The Last Duel (Scott, 2021)...

[StuSmallz]

Prometheus wasn't perfect, but for me it def fell into a category I call "suddenly audiences are upset at basic things that happen in every movie but blaming this movie as if it doesn't happen in every movie ever".

"Why does that character breathe that way?" So weird.
"Why didn't character say he may be infected with something?" Why didn't they quarantine in the first Alien?

While I have to repeat that I still don't feel that plot holes as a make-or-break issue when it comes to movies, and the ones that exist in Prometheus aren't the main reason why I didn't like it (since that would be the fact that it's a pretentious, dead end of a "shaggy God" story that coasts off of a vague association with a classic series that didn't need a half-assed origin movie in the first place), I also have to note that the comparison to the original film doesn't hold water, since...

Ripley did want them to quarantine according to procedure, and the only reason why they didn't is because Ash disobeyed her due to his secret orders from Weyland-Yutani...



...which is something Ripley confronts him about. Also, Captain Dallas later says that they're all going to have to go into quarantine anyway when the Nostromo gets back to home base, and they jettison Kane's body after the chestburster pops out of it, reducing the amount of Xenomorph contamination still left on the ship, so the movie's quite consistent and believable in that regard.
