certain UA-cam would say: *The Prometheus School of Running Away from Things*
The claw! THAT WAS HILARIOUS!! 🤣😂
This was the most incredible, mild, sort of, so so thing I've seen in months.
lol its funnier after i actually saw the movie xD
2:09 Because they were surrounded by falling debris and their only protection was running under the ship, which you didn't animate.
That running into the shadow is so true
IM A PREQUELLLL -baby xenomorph
If I were the ppl in the ending, I would run SIDEWAYS
Nathan Chenov
Scientific fact right there
Really, that's just a 'pulp SF/action' movie cliché. No matter what the threat that comes up from behind, ALWAYS keep running away from it, while everyone full well knows that: 1) exploding flames travel a 100x faster 2) a running bear easily overtakes and mangles human 3) even if it's a sleepwalking zombie, NEVER go around it, cut any corners or try to do take some sensible evasive action. Running away is the only thing that crazy humans can do in stupid action movies.
At 2:32 I agree with that ending!
I think the ship on lv 426 was already there but who know what covenant’s sequel has.
"The Monster who took you from me will soon learn that revenge is a dish
best served cold"
1:38
if you recall, the alien doesnt even show any sign of anger..he looks at the robot dude compassionately and just slowly reaches for his head (with the compassionate face on still), and just simply rips his head off....I lol'd cuz it looked too funny....
I actually Liked The film
1:18 is that Joe's voice from Family Guy?
Sure sounded like it to me at first...
And yes that's Patrick Warburton the voice of joe
Mccallish M I don't think that sounded like Patrick. Voice credits were shown and his name was not there.
Guitarfollower22 i believe it was brock baker. he does a lot of celebrity impressions on his channel
It said it was Brock baker my bad
This wasn't really how it should've ended, it was how it ended.
did anyone else die the the claw part?
U didnt understand the claw thing, explain please
The best thing about this movie was Nomie Rampace's legs
Yep
+AttentionJunkie Noomi Rapace**
she has weird nipples
Assoholic Bitch ScreenJunkies sent you didn't they?
Agreed. My higher brain's persistent demand for good common sense hated Prometheus.
My thinly veiled foot fetish, however, _loved_ Prometheus. Noomi Rapace's bare feet should have received a Best Supporting Actor award. >:)
Apparently I don't remember half the characters in this movie
much better story than the original
The air quotes around ‘scoentists’ was perfect. “Booo!” Indeed.
This is an Alien prequel but for the way it started, we now need a pre-prequel. How did the engineers end up on LV-223 and how did they die?
Yeah I think that would make for a far more interesting movie.
