I guess if you are used to Star Trek next generation and people acting like adults its harder to wacth Prometheus. Also I hate religion so that left a foul stench in the room for me. It took a lot of stuff from alien as well. i guess if your not christian or were not raised christian youd miss all the jesus inuendo.

Well, Star Trek is probably the most logically-consistent future-setting sci-fi franchise there is. In terms of the characters acting like adults in a sci-fi franchise, Star Trek is the top of the line. You aren't going to get any better than that without going into a different genre.

It is a prequel to "Alien", and it's directed by the same guy (Ridley Scott), so it is expected that it would take a lot of stuff from it.

In terms of religion, I can't say that I have a problem with Prometheus making references to it. In fact, I'm somewhat glad it did, as I have not seen any sci-fi franchises address the issue much at all in their respective settings. I've always wondered why fictional depictions of the future never address where religion stands in them, even though over 70% of the world today, believes in one. I guess there's no way to do it without offending people. In Prometheus, (aside from having the main character be a Christian) it was portrayed as something that some people choose to believe in, which is more or less how its always been. That being said, all that Jesus innuendo revolved only around the main character, and it had nothing to do with anything besides establishing her character. If you hate religion, it can go a long way to enjoying the movie by not personalizing a fictional character's choice for having one.

An American Haunting.

As a native of Clarksville, Tennessee, just down the road from the old Bell farmstead, I grew up with stories of the Bell Witch. I don't believe any of that stuff, but it has the potential to inspire a very good movie. This piece of trash is nothing of the sort.

I like Star Trek Voyager too cause they use "Q" a lot.

Star Trek always has lots of episodes about "religion/spirituality" but they call it superstition a lot of times and they talk about it as pas-tense and primitive as something the world used to believe in but have evolved from.

I was a fan as a teen years back for ST:NG. Cause netflix added it to the streaming library I watched a few of the episodes I could recall liking from way back when. Hair styles and SFX aside, I was impressed that it held up quite well even now, writing and acting. Stuff like thecomputer 'multi touch' and ipad-esque elements even. No holodeck yet but we're probably getting close.

Most Adam Sandler except for the Wedding Singer. I liked all the music and the references to the 80's but Sandler still made me want to puke. :puke:
