At first I was a bit disappointed too, and not thinking much on it, but then I sat down and thought about it, and the more I thought about it, the more I wanted to break stuff around me. What annoyed me the most in the end wasn't that the construction of the whole thing was void and the characters really lame, it's that even as a basic horror/atmosphere movie, it just doesn't work. I mean I'm a wuss, and I wasn't even afraid or even just a little stressed out during the whole thing! Whereas the very first opening shot of Alien makes me practically piss my pants in fear -- and it's not a nostalgia thing, I waited very long to actually see the first Alien, I only saw it when I was around 20! Prometheus on the other hand is extremely predictable, and you don't root for any of the characters because none of them is relatable, so you just don't give a fuck when they die. Sometimes you just wish they would die as soon as possible, like the geologist and the biologist who are, and I'll never stress this enough, complete morons.
Also : Why The Fuck are our "makers" are body-builded Voldemorts ?
I dunno, this is completely dumb too; if we have the same DNA, we should LOOK LIKE THE FUCKERS. IT'S BASIC SCIENCE STUFF YOU GUYS. EVEN I KNOW THIS. Re: about the snake: from what other people gathered, the snake thing came from the worms that transformed inside the black goo. I don't know about the symbolics of it and I hope there isn't any, because it would bring a whole new level of stupid to something that is already very offensive to my intellect.
