Another interesting excerpt from that linked comment article regarding the nature of the black goo:
quote:
When ingested by a being with pure intentions and with self sacrifice, the goo creates life, as we see at the start of the film (and the solemn face in the chamber represents).
However we also see the mural of the Xenomorph queen in the chamber, obviously a warning that if the goo is used improperly, then it will create something who's sole purpose is to end life.

Oh and not only that but HOW IN THE HELL DOES THE CAPTAIN KNOW ITS A WEAPONS FACILITY?
He's been inside the place for ten minutes. That's it. And one of his crew men goes nuts (which is never explained by the way) and all of the sudden he is an expert on alien logistics and weapons manufacturing?

Watchmen was fricking Gone with the Wind compared to this crap.
Don't ever insult Watchmen like that again.

Lacour - we get it, you didn't like the movie. Please exit stage left.
We don't need 10 more posts saying you thought it sucked.

isn't it mentioned in the movie Alien, that the xenomorphs were created as biological weapons?
Posted on 6/10/12 at 6:10 pm to Jwodie
Aww, did I hurt your little feelings?
Why don't you answer ANY of my questions?

Hell, at least Avatar had a story.
it may have ripped off a bunch of other stories, but by god it had one at least.
One that freaking made sense.

No, you didn't but your incessant dumping on the movie is tiresome. And why would I waste time answering questions for someone who has proclaimed their dire hate for the movie over and over?

Code for "I don't have any fricking answers but by god I like this movie because Ridley Scott made it."

I don't really disagree with much of what you're saying but it's a little over the top at this point. Don't ruin the thread.

I'm not trying to ruin the thread.
Slow asked me what I didn't like.
I told.
No one is answering any questions.

Why does no one seem to care that the girl with the dragon tattoo is freaking covered in blood and not wondering what the hell is going on and WHY SHE'S GOT A DAMN C-SECTION INCISION?
Another question is why does Fassbender and whomever else knew she was pregnant with an alien life form not take a minute to say "Hey! What happened to your alien fetus?"
No one has any questions about the giant squid alien in the medical room?

I thought they should have explored the planet a little more. They stopped at the first thing they saw and made no effort to see if there was any other signs of habitation on the planet.

Also, this planet is just that - a planet - similar in size to earth. How did they just happen to stumble upon the alien facility?
That's pretty good navigating.

The android states that there are many ships on the planet. Which leads me to believe that there were "pyramids" in abundance as well.
Posted on 6/10/12 at 6:52 pm to Fewer Kilometers
Ok. That's fine. I know there are other ships as the took off in one. And you can see another pyramid when they land.
But just one.
As I said, this place is an entire planet. Only two pyramids are visible.
This is being extremely picky at this point, but it's just another "ok . . " point.

Oh and when the two scientists get killed . . .
So these guys are on an alien world and they encounter an alien species that looks like a freaking pissed off albino snake.
The damn thing hisses at them. Twice. And bristles, TELLING them, "hey, I'm about to frick you up."
So what do they do? They are all happy and joking and giddy, even though a moment ago they were freaking out about encountering lifeforms and went in the opposite direction when the captain told them about it. So we try to pet the pissed off alien.
Brilliant
But hey, this is such an intelligent movie, right? With so many underlying themes that you just have to be so smart to appreciate.
