Prometheus is to be avoided.

Many spoilers, but such a vindication: "The 43 Things 'Prometheus' Taught Me (About The Future & Science)".

Yes. After the film, my friend and I were so incensed that we filled out a full A4 page with things that annoyed us, in small handwriting. And half of the reverse side. I'm glad I saw that movie, because though it was the worst film I have ever seen, I got so much entertainment out of criticizing it.

By all means, type that up and post it. I can't get enough Prometheus hate.

Eh, I know this is 6 weeks late, but I have it on my computer now if you're still interested. In the meanwhile: Maddox

Sure. My email is my name at gmail if you'd rather not post it here.

I thought that was my particular quirk, I'm glad I'm not alone.

Agreed. The way I put it (and have seen similar comments):

I have made a new rule for my own mental health that I must check imdb to see if any of the Lost creators were majorly involved in anything I am considering watching. If they are, I won't pay money to watch that film.

I will not rule out a friend's invitation to watch it on their Netflix account (for example). Upcoming Star Trek and Cloverfield 2 are on my list.
