Prometheus treats "worldbuilding" the way a toddler treats a fruit bowl — enthusiastically, briefly, then forgotten.

If exposition were a contact sport, Prometheus would be banned for life.

Prometheus is what happens when a writers' room confuses "ambiguous" with "didn't finish the draft".

The science in Prometheus has the same relationship to physics that I have to going to the gym: aspirational.

Unpopular opinion: Prometheus is the most overrated film of the decade

Just got out of Prometheus and I'm convinced critics are being paid in residuals. Two genuinely good scenes do not make a film. Convince me otherwise.

Hot Take: Prometheus's third act ruined what could have been a masterpiece

Rewatched Prometheus last night and noticed even more plot holes than the first time. The motivations don't track at all once you stop and think about act two.

[Spoilers] Can we discuss that absolutely baffling ending in Prometheus?

Director clearly thought Prometheus was deeper than it is. There's a difference between ambiguous and unfinished, and this leans hard into the second.
