Because they boasted him as our best creation and was nothing but mechanical shit to him or something.
You know, since they think themselves as Gods for creating species around the galaxy, so they saw this guy demanding immortality and acting as an equal, and shit just went south pretty quickly.

I like Ridley Scott and in many ways I enjoyed Prometheus a lot but the plot was all over the place and it doesn't hold up to subsequent viewings unless you are literally ignoring every stupid part of the movie.

Criticism of Prometheus generally revolves around a few failures by the audience:

- being unable to identify the viewpoint character
- misjudging Weyland's character
- being unable to read visuals
- accepting anything stated in character dialogue as true
- treating the film as a documentary of a literal expedition
- not knowing the greek myth of Prometheus very well

Everyone worth a damn noticed the problems with this film but you have to remember that this film wasn't made with people that pay attention in mind.

It was made to rope in as many people with low attention spans as possible and leave lots of loose ends that would need sequels to tie up.

You might assume that DNA is required for all life since its found both on earth and in alien life in this story and use some sort of advanced future PCR technique to check for any DNA or RNA in the environment at all, that isn't human.

Failing to find that you could be certain there are no viruses. I wouldn't be confident that there were no microbes however. I don't know enough about chemistry to say if they could determine there were no non living dangers in the air.

At first given the mapping technology and Fifield's 'Pups' it would seem unlikely Fifield and Millburn would get lost. However, not only was Fifield panicked by the discovery there are a few factors that contributed to them losing their way. When Janek contacts them he states "between the static electricity and the wind speed were, well..." it is possible that the static electricity Janek mentions has affected the mapping technology. This coupled with Fifield's observation that "it all looks the same.."and that he may be disorientated due to his drug taking, it is plausible Millburn and him managed to get lost with all that.

tl;dr He got stoned, disoriented and the technology he relies on to make the maps work was fucked up from being out of contact with the ship.

Humans were created by ENKI and his sister. ENKI'S brother ENLIL despise humans which lead ENLIL to wipe out humans (the great flood). Another thing jews are related to ENLIL. Jews say theyre gods chosen people which they call non-jews "GOYS" and say they were meant to serve jews
The Torah is based on ENLIL.

I think they threw this in to give some kind of timeline for how long the Engineers have been manipulating humanity.

They made the movie pretty vague so the audience could fill in the blanks. I think it was an attempt to have the movie be more mysterious but I just kinda felt stupid. I think they didn't give enough information to go off. It would have worked if they had given us some more info to go off but no. Lost guy ruins it.

The only thing left PURPOSELY vague (for the sequels), is why the Engineers want to destroy humans. Everything else made sense. Unlike that piece of shit show Lost.

I hope they explain it well. I'm a very big alien (collect anything alien related) but I'm not sure how I feel about Prometheus. If I separate it from alien it's a decent movie. It looks beautiful, great soundtrack and interesting story but it felt out of place with alien. Hopefully in the sequel it will all come together.

this guy >>62805109 is right. /tv/ cares more about stupid memes than movies.

I know, man. I'm saying that /tv/ is disliking the movie and basing that on arguments from this video. because they care more about memes than content.

except the RLM video does make legitimate criticisms. the whole concept behind that video brings up a legitimate point. and yeah, obviously it's done in a comedic fashion, no fucking shit.

which words and phrases do you not like when people them then? what, i sould say unwhite liquid instead of black goo because RLM used the latter term?

>is a direct quote from the video. word for word.

well yeah he is pretty obviously quoting that video, einstein. the guy i was replying to was implying that people took RLM's criticisms of the film and regurgitated them verbatim while trying to pass them off as their own.

You know how the Engineers gave humans directions to a certain planet, but when humans arrived they found it was some kind of biological weapons storage area?

At some point in the past the Engineers decided they no longer wanted to meet with a developed form of humanity, they now wanted to murder them all. It went wrong, killing all of the Engineers apart from Prometheus-san. When the humans woke him up he simply continued his mission to destroy all humanity.
