Ok! But no revealing real names to the rest of these ruffians. Or use dummy accounts.

Prometheus was GREAT. It just wasn’t an “Alien” movie. Or, rather, wasn’t “Alieny” enough.

As an epic, intelligent interstellar sci-fi horror flick, it was fucking awesome. I’m pretty sure I like it more than every Alien movie aside from the original.

Certainly makes Avatar look like a goddamn romp through bullshit dumbass fuckland.

Wait so you prefer the c section machine just randomly appear w no explanation Rob?

I hate when movies introduce you to a character and then sure enough someone talks to them omg saw that coming a mile away!

I prefer no stupid contrived plot device that's what I expect from Aliens

if you say so. I thought that scene was pretty awesome.

You’re making a stand against fucking foreshadowing?

Sometimes you take your self-appointed “instigator” role too seriously.

“Man I hate it when something is put into a story to move the plot forward. It totally ruined literally every book, play, movie and television show in the history of the world for me.”

haha exactly. Rob, give us a list of great movies that don't earlier show you the thing that will be used later in the movie as a major plot point.

Godfather
Fifth Element
Les Enfants du Paradis
Aguirre Wrath of God
Goodfellas
Pootie Tang


the list is long fellas. Prometheus SUX. there is no escape from it

so what are the major plot things that happen in those movies that have absolutely NO foreshadowing?

not talking about foreshadowing. Talking about contrived plotting. two different things. Prometheus is full of stupid characters, who are supposed to be highly expert exobiologists and scientists, who follow NO scientific protocol, who touch gooey shit with their bare hands like fucking 6th graders in science class, who fail to take any normal, standard, scientific precautions, and that stupid fucking c-section machine was so fucking DUMB. so fucking DUMB> and the main plot contrivance of that stupid fucking totemic pale white man creating all of humanity? fucking jesus you guys really like that shit? You guys really bought into that fucking unequivocal nonsense? that movie was one big fuck you to anyone with any intelligence, and a giant fuck you to Giger and to any Alien fans and fuck that shit movie. what a stupid fucking retread piece of TRASH.

You guys can watch The English Patient with J. Peterman all you want, I am gonna go hang with Elaine Benes and watch something funny....

ok.

Fuck that movie and fuck you!

That was harsh, sorry. But there’s foreshadowing all over Godfather. In every movie.

What you’re REALLY saying is that you don’t like it when it’s obvious and hamfisteed. Plot devices are part of plots. They’re in every plot.

You think the machine in Prometheus is hamfisted, but it woks. That’s the last thing that should ruin that movie for you.

Pfff.

Dude, he clearly dislikes it when something in a story becomes more important to the story later on.

DUH.

How could anyone not be disgusted by that? Things playing roles in things? Fuck that sellout pansy bullshit!

Funny you mention J. Peterman. That cake he innocuously purchased from Queen Vicotia’s wedding or whatever? Elaine later ate it and got diarrhea.

Plot device. GARBAGE!!!

Hahaha the cake! Good point.

I don't care if Rob hates a movie I like but the reasoning is hilarious.

Also Citizen Kane sucks cuz fuck that sled!

Oh, bingo! Ultimate cinematic plot device.

Citizen Kane is shit. You heard it here first.

New rule: Things can only appear in movies, book, plays, etc. during their moments of peak significance, and otherwise must be removed from the story altogether so that peak significance no longer exists.

We’re learning how to make art the Rob way. This is important.

citizen kane is boring AF and you know it
