PROMETHEUS PLOTHOLES AND IRRITATIONS
***SPOILERS***
1. The dreams sequence. David can watch Shaw's dreams. Amazingly this technology also cuts from scene to scene like a movie camera...Please. No one dreams like that.
2. How did they randomly find the temple so quick? This is an entire planet surface!
3. Why was the landing so soft and easy?
4. Why does Fifield start screaming at Shaw like that? Calm down mate..jeez..And later on with an Alien cobra he is cool as ice.
5. Why does that moron Buddy Holly scientist try and touch the cobra alien? not once....not twice...but 3 TIMES!!!
6. Why on earth would a scientist remove their helmets in a possibly infected temple? I am just a civilian and even I understand the concept of VIRUS CONTAMINATION ON AN ALIEN FRIGGIN PLANET. They then have the cheek to talk about Shaw's strict quarantine fail-safe procedures...please
7. What does this Black Goo do exactly? Accelerate worm growth? Infect crew members? Cause pregnancies? Create life? Pick one and stick to it please
8. Why does Ford straight away start giving the head electricity for kicks? Do they not have procedures? What is this fun with Frankenstein?
9. Why does the head explode?
10. Why are the medical staff so damn careless with a possibly disease ridden and bacteria infested decapitated head? I swear they didn’t even wear plastic gloves. At one point I thought they were going to lick it like Hanson the caretaker from Scary Movie 2...

11. How did Shaw know the Jockey was heading to Earth to destroy it? Pretty big assumption from a couple of punches thrown here and there..no she didn't see the starmap that was afterwards...
12. How does David know the Space Jockey is heading to kill Shaw on the Medical Bay? He is grounded on the floor...
13. How does Shaw know her baby will attack the Jockey?
14. Shaw has this 'baby' but fails to mention the horrific and super extraordinary situation she had just been through.
''oh hey guys, ha ha, nearly forgot. FYI, you won't believe what just happened to me on the way here''....''i just gave birth to an alien..''
''yeah, i know CRAZY right, considering i had sex only 10 BLOODY HRS AGO!!''
15. -The whole Vickers' Star Wars 'Father' line...
16. -The 'bet' between the co-pilots was cringeworthy
17. HUGE ONE…How the hell does Shaw walk after abdominal surgery? If abdominal muscle is cut you can NOT walk, the muscle needs to be sewn back…But no, a few staples and she is good to go…
18. Why does the tentacle creature have tentacles from the evil Planet X?
19. Why do the space jockeys allow any old tramp to walk in an use their security hologram systems?
20. Why does the space jockey want to kill…You’d think an advanced race would be a little civilized?
21. What was the point of Guy Pearce as Weyland? Why was he even there? So he just assumed this temple would contain a fountain of youth…..right….I guess he ‘chose to believe’ too…
22. Why does Shaw "choose to believe"? And why does she have that same Dad and subplot from the movie "Contact" (except this time it was Ebola, not a heart attack)
23. (Thanks to Stringer) Why does captain of a ship Janek and project manager Vickers, in charge of the well-being of the crew, leave two crew members unobserved in an alien cave while they have sex, with little regard for their safety?
24. Why does Lindelof still have a career after this many failures?
25. What was with the little flute and Fisher Price squishy buttons?

Honestly there are so many more I can’t even write them all…But this movie has more plot-holes than the Iraqi Navy
