No contest there Tipp.
My point was that while watching M2M the other night the entire last 1/3 of it was like watching Prometheus in deja vu (or vice/versa). Lots of the same concepts and very similar images. Very surprised that I didn't see more mention of the similarities when Prometheus was out in the theaters.
Just saw it and thought it was something else. The plot wasn't perfect but the visuals were fricken stunning. The design of everything was breathtaking- the space suits, the ship, the helmet the Engineer wore.
Noomi Rapace is a little badass.
Really wish I'd been able to see it in 3D.
I saw it in IMAX 3D when it came out, it was spectacular.Quote:

The only 2 things that bothered me were the naive scientists that were in such a huge hurry to engage a life form that they knew nothing about. Also the idiot that thinks some alien creature that looks like a king cobra sticking up out of a black muck looks cute and reaches out to shake its hand was astoundingly stupid ( I was glad he got killed). Those quibbles aside I think I will buy the Bluray for my collection and watch it again. Edited. I really need to quit posting when I am about to fall asleep :)
David actually has two soles, bipedally speaking, just like us really peoples. Come to think of it, he probably has two souls as well - what with his back-up hardwiring and all.
