Re: Prometheus Sequel : Paradise?
Yah, i just don't really see holes in the story. There are unanswered questions, but that was all done on purpose. And if you look back at Alien, it was very very similar. They did not reveal that much about what the alien's were or reveal much about the crashed space jockey. There is also some cheesy dialogue as well. But im not going to try and convince anyone to like Prometheus or Alien or any movie. Its up to them to decide.
Yep, I agree. I believe, the "seriousness" or tone/mood of movies such as Prometheus open the door for more critical reviews. My opinion or argument was that Prometheus does not have plot holes to discuss. (But that doesn't mean I think the film is perfect.)
Well technically (bear with me here) it is. Its a movie about extra-dimensional beings that are so powerful and beyond our comprehension that we see them as deities. In what most consider a throw away line, Thor explains to Jane that his world and the 9(?) realms are based in science, not magic. Granted, its a weak explanation, but I think that's also a reflection of its seriousness/tone.
We're definitely on the same page here.
