[quote][i]Originally posted by Balling[/i] [quote][i]Originally posted by SetH[/i] Just found this review and without doubt it is the most honest and spot on review on the whole interwebz IMHO [url=http://www.disclose.tv/forum/troll2rocks-prometheus-in-depth-review-spoilers-ahead-t73069.html]Prometheus Review[/url] [/quote] A lot of truth there. Remember when we started hearing mixed messages from Ridley and the actors? Ridley saying it was definitely not a prequel but a few actors stating it was? I don't think they fucking knew. It's actually hard to tell from the film, whether it's suppose to a prequel or a stand alone story. [size=6]!!! SPOILERS !!![/size] Black liquid = biological weapon, that mutates what it comes in to contact with into a, for a lack of better word, evil monster. We see earthworms turn in to facehugger-ish creatures and we se Charlie start to slowly transform after a small exposure. Charlie's seed turns in to a four legged octopus inside shaw (doesn't adapt to either hosts genetics, like the Xenomorphs) that grows up to be a giant facehugger with a teethed vagina (operation scene was pretty intense by the way). Fifield is face down in the black liquid for the entire night and goes through a seemingly less radical transformation than Charlie and then goes on a rampage. Millburn is chocked to death by the earthworm facehugger thing, but we don't actually see if something is planted in him. The facehuggers deliberately keeps their victims alive for the Xenomorphs to grow. The worm thing choked Millburn to death. Maybe a design flaw? Earthworms are too low a species to be mutated in to a proper weapon? The "vases" contain glass viles of black liquid, but start overflowing the moment the crew enters the room with the giant head, the Xenomorph mural and the green crystal. Defense mechanism? As for the Engineers trying to transport these weapons to earth 2000 years ago, David explains this part by saying "sometimes, to create you must first destroy". We know for a fact that planets with an atmosphere like ours is extremely rare. The Engineers are trying to create something, but the humans are not it, so they decide to start over. OR they see how quickly humanity evolves and decide we might turn out to be a threat? There is a link between the Engineers making humans and the humans making David (robots). Were we created to be slaves for the Engineers? The cave paintings show the Engineers being worshipped. Did they occasionally drop by to pick up a fresh bash of slaves until they were wiped out by their own bio weapons? The film is pretty inconclusive in almost every part. It looks fantastic and I was very entertained. In the end, I just wasn't satisfied by what I got. I seemed to tease more than it delivered. [/quote]
