problems I had with the film Prometheus

Rating: 10/10 (20 September 2012)

Things I found hard and easy to rationalise with in Prometheus.
1. I could except the fact they froze themselves for two years while travelling at the speed of light into the deepest reaches of outer space, DESPITE THE FACT NEITHER OF THESE THINGS ARE POSSIBLE!.
2 I could except that they could walk around the space ship and for some reason ignore the rules of physics and stay rooted to the floor because they somehow mastered the laws of gravity in space ships in outer space AGAIN NOT POSSIBLE!.
3. I could except that they made a robotic man who could navigate their spaceship while they slept, sorry were frozen.
4. I could except them walking on the surface of the planet, even though humans have evolved to live on earth, if you walked along the surface of Jupiter you would be burned to death, on Venus you would be crushed by the gravity, and on mars which is probably the closest planet to ours we would die because there is no oxygen, AGAIN NOT POSSIBLE ANY PHYSISIST WOULD KNOW THIS!.
5. I could even accept the fact that some guy would give these biologists and geologists money to go into deep space to find the elephantine gods who created life on our planet by sacrificing themselves and breaking down their own d.n.a so we could live.
I GUESS THIS ALL COMES DOWN TO SUSPENSION OF DISBELIEF I MEAN I HAD NO PROBLEM WHEN RIPLEY PUT ON A SPACE SUIT IN ALIEN TO BLOW AN ALIEN OUT OF AN AIR LOCK, YET IN ALIENS SHE DID THE SAME THING AGAIN BUT WITHOUT THE AID OF A SPACE SUIT YET LIVED, DESPITE THE FACT THE OXYGEN CREATED SOMEHOW IN THAT Environment WOULD HAVE BEEN SUCKED STRAIGHT INTO OUTER SPACE! IN FACT EVERY PERSON WHO HAS REVIEWED PROMETHEUS HAS ACCEPTED ALL OF THESE THINGS ABOVE AN NOT GRIPED ABOUT THEM! IN FACT IF I CAN Remember THE MARINES IN ALIENS WALK AROUND THE PLANET WITHOUT OXYGEN OR SPACE SUITS APPARENTLY IT HAD BEEN TERRAFORMED SINCE ALIEN 1. I GUESS I CAN LET THIS GO BECAUSE IT'S SUSPENSION OF DISBELIEF, IN SHORT A MOVIE, A FANTASY, AN ESCAPE, OR PIECE OF ESCAPISM!!! What I could not get on board with though and were so infeasible that they ruined the whole experience for me and various other idiots who post their stupid reviews on this site were things like the following.
1. They didn't act like biologists, I can't prove that because I won't be alive in 2094 in order to find out, also if a biologist went into deep space to meet the elephant man they wouldn't do the following thing's because there stupid.
1a, take their helmets off despite the fact they said the air was breathable because the inside of the ruin had been terror formed (GO FIGURE, WHAT CRAZY STUFF WILL THEY DREAM UP NEXT), at first I thought this was some crazy plot point, if they take off their helmets then when the male character gets infected by the robot and his girlfriend gets infected by him they wouldn't suspect the robot of infecting him they would assume it was the atmosphere in the ruin.
2.a They couldn't carbon date the remains of an alien as fast as they did and they wouldn't move it, that's bad biology. Although they did freeze themselves and they do have a robot butler, extraordinary, I've never met an alien or seen a dead one I don't think any biologists have either but when and if they do and I meet them I will be sure to ask them if what they did in Prometheus was in fact the proper protocol for such an event.
3a they had glass helmets, I mean they can walk around there own ship and ignore gravity, yet they wore glass helmets, THAT'S NOT REALISTIC! THE SCIENCE WAS JUST TO UNBELIEAVABLE I MEAN I KNOW SCIECE FICTION MOVIES HAVE HAD PEOPLE WANDERING AROUND ON PLANETS SINCE THE GENRE BEGAN LIKE IN ALIENS, OR PLANET OF THE VAMPIRES OR FIRST MEN IN THE MOON OR IN EVERY DOCTOR WHO EPISODE THATS EVER BEEN MADE AND IN EACH CASE WITHOUT SUITS TO HELP THEM BREATH, BUT IN THIS FILM I'M SORRY IT DOESN'T GET AWAY WITH IT AFTER ALL THIS IS SUPPOSED TO BE A COSTUME DRAMA NOT AND I REPEAT NOT A WORK OF SCIENCE FICTION, I WILL SAY THAT LAST WORD AGAIN, FICTION, THERE YOU GO, ONE MORE TIME FOR GOOD MEASURE, FICTION!!!! Now I didn't enjoy Prometheus a lot because it bored me, but it's not the worst film in the world, maybe I spit on your grave is, or perhaps murder set pieces, I don't know, I know there are various idiots who can't forgive the film for its outrageous stupidity, but all I can say is this if you watch this film and have problems with the infeasibility of some of the characters actions or the physical impossibilities then you really are the dumbest most stupid bunch of morons. To all the people who gave it a one, that's fine most of you hated it, and according to your profiles most of you signed up to air your grievances with this one film well I applaud you, BUT I WILL SAY THIS BIG AND BOLD SO YOU CAN READ IT, BY GIVING THIS FILM A ONE FROM NOW ON WHAT YOU WILL BASICALLY BEING SAYING, AND I KNOW THESE THINGS GET READ, BUT BY GIVING IT A ONE YOUR SAYING THAT YOU ARE A STUPID DICK! IF YOU HATE IT FINE MAYBE IT WAS BORING OR BADLY ACTED BUT DON'T TALK RUBBISH SAYING A FICTIONAL FILM IGNORED THE RULES OF REALISM THAT EXIST IN A HUGELY FICTIONAL GENRE AS THIS ONE. AND IF YOU JUST JOINED UP TO SLAG OFF THIS FILM THEN YOU'RE AN EVEN BIGGER DICK! 6 out of 10
