To quote myself from the other thread:

Quote
Prometheus. 6/10. Seriously underwhelming. Awash with Hollywood box ticking, bland, one-note characters and spectacular stupidity displayed by everyone on screen. It looks marvellous though, which earns almost all of those six marks.

I think if Scott could have decided between making an action flick or 2001 it might have come out far better.

I hope I'm still alive in the closing years of the 21st century when people want to give billions of funding to archaeologists on the basis of laughable whims.

that is $%&#ing hilarious!

other than that, saw it on the first day, was mildly diappointed in the gooeyness of everything and general movement away from giger and also that there were too many characters to get to know for length of the film, which was one of the strengths of Alien. and Aliens actually. at least in aliens they killed off the cannon fodder early. I hoped to be disturbed rather than scared, i was not. the squid alien looked shite, like something out of b movie. and i don't have great hopes for the sequel giving up any answers because that would consist of noomi rapace and michael fassbenders head doing a solo piece on an alien world without any other actors while single handly fighting an entire race of advanced aliens. I say fighting off, because lets face it, they were going to wipe us out, so i can't imagine they'll be prepared to sit down and chat with a member of our race who turns up in one of their nicked spaceships.
