Prometheus (2012)


View attachment 2542420

In the Alien Franchise arguably this is the most important film after the 1) House of Horror, 2) The Pay Back.
3) Was just more downer horror house fodder. 4) Horrible lure to the box office 5&6) AvP really a different story
7) Prometheus the hope was this was the path forward, major questions answered about the Engineers, and the why? So much potential offered. Shocking, great visuals.

David is a a great character, Android, only as evil as his maker commanded him, he should be viewed as a sociopath. And he proves it in 8) Covenant, just more nonsense that fails the overall potential of a story like this. 9) Romulus just more House of Horrors… been there , done that.

Now ironically it’s a TV series Alien Earth that bring more to the franchise and this is a prequel to the original film but it’s the same universe and might branch off, or maybe finish, at least providing more meaningful meat to this narrative.

Prometheus is an excellent movie, I've seen it a few times now.

The show not so much, I stopped watching after 2 episodes.

I very much like the show. Just curious what you did not like?
 
Captain America: The Winter Soldier (2014)- One of the finest Marvel films from the Infinity Stone Era (but no Infinity Stones to speak of here), Capt American saves America from Shield/Hydra and reunites with an old friend. Great all around, all star cast, great story.

Death Becomes Her (1992)- PLOT SPOILER
I liked this movie comedy, but the plot never made sense to me. If you take a potion that rejuvenates your body to give you immortality, in essence it heals the body’s aging, but what about injury? And if you die from injury, you remain animated, I reason the healing qualities should continue, but they don’t, you just become an animated but thinking, aware, rotting body unless you inject yourself with embalming fluid.
If in the position of these 2 characters, the best choice would be to shed your body via fire, become a Spector, and hope there is some path out of this mortal plain…. 😐
Thev worst aspect of the plot is what the customers of this potion were not told, what I just described. :)
