Every Pop Culture Reference From Tarantino's Movies; Director Calls PROMETHEUS "Dumb"

Huh!!! Why is everyone hating on Prometheus?

I liked prometheus but theres no denying the amount of stupid crap that happened in the movie

most dissapointed movie of the year.

i liked prometheus not as good as alien or blade runner but i still enjoyed it.it definitely would make my ten best films of 2012.

@ Tea funny stuff. Prometheus was the most disappointing film of the year for me and that is only because I had such high hopes for it. I would think twice before seeing the sequel

Meh,I liked it.

Prometheus had a brilliant first 45 minutes (despite the lack of action). The build up felt alot like a blowjob with no payoff..

Well, they had enough jars to infect all of humanity. They were planning to one day go to Earth. They obviously needed us to show up to wake them to let them know we were "ready", judging from all the symbols they left of "hey go here". So if I had to guess, Earth is nothing more than a breeding colony for either more of them or we are nothing more than tissue used to make weapons out of the goo. But that's all guess work. Watching the movie again, they don't really have the jockey reveal anything. It was literally designed to be the questions to be answered in the sequel.

Lots of stuff was stupid didn't make sense in Prometheus but I still liked it and even more on Blu Ray. Go figure.

They missed a shitload of references in that College Humor thing. But it was pretty good, regardless.
I don't think Tarantino disliked the movie that much. That guy with the space cobra was stupid, but it doesn't make the film stupid, just the character in the film. It's definitely one of those shout at the screen moments.
I think the main reason that people dislike this film is that it was hyped to the wrong crowd. Us lot. We're a different buncha geeks than we were 30 years back. We wouldn't care for films like Bladerunner, these days. We'd feel punked by it, like it let us down, because there weren't enough action scenes and it wasn't as fast-paced as it looked in the trailer. Geeks these days are just kids who want a summer blockbuster to be the most satisfying by the criteria of action, effects, excitement, etc. They want big, bigger, biggest. If it's something that inspires thought, then it has to be bloody profound or why bother thinking at all, just blow something up. We don't want themes or characters or emotions or psychology or art or any of that bullshit.
We're like drunk, horny women. We want the biggest dick we can find and we want it to give us multiple orgasms and satisfy us in every way possible. And if it ain't as good as the last guy then it can [frick] off. Wait this one wants to talk afterwards?! [frick] that.

Y'know, "beyond the web"?

I liked prometheus, but it was definitely sequel bait, but as long as the sequel is good I can probably forgive Ridley Scott for that.

IMO it was terrible, its greatest flaw was trying to explain the origin of the Alien in a way that made no sense. Maybe it would have worked better as an unrelated movie.

And now wait for the (justified, I'm sure) Blade Runner hate.

Back in the early '80s, when a film like Bladerunner or Heavy Metal or Evil Dead came out, it was like a few drops of water for dying men in the desert. Now, when The Avengers and Prometheus and The Dark Knight Rises come out, we're like Jabba The Hut, spitting out a plate of chips.
