Chick knows what shes talking about. Maybe more people will accept that the movie makes 0 sense and to not just "accept it for what it is,a great movie" because shes actually made a video stating what we have all been typing.
..my 64 year-old grandmother understood a lot of what took place in the film after her first viewing. So I think it had to have made a little bit of sense.
The thing that bugs me the most is that, people won't understand something very simple.
Then when I tell them "Well see, remember when this happened which led to this, and this, then after they wake him Shaw asks him this and that?"
They'll respond with something like "Yeah, well, Ridley Scott didn't pause the movie and specifically tell me what happened in that scene. Plot hole. Failed movie. Made zero sense."
But then I'm like "Well..of course. That would be a documentary. Every film out there, even stupid ones require atleast a little bit of thinking. It's a story. Sometimes you have to pay attention to one scene in order to understand another. Some are more complex than others, Prometheus being a bit above average. But yeah, if literally every scene was explained to you step-by-step by the man who created the film..it would be a documentary."
And then they respond with something like.."No, you're wrong. You're just a biased apologist. But you're young and your brain isn't fully developed yet, so it's okay.
Idiot"
It's almost as if they want to compete with me. They don't want to understand why something happened in the film, they never wanted to like the film. They want to argue with me, tell me I'm wrong...etc.
Then I get kinda tired, walk away for a while... then a few days or a week later they come back to the thread for the movie they hate that "made zero sense" and say literally, the exact same thing over again.
