      Utterly stupid sacrifice. Captain and crew are idiots. Dumbest Captain ever. No Captain of a ship would be that stupid 😅. Sacrifice an Interstellar ship on the advice of an hysterical women? Not tactically sound or reasonable given the circumstances. If a corporation can fund a ship that can travel to the stars. Imagine what governments can do? What hope would one ship have against a military from all the space faring countries from earth? The ship would have been met with an armada light years from earth. A type 2 civilization armada. No hope of it winning. Say it defeats that armada. A more advance Armada will meet it the next time. For the scientist and military strategist will have accessed it strength and weaknesses. And will come with a more advance ships. This pattern will just repeat until it is defeated. Now the defenders are just as strong as you. Now earth will be on the attack. Remember a type 2 civilization like in this film is damn near impossible to defeat.

      It's symbolic of the crew surrendering to their fate, not as a consequence of external, divine forces, but their own decisions and circumstances.
      They could avoid the collision by maneuvering. They take their hands off the controls to show they are committed to their course of action, and won't avoid the collision, and their subsequent deaths, because it is a necessary consequence of their choices.

      He had other lines... like before the mission briefing the pilots are speculating about what the job is. It's important because it tells us what kind of crew we're dealing with, the type who sign up for a multi year mission without knowing what the job actually is, only what it pays. This explains their lack of caution and poor attitude to doing things properly.

    This wasn't a perfect film, but I get what he was trying to do. He should have continued the idea with the sequels, instead of doing covenant. For this story to grow, it needs to move beyond the xenomorph, quite frankly. Delving into the whole engineer civilization and the larger questions would be much cooler. But it would take an overall long-term vision.

      Check out the cut content from Prometheus that never made it to theatre. As well as the stuff cut from the scripts. This film had the potential to being legendary and I think that it deserves a re-make with all of the cut content added back in.

      On the contrary it was overhyped by the marketing department. Don't forget all of those online videos and commercials showing us how Weyland got the crew in the ship, not to mention how the company sold us the David model line. Fast foward to teh time of release and everyone knew that the movie was really bad. Great visuals and music but the plot itself and most of the characters were a waste of screen time.
      And for the record I DO LIKE the film, but it is by no means an underrated movie nor a good alien prequel.

    • @officialrvelasco
      @officialrvelasco 5 лет назад +1

      Fury161 oh ok didn’t know that. Anyways in my opinion I found it very interesting movie. It should’ve expanded until revealing the real origin of the Aliens. But Covenant was such a disappointment. It felt very rushed. The only reason I felt like it was underrated is because from what I know, Ridley had to change the sequel based on people not liking Prometheus.

    • @PointReflex
      @PointReflex 5 лет назад

      @@officialrvelasco I understand your point. But most people didn't liked prometheus because instead of being a direct prequel to Alien, it was a spin-off-ish thing. Not to mention that the 'space truckers' of the Nostromo were more competent and professional than the scientists of the Prometheus.
      What Ridley did in Covenant was the final nail in the coffin. Ugly, ugly film.

    • @jimbobeire
      @jimbobeire 4 года назад +2

      @@PointReflex It's not surprising that the crew of the _Nostromo_ were more competent though. They were only interested in getting home. There was nobody like Shaw with a religious belief that what was in there was their creator that had _invited_ them to come, and nobody like Weyland, desperate to get answers before he kicked the bucket.
      Shaw is similar to Ripley as far as courage and toughness goes, but Ripley was cautious and rational.
      Ripley would have looked at those cave paintings, realised they were painted by tribal humans witnessing an invitation of their own time, not an invitation left by Engineers for future humans. She would have been curious as to whether the trips were taking tribal humans away and for what purpose. She would not have considered it a good idea to just land, and roll right in as if there was a pleasant welcome for the Prodigal Son.
      Also, the crew of the _Nostromo_ were hired in a normal fashion, and had been with the company a long time, and knew how to work together.
      The crew of the _Prometheus_ was a "Ship of Fools". They signed up for a mission knowing nothing but the pay, and got their first briefing 28 months after they'd launched. Shaw is a fanatic who is 100% certain of her conclusions, based on cherry picked evidence, because of what she 'chooses to believe' . Holloway is a moron, Weyland is dying, desperate and ruthless. David and Ford are working Weylands agenda while Shaw doesn't keep control of the mission.
      Ripley took command when Dallas died, and she made good decisions, and kept everyone focussed on one agenda.
      They only had one crew member working to a different agenda of course, Ash.
      Covenant was even more stupid, I agree.
