re: #237 Jack Burton

What killed that movie for me, other than the 140+ year old cars still working, was there was no real explanation of the political structure of Earth beyond Elysium and Planet Ghetto. I’m not sure there was meant to be one beyond that which is completely unrealistic and ruins it for me.

No explanation for how these miracle med beds were supposed to function (Nanites? Star Trek Tech? What?) or how they could/couldn’t be able to be used for everyone.

The visuals were beautiful and I enjoyed it, but walked away with almost as many questions as Prometheus. I believe I was just over thinking it though.

Prometheus wasn’t bad. The main question I had was why the Engineers had decided some 2000 years ago to wipe us out? Was mankind one of their little experiments gone wrong? Maybe just for shits and giggles?

I suppose that question would be answered in a sequel, which Prometheus is set up for.
