I do love Prometheus
But this is a thread about sci-fi and not comedy, so it doesn't get in
But, if you were to watch Forbidden Planet expecting Leslie Nielsen to be funny, that's a perfect pairing with Prometheus

so you're just leaving Prometheus off the list? the entire list is invalid

if he's leaving off aliens, then why would he respect a lesser film like prometheus?

Aliens was a decent stand-alone film, but more like The Magnificent Seven than the original Alien….

i was only commenting from what seemed like your view on the franchise. prometheus < aliens, ergo, why would prometheus be listed?

Prometheus was crap. Dixi (not chicks).

aliens was awful
prometheus is the best alien movie so far. the original alien movies are just mediocre action movies in space

that's true.
prometheus was more of a challenging think-piece.
much like Salò

Blade runner was garbage

It was quite demanding intellectually, true.

It wasn't demanding. It was just tedious. Certainly the imagery was good. And there were some very good performances.
Rutger Hauer
Ford
Daryl Hannah
But overall I hated it. I share your opinion on everything else.
Well maybe one other thing , I have more love for Aliens. I think it's an absolute classic.
As is the first. Two completely different films but both perfect.

We will agree to differ. I loved the way the city was filmed, and I thought Rutger Hauer's performance was superb. Also liked the ongoing doubt about whether Ford was himself a replicant…..

He was a Replicant

Only in the book, and in the director's cut, I think.

Unless my memory has seriously eroded to the point where I should be alarmed, he was a human in the book, not a replicant.

dbentley666 — 1 week ago(March 22, 2026 03:04 PM)

You're right. In the Philip K. Dick story (Do Androids Dream…) he is human. I think Ridley Scott (interestingly) muddied the waters by implying that Deckard was a replicant. Harrison Ford (also interestingly) believed that Deckard was human, though Ford's performance was quite automaton-like.
